Tropius is my top 3 favorite Pokémon of all time, but I'd be lying if I said I actually had fun using this thing in-game.

bring over frostbite from pla and replace freeze with it

I don't know why, but I've specifically been wanting a snow macaque Pokémon for a while now. Munkidori is about the closest we've gotten to one so far, and while I quite like Munkidori because it's funny, it's not quite a "snow" macaque. I think a cuttlefish Pokémon would be much appreciated as...

Charjabug and Dusclops for obvious reasons.

Kitakami has Charjabug, so that's really all I could've asked for. Seriously, though, as someone who's into traditional Japanese aesthetics and folklore, almost too much so, I enjoy Kitakami and its lore. The battles were surprisingly challenging too (if only because I was using a less than...

I'm quite glad that Poltchageist pushes the envelope for convergent Pokémon: whereas the Wiglett and Toedscool lines had the same morphologies as their Kantonian counterparts but were based on completely different concepts, Poltchageist is similar to Sinistea in almost every way, including...

My brother once came across a listing online for Charjabug and Pyukumuku plushies and sent them to me unprompted, and it's because of him that I have them in the first place, so I think my brother knows a decent enough amount about Pokémon to know what my favorites are, but not enough to discuss...

Wo-Chien. It's such a silly little guy, and the way the Treasures of Ruin are implemented in SV is a breath of fresh air from other legendaries.

I prefer Paradox Pokémon on a conceptual level, but I think Ultra Beasts are better in terms of execution. I'm a fan of both, though.

I guess the only thing I'd change about Charjabug would be its color schemes (both normal and Shiny)? They're good and all, but I've never been a big fan of olive or scarlet.

I've had this thought many times when a Pokémon's in-game viability is brought up, and especially in competitive circles, "weak" Pokémon are usually bemoaned, with many people begging for "buffs" so that they might be "worth using," and a similar reaction occurs to the opposite extreme, with...

That's the thing about passive damage, though; in most cases it's based on the percentage of the target's max HP, not the user's attack stat, because let's be real: if passive damage wasn't like this, defensive Pokémon would be much, MUCH more annoying to deal with, especially Steel- and...

No*. (There is a distinction to be made between glitches and exploits, but for the sake of brevity I'm lumping them together because they're usually given the same treatment.) I think of it like this: if it's possible in the base game without the use of any external tools, such as Action...

Pretty important, I'd say. I tend to fixate on it, whether to diversify my team, or, conversely, make them all the same type. If I have one, two, or six Pokémon on my team with the same type, I'm fine, but anything other than those three numbers is an oversight on my part.

The starter type combos are limited to one Pokémon/evolutionary line each, and it's especially criminal that the only Water/Fire-type is a Mythical Pokémon. So come on, Game Freak: give the fans what they want. Seriously, the fact that we have only one line of Grass/Water-types is baffling...
