New Totem Pokemon confirmed: Totem Marowak!

Looks like Totem Salazzle will be taking a rest on the bench while a new totem will be taking her place: Totem Marowak! What do you think about the change? Personally, I would have preferred Salazzle, unless somehow Marowak is holding a Thick Club. And also, the totem aura it gives out will raise its speed by 2, which could make this thing a bit of a challenge. |
Totem Salazzle was a complete joke in both of my playthroughs of Sun/Moon. I have high hopes of Totem Marowak being a challenge with a Thick Club and the +2 Speed.
|
I’m actually glad they replaced Salazzle with Lurantis. Kiawe’s trial lacked in numerous places, and challenge was one them. T-Salazzle was probably one of the easiest Totems, so hopefully Marowak will be harder (especially if it has Thick Club).
|
Glad of this change, would've been boring to keep all of the same Totem Pokémon. I wonder what Totem Pokémon will be at the end of Mina's trial, Comfey perhaps?

I could see Ribombee probably being Mina's Totem since it was her ace Pokemon (since it was her Z-Move user) when you battled her in the postgame of S/M. |

Im glad they aren't just recycling the same totem pokemon, and I think (hope) Totom Marowak will be harder than Totem Salazzle. Totem Salazzle was a joke if you had a water type.

I will be intrigued to see which of Marowak's stats will get boosted from the Totem aura. My guess is probably Defense or Sp. Defense since it may still be early on. |

It makes sense early-game ones only have a defensive stat affected, since Gumshoos/Raticate and Wishiwashi had a +1 Defense boost. And even then, the Normal-type totem was easy to beat with a Makuhita and Brick Break TM. |

Yea the normal-type totem was easy, even without the Makuhita. But I think thats intentional and probably good. It allows players to get accustomed to the game. |
Seems cool! Gives the game more of a BW2-esque vibe. The closer it is to those games, the better.
|
Alolan Marowak sounds like a good totem but Salazzle was pretty cool too.
I hope Mallow's totem is changed to Tsareena but feel it may stay the same. Easiest Totem for me was Wishiwashi. I beat it with an adorable Petilil. For a hard Totem they could have Totem Salamence if the Dragon user has one. It will be tricky especially if Ice types are unavailable at that point. |

Well of course a Totem Pokemon will be a joke if you use a move that's 4x super effective to it @everyone saying that about Totem Salazzle and Kommo-o. That's always been the case with Gym Leader Pokemon etc, don't see why that's anything to write home about.
|
Quote:
It's funny to imagine such a little thing destroying Kommo-o. |
I don't think that the change will have too much of an impact.
|
Hopefully it will be more of a challenge!
|
Eh.
I'm just happy Mina's a proper trial captain now, you know? Maybe she'll have an art-like trial like she mentioned at the end of S/M. |
