My bad anon. Shouldn't have doubted you
>faster than Vikavolt
>its evolution loses 20 base speed and becomes the same speed as Vikavolt
JUST
>become permanently charged with electricity and grow perfectly functioning wings
>become slower as a result
Excuse me, what?
FUCKING BULLSHIT THAT IT DOESNT HAVE AT LEAST 80 IM FOREVER MAD

What sound accompanied this?
>>30862259
>Escavalier, Vikavolt, Celesteela all mentioned in the lore to fly at high speeds
Next time GF says something "flies around at high speeds," you'll understand that this is a key phase meaning "isn't faster than base 65."

Oh come on. He can't be slower than "saving a lot of data"
That's just taking it too far
Slower than a crab hauling a massive fucking boulder
Unfortunately I'm not joking

How about Mach 2 speed?
when i was little, my dad went out for a pack of cigarettes and hasn't gotten back yet. I'm now 28.
Grubbin. WHY. Why is a stag beetle larva faster than a flying adult stag beetle?

That's pretty clever anon

Funny how for the Totem Vikavolt cutscenes, it was just slowly hovering up the mountain.
>>30862819
Tbf in reality stag beetles are lazy fliers and take forever to take off. A slow electric railgun ship beetle though? Wtf.
>>30866695
I kinda wonder if they deliberately nerfed the Pokemon used for totems
>>30862473
Don't they all have methods of boosting speed? I always figured the Dex lore takes moves into account, even if the Pokemon doesn't know them at the time.
I get the meme, but Vikavolt isn't even bad. After it evolved it fucking carried me through the rest of the game partnered with a Slowbro. That being said, FUCK Gamefreak making it evolve literally minutes before the Elite Four. Despite how much I love it, I would never again waste the time carrying it around in-game to evolve another. If you want to use it, and it is worth it, just have someone trade you a leveled up Charjabug lategame.

Doubt it.
They could always just lower their levels instead if they thought it was too much (I feel like they did this for Kommo-o, because its kind of a push over at its level).
Plus they already had Totem Vikavolt take it easy on you by having no special attacks
It is literally slower than a tortoise
>Regigigas finally got it going!
>>30861939
it can roll, beetle can't
Speed stat in pokemon is just reaction speed + mobility since pokemon have to react to your commands to move. You can be really fast but also be slow to react and move on a dime.
Maybe vikavolt is fast but takes a while to build up that speed and only moves in a straight line? That wouldn't help him react or move any faster in a real fight, so he has low base speed.

Meowth is actually pretty damn fast, though.
>>30870016
idk maybe it just can't hear well with all the electricity in its mouth
>yfw it's slow because it's a super powerful railgun and this is the Pokemon equivalent of a powerful weapon having a low rate of fire
It's still really shitty in practice, but maybe that's the theme they were going for.
