"Seeking to ease the burden of solitude, lonely Trainers tell Zoroark to show illusions to them." This is Zoroark's pokedex entry in Shield. I think it's really cool how the developers don't hold back when making pokedex entrys, especially from SM onwards. This makes the universe much more alive

Arctozolt at least I can imagine throwing himself at the opponent and doing something minimally close to a punch. Kyurem just can't punch, it just has 2 little claws in his hand, which I don't think would close. Dual Wingbeat makes some sense too, because it can at least fly at the target and...

Wait, did he lose? I'm pretty sure it's left open whether he lost or not. I personally think he won, as I remember he tells the story in a very confident way. Sorry if I misunderstood what you meant. I'll take this opportunity to say something I had forgotten about him: both Alola Ninetales...

Initially I thought that Kukui's Pokemon were just random "strong" Pokemon. But I ended up realizing that it's a pretty cool choice. 3 of his Pokemon are Pokemon from people who (apparently) are friends with him (Magnezone=Molayne, Lycanroc=Olivia, Crabominable=Hala), Braviary follows a similar...

Wait, does Giovanni have these powers? I'm pretty sure only Yellow and Lance were revealed to have it, and that only a few people born there have those powers. Anyway, I'm pretty sure you're right about Weedle's motive

Oh it makes sense

I was thinking "it doesn't suit Giovanni to have a Kangaskhan, who has strong maternal instincts". However, that's when I realized, that it suits him a lot. Few Pokemon would like to cause harm. So, to make up for that, he probably would have threatened to harm the cub if Kangaskhan didn't obey...

I don't think that's what they thought, considering how meaningless the distribution of TMs in Pokemon from gen1 is, but I thought of an explanation, at least a little decent, for that. If he were to use Ice Punch, the ice would accumulate directly in his hand, probably causing great pain...

The distribution of Leech Life is strange, especially with Pokémon from gen7. Incineroar, Salazzle, Mimikyu and Naganadel are strange choices, in addition to Dracovish. It is also strange that Kabutops only received it on gen8. Lurantis is also a curious choice, but as it is inspired by an...

Why the evolutionary line of Quagsire learns Eerie Impulse, and many electrical types do not learn, including Magnezone, that his pokedex in Sword says "Some say that Magnezone receives signals from space via the antenna on its head and that it's being controlled by some mysterious being" and...

Floral Healing should be considered useful if the tier is doubles, after all Comfey almost always uses it in VGC, where it has a niche, and can be useful in Doubles OU meme teams. At the same time, Ally Switch should be considered useful in VGC, because, although not very standard, it has good...
