NOOO!!!
I-its based on a Mexican thief fags BTFO
I'm actually pretty sad that Alolan Raticate doesn't have big bushy mustache-looking whiskers and is just fatter.
>>28309531
This.
I was really hoping it would look edgy
Oh this fat bastard is 100% going on my team
Despite being Dark-type, it actually looks less menacing than regular Raticate.
Fucking racism, Gamefreak
Mexico is the fattest country on the world so they make Alolan raticate a fatass
>>28309485
every time I look at this thing I think
>"PINCH NY CHUBBY CHEEKS!"
>"PINCH MY CHUBBY CHEEEEEEEEKS!"
I think it's my brain remembering something but not knowing exactly what
>This is the boss
>It eats ALL the food the Alolan Rattatas bring and becomes a fat fuck
The Gluttony ability makes sense.
>>28309621
Doesn't have the lovely movements regular Raticate has either. It's completely inferior and just stands there like a boring retard
>>28309621
>>28309562

The only thing the Alolan eradicates is my heart

Wasted opportunity
>>28309485
I love it i wanna snuggle it

He's stuffed all the delegates in his mouth
>>28309776
>Eats a lot. Chefs bring it with them for its taste.
I guess I'm naming mine Remy.
>>28309847
There's always Hidden Abilities.
What's the problem?
>>28309485
THEY FUCKING RUINED IT
Fat Tony
>HUSTLE ALWAYS CHANGES ON EVO, DUDE PATTERNS LMAO
LOL
>>28309485
>I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse
>>28309485
actually not disappointed. Raticate never was that good anyway.
The new alolan dragonite better not disappoint, like if it spins off into a more dragonair-esque pokemon.
>>28309485
When bae nuts in your mouth and you're trying not to spit.
>>28310408
>The new alolan dragonite
It being fatter than regular Raticate pretty much confirms that it's going to be slower. Fuck man, if it doesn't at least get Sucker Punch and/or Hone Claws, this thing will actually be WORSE than regular Raticate.
YEES
>>28309524
>>28309531
>>28309639
Maybe they had a specific Mexican in mind?
>>28309920
I was planning on naming mine Marlon.
Or just Colonel Kurtz.
>>28309920
Remy wasn't fat though.
>>28310680
>Colonel Kurtz
that one sounds funnier, go with that
>>28310765
I think I might.

NO MY FUCKING DAN BACKSLIDE RAT
HE WAS SUPPOSED TO REPLACE THOSE ANTHROSHIT STARTERS FOR ME
WHY IS IT FAAAAAT
>>28309485
I WASH MYSELF WITH A RAG ON A STICK
>>28310408
>Alolan dragonite
anon...
When it does happen, it's going to be disappointing
>>28309485
He looks like Jontron.
>>28309485
hope this gets cheek pouch as a hidden ability or something so I can make meme starf berry recycle sets with it.
>>28311527
ECH
>>28310408
>yfw Alolan Dratini/Dragonair are orange
>Alolan Dragonite is blue
>>28309531
This. I guess this one passes, but Alolan Rattata got me really excited about the possibilities.
>>28309485
So he is pretty much confirmed to be slower than usual. So much for that offensive upgrade.
>>28309920

>one version has a mafia boss pokemon

>one of them people are saying resembles a Mexican

Holy shit, either they knew the whole time or they saw the reaction and rolled with it hard
>>28309485
Dropped the ball
>>28310375
Now I love it and I can't live without him.
>>28310375
No, this is not the godfather Raticate i wanted. Hes not a crime boss, hes just fat...
You know the kicker? Looking at the trailer it has more HP than regular Raticate. The added Dark typing was only good for offense but they made it bulky instead.
>>28312395
Except raticate completely dropped the Mexican theme.
>>28309485
KIKO DEL CHAVO DEL OCHO
>>28312777
Pinche naco, wey.
He shouldn't be standing up in his art and the game.
He should be on his back, like Snorlax, scratching his belly with one paw
>>28309847
cheek pouch was a missed opportunity but thick fat wouldn't have really worked. it's an expandable cheek not fat, and by the very nature of their metabolism a rat can't really get fat, if they do they most often develop fatty tumors almost immediately.
>>28309524
>>28309639
it was never mexican, you do realize that, right?
>>28312896
If there was a white patch near the eyes, like a reverse raccoon, I would be more convinced.
>>28309485
>no Guts
fuck this
>>28313147
i would rather miss than lose HP per turn
>>28309485i love it
>>28313367
Enjoy your shitty attack stat
I shall name it Fat Tony.
>>28309485
So now it's going to be called Hamstercate?
>>28309485They were taking all of the natives food so they elected Gumshoos to force them out of thier habitat.Trump-mon deniers BTFO
>>28310408
>Raticate never was that good anyway.
Fuck you man, that's my pokebro.
I honestly thought they wouldn't even touch him, but to have Raticate ruined like this is very disappointing
>>28309485
I hope it's at least bulkier than normal Raticate. Not having Guts is shitty
>>28309485

