Sap Sipper boosts physical Attack, not Special Attack. Seeing as how Drampa only has 60 base Attack, that's not really the best for it.
Just so this isn't a one-liner, let me talk about another Pokemon... or rather, a Pokemon and its regional variant:
Ah, Stunfisk. By far one of the ugliest Pokemon that GameFreak has ever had the audacity to churn out. Its facial expression and cry are very reminiscent of the one kid in preschool that shit their pants constantly and would wait proudly for the teacher to discover their "oopsie". Well, design is subjective, maybe it's secretly a beast in-game!
...is what I would say if it wasn't available just before the
seventh gym in BW1 and
postgame exclusive in BW2. And even if its availability wasn't so bad, why would you want to use this thing when there are so many better Ground and Electric types available in Unova? The Sandile, Tympole, Blitzle, and Joltik lines are much better than Stunfisk and are available much earlier. For a while, Stunfisk seemed doomed to be just another example of Gen 5's so-called "poor designs".
But then along can Generation 8, which not only gave regional variants to old Pokemon, but it gave new evolutions to some of those regional variants as well! And would you look at that- Stunfisk got a regional variant! I can't wait to see what cool new evolution they gave to Galarian Stunfisk! If the regional variants of Linoone, Farfetch'd, and Corsola could get evolutions, surely Stunfisk is guaranteed to get one as we-
...What do you mean, Galarian Stunfisk is still a single stager?
Well, at least it has a cool new ability that causes it to change its type in Terrains! Maybe that means it has new forms, similar to Castf-
...It doesn't have new forms? Bummer.
Hey, new tutor moves just got added in the DLC, and one of these moves works perfectly with Galarian Stunfisk's new ability! And since regular Stunfisk is a special attacker, Galarian Stunfisk should be able to utilize Terrain Pulse perfe-
...They changed its stats so that it's now a physical attacker?
bangs head on wall
At least in the lower tiers, both forms of Stunfisk aren't half-bad- they actually make decent Stealth Rock setters thanks to their good defensive typings. And Galarian Stunfisk is actually a solid design- I dig the bear trap aspect. But
man, did Game Freak screw the pooch when it came to this thing, especially its Galarian form.
