Name: UB-24 "Swordsman"
New Stats: 73/149/113/67/71/97
New Typing: Dark-Steel
Added Moves: Me First, Bulk Up, Night Slash, Sacred Sword, Stone Edge, Pursuit, Thief, Smart Strike, Iron Head, Metal Claw, Slash, Psycho Cut, X-Scissor, Reflect, Brick Break, Reversal, Counter, Revenge, Flash Cannon, Dark Pulse, Retaliation, Cut [REMOVED: Leafage, Synthesis, Razor Leaf, Frenzy Plant, Grass Pledge, Energy Ball, Solar Beam, Grass Knot, Shadow Ball, Ominous Wind, Curse, Baton Pass, Defog, Nasty Plot, Peck, Growl, Light Screen, Brave Bird, Haze, Spirit Shackle, Confuse Ray]
Abilities: Guts, Long Reach
Appearance: Decidueye, instead of a hood and feather, now has a samurai's helmet. Its torso, "bowtie strings" and wings are almost entirely coated in leather, though the orange triangles in its wings look metallic instead because the leather coating on the wings is actually lots of sheaths to conceal its razor-sharp feathers. The leather coating on the torso has four cuts so that can walk or run more easily. (Height: 1.6m/5'3", Weight: 53.2kg/117.3lb)
Justification: In Alola, new trial-goers traditionally recieve and start out with Rowlet, Litten, or Popplio. A failed trial-goer who chose Rowlet ended up in Team Skull, which had ties to the Aether Foundation. Because of this, his Rowlet, now a Decidueye, would end up in Ultra Space. However, Decidueye ended up competing with Guzzlord, who could easily repel not only Decidueye itself, but also its arrows. However, as time passed, Decidueye developed extremely sharp, metallic feathers and durable armor that still allows it to attack swiftly in melee combat, allowing it surprise Guzzlord and take the food for itself. However, it's still able to use its natural archery abilities, though it prefers to use them when perched on unsuspecting Guzzlord. Guzzlord are mostly chosen because they are enormous, easy to climb, and comfortable. However, UB-24 would vastly prefer perching on Mudsdale instead of Guzzlord when using its archery skills, as shown when brought out of Ultra Space.
Possible moveset(s):
Flame Orb Wallbreaker
Decidueye-Ultra @ Flame Orb
Ability: Guts
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly / Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Sucker Punch
- Sacred Sword / Pursuit
- Iron Head
This set is a classic instance of Flame Orb/Guts on a physical attacker and an attacking stat booster on a wallbreaker. After enough setting up, it should be capable of wreaking havoc, slicing through the opposition like a hot wakizashi through butter. While it does struggle against Buzzwole, having it be Adamant instead can make use for just that. Sucker Punch is STAB priority and Iron Head is its other STAB. Sacred Sword is coverage, though Pursuit can be opted for instead in case the opponent has a very unfavorable matchup against Decidueye-Ultra.
Competitive Placement: Its base 149 Attack is very frightening, especially when one considers that it's even greater than the likes of Landorus-T and Megagross. Base 97 Speed throws it into a speed tier that's alright, allowing it to slice open defensive Pokémon on both sides of the spectrum, though quite the number of Pokémon still outspeed Decidueye-Ultra. This combination would yield a very dangerous sweeper already, but Swords Dance can make it even more lethal, though Paralysis could prove problematic for Decidueye-Ultra due to the cut speed and chances of complete paralysis.Name: UB-25 "Abyssal Knight"
New Stats: 103/131/139/43/113/41
New Typing: Fire-Steel
Added Moves: Heavy Slam, Gyro Ball, Smart Strike, Flash Cannon, Heat Crash, Curse, Iron Tail, Iron Head, Metal Burst, Meteor Mash, Mirror Shot, Stone Edge, Iron Defense, Fire Punch [REMOVED: Dark Pulse, Crunch, Heat Wave, Bite, Throat Chop, Darkest Lariat, Fury Swipes, Growl, Lick, Acrobatics, Leech Life]
Abilities: Flame Body, Flash Fire
Appearance: Incineroar's now coated in metallic armor, entirely red. The region around the flame belt is yellow and the closer the region is to the navel, the more melty the flame belt region is. Its helmet has massive horns where the ears would be, and in the helmet's eye sockets, only blackness can be seen, with a yellow, glowing light in each. The tip of its tail has a metal spike ball. (Height: 1.9m/6'3", 2.2m/7'3" counting horns; Weight: 215.4kg/474.9lb)
Justification: In Alola, new trial-goers traditionally recieve and start out with Rowlet, Litten, or Popplio. A failed trial-goer who chose Litten ended up in Team Skull, which had ties to the Aether Foundation. Because of this, his Litten, now an Incineroar, would end up in Ultra Space. Incineroar, fixated on attention, tried to wrestle against all the UBs. After learning from the mistakes it made wrestling against Nihilego and Kartana, it found armor from fallen Celesteela and Kartana, taking it for its own.
