>literally the same ability except Bewear gets fucked over by fire types
What's the point of using Bewear over Furfrou or Alolan Persian?
>>32289602
Bewear can actually deal damage
The fact that it has 30 and 50 more BST, can actually kill stuff, and doesn't have a Flareon tier movepool.
>>32289602
Bewear can deal damage and has good bulk even without its ability.
>>32289602
Bewear has offensive presence and it actually doesn't play anything like Furfrou or A-Persian. Bewear is a bulky attacker while A-Persian is a fast bulky pivot while Furfrou is just a shitmon that has no place in a serious battle.
>>32289602
Furfrou is a shitmon though. A-Persain is niche at best. Bewear can at least hit like a truck. If it had Drain Punch it might've been more common.

>252+ Atk Bewear Return vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Mew: 178-211 (44 - 52.2%) -- guaranteed 3HKO after Leftovers recovery
>252+ Atk Furfrou Return vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Mew: 133-157 (32.9 - 38.8%) -- 5.5% chance to 3HKO after Leftovers recovery
That's the point.
Bewear also has
>fighting stab
>elemental punches
>actually learns double edge
furfrou gets cotton guard too lol bewear a shit and has no class
>>32289706
It has no class, but it can actually kick ass.
>>32289602
Furfrou has shit stats in comparison to Bewear and has shit stats in general
-Furfrou
Pros:
>takes half damage from all physical attacks
>gets Cotton Guard
Cons:
>shit stats
-Bewear
Pros:
>takes half damage from all CONTACT attacks (the difference between Fluffy and Fur Coat's buffs is that there's like, 1 or 2 special attacks that make contact, and not all physical attacks make contact)
>actually usable stats
Cons:
>takes double damage from Fire type attacks
Bewear ends up being better overall, anyway
>tfw Furfrou will never be usable
feels bad, man
contact moves =! physical moves
the two abilities are not "the same ability except bewear gets hurt by fire types"
>>32291530
>takes double damage from Fire type attacks
Only special ones
For ones that make contact (Fire Punch, Flare Blitz), Fluffy's effects balance out, so they just do neutral damage
>>32291616
oh shit you right
I forgot about that
>>32289602
it's pink
>>32289667
Bewear is already good enough no need for Drain Punch
>>32291616
>Only special ones
No, all except the ones that makes contact.
>>32291616
>sacred fire is special
>>32293165
Gee I wonder what the grand majority of special attacks are
>>32293842
draining kiss makes contact and is special, just like how EQ is physical and doesn't make contact
don't move the goalposts, admit you were wrong
>>32293860
He's not wrong. There are no special fire moves that make contact.
You on the other hand are autistic.