>>28313147
Hustle is stronger than Guts (80% of the time). Guts Raticate has to carry an item specifically to activate its 50% damage boost (and hurt itself). Hustle Raticate can run Choice Band, Choice Scarf or Life Orb to get more out of its shit.
For whatever it's worth, because of its new STAB and Hustle, Alolan Raticate will have the strongest Sucker Punch in the entire game when fitted with an item, unless its Attack goes even lower than its current dogshit base 81. Shit, WITHOUT an item, it matches up almost evenly to Mega Absol's.
But it's just equal in power to Brave Bird from Talonflame, is resisted by more shit and will have to fall back on a 97 base speed otherwise, so it's nothing game-changing.
>>28314615
Nigga, regular Raticate still exists. Just not in Alola. You can import a normal Rattata if you must have one in your playthrough.
Alolan forms means you have two distinct options for your bro, now. Do you know how many people get to have two different versions of their favorite Pokemon, with different looks, different typings, even abilities or movesets?
I think you should give the fat faggot a chance.
We got any decent fat art of this chubbo yet?
This thing looks like fucking SHIT.
They had ONE chance to redeem Raticate status as a joke and they do this. FUCK YOU GAME FREAK.
>>28310375
>the godfatter
>>28316185
They have successfully revived the joke for another round of laughs motherfucker
>>28309485
Literally. A. Fat. Spic.
A fucking dirty fat spic mixed with Ratatouille's movie.
>>28309776
>mfw I didn't get the pun until just now
>literally 20 years after originally hearing the name
>>28316319
Which makes perfect sense as a counterpart to Gumshoos.
I love Faticate. He's going on my team.
>>28309485
quico quico ra ra raaaaaa
>>28317205
ahora si te descalabro los cachetes

PERFECT
>>28309847
I'm incredibly salty its ability isn't Cheek Pouch.
>>28317205
Acusalo con tu mama kiko
>>28312395
>>one of them people are saying resembles a Mexican
Nobody would ever think that were it not for the Trumpgoos neo-meme in the first place.
I always thought raticate looked p cool, but was weak as fuck. Now theres a dumb looking strong version. God fucking why gamefreak.
>>28317205
Acusalo con tu entrenador, Raticate!
>>28312395
iirc there was a rat infestation in Hawaii so they brought a couple of mongoose to kill them all. Now they are everywhwere. Is that poetic justice?
>>28309485
>steven universe nose
Cant wait to find out that Raticate is trans, and how oppressed it is.
>>28316708

Aren't you forgetting Yveltal's Sucker Punch?

>hustle
Gross.
Guts is better in every way.
>>28319066
>it missed!
>>28309485
Doesn't look any worse than regular raticate
>still never going to ever use it :^)
>>28313367
>i would rather miss than lose HP per turn
If you miss you're going to take more damage from the opponent.
Missing is the worst thing that can happen in a battle.
I actually like it.
>>28312748
there was no Mexican theme you fucking faggot
>>28309485
Its way cuter then regular raticate
A shame Faticate isnt dark/poison
>>28316277
>Godfatter

Whelp I know what I'm calling my A-Ratta now.
>>28309524
Design a better Raticate, faggot. I'll wait.

Sick art there dude. I like the new form, kinda disappointed it doesn't have the mustache but it's ok.
>>28309485
THE DELEGATES DAHNALD
There's no way I can use a pokemon that looks like it's in constant physical discomfort
>>28309847
Cheek Pouch is crap
Gluttony might be buffed to steal all consumables.
Imagine fuckinv over Xerneas or Hawluchas with Quick Attack.
>>28322955
That sounds like you wanted to say Pickup because that has very little to do with what Gluttony is about. And Magician is already what you actually wanted.
>>28309485
I almost never bitches about pokemon designs but my god this is awful, also the typing (dark/normal) wtf, thats like the worst typing ever, tied with the likes of grass/bug and ice/steel, and if the stats remain the same as regukar raticate then we may have a contender for the lowest of PU ever
I like that he's fat. It makes sense considering the effect rats have had on Hawaii.
They just eat fucking everything because of a lack of natural predators.
