5th Gen Elemental Monkeys

[calister17]

im not a fan of any of them, i think they are really lackluster.

 

[TTC]

The monkeys for the most part are pretty awful. That said, I've seen the water one used in a few wifi battles, and it is actually somewhat functional. I think the other two are borderline useless though.

 

[Jdwg1337]

I obtained a Pansage and kept it all the way untill after the E4, then left it in my PC never to be used again, mainly because its almost useless and looks horrid.

 

[SuperSaiyanII]

They're all ok to me but there are much better grass,fire, or water types in the game that I can use so I prefer not to use any of the elemental monkeys.

 

[GreenBeece]

I like (Pan/Simi)sear, (Pan/Simi)pour and (Pan/Simi)sage. Only thing that bothers me is that Simipour is so... hermaphrodite... and most of them are male... I made sure that mine was female.

 

[Zelda]

None of the elemental monkeys are that strong, and while semi-training a Pansear for my team I had later on decided to keep it in the PC. Though my favorite would be Pansage/Simisage as its design looks the best out of them all, imo.

 

[Jesspke]

Nope. Never.
I use one for the first gym, and then box it. I'm not a fan of them, because the evolutions look weird, and it takes a while for them to use decent moves :/
I feel slightly differant 'cause everybody else uses them...

 

[NatureKeeper]

I used my Simisear until Level 20 but replaced it for Victini later. (I know Victini's not that good, but I like it so don't comment.) And yer, I did evolve it. The fire monkeys have a really bad level up set, unlike Victini.

 

[OneofFour]

I used Simipour forever in-game. Scald alone makes him useful. Unfortunately, I think a lot of water Pokemon outclass him, so I doubt I'd ever use it again.

 

[Arcaninerz]

I was using pansear up until i found a litwick then replaced him since litwick had a better type and also chandelure has one of the best sp. attack stats

 

[adamant57]

I use them until I beat the E4 the first time. Only because they had cute designs. Not to mention the lacking of proper fire types in the game before the E4. My starter was Oshawott so I needed a fire type

 

[PaxAmericana]

All of them have pretty good movesets and designs. They all look good in my opinion. All of them have strengths and weaknesses.

9/10

 

[Maple Meganium]

I boxed my Panpour as soon as I caught a Tympole. He did have the last laugh (or cry?) when I brought him back out to use as a water slave post-E4.

 

[Kotone]

i kinda like the monkeys. i only used panpour for cut, surf, etc.

 

[Ω Ruby and α Sapphire]

I think they are useless. I boxed my pansear after the first gym never to see the light again.....

 

[hiff8]

Im not sure why people dont like the monkeys they rock socks and people saying they would rather have cats or weasels of something if you ask me monkeys are the PERFECT THING but the only thing they are not completely original they have are crazy look a likes to Aipom, almost as nasty as Snivy to Cyndaquil

 

[Numbers]

When I got it I used it to beat the first Gym then it remained in my party unused until I had 6 Pokemon. Then I put it in my box never to be heard of again. Shame really as I like all the monkeys designs (Except their evolutions)

 

[Pokestick good times.]

The flamboyant monkey that some dude gave me so I can troll the first gym?

> Using it made me feel cheap.
> It made a good provisional HM slave.

 

[Zelda]

To be honest, I never even used any of the monkeys as HM slaves at first. After beating the first gym with Pansear, it went straight into my PC. n_n

Still, at least it's neat how GameFreak tries to help give us a way to beat the first gym a bit easily. At least the addition with the three isn't too bad to say they are totally useless.

 

[The Eagle]

Well i got Pansage then levelled it up.... and evolved it -_-.... It learned no good moods like seed bomb etc. I was stuck with vine whip. I used him in the Elite 4 then dumped him in my PC.
