His main problem isn't his speed, he reaches 422 after a single Rock Polish. His main problem is the lack of a Fire or Ice attack to threaten other Grass-types, as well as floating steels (Skarmory and Bronzong). On top of that, he suffers like most other physical sweepers from Intimidate. This allows stuff like Gyarados and Salamence to switch in and survive Stone Edge, then OHKO with Fire Blast/Draco Meteor or Ice Fang, or switch out and lower its attack even further. A physical Hidden Power (not based on consuming berries; Natural Gift) would help with the former problem. Earthquake / Physical Fire or Ice / Stone Edge or Wood Hammer / Rock Polish would be decent, nothing OU material though.
Damn, I wanted to reply to this. Anyways, you pretty much covered everything I wanted to say.

Nothing feels better than having my hazards up with the sand blowing after setting up Rock Polish and dropping the Wood Hammer of justice on some unsuspecting Pokemon trying to defend itself 8D!
 
She's a gothic lolita girl.
She has a pretty hairdo.
She is quite tall.
She is like a chocolate multi-layered cake with ribbons.
She's in Pokémon Black (Omg, Reshiram!)
She's a celestial body Pokémon, what fancier species name can you have?

Awwww, she's too cute for words. Is it confirmed that Lolligoth is a female only species? Male Lolligoth seems weird.

Just saying...

Well, we have male Gardevoir and female Machamp/Hariyama after all. I guess we're up to yet another androgynous pokémon.


And I'll be mad if we end up with yet another fucking Psychic/Fighting alternative male-only evolution. Seriously motherfuckers, at least give the original evolution a few new moves parallel to the alternative's ones.
 
The way they showed Munna-> Musharna makes me think Musharna is a final evo, which sucks vag. I wanted a Hindu Deva. Also, Musharna is pretty big in sprite form.

Koromori's sprite looks utterly retarded.

Does anybody know what move Pokabu was using in the double battle? It looked like a figure eight of fire.
 
perfect. dick girls. pokemon was in need of something like that.
...agreed... guess I'll do what I've done with Gardevoir in the past: pretend male versions don't exist.

We have female Hariyama in the United States. :D
It took me like 20 seconds to get the joke. It's late...

I'm not surprised at all that Musharna is likely to be a final form in that evolutionary line, considering the strong resemblence to the Drowzee/Hypno line. However, I agree that Koromori's sprite is horrible, the artwork looks so much better. Its nose looks like it's consuming the rest of the sprite!

Regarding that firey figure-eight, I don't think Pokabu's attack has a name yet; we'll have to wait and see.

All in all, I'm very pleased with all of the new content we're seeing. All new Pokemon, new moves, new abilities... just what I wanted from this generation.
 
i see....the power of the pedobear took control over the greenblob...guess not even the seal was capable of stopping pedobear rampage....now only megazord zekrom can save the day. but not without the help of its partner chicken Reshiram! together they fight against evil. monsters like pedobear greenblob mode dont stand a chance VS Zekrom and chicken.
 
Nitro Charge might end up being the Fire priority move that a lot of people have wanted. It will be especially useful if Pokabu is a slower bulkier Pokemon like I'm predicting. The only other thing I could see it being (atleast, the only thing that would be useful) is a physical Fire move with 80+ Base Power, which would be rather useful, especially on a Pokemon that probably won't learn Fire Punch.
 
Nitro Charge sounds like a stat-up move to me, maybe Special Dragon Dance?

I guess it could be; I haven't seen an animation of it. If it is a stat up move, I would think it would increase speed in some way since nitrous oxide is used to increase speed in cars. I was thinking of charge meaning it ran at the opponent and tackled them as apposed to meaning it charges up power.
 
I thought Nitro Charge was going to be something like a Fire-Type Charge. But now I'm hoping it is an attack. And yes Priority would be amazing. I can see Scizor cringing now...

The rumour that Mario with Lasers posted says it is a damage dealing attack that has a chance of raising speed. I could see it being base 60 and maybe replacing Flame Wheel for this starter.

I'm thinking that only Fire-types (and maybe some psuedo-Fire-types like Groudon and Dialga) will get it and Scizor can't do a whole lot to most Fire-types, anyway. Heatran and the Pokabu evo (assuming it's bulky and faster than Scizor) won't take much from Bullet Punch and will KO Scizor back with any Fire attack. Infernape would probably get the most benefit out of it because Scizor can actually hit it around half of its health.

Of course, if a few Dragon-types or Rock-types get it, it could be pretty useful on them and of course, anything that's faster than them and weak to Fire would get hit hard.

Edit: @ Voltres: That would certainly be interesting, as we have moves that have a chance to raise everything but SpDef and Spe, iirc. I'd hope it has something like 70 or 80 Base Power so it will actually be useful, though. Charge Beam has 70 Base Power, so it should be able to work out.

Charge Beam has 50 BP D:

Anyway, I'm still really excited to see where they go with sprite animations.. Wargle looked really good. Still hoping that they don't reuse sprites, because certain sprites looked terrible. DP Entei, DP Furret, DP Stantler, DP.. well, most sprites from DP sucked.
