...wait, that's how bastiodon's eyes work? only the black oval part is its eye? I thought the black part was just its iris/pupil and and the yellowish part around it was its sclera

wtf I hate Bastiodon now.

More HP, Recover, Pure Steel Type, Filter, a good spammable STAB, Rapid Spin.

>>29367918
I think its sclera is still yellow and the black dots are pupils, they just work slightly differently in a 3D model when its head is tilting upwards.

Nah, it's just inconsistency.
Like how they've shown Litten's pupils close instead of its actual eyelids

Ability: Vital Guard
>All 4x weakness instead become 1x

Give it Power Trick, Power Split or Foul Play

Reliable recovery?
Right now it's completely outclassed by Heatran.

>Gale Wings
Done. It's AG tier.

Give him a gimmick ability, something like priority for defensive moves, make him a Shuckle tier wall.

>>29367743
You can't fix something with no upper teeth

Ability: The Greatest Wall

When the pokemon with this ability uses status moves, no opponents can attack this turn.

Only when the pokemon with this ability attacks can the opponent attack.

120 atk
120 speed
pseudo moveset

Increase its hp by 20 points and give it battle armor for an ability and access to cosmic power.

Also causes Lombre and Ludicolo to return to its pokeball.

>>29369982
sounds like showderp's favorite mon

>>29367743
take 30 out of both defences and put in HP so its actually reasonably bulky rather than being carbink.

Battle armor so it can be an appropriate meme wall that you can't break once it starts buffing.
Give it amnesia.
Lose the rock typing.
