Considering Drapion doesn't do shit, I'd say no.

>>29152832
Drapion's bulk is mostly physical, and Alolan Muk looks to me like it will have even higher attack than normal Muk, which already outpowers Drapion.

>>29152824
>psychic-type counter
Why would we need that? Psychic is among the worst types in the game currently.

>>29152824
It's a fairy counter. Many fairies have psychic coverage, which stops poison bros from actually doing anything.

So is salandit, with it's ability to fuck klefk and mawhile.

>>29152957
What's the point of Salandit's ability when it can just use a STAB fire move on steels anyways?

>>29152974
>BST: 30

>>29152974
Heatran. It can enter with an Air Ballon and land an 100% guaranteed Toxic on it.

>>29152957
I really hope Salandit's ability lets it use any poison move on Steels for Neutral/SE damage.

>>29152996
90% guaranteed. Toxic can miss.

>>29153019
Toxic can't miss when used by poison-types anymore.

>>29153000
That's not what it does at all.

>>29153031
Huh, you're right. Learn something new everyday. My b.

>>29153000
No, Corrosion only applies to the poisoned status.

>>29152974

Because if it learns Toxic Spikes, it can be a great lead.

>>29153039
>>29153078
We're certain of this? Steel types will still be immune to poison type moves? That's super gay

>>29153139
Go to the sun and moon website and click on Salandit. Read Corrosion's description at the bottom

>>29153078
>Literally in his reveal trailer uses TOXIC on a steel type.

>>29152974
Fairy resists fire, doesn't it?

>>29153436
no

>>29153443
Other way around?

>>29152904
Drapion can run AssVest. Muk doesn't have a good recovery move either.

>>29153461
yee

>>29153411
... do you know what Toxic does? IT INFLICTS THE POISONED STATUS

>>29153472
>Drapion can run AssVest
So can Alolan Muk?
I didn't realise you couldn't hold an item as an Alolan varient.

Not really, lo reuninclus focus blast is a bitch,

Mega Alakazam focus blast is another.

Mega Gardevoir hypervoice is not a joke.

Specs latios is gaining traction, trust me when I say that even spdef mandibuzz has problems taking in the 2 Draco Meteors.

It really doesn't work as a psychic counter, Mew got wisp, Celebi got baton pass and jirachi has trick while being immune to poison and neutral to pursuit.

I doubt this thing can take a lo analytic hydro pump on the switch, Starmie is a bitch bro.

Not counter, just a shaky check.

>>29152957
Except Dark is weak to Fairy. Sure it's risky since that special D bulk and Muk's modest HP will mean it will likely survive and counter with Poison of some kind, but still I would rather take a steel Pokemon to fuck fairies over.

>>29153569
Or you know, just use spdef Talonflame, no fairy has a really good match up vs him, even Azumarrill has to predict a lot around him.

>>29152824
>drapion and skuntank already exist
>wow muk is going to change the game!!

i hate reading this shit

>>29153543
Why would you use a pic of a guy about to get his shit wrecked as a condescending reaction image?

>>29153632
Alolan Muk might be bulkier than those two.

>>29153508
I think he means because Muk usually runs Curse or Bulk Up.

>>29152974
Safe to use toxic no matter what

>>29152996
Really hope Salandit/its evolution have good stats. I want to destroy the metagame with this smug little bastard

>>29153632
>all Pokémon of the same type have the same stats and movepool
I hate reading this shit.

>>29152974
Because people seem to forget that it can poison Poison types too. Mega Venusaur is completely shit on by Salandit.

>Have a shiny Muk
>can't change it into an alolan muk

fuck......

Dark did nothing but make Muk worse actually.

Yeah, it's now immune to Psychics but in exchange it's now neutral to Bug, Fighting, and Fairy attacks it once resisted

>>29154036
It does resist Dark and Ghost so I would say it's a decent tradeoff.
