I have a favour to ask. Would anyone be willing to part with a male Mimikyu that has learnt the move Play Rough? I'm in Malie City and while Wonder Trading for fun I received a female Mimikyu at Lvl 57. I'd like to breed a Mimikyu that starts off with Play Rough (so that I don't need to raise up a Mimikyu or wait until I can control the one I received) so that I can put one on my team. That being said, I don't really have much in the way of trade-worthy Pokemon outside of some (presumably hacked) Shiny Legendary Pokemon and a Contrary Snivy, so I can't really reciprocate the favour.

Gen V was the nadir of starter design which was made more stark becaus it is flanked by the two overall best starter groups in Gens IV and VI.

It's still not great in the games, where you can't get the hidden ability. Contrary is hilariously broken in the early game though, everything has Growl or Leer.

It was their performance in battle that was mediocre at best. It didn't help that there were so many better Fire and Grass types around in Unova. Samurott barely escaped that fate, but only because Unova was awful for Water types options to replace it.

Samurott has an okay design, but the fact that it suddenly goes quadrapedal after the awesomeness of Dewott is really baffling.

Chieves posted:Samurott has an okay design, but the fact that it suddenly goes quadrupedal after the awesomeness of Dewott is really baffling. It starts off as a Japanese blacksmith. Then forges it's own sword and becomes a samurai. Then becomes a full-on shogun warlord complete with doofy rear end mustache. It goes quadrupedal because it's becoming it's own mount in the process. It's the kind of wacky logic that Pokemon loves and I'm a big fan of it. ZenMasterBullshit posted:I dunno how anyone could look at Contary Leaf storm and go "Hmm yes this doesn't seem.all that useful". You got me there. It's a useful combination, I'll admit, but it's movepool is hot garbage. It really needs a second typing and a large variation of special moves so it doesn't have to rely on Hidden Power Fire of all things.

You rarely ever see an evolutionary line where the final form ends up being smaller then the previous forms, with only Bellossom and Porygon-Z coming to mind.

Frank wore glasses, a denim shirt and brightly coloured tartan trousers And now Frank's legacy now lives on in the form of a fiery wrestling heel tiger.
