A ton of pokemon got some decent stat boosts this gen, and not just 10 points here and there, some have had their base stats boosted by 30 or more.
I'm tempted to try out Beartic once again now it has that tasty attack stat and Slush Rush, even Corsola is looking viable with its 10 to health and both defences.

So, have any of you noticed you Karen-Bro perform better? Any changes in the meta, both official and smogon? Nice to see GF get more comfortable with boosting shitmons beyond a humble 10+.

are you into muscular men, opee?

I understand it being a shit.
I don't understand its SpA being higher than its Atk.

maybe they'll boost Vikavolt's speed by 40 points in gen 8

How will this affect masquerain? I haven't used it yet, because I'm waiting for bank, but now it has a fantastic movepool (bug/water/ice hits almost everything neutrally) has intimidate, quiver dance and baton pass.

I can see it maybe hitting UU and maybe rarely popping up in OU under rain support.

>gamefreak could've at least given Ledian a held item that doubles the power of its Punch attacks, stacks with any boosts and Iron Fist, and it wouldn't have broken the game at all nor be hard to implement, both in game development or in-game lore

I don't want Ledian to be OUbermencsh, just to be recognised and boosted, even if all it got was 10+ to Attack and a gimmicky signature move.

Dustox was the only 385 BST bug not to get a stat boost (Butterfree, Beedrill and Beautifly got the 10 point boost). This makes it the only pokémon that evolved twice and still has a lower BST than a pokémon that can evolve twice (Porygon's BST is 390).

Even a Bug/Fairy alolan form to just start over would be better

It'll never be anything but a joke, but I'm happy to see that my LG Timid Gyarados can soon spam specs boosted Hurricane when bank is out.

I'm interested in seeing how Specs Swellow performs now that its Sp. Attack is only 10 points lower than its Attack.

Cryogonal is so close to being good. Either swapping its Sp.Def. and Speed or a general Ice buff would make it relevant.

I'm glad Qwilfish is tanker but I wish it got more HP or SpD
