The Pokemon Race Version 6.1

This will only be brought up once because it is the only positive for the elemental monkeys. They all represent the three monkeys that go see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil. Pansage represents speak no evil for it is the only monkey with its mouth only. Pansear represents hear no evil as its sprite and model have it leaning its ear towards the player. Panpour represents see no evil as its eyes are always shut.

That doesn't change my opinion about the monkeys.

Pansage shares leaves from its hair and it helps relieve stress. Imagine that, cutting your hair and feeding it to someone stressed out. Then it helps them. This pokemon grows stress relief.

That makes the Pansage line even less deserving of hate.

Pansage and its other monkey bretheren are the only, yes that's right, only, pokemon that share the abilities overgrow, torrent, and blaze outside of starter-mons.

Now that Pansage is safe, Simisage is next.

Simisage can actually be better than Serperior due to having better attacking stats. 98/98 vs 75/75 seems like an easy picking for Simisage to be better, and its speed is on par with Serperior. The only problem is that Simisage's movepool is more limited than Serperior's and it lacks supporting moves like coil, swords dance, and the amazing Contrary ability. Still worth picking for a casual BW1 playthrough.

I wouldn't use Serperior and Simisage on one team.

Nobody would. To make a good team you need a diverse party. Simisage is also a walking pun. It's a monkey and has a leaves for hair. It's a Colobinae, a monkey that eats leaves.

It can learn plenty of physical coverage moves.

Simisage is rocking that Josuke haircut.

Cilan uses this line. His brothers Chili and Cress use the worse lines.

Simisage is considered an ill tempered pokemon. Interesting because its leaves are supposed to relief stress.

I prefer its pre-evolution but it is okay too. Felt all the monkeys underperformed in the games though, even when evolved.

Simisage is safe now. Up next: Pansear.

This line sucks, if you ask me.

I won't sugarcoat it. I only voted Pansage up because it was better than Carnivine. Pansear and Panpour on the other hand? They suck. Inferior stats, rather limited movepools (only damaging moves with okay coverage but no support moves), below average defenses, and below average abilities.

Anything better than Carnivine is better than this line.

Pansear's pokedex entries are a bit similar to other fire types, it roasts berries before eating them like Tepig, loves volcanoes like Magcargo, and has a high body temperature like Magmar. The only unique thing about Pansear is that it's a monkey, but the Chimcar line exists.
