Give Aura Sphere and Air Slash. I'm tired of having to evolve into a fat blimp to get its best moves

Moves wouldn't save this fucker from being an irredeemable shitmon, you might as well ask for a 50+ BST buff as well

That would make it have value outside of being a stepping stone to Togekiss so no.

>>59270696
It's stats look like ledians' except having a slightly higher defense and special attack in exchange for being much slower. What the fuck do you think togetic is going to pull off even if you gave it Light of Ruin?

Just beat the original gold with this eggy boy on the squad. Do not recommend.

He is a big fluffy plane unlike this scrawny rotten egg

why did they even do it anyway? What is the point of togetic? Togepi is marketable and cute. But Togetic is reasonably ugly (at least its old sprites) and it's got an objectively weird design (it looks like a bowling pin man with wings and horns) and it's particularly weak (until gen 4 where it can evolve again, thankfully) and, more than anything else, it doesn't DO anything. You are given this egg, told it's rare and special, hatch it, say "wow this sucks in battle once it evolves it'll be stronger" then it evolves and you say "wow this sucks still I'm putting it in the pc", box it, then try it again in hgss where iirc you can't even evolve it til kanto and it's definitely not worth it by then. And at no point do they ever elaborate on why it's rare and special. No ruins of alph moment, no special interaction in the story, no hidden dungeon you need it to unlock, it's just a random weak mon that everyone who actually uses the full 6 slots in his team in-game boxes and forgets about.

Why? What was the goal? They didn't even give it a new z move or mega or gmax form or ANYTHING and even gave mega clef its typing. Why? This is so retarded

Togepi was the introduction to the egg mechanic and Togetic is a friendship evolution also introduced in Gen 2.
>And at no point do they ever elaborate on why it's rare and special. No ruins of alph moment, no special interaction in the story, no hidden dungeon you need it to unlock,
Yeah because this was back in Gen 2 where the player character wasn't god's favorite child and you were just a trainer going on an adventure. Togetic doesn't need to be anything more than what's given to you because it was designed before the concept of special OC mons with ultra unique, optimized typings, minmaxed stats and broken abilities that are 5 in one or some shit.
You kids are so hopped up on Pokemon being sold as products for you to get hype over that the concept of a Pokemon just being a fucking Pokemon you get to partner up with on your adventure is a foreign concept. Genuinely grim to propose the idea of Togetic being proto Lucario or some shit, you should honestly be embarrassed to have posted this.

this is called "bad writing"

Why fucking bother making it a super special one-off egg given to the player then instead of just making it a wild encounter mon? If they wanted to make a plot-relevant mon they shouldn't have made it underwhelming, useless, and irrelevant to the plot. You are explicitly told that it's special and rare and then nothing happens.

I dunno, why Eevee? Why starters? Why Tyrouge? Shit, why any gift Pokemon that you only get one of? Not like the Wynaut egg you get in Lavaridge town is worth anything. Honestly, why even bother giving anything if there's no epic lore payoff? Pokemon games should only have cool and based mons essential to the plot like Lucario and Eevee and Charizard, apparently.
> You are explicitly told that it's special and rare and then nothing happens.
Something does happen though, you a Pokemon you can't get anywhere else. Even if you knew what a Togepi was, I don't believe a single trainer other has a Togetic.

This might be a foreign concept to you, but back before they stripped any and all pushback from these games, some Pokemon actually used to be hard to find! The concept of a Pokemon being "rare" wasn't completely thrown in the trash yet, so a Pokemon being the only copy you could get still had some value, even when it wasn't a legendary. Wow!

Misty's Togepi is like partner Pokemon in LGPE where they will follow you around but they aren't necessarily part of the team.

>epic lore payoff?
why does "finish the plot you start" have to mean "turn the player into a god" or whatever to you?

Togetic defender here, I've used the Shadow Togepi from XD in doubles for Emerald's Battle Frontier & Colosseum's Battle Mode and it's a surprisingly strong support mon. The AI really struggles with Follow Me and Togetic also gets Helping Hand, Soft-boiled, Wish, Safeguard, Sweet Kiss, Yawn, Encore and dual-screens. It's surprisingly bulky when fully invested into HP and its defenses on top of having a ground immunity to let its partner shit all over the AI with Earthquake spam. Togetic is basically Ledian, but actually useful.

Togetic is so fucking ugly. Like a lethargic aids sperm. Thank god togekiss replaced that abomination
