Whether it's by design or viability, it don't matter here.
This thing speaks to me on a spiritual level
Bamboo Face and HUNGRY HOMBRE are pretty amazing.
And of course everyone loves Swole Bug Man.
>>29779042
>>29779074
>And of course everyone loves Swole Bug Man.
To tell the truth, I didn't care for him until I saw him flexing in amie
Nihilego (jellyfish) is pretty cool. They typing doesn't make any sense though.
>best typing
>best name
>best everything
Give me a good moveset for this nigga cause he's getting a permanent slot on my team.
A giant monster crab thing has no right to be this adorable.

>>29779042
This one looks like it could be a ppikmin boss to me
Ultra Beasts look like shit. My opinion of them was negative when they were revealed and I still don't like them.
>>29779146
Damn, the swole bug and origami animations are boss.
And that gargantuan dragon is goofy af, I love it.
>>29779116
Its a crystal jellyfish
>>29779162
Really? I wasn't a fan of them after seeing them at first, but after watching the Refresh/Amie videos I love them. Super fun and full of personality, with some original designs too. I like them more than recent legendaries like Hoopa and Diancie as well.
Buzzwole
He's the main reason I chose Sun instead of Moon.
Thankfully Talonflame got nerfed and his stats aren't completely unusable.
>>29779042
I like the ultra beasts more than a lot of the actual Pokemon this gen
>>29779116
It's described as being like glass. Glass does fit either a Rock or Ground type. As for Poison that comes from being a jellyfish.
Can someone post a pic of all the UBs with their names?
which UB's are version exclusive?
>>29779135
Choice Scarf, Modest/Timid with HP Ice, Dazzling Gleam, Energy Ball and Thunder Bolt. You don't even need Tail Glow, its SpAtk is just that retardedly high.
>>29779042
Guzzlord! He probably won't perform as well as the others in battle, but he's so cuddly! Check out OfficialGuzzlord on Facebook
>>29779344
>Check out OfficialGuzzlord on Facebook
I like Guzzlord but wow
The only one I don't really care for is Necrosma, the others are all 10/10
>>29779332
And it gets higher if you knock something out too
But if a glass cannon though, would probably want to invest in some speed too.
These things are literally the only usable "pokemon" this gen.
>>29779042
Swolebug, copepod lady, origami and YA WIRE BOY are all solid 10/10 designs.
Refresh made me appreciate the guzzling lord.
>>29779444
>ya wire boy
kek
>>29779042
Should be Guzzlord, but mosquito man has the best looking model that makes me adore it.
>>29779042
I have a hard time deciding between the paper swords man one swole mosquito and the big deamon crab
>>29779344
If its torso is 100% mouth, what is up with that zigzag door thing at the back of its mouth? It can't possibly have space to swallow chunks of food that big, unless it's a portal to another dimension.
>>29779042
None, I fucking hate those things.
>>29779821
notice the little teeth inside that cave/mouth. I like to think they work as a blender and turn whatever enters into liquid, which then exits through that zigzag door like it was a drain.
I like the Bamboo Rocket Princess, she's cute.
But she's kind of a big girl, almost as big as Groudon.
Buzzwole.
>Fantastic name

