When?
raikou, entei and suicune will be next month on the virtual console games. defiant passimian is the only interesting one.
>>33275297
Primeape exists though
>>33275284
why would anybody want HA Tapus?
>>33275284
Hopefully never, all of those hidden abilities are utter garbage, except Intimidate that will make the cat just slightly less useless.
>>33275326
Niche doubles teams, immunity to EQ is nice for both Koko and Lele who generally have a tough time taking physical damage added that it's SE on Koko
>>33275305
yeah but passimian looks better. lemurs > every other primate
I hate how they nerfed the Legendary Beasts' HAs.
Weird how Incineroar slightly outclasses Arcanine in all but Sp. Attack and Speed. Can't wait to use him as a Bulky Intimidator, even if he has a Fighting type weakness. He does however have Fake-Out, U-turn, Leech Life, and Darkest Lariat.
Decidueye doesn't have to worry about a lot of things. https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Contact
Thanks to Liquid Voice I can see Primarina being used a lot more.
Not sure how useful Symbiosis Oranguru will be, but it's got better bulk overall than Florges. I could see Pinch Berry shenanigans, or it tossing a Tapu an item after said Tapu uses it's Seed after being sent in. If it can toss an item to a pokemon that just used a Z-Crystal then that'll be fun. (Bulbapedia says it can't give one to another pokemon).
Defiant Passimian looks like it'll run a bulky set or you could Scarf it.
I could only see Telepathy Tapus being used when someone doesn't want one to override the other's terrain, and be able to spam spread moves.

>Oranguru giving P2 an Eviolite after it uses Z-Conversion
>>33275502
Using a Z-move doesn't remove the crystal as your hold item, so that would fail.
Could be useful with type gems, but those don't fuckin exist anymore, I guess.

Gotcha, and thank god.

>White Herb used up after a Shell Smash
>Then Oranguru gives them a Life Orb
You could max out their defenses.
>Tapu Bulu holding Grassy Seed
>Oranguru gives Assault vest
Risky, but might be cool.
>Adrenaline Orb Milotic gets Intimidated
>Oranguru gives it Life Orb/Pinch Berry/Weakness Policy/

Intimidate Incineroar has a lot of potential, especially if USUM grants it a shit ton of the best tutor moves on the grounds of being bipedal.

Incineroar has more weaknesses and fewer resistances

That's fucking retarded and you damn well that no one is gonna do that
>>33275284
The starters are most likely either gonna be a postgame gift or a giveaway for those who participate in a future tournament, like when they distributed Sturdy Tyrunt back in ORAS.
>>33275702
>>33275748
Once roaming legendares are back best genie's gonna render both irrelevant, sadly.
>>33275740
yeah but no one cares about that monstrosity. all the starters are shit.
>>33275765
>Smogonline + AV Baracat leads
Good god imagine. Double intimidate + fake out + Z-Fly

>Milotic's Special Attack sharply rose!

>Milotic's Speed rose!
>Milotic's Special Attack sharply rose!
>>33275326
HA tapu fini so you can actually make a defensive set. You can run toxic and scald can now burn. Misty Surge isn't all that great.
>>33278193
Tapu Fini doesn't have recovery though
>>33277309
Milotic never prevented Landorus and other Intimidators from being so common because it's a shitmon without boosts and arguably, even after
>>33275753
Current Bank gift (Mewnium-Z) ends soon too, so they could also be stuck there like the Johto starters and Hoenn golem HAs.
Would actually kind of make sense as it would be a nice final gift for people with S/M while allowing you to open US/UM with them if you're willing to breed and transfer.
>>33275466
Inner Focus isn't really a nerf considering doubles, especially for Suicune who will become one of the most reliable Tailwind users
>>33275375
Why not directly run air balloon koko at that point? you still set terrain and protect a partner from random smeargles, while also being EQ-proof at least once.
