I used this pokemon in my playthrough because he looks pretty

>>30090950
at least its great for catching legendaries

>>30090950
>I am a retard that doesn't know how to use one of the most braindead mons in the gen, please fuck my face

I sure hope you gave him Leech Life over First Impression. It can plow through most anything and keep its health up.

>>30091031
>not both

>>30090950
How the hell can you not understand how vital the ability is to his kit? You essentially get a free U-turn and have switch advantage against enemy U-turns/Volt Switches.

He only uses priority moves and is really tanky so its not like you have to worry about wasting a turn because of it.

>>30091031
>not giving him first impression
>not giving him the strongest priority move in the game
>not giving him the move his ability is based around.
Leech Life, First Impression, Aqua Jet, Sucker Punch. That is how a Golisopod do.

>>30090950
>wanting everything to be super powerful
Fuck off.

>>30090950
>>30090950
>There's a hidden ability
>It's Defeatist

>>30091047
Mine ran Rock Tomb, Sucker Punch, Leech Life and Scald with Rockium Z. Scald was mostly leftover from wimpod, it's the only decent move it gets at that stage.

>>30091031
>erasing First Impression

nigga what are you doing

>>30091075
Shouldn't have even bothered with water STAB if it was going to be a special move, not worth losing First Impression

>>30091031
Giving him both is vastly important. First Impression played a key part in me beating the champion last night due to how strong it is.

>>30091031
>>30091061
>Leech Life
?????????
Why would anyone ever use this move

>>30091107
Got me some clutch burns at the E4

>>30091119
Because it does 80 damage now and is excellent.

>>30090950
It was MVP of my 50 Super Double win streak. If Top Kek and Raichu ever failed to get a clean kill this bad boy would come in and get a First Impression revenge kill than Exit out and immediately come back for another First Impression or Sucker Punch trap.

>>30091119
They buffed it to 80 base power.

>>30091119
It's 80 Power now, keep up with the times

>>30091119
>He doesn't know

It's been buffed to 80BP

Life Orb, Adamant Goli with all of the priority+Leech Life is fucking dumb.

>>30091182
You do know that Golisopod is supposed to function as a revenge killer with all that priority, right? It's the most practical way to make use of it. And it's quite well-implemented, too. It's really cool how his entire moveset revolves around his ability.

>>30091285
Yeah, which is why I said it, thing is really good at its job, it just hates Stealth Rocks.

Is that the official artwork?

>>30091325
>Golisopod used Goliso Spin!

>>30091325
It's going to need some hazard removal support, indeed. I'm just glad this this mon wasn't a disappointment to use competitively.

>>30091338
It's the Dream World art.

>>30091343
Depending on how the Meta develops you may want a tapu on your team as well (Bulu maybe?), as Tapu Lele COMPLETELY shuts Golisopod down.

how come there is no hidden ability found yet for this pokemon?

>>30091367
You can leech life it but yeah, I'd just switch to something else.

>>30091367
All four Tapus are going to see a lot of usage in OU. They're all really scary.

>>30091384
It doesnt have one, because its ability is unique and it's entire moveset and gimmick is built around it.

Same reason you will never see a Mimikyu without disguise

Now that was fast. Is there any way we can get something similar to pic related then?

>not wanting a free switch
Shitters gonna shit.

what item would you give golisopod to hold?

>>30094292
bigroot or lifeorb

>>30094908
>bigroot

wouldn't silver powder be better? It would boost leech life and first impression
