>Lorewise, Gigalith's main method of attacking is firing energy beams>It's a physical attacker for some reason?
>>59237646And for some reason sandslash and mega skarmory don't have tough claws ceruledge and armarouge don't have sharpness and mega launcher what else?
>>59237646hitting someone is an energy beam when you think about itbut fire is a chemical reaction that causes the cells and any other matter to break downthats why bro
>>59237646Because game freak are retards, who don’t even want to make Pokémon
>>59237646Unova copy Kanto. Unova know no why Kanto do things.
>>59237813>Unova copy Kanto.True.>Unova know no why Kanto do thingsWrong, they knew exactly why the primary representative of a physical-attacking type (even after split, rock has 3 physical attacks for each special attack at best) was primarily a physical attacker. Its moveset at the time would be:>power gem>maybe ancient powerunless they did the nu-gen specialty and gave it a super broken signature move.
>>59237828Adding new special rock moves for competitive variety wasn't that hard, they just didn't bother doing it.
>>59237646>Pokemon has a genuinely good opposite attacking movepool>the stat for them is unusably lowThis shit annoys me to an unreasonable degree.
>>59237646This was the same gen that has Escavalier's deck talk about how fast it is but its slow as shit.
>>59237898Gourgeist is the biggest offender. Why make it physical when Trevanant existed in the same gen?
>>59238581Counterpart mons, retard. Kids were not supposed to have those 2, so they just mirrored eachother.
>>59239059>Counterpart monsExcept they’re not even version exclusives you fuckwit. Try to separate facts from headcanons next time
>>59237646Comp, campaign, and fantasy are three different things.In its environment, it hunts primarily with SpATK based moves, since nothing is dumb enough to walk up to it.>why use power gem when it learns rock blast and rock slide?Who knows. It’s also supposed to “fire beams fueled by is absorption of solar energy, but only on sunny days”, but it doesn’t learn solar beam naturally, or by user incarnation for several generations now. Same goes for its coverage with fire or electric etc: totally non existent,
