Why doesn't Kartana get talked about as much as the other ultra beasts? It has a pretty coherent design and it has great attack defense and speed. It's great.

its special defense is paper thin and its quad weak to a common offensive typing (fire) which while thematically appropriate means many things can kill it in one hit.
also its move pool is surprisingly low powered, the strongest STAB move it gets is leaf blade iirc. most other attacks it learns average about 70 base power

Because all it has going for it is hitting really hard and unsheathe
It's a Grass Cannon
did u rike it

He doesn't lend himself to memes as much as SWOLE and Xurkitree do, he's not as competitively viable as big steel wife and le healthy meta cockroach, he's solid but doesn't particularly stand out against such a robust group.

It has less special bulk than Pheromosa. It's manageable in singles but really hurts him in doubles.

Not really he has more defense than Ferrothorn.

Sacred Sword is pretty alright for it. But yeah, it doesn't have a big movepool.
A shame that Smart Strike is only 70 power. You'd think Gamefreak would have invented a Steel-typed "slicing" move or something for Pokemon whose designs involve blades. Smart Strike kinda works, but specifically mentions using a horn.

Its great in singles and only there, Pheromosa and Celesteela are the best UBs and there is nothing you can do about it

Because it's the lesser known sun exclusive UB
Kartana is a cute lil fella.

That's adorable. I didn't originally think I was going to like the UBs, but they grew on me once we actually got the game and now I think they're awesome.

Which episode is this referencing?
I wanna rewatch some of these.

I hate its design. Completely turns me off using it.
A paper origami sword person thing had the potential to look amazing. Keep the design simple, graceful, elegant, give it some cool animations that involve smoth moves, folding and unfolding, loop-de-loops, etc.
Instead we got ugly floaty paper thing. The design is just far too busy, so many sharp edges and angles make it look ugly.
