Sugar, Spice and One For All
Pretty based. Steel/Fairy is a well known godly defensive typing, and would essentially settle into the tier as a much more toned down version of Magearna. Its defensive utility is pretty rad, it blanket checks a large portion of the metagame too just based on the virtue of typing alone. Would easily become a top tier Pokémon, maybe even be TOO powerful.
We running out of ideas I see. I guess it is somewhat decent bulk? I can't really think of the merits of pure Fighting typing, and the lack of reliabke recovery makes me think AV would be the set of choice, making SR kinda moot. I don't even think it does much to hazard removal, especially if it is Corviknight. Pretty lazy buff if you ask me
I would be 1000% sold if this bad boy had U-turn. Right now I am pretty mixed. It's bulk, power and speed are all screaming "average" to me, nithing stellar on any particular front. Bug/Ground also faces the problem of oh no your Ground type can't even check Fire types? Not a very good look imo. Amazing buff for it in a vacuum but I think it just misses the mark on OU.
No hazard weakness + Rocky Helmet weakness while still doing everything it did before with Rock Head is very rad. Makes the Trick Room breaker a biger threat on Trick Room. It may even find itself on slow bulky teams due to its new found longevity. Thats about it. Do not expect it to be amazing, but if it wins it gets much easier to pilot on TR and very niche balance builds may have found a new breaker. On god, I'd add Sneak as well, or some speed so it sees use outside of TR.
Easily the worst Pokémon on this list. As an offensive threat, is isn't one. As a defensive Pokémon, it doesn't actually add much specific utility nor does it check a specific high profile offensive threat that overwise cannot be blanketed by the usual suspects. It baffles me that people are even hyping this Pokémon up.
a pretty scarse slate overall, nothing very creative or major sans Aroma here.
