>Pelipper gets drizzle and 10 added to its base special attack
>Torkoal gets drought
>Moltres, Typhlosion and Arcanine get Burn Up, a 100% accurate 130 BP move that removes their fire typing
>Beedrill no longer needs to run protect to mega evolve (assuming it gets its mega stone eventually)
Besides alola forms, what other old Pokemon were buffed? Either directly or indirectly.

M-Banette
It went from absolute trash to trash
>>30360530
Bibarel got Swords Dance, Crunch and Aqua Jet. It's still shit, but at least it got something to make up for the fact that it can't be an HM slave anymore.
Gigalith got sand stream
SOON

I'd say it didn't really get any better or worse. The first turn prankster is super nice, but destiny bond's new chance to fail and dark type's prankster immunity hurt.
Magikarp got z-splash
Flygon got dragon rush and more importantly dragon dance
Dugtrio got a massive jump from 80 to 100 base attack.
>>30360648
it gives dark types completely free switches and can't even burn them and is then pursuit trapped. i'd say it got worse.
All Psychic types.
Alakazam + scarfed Tapu Lele is terrifying.

Flygon got dragon rush last gen, it's not really even a buff because it's such a shit move
>>30360665
I think it could potentially hit RU with +3 dual STAB priority.
Masquerain got +20 in SpAtk and +20 in Speed. Probably the biggest buff so far.
>>30361792
in raw stats definitely
I think pelipper got the biggest buff overall though
>>30361792
>Still cant sweep even at +2
just kill me and fuck you gamefreak
>>30362115
Pretty sure thats mantine
+20 hp
And roost
They finally gave some love to my nigga Masquerain.>mfw it was specifically because Guzma runs one, and it Air Slashed its way through like half of my team
>>30362304
I was wondering during that fight when Masquerain became such a motherfucker.
