Doesn't know how to attack
Something I didn't realize at first because it's hard to tell, but is it just me or is Basculegion's stripe kind of puprle-ish? I thought it was red at first, but it's definitely different from Red Stripe Basculin's Red and the hand thing fins (Please don't make fun of me too much for not knowing the term.) are clearly the smooth Blue Stripe Basculin fins. I'm guessing that either Basculegion can evolve from either Stripe form or, in the very likely chance that Basculegion can only evolve from a Hisuian Basculin form, Hisuian Basculin is what Basculin was before Darwinian Evolution turned it from One Fish into Two Fish. (Red Fish and Blue Fish.) In other words, I'm guessing Hisuian Basculin is a "Purple Fin" Basculin. (And the inspiration of Pokemon's version of Dr. Seuss, although we already suspected the later when Basculin was revealed in Gen 5. :P)
As fun as that would be, I have a feeling it's going to be like that time in Gen 7 when Gyarados dropped to UU. It was quickbanned before the ladder could update for the monthly shifts. If I'm wrong, please pass the popcorn. I want to watch the little world burn. >:Das soon as home drops the lc players are going to have the wildest week before they both get banned lmao