Possible moveset(s):
Set Up:
Incineroar-Ultra @ Leftovers
Ability: Flash Fire
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Def
Adamant / Impish Nature
- Swords Dance / Bulk Up
- Meteor Mash
- Fire Punch
- Stone Edge
This set simply uses its absurd physical bulk to its advantage, taking physical hits while setting up attack boosts. Bulk Up can be used as an alternative to allow Incineroar-Ultra to boost its Defense even more than it already does, though it does weaken the Attack boosts. Also, with an Impish nature, Incineroar-Ultra's guaranteed to live an Earthquake from a Buzzwole, so long as it doesn't crit. This is even before a Bulk Up. Meteor Mash is STAB that can buff Incineroar-Ultra's Attack even further, Fire Punch is also STAB, and Stone Edge is used as coverage. Flash Fire allows for switches into predicted fire-type moves.
Competitive Placement: Incineroar-Ultra is an almighty tank with 101/139/113 defenses, but slap on an Attack stat of 131 and now-armored El Tigre's only got to worry about Pokémon with Earthquake or strong Special moves.Name: UB-54 "Frost"
Stats: 79/83/113/79/89/83 [BST: 522]
New Typing: Ice-Ghost
Added Moves: Frost Breath, Aurora Veil, Hail, Powder Snow, Icicle Crash, Ice Shard, Icicle Spear, Sheer Cold [REMOVED: Flamethrower, Fire Blast, Flame Charge, Will-O-Wisp, Flame Wheel, Flare Blitz, Thunderbolt, Thunder]
Abilities: Lightning Rod, Refrigerate, Ice Body
Appearance: This Marowak, once an Alolan Marowak, has the tips of its weapon covered in a frosty aura. All the maroon on it is a dark blue instead, with the lighter shades being a pure blue. The spike near the end of its tail is frosted over, with more such spikes along the vertabrae being formed by icicles. It is now coated in a very thin layer of ice. (Height: 1.0m/3'03", Weight: 35.0kg/76.2lb)
Justification: When an Alolan Marowak ended up in Ultra Space, sent by Aether Foundation scientists who were curious and wanted to see how Marowak developed its Regional Variant, it ended up in a very cold region. After spending some time in the cold region, it eventually converted the burning flames of its spirit into frigid cold. Now, it isn't very comfortable with its former habitat, but it remains willing to adapt.
Possible Moveset(s):
Swords Dance
Marowak-Ultra @ Thick Club
Ability: Refrigerate
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Double-Edge
- Shadow Bone
- Brick Break
Refrigerate Double-Edge is by far one of the most dangerous tricks UB-54 has up its sleeve, and with a Swords Dance boost, it can prove deadly. Shadow Bone and Brick Break are the other STAB and coverage, respectively.
Competitive Usage: While its defensive stats are hampered by its lackluster defensive typing, it can use a Thick Club, thus seeing potential as a Wallbreaker, as the Thick Club buffs its Attack to the equivalent of 215-216.(and just for fun for the ffa slate ultra rowlet/dartrix are both dark-flying and ultra litten/torracat are both fire-steel, with the same abilities as their final forms)Name: UB-79 "Needles"
New Stats: 127/103/113/29/109/89
New Typing: Electric-Ground
Added Moves: Earthquake, Bulldoze, Sandstorm, Sand Tomb, Mud Sport, Sand Attack, Explosion [REMOVED: Fell Stinger, Grass Knot, Present, Fake Out]
Abilities: Lightning Rod, Sturdy, Filter
Appearance: Togedemaru now looks to be tan and brown instead of white and gray, without any shine. The quills are still the same colors, but remain concealed instead of revealed all the time.
Justification: When Togedemaru was sent into Ultra Space, it was hunted down by Xurkitree due to the latter craving for electricity as a meal. Eventually, the ill Togedemaru's electrical organs were completely dried, and it couldn't muster any more electricity due to the threat of Xurkitree striking again. However, it came up with an idea... that required it to face its fears. Togedemaru semi-reluctantly rolled around in dirt, then sand so that both can hold together. After repeatedly washing, then re-coating itself, it could now stand up to Xurkitree. As Togedemaru's skin was covered in insulative dirt, Xurkitree couldn't leech Togedemaru's electricity anymore, so Togedemaru had an easy time defeating the Xurkitree.
Possible moveset(s):
Defensive:
Togedemaru-Ultra @ Leftovers
Ability: Filter
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Impish Nature
- Wish
- Toxic
- Protect
- Bulldoze / Nuzzle
This set takes advantage of Togedemaru-Ultra's rather crazy physical bulk, with slight investment in the special bulk. Wish and Protect are for healing. Toxic is for damage over time. Bulldoze and Nuzzle are there to slow down fast sweepers, though Bulldoze risks being unable to hit airborne Pokémon and Nuzzle on a healthy Poké that isn't Electric-type results in no toxic for you.
Place in competitive: A bulky wall with excellent defenses and Wish. Can stall.
Above two are for the Starters slate, and bottom two were for the FFA.
