Crabominable

No.

Absolutely not.

I'm still waiting for it.

Yes.

>>29893815
For some reason in the elite four my Pokemon could not hit him and he spammed Ice Hammer and crit everytime.

>>29893815
He looks stupid and no one likes him.

Hes good with trick room

135 attack is no laughing matter.

>>29893815

>slow, frail ice type

It would have been salvagable if it got priority but it doesnt.

Maybe in SM2/Eclipse/Shining Diamond&Glistening Pearl/Delta Emerald Z:Grey Edition

holy shit I didnt know guzma ran mono bug team

>>29893872
>135
132

>>29894309
Guzma is the biggest bugbro. Literally our boi.

>>29893893
jesus FUCKING christ, first impression is abusive, good synergy with emergency exit. Cycle goes on and on. Well built teams will be a nightmare to take down.

Slow, Defensive, Ice Type.

GF had an opportunity to make a fantastic Fighting/Ice glass canon with decent speed and good attack. As usual, they see Ice as defense.

At least we still have Weavile.

>>29894616
it's not defensive in any way. It's just slow and frail.

>>29893893
holy shit Guzmas pkmn are 3-4 lvls under his and he still kicks his ass

>>29893815
Why is it so fucking ugly?

Crabrawler looks great, and then it turns into this slow, ugly piece of shit.

>>29893893
wait a minute, i thought WishiWashi's effect went off when it was at half heath

>>29893890
It's not that frail. It has the same HP as Rampardos but slightly better Defenses.

>>29896050
Maybe it got punched in the face really hard

>>29896122
25% health.

>>29896122
25% I believe

>>29896050
Cause its literally an abominable crab? Like...

>>29896424
ORLY? I thought It was supposed to be a crab hippopotamus

What's the bp on First Impression? The game says 90 but that sounds far too low.

>>29896595
Its a 90 power +2 priority usable as 1st move on switch in.

>>29896631
Eh, I'd stick with my Leech Life/Sucker Punch thanks.

SLOW

holy shit that camera pan up to the fedoralord trainer at 0:36 made me lose so hard

>>29893815
My dear sweet anon.
I hate to tell you this, being a huge fan of Crabrawler and Crabominable when they were revealed and leaked...
But they are absolutely horrible. They get killed before they ever do a thing 80+ percent of the time. I really didn't want to replace him but it didn't evolve until really late game and was still completely underwhelming. I swapped it out as soon as I got Xurkitree

>>29896674
yeah leech life is amazing now.
Leech Life
Aqua Jet
Liquidation
Poison Jab/Rock Slide/Sucker Punch

>>29893893
Why is this guy so shit at battling?

>>29896764
Honestly I like First Impression's animation a lot.
Golisopod just goes "Hoh shit" and slugs the enemy in the face, like he's still a fucking puss and did it out of reflex.

>>29893893
Doesn't Bug resist Poison? Golisopod took neutral damage from Sludge Bomb.

Do we know egg moves yet? Have people tried breeding ice shard or mach punch on to it?

It got fucked unfortunately. Real shame but this simply isn't much going for it. Good designs though, I myself preffer crabrawler but I like both of them.

>>29894556

>yfw you just realized you can Choice Band that

>>29896879
No, other way around my dude.

>>29896288
Being an Ice-type does it absolutely no favors.

You can still make it good. It has a good move pool that you can work with
i was thinking
reversal
ice hammer/blizzard
substitute
iron defense
with the ability anger point
it can still be used to have a potential

>>29898406
It gets STAB on its signature move, which is actually fucking fantastic.
It is also further boosted by Iron Fist.

>>29899856
it's also a slow, frail ice type

>>29896764
The only problem is that I almost never get to use liquidation, his fucking ability always cocksblock me

>>29899872
Yeah but let's not ignore the fact it has 3 good resistances (bug is actually good this generation so expect to see bug attacks fairly often) and excellent coverage.

It's not nearly as bad as people here are making it out to be.

>>29893893
>that bulk
Anchor arms.

>>29899915
It has massive attack and an incredible dual STAB combo (Close Combat and Iron Fist-boosted Ice Hammer) but that's it.

Everything else about it sucks, but I reckon the next set of games MIGHT fix it to an extent by giving it the appropriate moves... this thing is literally BEGGING for Mach Punch and/or Ice Shard.

>>29899967
what does Ice Hammer do?

>>29899977
it's an ice-type Hammer Arm (100 BP, 90% acc, lowers user's speed 1 stage).
it gets Iron Fist boost so it's essentially a 120 BP move with STAB.
sadly Crab is the only mon that learns it.

>>29899967
how much better would it be if it had access to those moves?

>>29900058
not much, honestly.
it would be able to run a hit-and-run LO/CB set and thanks to its neutrality to SR it would be workable even in the upper tiers but remember this is the anti-priority generation so priority isn't as powerful and reliable as it used to be.

then again Ice Shard's main targets are fliers/levitators so Tapu Lele's Psychic Terrain wouldn't affect it THAT much...