>F L E X
>manages to achieve the alien look without looking too out of place
>will probably not be too overpowered, so I can use it in OU and VGC
This motherfucker is the biggest reason why I am getting Sun.
>>29779821
It's basically a living black hole, since it doesn't produce waste matter, all the items it ingests, from trees and bolders to humans and pokemon all fall in a never ending pit, it's a literal walking void portal.
>>29779908
agreed
>>29779821
>it's a portal to another dimension
>Guzzlord actually has a whole pocket dimension as its stomach
Kinda reminds me of FMA's Gluttony.
>>29779111
Jojo reference?
>>29779966
It must be
I'm honestly surprised the origami one isn't more popular on /vp/, I think it's one of the best designs we've gotten for generations
PHEROMOSA IS CUTE
>>29779908
>manages to achieve the alien look without looking too out of place
That skeeter looks very much outta place here, doesn't keep me from adoring it though
>>29779821
>unless it's a portal to another dimension.
Actually, according to its Pokedex entry, it is.
>metalgreymon
By animation.
i love all the fuckers and hate that some had to be version exclusives.
but if i could only choose one, seeing it in amie really sold me on kartana
Nihilego is perfect.
I like pretty much all the others though except Pheromosa.
>>29781257
it looks so cute but it would probably accidetly papercut you in half whilst it dances
>>29781257
Reminder that this thing can cut buildings in half with a single swipe of its arm
This picture made me love buzzswole. I will always think of him as buffsquito though since that's what I called him.
>>29781567
Do not underestimate the power of paper cuts.
>Nihilego will have a shit ton of parasite fetish porn.
Will Ultra Beasts have traditional Pokedex numbers or do they have a different section for them?
>>29779344
This cutie.
Really like the origami one now that I know it's so tiny.
>>29781567
>>29781598
Glorious nippon paper folded over 181 times.
AWAKEN, SKEETER
UBs are, for all intents and purposes, right?
Gen VII went a little overboard with these in regards to overall percentage of the dex. Way too many. UBs, Mythicals, Mascots, and Zygarde formes.
Oh well, at least some of them look good. Celesteela looks like a Legend of Zelda boss--which is nice. Kartana is all around interesting. Those two are my favorite.
Buzzwole is GOAT
Anyone know which UBs are exclusive to which game?
>>29779042
I have grown to like all the UBs and i love that their just pokemon from a different world sorta like deoxys
>>29779042
I knew that guy looked familiar!
>>29779111
WTF i love kaka ultra beast sensei now
>>29779332
wait dis nigga gets tail glow?
>>29782589
which one is nihilego? what are their names anyway and how do you know them?
UB's are so bizarre I'm glad at the end, everyone and even the International Police decided to learn about them and make friends with them. Their designs still unnerve me.
>>29779371
>173 spatk
what the fuck
>>29781257
How tall is that suppose to be? It looks tiny
>>29783765
IF YOU THINK 173 SP ATTACK IS HIGH WAIT UNTIL YOU SEE WHAT THIS CRAZY ULTRA BEAST DID
>>29783795
jesus fucking christ
that spdef though
>>29783765
And it learnsTail Glow
>>29783809
Yeah vacuum wave will come in handy for the first days of gen 7 when this thing is tearing up OU. It also gets SD
Guzzlord > Celesteela > Xurkitree > Kartana > the others > Necrozma (if it counts)
Guzzlord is one of my favorite designs across the series.
>>29783795
>THAT PAPER CUT
>>29783934
How do you know the names????
>>29779898
that makes her cuter, honestly.
>>29779908
He's made his way into my top 5 favorite Pokemon of all time.
Fucking love everything about him.
>>29779898
>Almost
Isnt it like 30 feet tall or something
>>29779162
I'm having a hard time too. I just think they look stupid as fuck. Especially the bamboo one. I wish I could take every single piece of media that contained that thing and throw it in hell where it belongs. I really wanna talk to whoever made it and tell them how much I hate it and them for making it. It's just awful. I can't be the only one. Anybody?
>>29783795
I AM BECOME PAPER CUT INCARNATE
PAIN AND MISERY IS WHAT I BRING
>>29783774

