Toughest Totem Pokemon
 
Which totem pokemon you fought was the hardest? For me, It be Lurantis. The Solar blade just hits hard and Castform using sunny day is making it slightly hard to win since it keep spamming Synthesis

i could not get that wishiwashi to go down!

SirBoglor February 3rd, 2017 9:04 AM

The Lurantis and Mimikyu were rough. Otherwise, they were cake.

Sylphiel February 3rd, 2017 9:57 AM

Definitely the Mimikyu, though that was mostly my fault as I underestimated it and ended up going in with a team that was really weak to ghost attacks. Oops. Took a few tries to come up with a tactic to finally beat it with what I had, which is more than the one-shots I'd had so far.

Lurantis k.oed my team a couple of times and then Mimikyu just the once. The rest of the Totem Pokémon were pretty easy for me so I'd say Lurantis and Mimikyu.

Ducolamia February 3rd, 2017 11:48 AM

Mimikyu can GTFO. I saw the trailers and thought like the rest of the Alola Pokemon it would be super slow, yet bulky....NOPE. Outspeeds all my Pokemon due to 96 base speed, tanks my Moonblasts from my Primarina multiple times, and summons the most annoying back up Pokemon like Gengar and Haunter packing Hypnosis. It really stinks, but so satisfying to beat.

I always struggled with Tapu Koko :<

Nick February 3rd, 2017 2:12 PM

I guess I'll say Lurantis. They're all relatively easy, though.

Lunar February 3rd, 2017 3:32 PM

I actually found Wishiwashi the toughest, but it was mainly because my team consisted of a Torracat, Horsea and Trumbeak at the time and I kinda struggled.

Dagger31198 February 3rd, 2017 3:55 PM

Mimikyu.

Not because the fight itself was really hard, I just wasted my Z move on the first turn and it went downhill from there because I skipped every trainer I could and was underlevelled.

Kikaito plush February 4th, 2017 5:39 AM

the toughest one was Mimikyu

viper8890 February 4th, 2017 6:37 AM

Mimikyu for me. The reason was that I used my z move on first turn unknowingly of it's disguise ability. The rest were easy. Kommo-o also troubled a little. Lurantis was nothing for torracat and trumbeak.

Rengoku February 4th, 2017 8:10 AM

Wishiwashi was toughest for me.
It was the only Totem that made my heart raced.

Raticate was easy, Salazzle was easy, Lurantis was easy because I killed her before she summoned Castform, Vikavolt isn't tough, Mimikyu was annoying but nonetheless possessed nothing of an challenge and Kommo-o was superbly easy because I 1-hit-KO it with just a Rough Play.

Sothis February 4th, 2017 8:20 AM

Wishiwashi was tough to faint, but that's it.
I had the most issues with Lurantis over all, it was too fast for my team!

Kawaii Shoujo Duskull February 4th, 2017 2:04 PM

Lurantis was the hardest one, actually managing to KO my team several times before I finally beat it. Wishiwashi was second since it was just difficult to take down(also alomamola showing up didn't help).

Hikari_x February 5th, 2017 8:28 PM

I had the most trouble with Lurantis.. and then Mimikyu.

smocks February 5th, 2017 10:22 PM

I'd easily swept through the Totem Pokémon but the one that gave me some trouble was Salazzle.

I didn't really have any Pokémon Resitant to it and my only Pokémon that had a super effective move on it was my Ribombee lmao + the constant toxic was everything but nice

Radiating February 7th, 2017 8:54 PM

Lurantis triggers my flashbacks

I got beaten around 10 times where I gave up and wonder traded until I got a salandit. Then it was a piece of cake. ;)

VZHSV February 7th, 2017 9:03 PM

Lurantis definitely. I was doing a whole playthrough with bug type Pokemon and found it really hard even though bug is obviously super effective. I forgot that lurantis had sythesis so every time i would get it low it would just heal and use solar blade. There was also castform which just used weather ball and trumbeak using pluck. I went through 4 revives then.

Hikamaru February 9th, 2017 8:40 AM

I had strategies planned for some so they weren't horrible... Raticate and Kommo-o in particular were ones I OHKO'd.

But the hardest for me might have been Lurantis. I did have a Magnemite I was temporarily using to be able to get a Thunder Wave off, but I did have to sacrifice it during that battle since my team wouldn't be able to easily stand up to it. Ally-wise, at least I only had to deal with Trumbeak and not that evil Castform.

Count February 9th, 2017 9:26 AM

Mimikyu by far. Failed several times... I'm pretty sure it's the only one that required multiple tries.

Both them are great choices since they can't be taken one with fairy-type with one-shoot and have less weakness issues as a totem.

Counter ally pokemon wise and stats boosting with helping hand wise o:

Mimikyu. Its typing makes it weak to only one typing, a type that is also weak to itself, meaning that Mimikyu has no problems killing other Ghost types. Its also got other Ghosts for backup, meaning that it could easily dunk your Ghost even harder. The other Totem Pokemon went down pretty easily, but this one was strong and it had some decent defenses.

Mimikyu is also weak to Steel, and while you do get the Steelium Z alongside the Electrium Z after clearing Sophocles' trial, the issue is not a lot of the Pokemon obtainable by the time you do this trial even learn Steel moves in the first place.
