Speaking of the trainer list, do the names Ryuki and Molayne mean anything to people who haven't skipped games or are there just two randoms with impressive teams only a few levels short of Red and Blue?

False, it was confirmed when they were first introduced that they will have different stats from their Kanto forms.

Alolan Sandslash's description mentions it being tougher and slower than normal Sandslash iirc.

This gen is absurdly slow though.

Like, almost the entirety of the 'slowest 50 pokemon' list will be Gen VII dudes.

Doesn't look like it. Just different abilities and, possibly, different moves.

Pyukumyu now officially has the slowest speed stat, with 5, narrowly edging out Munchlax who had 10.

:psyduck:


Also, this dump doesn't have Forme stats so shields down Minior/Lycanroc-M may have different stats.

Yeah, I'm just sad because it has a great stat spread while the other cool looking water/bug... doesn't.

132 Sp. Def with mediocre everything else is just weird.

What is this. I mean it's no Luvdisc, but, what. What is this. Why is this? It's as slow as Shuckle but with half the defenses and still not enough Attack to actually do anything. Why did they think this thing needed to be? :psyduck:

There's also apparently a new status move; Speed Swap, trades speed with the target. Which could be interesting considering how many slow bulky dudes we got.

Everything this gen can take some hits.

This world only remembers the results!




Is there a chance they're doing a total rebalance on all Pokémon for gen VII? So these dudes look slow compared to gen VI and down but that's because we don't have their info yet?

Or is everything in gen vii a beautifully designed garbage rear end in a top hat monster