>>29779042
>essentially legenday
>based off NPCs
>weird type combos
desu I'm not a fan but I like nihilego
I wish they were more like regular Pokemon and evolved and shit, I don't mind the beast ball either
>>29781257
Kartana's my favorite too. Is iit true that it's a version exclusive or was that just a rumor?
>>29779821
It probably is a portal to the UB dimension since it's been known about before UBs were discovered.
>>29784018
It's just you. Look at what you just typed, you're like a screaming child.
>>29783977
The whole game was leaked yesterday.
>>29784313
>based off NPCs
They aren't, it's the other way around.
>I wish they were more like regular Pokemon and evolved and shitCosmog line are UBs that evolve
>>29784355
just a hypothesis based on the dex order. it seems to be celesteela to sun and kartana to moon
>>29779225
Talonflame will destroy Buzzwhole easily, it doesn't need to rely on its ability to get things done.
>>29779042
Buzzwhole I think, Guzzlord close second.
Anyone got a screenshot of Guzzlord's backside? It apparently has a tail.
>>29779042
I for one will love using a Rubber Groot.
>>29784463
But its ability is the only reason anyone used Talonflame in the first place.
>>29783795
>slugma used ember
>>29784433
cosmog is still technically a pokemon world, pokemon right, or is it an ultra beast canonically?
I don't care if it's one way or another, but the similarity is more than coincidental, if they don't address it in game it's going to annoy me
Personally I love the idea of ultra beasts, if they make it so they'd be pokemon of another universe, basically, they require diff balls to catch, can't breed with Pokemon, and had their own dex
>>29784446
Where are you getting this refresh clips from? I want to see everything.
I hope Nihilego will be competitive. I love it and love it's typing
>>29784355
We do know they're both identified as UB-04.
Are there any version exclusive UB's?

It would be weird if she couldn't ram shit to death being a rocket and all.
>>29784957
YES YES!
Does anyone actually have one of these in a leaked game? Can they confirm if Beast Boost is based on base stats or current stats?
>>29779361
Good because Necrozma isn't a UB
>>29784355
the text dump confirms it's version exclusive, kartana in sun and celesteel in moon.
Buzzwole, or whatever it was called, and the one you posted, OP. I really love wire aesthetics (weird, I know).
>>29779114
Link?
Can you catch ultra beasts more than once? Because I don't want to have to trade away my own UBs to get Buzzwole and Celesteela if I can't get another.
>>29786051
according to the story text there are multiples, but whether we can catch all of said multiples remains to be seen.
Are these guys considered legendaries? Or can you get more than one per game.
>>29784446
>>29785907
Wait so which one is it?
Literally just figured out Xurkitree sounds like circuitry after saying it out loud for the first time.
>>29786080
Haven't the dataminers/pirates found out yet?
>>29786087
i'd like to know myself. i haven't read the text dumps.

>>29784957
You forgot wacky wavy inflatable waving arm tube man.
>>29788646
>that piss poor bulk
>no resists
You don't know what counter means. Also it's 100% going to Ubers.
I love each and every one of them. Probably my favorite 'legends' ever, I love how mysterious and alien they all are.
Buzzwole, hands down. He's so fucking cool.
Pheromosa looks like the kind of pokemon that dodges everything and ends you with a single kick breaking your ribs

Other than that it has pretty much Mew's balk.
It's obvious that the Move Tutors will shake up the meta once they will reappear.
>>29790308
It's a shame that some UB are minmaxed monsters and Celesteela's spread is pretty even instead of a horrific defensive abomination.
>>29790384
she's a slow but balanced waifu
>>29790416
What if you make all its non-HP stats equal, would that cause Beast Boost to raise all of them on a kill?
>>29790448
>>29790384
she's a comfy bamboo rocket waifu
she's the only UB i like design wise with maybe kartana, the rest are all terrible
>One kind of Ultra Beast. Witnesses have seen it burn down a forest by expelling gas from its two arms.
*farts*
*inhales*
>>29790384
Can Beast Boost apply to multiple stats as implied by Buzzwole's description?
Because if so this thing is in just the right range to get four boosts at once.
>>29789948
From a video that was originally uploaded on Youtube of each Ultra Beast in Refresh. The original uploader has since taken it down.
So how viable are the UB? Any knowledgeable competitivefag here?

