45 Speed. 45 fucking Speed. It's a Mongoose. It has awful

He's the Stakeout Pokemon, not the SWAT Raid Pokemon.

They even gave you a funny pun about stepping in chewing gum in English, quit whining.

>>30468729
Why would you make the Stakeout pokemon have god awful defences too then?
It has nothing going for it at all.
Nintendo does it again.

>>30468668
I wouldn't have minded the Base 45 Speed if it didn't have Base 60 Defenses. That's so overkill.

Look at how they made Diggersby good. They could've done the same thing here.

They should've made it
HP 88
Atk 110
Def 60 --> 50 (-10)
SpA 55 --> 35 (-20)
SpD 60 --> 50 (-10)
Spe 45 --> 85 (+40)

>>30468754
That's literally just Stoutland but worse, and he's PU.

It's a fucking wonder to me that they'd invent a new unique ability then do everything in their power to make it completely unusable.

So what? At least it gives the mon a fighting chance. You've got a lot of mons that overlap in structure, like Mega Venusaur and Amoonguss.

>>30468668
If I'd known he was this slow I never would've voted for him

>>30468668
It's still a much better mongoose pokemon than zangoose æsthetically speaking.

>43 speed

>>30468865
That's it's aesthetically good is the fucking problem when every other element of it is pure sabotage

>>30468668
>it's fucking slow
t. every alolan pokemon

>>30468875
this one makes absolutely no sense
it's fucking aerodynamic
how many fast pokemon are even in alola
ribombee and who else

>>30468893
At least HA Alolan Golem might be the closest Explosion comes to useful.
Pumped to try that out, wonder if anyone else has tried.

>>30468821
Oh, I assumed it applied double damage for the entire battle and tossed typing, stats and team balance out the window. I was hoping to see the cheeky little fucker popping up on Smogon lists next to Ubers.

Not the first theoretical gimmickmon that's actually just a shitmon.

The slow speed is to nerf people who over level

Vikavolt is literally slower than caterpie.

>>30468927
Comfey is decently fast

>>30468668
Read his dex entries, he's a lazy piece of shit.

Second best.

its coverage options are so much worse than its speed

hilarious, gamefreak

Stakeout does technically cover it by making everything super effective mathematically, but, nothing else stands up.

Why did they rebalance so many things quite well but just fuck up the new pokemon.
And they NEVER rebalance.
