>Samurott gets a regional form>Emboar gets a mega evolutionHow are the Serperior bros feeling?
Getting a regional replacement is the biggest insult a pokémon can get and it’s always funny seing sammushitters try to pretend it’s a good thing for their precious pooltoy.
>>58186609>Getting a regional replacement is the biggest insult a pokémon can getThis. And It's even worse when the regional evolves but the original don't.
>>58186597I bet she gives the best hugs
>>58186609fpbp
Serperior doesn't need a regional. What it needs are MORE FUCKING MOVES
>>58186720Meganium too.Pokefags are too stupid to realize this.
>>58186597Serperior is one of the most viable starters in the franchise. Snek can wait. This is the nigga that needs attention.
>>58186788Actually, Meganium is already a perfect Pomémon. It doesn't need anything more
>>58186878>pomémonI however am not perfect. I need a more responsive internal spellchecker
>>58186609I like Samurott and I'm happy with its new form. I'm not sure why you think I'm supposed to be upset.
Serp is great though, it's set for life so long as it has Contrary Leaf Storm, >>58186720>>58186788Why does GF hate giving Grass mons coverage so much? Every single water type has had Ice Beam since the dawn of time but I can count the grass Pokemon that get stuff like Thunderbolt, Earth Power or Power Gem on one hand.
>>58186926Because Grass types get access to Leech Seed, Stun Spore, and other useful support moves at the cost of generally poor coverage and Water has no utility moves at all but generally decent coverage. Types are supposed to have unique strengths and weaknesses.
>>58186790Sinnoh starters are never getting megas, regionals, gigantamax or anything else.
>>58186597both are fine but i like regionals waaaay more
>>58186597It's already overpowered. It will probably get a gmax in the next legends game
>>58187017Also worth nothing, TPC and Gamefreak want people to forget about Sinnoh in general, they are embarrassed about what they did that gen, and BDSP was made haphazardly so people would shut up about Sinnoh remakes. Hisui was made to replace Sinnoh entirely. The one gen 4 mon they do pay attention to is Lucario who is a Hoenn mon who debuted in the Advanced Generation anime.
>>58186597I expect serperior to get whatever the next main gimmick is gonna be. Custom moves, maybe?
>>58186938You say that when Incineroar gets constant additions to its movepool every game it's in.
>>58187028>TPC and Gamefreak want people to forget about Sinnoh in generalSo that's why they developed an entire spinoff game to expand the lore of a shit region. And now that everyone knows that XY & megas were a mistake, we're getting a spinoff with brand-new megas, so nobody will think about them ever again. That's real 5D chess level strategy there.>/s
>>58187061>So that's why they developed an entire spinoff game to expand the lore of a shit region.As I said earlier, they developed an entire spinoff to replace that region. Kalos in ZA still gets to be Kalos, but in PLA we get "Hisui", a totally different region with only a few references to Sinnoh here and there.
>>58187045It's a Dark type and Dark is also a type with a lot of utility.
>>58187072> a totally different region with only a few references to Sinnoh here and therePlay the game
>>58186597Serperior doesn't need anything. It's already miles better than the other 2.
>>58187111Once it loses Tera it's back to being shit. It's only offensive moves are Leaf Storm and Dragon Pulse may I remind you.
>>58187121Contrary serp is an objectively strong niche for a starter. It's one of the strongest ones in the vanilla state.
>>58187104By that logic Incineroar should have a limited movepool.Rillaboom too, but Pokefags would shriek about how the two "would be dragged down to Meganium's level" and cry genocide.
>>58187121Interesting how despite Serperior and Sceptile are guilty of the same shit as Meganium they're given immunity from the same criticism that Meganium is crucified for.Pokefags are biased and hypocritical as fuck, and "Meganium bad" is a fucking circlejerk that bloats the video list of the average CuckTuber because not a single one is capable of creating any original content.
>>58187158Because those mons are meant to be cool, intimidating attackers. Meganium is clearly defensive and passive in both its design and moveset. Yes, Swords Dance Meganium exists, but why would I even want to use that over Sceptile or Serperior even if they are technically weaker due to questionable design choices?