I too, love Fatty McFatfat
>>29779114
Ah see, maybe not at first but in the end you DO like him.
I like to think this UB is just alternate universe rotom inside (human?) machinery.
So lore wise, what are UB's and where did they come from?
>>29779146
>that bamboo mouth
So creepy, so hot
>>29790925
God dammit now I'll need to name them all after Tarots.
Nihilego - ?
Pharamosa - Lovers
Xerkitree - Hermit
Buzzwole - Strength
Guzzlord - Emperor
Kartana - ?
Celesteela - Priestess
and if Necrozma does end up being a UB, Death
>>29792369
Kartana is Chariot?
I think I might go with Tower for Xurkitree. Or Hanged Man.
Nihilego is the Magician or the Fool?
>>29779042
I love the wire one too. Its goofy, slightly unsettling, and has the same color scheme as ya boi. What's not to love?
>>29792369
I think that guzzlord should be the hierophant
>>29792510
Hieriophants bring to kind wisdom. I'm don't know much about Tarot meanings, but that's just the impression I get from the Persona games. So Emperor just fits better.
>>29790308
cheer up m8. leech seed alone takes ferro far. celesteela has a better typing too, as well as a stronger offensive presence. heavy slam is gonna hurt. shes probably gonna function as a traditional tank, hitting really hard and having flexible offensive options. lefties + leech will patch her up. access to fire blast and eq is outstanding too. and even air slash! venutran/ferrotran + clefable cores are shut down.
>>29792652
*Mind
>>29792369
Nihilego is def the Fool, specifically the Reversed Fool.
Kartana could be Chariot or Strength.
>>29786095
>I had this moment yesterday
>>29779042
how did Arceus even came up with this electric cable abomination?

He didn't, UBs are from realms beyond Arceus' domain.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4qdUsfuhh0
>>29792095

>>29792369
Nihilego could be The Fool or The Moon.
>>29793248
>>29793261
then who did make them? notArceus?

>>29792369
>Naming one after a literally who
>>29787984
Is the fat monster mouth one really called Guzzlord or is that a joke?
Was Necrozma found in game?
>>29779042
So are Ultra Beasts legendaries? Or are they your average Pokemon from another dimension?
Also, anybody know when you can catch Nehilego or whatever it's called?
>>29794954
yes its called Guzzlord
>>29779162
This, Ultra Beasts were a mistake
Necrozma is literally a fucking Mecha. It's reminsicent of a more new age anime mecha design, has a metallic prism body, floats around, has a god damn booster on its back. It even learns a ton of beam moves and Autotomize.
I love this guy so fucking much. Kartana's cool too.
>>29794952
This post makes no sense
I didn't read a whole lot of the story spoilers, but did the dimension or whatever the UB's hail from ever get mentioned or explained? I kinda dislike lingering plotholes that are explained in sequels.
>>29795079
High Priestess is irrelevant to the point its user only showed up in one panel without a face.
>>29779042
Guzzlord is honestly my new favorite Pokemon.
>>29795090

quick question.
How late in the game do you catch the different UB's? How many wormhole beastballs do you get?
>>29795228
You just beg like a bitch for more.
after running out of good ideas i decided to ask you Anons
summarize the Ultra Beasts wouldja
How long till Japan makes instructions to actually fold Kartana out of paper?
>>29795456
You're forgetting Kaguya unless Balrog is her.
What the fuck is going on?
Honestly, I haven't been on /vp/ since S&M were announced. Are Ultra Beasts some kind of sub-pokemon? Mega evolutions? A new meme?
>>29795583
Pokémon from another dimension
>>29795583
Pokemon from a dimension where Arceus and Mew don't exist and Pokemon formed from some other method.
>>29795591
>>29795615
Well I never would've guessed that. Thanks, I probably won't be picking this game up but it seems interesting at least
>>29779116
It uses neurotoxins to alter the mental states of things it comes in contact with.
other UB's appear after thefusionright?
>>29795635
Well currently they seem to be the few competitively viable things out there. The designs are getting mixed reactions though
>>29795090
That's not what a plothole is.
