Those aren't tumors, they're seeds. Sceptile is fertile.

>>33390010
Nobody can. This picture is flawless and exposes the steaming shitpile that is shitile.

>>33390010

Grovyle's blades are just leaves, Sceptile's are literally fused into its arms

>>33390010
I never liked Sceptile's design.

Sceptilefag here, it's one of my favorite pokemon and the most fav starter, but even I admit it's one ugly motherfucker. Mega fixes him a bit though.

t. Never seen a fern leaf

These are spore pods you retards.

>>33390067
Then why doesn't it learn spore?

>>33390032
Everyone jumped ship to Blaziken and Swampert for a reason, nigger.

And that is because Sceptile not only looks like complete ass but is also the only Hoenn starter that is utter shit competitively.

If you think Sceptile is in any way good, let alone great, you simply have shit taste, that's all there is to it.

>>33390010
Perfect taste. Even as a kid I thought Sceptile looked ass.

>>33390107
It's called Mushroom Spore in Japan

>>33390114
This is a true story BTW, but it's because Gamefreak was scared of adding /Dragon to starters in the earlier gens and they have stated "it'd make them too OP". Sceptile should've been /Dragon from the get-go. I feel like its design and movepool suffered from them possibly omitting the Dragon typing from it. It had the stats.

>>33390126
Well before Fairy type, it would have been OP.

>insulting Sceptile
I will end you, OP. Keep one eye open tonight, for your sake.

Since nobody else really is, I'll defend sceptile.
The reason I don't like grovyle is because I like treecko. The way most of you feel about torracat -> incineroar or popplio -> brionne is the way I feel about treecko -> grovyle. I liked the little gecko. Grovyle was too different; the tail(s) was totally gone, the entire gecko motif got trashed for a feathered dino motif. Change the colors, you'd have a tough time guessing they belong to the same line. Sceptile looks more like treecko, and takes the good parts from grovyle (the arm leaves/feathers, ditching the long head leaf, the weird bird feet, and two leaf/feather "tails") and combines it with the old stuff that worked (a proper tail, better posture). It synthesizes the two designs of treecko and grovyle without throwing one out, and that's good.
I'm convinced everyone who says things like OP never liked treecko in the first place, or jerks off to Mystery Dungeon in their spare time. Explorers of time/darkness/sky are great games, and grovyle's a good character. It's just not a good treecko successor, in my opinion.

The main thing it suffered from is phys/spe split. It was actually good in gen3, now it's a special attacker with physical movepool.

It's not like you can't build it phys with mega's 110 atk but gen4 cucked it nevertheless.

>>33390010
Sceptile is a mature lizard built for sex

>>33390010
they are both shit desu

>>33390178
Grass/Dragon would've been good, but not groundbreakingly OP if we're talking pre-Fairy.
Sceptile was my first Hoenn starter choice and holds a special place in me, but I just feel it got shafted hard compared to Swampert and Blaziken

Yeah, but the seeds work like gunpowder instead.

Sceptile may not be the best start of the franchise, but it is in Hoenn and even more so in Emerald. Even being a teecko could fuck without any problem to Swampert. And his mega evolve gains resistance to the blaziken fire being able to learn Sword Dance and Earthquake among other effective attacks hitting first with his great speed. Sceptile is the damn master.

>>33390010
I love them both almost equally
but Grovyle more of them, it's just my nostalgia

>>33390828
This, the seeds ignite the drill at the end of its tail, that's why you saw them fire off whenever Sceptile did leaf storm in XYZ
