55 base speed means its dogshit outside of trick room teams
>>
>>59142457
which is funny since they cut ursaluna, meaning trick room teams are fucking dead.
>>
What contact moves would it even want to use? It’s best STABs are EQ and Poltergeist.

>>59142419
It got headlong rush

Drain punch for longevity. Elemental punches for coverage.
>>
>>59142516

UNSEEN FIST WAS NERFED
CAN'T HAVE ANYTHING

What's the nerf?
>>
>>59143035
It's the same effect as piercing drill. So 25% damage
>>
>>59142366this mother fukka has the mega and the moves now. DO YOU BELIEVE!! anons DO YOU BELIEVE!!!!
>>
>>59142366
I see two fists in the picture, though. Is there a third?

>>59142604
Why did froslass get the strongest new mega then?

>Wants to get hit to deal burns
>No synthesis
>Leech seed absolutely nerfed to the ground
They gave him a cool ability but then made sure he'd never be useful
>>
>>59145095
The leech seed nerf is the most perplexing of the balance changes that I've seen, and I generally think most of the status changes are positive ones. 1/16th DOT/healing is worth absolutely nothing. It was BARELY functional as a setup turn for subprotect, outside of that it has no utility whatsoever, it was already a move almost nothing in the game ran. The one case it was abused, it would be easier to just take the move away from that mon than nerf it.

>>59145106
Sorry, but the King of the Harvest needs it for themes and such
>>
>>59145106
Tropius and Garganacl were both viable at different points in SV because of DoT+durability+wide guard I bet they just don’t want that to be good because it makes games take longer.

Salt cure was also nerfed but I don't get why they nerfed leech seed to match it. Salt cure was a problem since it did double damage to a lot of types, vs anything else it was fine
>>
>>59145137
>Viable
Viable != broken. Tropius in Reg H peaked at what, #75 in usage stats? God forbid one fucking pokemon was able to use a move effectively can't have that.
>>
>>59145311
Blame the bulky ice rider sets that ran leech seed
>>
>>59145319
Just fucking take it away from Calyrex
>>
>>59145322
Nah

>Do the people at Gamefreak have brains?
No

>Gallade is weaker than it's base form
>Feraligatr is weaker than it's base form (outside dragon moves)
>Golurk is weaker than it's base form
>Chandelure is weaker than it's base form
>Emboar is weaker than it's base form
>Staraptor is probably weaker than it's base form unless it gets an offensive ability
>Pyroar is probably weaker than it's base form unless it gets an offensive ability
>Dragalge is probably weaker than it's base form unless it gets an offensive ability

Others like greninja are also weaker but they have much higher speed to warrant it, so it's like specs+scarf there.
The others are too slow still to care about it so they end up being weaker than specs/band/life orb alternatives with their better non-mega abilities

Remember when megas are comparable to legendaries, what happened why are these such trash now. Even ultra beasts and paradox pokemon are better
>>
>>59145331
Yes.
>>
>>59142366
>loses the GOAT Iron Fist
>to get an ability that only matters for doubles with their protect spam
lol, lmao
my condolences my bro
