Is there somewhere I can view the Alolan forms stats and move set?

I guess you could argue he's still technically better than old Marowak but not by enough for him to not be shit.

Reminder that Marowak did see success in 2013 VGC.

I'm still hoping that they secretly buffed bonemerang so it hits non grounded enemies.
>>29772868
Except Alolan Marowak can't have Rock Head.
>>29772868
>can actually make use of Flame charge
This thing is going to be an underrated monster
>>29773493
Hidden ability
>>29773583
It's to slow for that. It need 3 flame charges before it could be a threat .
>>29773220
>tfw Scrafty is your favorite mon but Fairies have prevented it from ever being viable again
>>29773610
You can make it work with Heatran or Skarmory to cover weakneses
>>29773586
Are hidden abilities available in the game sonewhere? Some new mechanic for finding HA Pokemon?
Really, all this thing would need is Shadow Sneak and itd be totally fine. Monstrous attack WITH boosting, great coverage, decent bulk with a good bulky typing with 10-11 resists/immunities, and recoilless Flare Blitz. As is, its not god awful like people think, but Shadow Sneak would solidify it.
>>29773775
but it doesnt learn that move anon. it doesnt learn anything significant
>>29773808
I realize that. That's why I was speaking as if it didn't get it.
Maybe future games/move tutors, but its frustrating seeing potential go to waste.
>>29773250
can't express my rage over diglett line
>>29773610
Scrafty is amazing in doubles and singles is objectively shit.
But how can I get one?
>>29773220
fuck the meta became fucking shit in gen 6. jesus christ.
This guys attack is monstrous with THICC club and Fire/Ghost with STAB Rock-Head Flare-Blitz is arguably better than anything regular Marowak has but his speed is still absolute shit.
Maybe he finds a home in VGC? I don't play doubles but maybe with trick room or speed swap he can work?
>>29774085
A-Marowak has huge VGC potential because of that Flare Blitz with thick club. Nothing broken, but a legitimate threat.
>>29774082
in 2014 it was fine
in 2015 they decided to just let absolutely fucking everything in thinking it would vary things even more when actually it made it so every team was the same four or five Pokemon with maybe one or two different each
2016 was when VGC officially died
>>29774150
Only thing is if they use knock off on him it's all over and does he out speed any knock off user?
>>29774085
Speed Swap Marowak will be fucking crazy desu
>Bonemerang
>Shadow Bone
>Flare Blitz
literally all it needs
>>29774085
with speed investment, A.Marowak +2 speed from flame charge will be able to out speed any mon base 115 and below. which is not bad, but 2 turns to set up is quite a lot to ask for.

Hmmmm actually the more I think about this guy the more I like him. Fire/Ghost is really good offensively, he's gonna be hitting most mons really hard almost nothing is gonna want to switch in on him.
He's very weak to pursuit but other than defensive water types what forces him out? He's weak to knock off but I can't think of a knock off user that would want to switch in on him.
How do you get HA in this game?!?
>>29774368
We don't know yet. It might end up being you have to transfer over an HA mon from an old game or maybe theyre on that island thing
>>29774321
What I love the most is that he keeps most of his Kanto Marowak coverage and more. Brick Break, Earthquake, Stone Edge, all that stuff.
>>29774488
LOST KNOCK OFF. WHAAATTT THE FFFFIUUUCCCCKKKKK
>>29773220
Actually it did jack shit in battle
So defensive rock types, water types, and dragon types are all that could switch in to it.
Looking at pursuit users many of them would not actually want to switch in on him but you'd have to watch out for tyranitar, houndoom, and I guess Krokodile.
Idk with the right team support this guy might actually work.
>>29774722
>tyranitar, houndoom, and I guess Krokodile.
Bonemarang works pretty well on the first two, I'd think.
I'll give you a thick club with a rock head ;)
>>29774817
If you predict the switch in yea, but once they're in you're not gonna get to do anything cause you're so much slower than any of them. I mean if he can tank a hit and hit back with boomerang I guess that's good.
I think you don't even bother with any speed investment on him just full attack and defense.
>>29773220
This picture makes me wonder why anyone would invest time in competitive at all
>>29772868
I know people dont like trick room but when this fucker reaches nearly megamawile power with a thick club and those stab moves he just DEMANDS it
Flare blitz / Rock head / Quake / 85 Ghost is amazing coverage.
