it has completely different coverage and it’s physical which means it doesn’t get walled by special tanks
Added below the numbered chart!For better or for worse, here's your complete Pokedex in visual form. Can we add it to the first page please?
So it's King's Shield but drops Defense instead of Attack. Not bad.Added below the numbered chart!
How is the special move of Intelleon?
Better than King's Shield in defending - it's also immune to all attacks too (according to desc.)
| Snipe Shot | Water | Special | 80 | 100% | 15 | Ignores the effects of opposing Pokemon's moves and Abilities that draw in moves. |
Check the doc here to see what we know so far!
That means Storm Drain won't have the immunity against it right?
I can't see the doc, the proxy is blocking it.
Like the most of the images of the 1st post xDDDDD
Doubt it, just means you can hit a storm drain user’s teammate.
Any guesses on our Barraskewda boi?

One of the leakers already got john wick'd by nintendo just because one of the photos accidentally included his discord avatar; which traced to his youtube channel and then his facebook from there.

Obstruct is giving me some flash backs about debates over king's shield..
I think the 3 Max IVs are Atk, SpD and Spe.
I would imagine something like 100/120/145/82/145/128 for a 720 BST.
And 100/120/115/82/115/138 for the base form, 670 BST.
Anyway, it's at the same time incredibly bulky, very fast and pretty strong.
I'm wondering what they have done for Zacian, does it have huge Atk and low Sp Atk, or does it have two big attack stats and average defense stats ?

Looks like it could find a place in a trick room team, especially in Doubles.
To be honest, I'm glad it's not that bulky because when you Eviolite, I find it highly unlikely Cursola would be preferred over Corsola. Just look at Blissey or Dusknoir, all of them almost outclassed by their pre-evolution.
Also, its special defense isn't bad at all, but its attack stat is a waste.
As for Coalossal...
I had HIGH hopes for it because Fire/Rock is such a good offensive type. It could have a place in a Trick Room team, especially in doubles with something like Eruption, etc. Unless it gets some op ability like Huge Power, I don't see why anyone would use it. Good grief.
Ok but uh...if that's cursola's stats who's to say corsola didn't get it's defense and s.atk swapped. Would evolite corsola even be that great?
Granted if they weren't swapped and the defense just drops on evolution for some reason....we looking at a slightly less bulky dusclops with recover boiiis.
Here are some calcs for the new Pokemon based on the prospective Pokemon Bank OU Metagame. Only Pokemon I believe will have a niche are included.
Grimmsnarl and Toxtricity have promising STAB and might be viable, although Grimmsnarl strikes me as too slow for that fairly mediocre bulk. Toxtricity's viability depends on coverage (mainly fire for Ferrothorn) and stats. It is an Electric type that is capable of breaking through bulky grasses so there certainly is some wallbreaking potential. Falinks could be viable as a potent wincon if you were to build around it. Obstagoon has potential with Belly Drum E-Speed/Sucker Punch. Copperejah seems good in Trick Room, although the playstyle is unreliable. Barraskewda might see niche use on rain for its coverage. Fossils and Galarian Stunfisk might have niches if they have recovery. Eiscue seems like a gimmick at most.

Rocks turns many of these into KO's
Viability depends largely on Z-move execution, whether it gets Fire/Fighting/Ground coverage and Swords Dance. Band has the potential to be a great revenge killer though.

Hm, of course, it's still speculation, but I'd say that the only reason Cursola's physical bulk is so low is because it "breaks" out of its shell while Corsola doesn't. Also, some Pkm have one of their stats decreased when evolving. Electivire, for instance, is not as fast as its pre-evolution.
I really hope Corsola doesn't have its stats decreased and still has access to Regenerator and Recover.
As for Appletun, nice. If it has Thick Fat, grass finally has a Pkm that actually resists Fire--very useful in monotype!
Bolt Beam on a moth is highly unlikely lol. Giga Drain maybe.
That’s a pretty amazing move. Defensive Pokemon that try to wall Grapplock are going to buckle from those progressive stat drops.
Clobbopus
Tantrum Pokemon
2'
8.8 lbs
Its tentacles tear off easily, but it isn't alarmed when that happens-it knows they'll grow back. It's about as smart as a three-year-old.
Grapploct
5'3"
86 lbs
Searching for an opponent to test its skills against, it emerges onto land. Once the battle is over, it returns to the sea.
Wooloo
Sheep Pokemon
2'

If its fleece grows too long, Wooloo won't be able to move. Cloth made with the wool of this Pokemon is surprisingly strong.
Dubwool
Sheep Pokemon
4'3"

Its majestic horns are meant only to impress the opposite gender. They never see use in battle.
Skwovet
Cheeky Pokemon
1'
5.5 lbs
It eats berries nonstop-a habit that has made it more resilient than it looks. It'll show up on farms, searching for yet more berries.
Greedent
Greedy Pokemon

Common throughout the Galar region, this Pokemon has strong teeth and can chew through the toughest of berry shells.