>>58186597Serperior got the best hidden ability out of the Unova starters so it evens out.
>>58186597Serperior quite literally got Contrary. I think that's a win all its own desu.
>>58187109>play game>starters aren’t from sinnoh >professor isn’t from the sinnoh>the only returning character isn’t from sinnoh>all the hisui fanfare for the pokemon is for kanto/johto/unova/kalos etc>map isn’t called sinnoh>region itself is an empty wasteland that doesn’t resemble sinnoh>random ancestors for other region characters but certain important sinnoh characters are absent i.e beni obviously being a callback to the hoenn rival wally, yet the sinnoh rival barry has no presence in the game whatsoever >none of the ride pokemon are from sinnoh>none of the noble pokemon are from sinnoh>origin dialkga and palkia are shitmons that look even more retarded than their regular forms>the hardest fight in the game are genies not from sinnoh>only “revisit” to not have a return in the anime or pokespehe’s right though lol
>serperior finally gets its HA>/vp/ says it will be a nothingburger>shoots up to OU from shitmon hell>3 months later /vp/ is swearing the new toy syndrome will wear off any day now>present day it's undebatably one of the best mons in ORAS and very very good in SM tooI will never forget this
>>58186597Ser-perior
>>58187188It's called adapting to the meta. People were probably hyping up shit like Tornadus and Talonflame. But lo and behold, type advantage is but a small fraction of the pro scene.
>>58186609>getting something is badconvince yourself>only Pokémon they hate receive regional variantsSure, like Arcanine
>>58186597Lessons learned: don't be a jewish vorenigger.
>>58186720This. To have a decent moveset for him in Gen 5 you are forced to use the move tutor in BW2
>>58187188>very very good in SM tooIt's UU and not even usable in OU. Even nerfed Talonflame beats it easy. Tera is literally its saving grace right now (hence why Tera should have been banned the first chance they had)
>>58187694retard
>>58187694See>>58187322
>>58186609>Pretend
>>58186597>Got Leaf Storm with the absolute most broken ability to go with it. Serperior would Unironically get ruined by a Mega because it would change its perfect ability. Can't imagine a regional outperforming it either unless it was intentionally broken.
>>58187843>Gf would rather shill the cooler, stronger and more marketable replacement than the original flopthanks for proving my point anon.
Give her Draco Meteor
>>58186597It's the best Unova starter, it doesn't need a gimmick form to be good.
>>58187888> It's the best Unova starterthe lowest of bar
>>58187893The OP is literally only talking about the Unova starters you fucking goalpost mover
>>58187848They rather shill it because it’s both newer and harder to get. Not rocket science
>>58187694>Hence why Tera should have been banned the first chance they hadI don't think tera is likely to carry over to any next gen. Shedinja can't exist in the Pokedex if tera exists.
>>58187934Omni Rings in Champions.
>>58187934>electric Tera Shedinja holding air balloon>still dies to sandstorm chip damage
>>58187694>It's UU and not even usable in OU
>>58187914>because it's newerThey wouldn't never ever shill the original one though.
>>58187694God forbid smogontards adapting. They need to fight so the competitive scenario remains as unchanged as possible for decades to come>>58187990Because Sandstorm is so pervasive…
>>58187934You realize they can just code Wonder Guard to only consider the type matchups of the base types right? Electric Shedinja could still die to ember.
Enjoy your G-mememax Serperior in the next Legends game, I guess (lol)?
>>58188086>They wouldn't never ever shill the original one though.Agreed, glad we're on the same page. They wouldn't never shill it.
>>58186720>>58186926Serperior and plenty of other grass types should have weather ball but its distribution is limited for absolutely no reason despite all sorts of random shit getting it that has nothing to do with weatherTropius even has chlorophyll but is cucked out of it for some reason (should probably have heat wave, too)
I remember Serperior learning Aqua Tail because I used it in a Sword Dance meme set, but apparently I can't learn it anymore
>>58187990>electric Tera Shedinja holding air balloonHeh, nice try kiddo*breaks your mold and outrages you to death*
>>58188305>Using it as a budget SceptileCalm Mind is better
>>58188285So you admit that regional replacement are humiliation ritual then
