Tapu Koko: I already gave my opinions on the look, so this is gonna be 100% competitive. It's ability is going to be really interesting. Electric terrain is good, but is surprisingly hard to set up, which is why it's ability is going to be so good. Base 570 is pretty good, especially for a non-main legendary
Tapu Fini: This is probably my second favorite guardian. The fact that it's a water type helps, and it looks very elegant. Like Tapu Koko, it has a great ability and good stats, especially for a legendary quartet.
Tapu Lele: The cutest of the guardians, and my favorite. Not much to say about this one, pretty much the same as the others.
Tapu Bulu: My least favorite guardian, although I still like it. It seems to be physically oriented, with high attack and defense, and has a good moveset to support that.
Cosmog: Cosmog is cute I guess. Unfortunately, it's as bad as Magikarp. Nay, worse than Magikarp! At least Magikarp evolves at level 20, and learns some attacking moves! Cosmog only knows teleport, and it evolves at level 35! Talk about tough to train!
Cosmoem: Even when it evolves it gains no redemption! It gains the move cosmic power sure, BUT THAT'S A STATUS MOVE!
Solgaleo: Solgaleo looks cool. It has good stats, and decent movepool, but it suffers the same fate as Golisopod. An ability that is the same thing as another ability.
Lunala: I kinda don't like Lunala as much as Solgaleo, but I can't pinpoint why. It just doesn't look very bat-like I guess? It's pretty similar to Solgaleo in stats, just the values get swapped around to create a more Special-Based attacker.
Nihlego: Rock/poison is an interesting typing. Especially for a jellyfish. I do like it's appearance though. It's odd how only the top is transparent.
Buzzwole: Not one of my favorite Ultra Beasts. It's weird name and appearance kinda turn me away. I've heard it's pretty good in competitive though.
Pheromosa: Probably my favorite ultra beast. It's shiny is really nice, and it's great in competitive, with high speed, a good moveset, and good attack.
Xirkitree: Xirkitree has insane Special Attack. 173! Unfortunately, it has mediocre stat distribution for the rest of the stats. Thunderbolt/Dazzling Gleam/Tail Glow/Toxic is a great moveset.
Celesteela: Celesteela has an interesting type distribution, allowing a large amount of viable movesets. Steel/Flying is an interesting type combination. It learns a lot of moves and has great coverage.
Kartana: Another one of my favorites, Kartana is a great physical attacker. If you thought Xurkitree had high special attack, Kartana has even more attack. Not to mention a movepool full of great moves.
Guzzlord: Guzzlord is a very interesting pokemon. I like the lore behind it, even though there isn't much. And it has 233 in HP! If only it had more defense. HP isn't as good with terrible defense.
Necrozma: A very balanced pokemon overall, capable of hitting with both physical and special moves. It has 600 BST, 30 more than the ultra beasts. Prism armor is a great ability, and it has a great moveset too! It's shiny isn't great, but that doesn't detract much from it's awesome appearance.
Next entry will not be about sun or moon!
