The Pokemon Race Version 6.2

8.

Silvally's signature move got buffed only to be removed outright in gen 9.

Silvally itself has been Dexit'd in Gen 9 as well.

My main issue is that Sivally isn't worth it. It is meant to mimic RχUS as it has a similar ability in RKS System. However, with RχUS the plates used to change its typing also give it a damage boost on top of STAB. The disc drives used for RKS System do not, plus it cannot compare to RχUS's base 120 stats. Compared to other legendaries Silvally falls flat. If anything I wish that Silvally at least had 110 base stats across the board plus a damage boost from its disc drives.

It made it into the Galar dex.

Mesprit is another legendary with equal stats at attacking and defensive 105 base (except for speed and HP at 80). Despite the higher stats than Silvally, Mesprit is considered lower tier. Both have a wide range of attacking options too.

I'd sooner use a Mesprit than a Silvally myself.

2.

One thing that confuses me is that Silvally barely has any sp. Atk. Support despite having equal phys. and sp. atk. Like 90% of its movelist is only physical attacks oriented. Why then keep its phys. atk. at just 95?

You'd expect it to be able to learn moves like Thunderbolt and Ice Beam.

 

[Rock_Salazar]

It's over. Now onto the next.


10.

A meteorite that is now a pokemon. Minior is a weird name though.

 

[FeraligatrMaster]

11.

Minior is alright IMO.

 

[Zeostar]

12. It can learn Shell Smash.

 

[FeraligatrMaster]

13.

Its ability is Shields Down.

 

[Rock_Salazar]

14.

When the inner star comes out its attacking stats reach 100 and its speed goes up to 120

 

[FeraligatrMaster]

15.

It can learn Earthquake.

 

[Rock_Salazar]

16.

Rock/Flying is uncommon for sure, but they're both great offense typings.

 

[FeraligatrMaster]

17.

The core can have different colors.

 

[Rock_Salazar]

18.

By using shell smash you can combine that with the white herb thus getting a boosted acrobatics. Quite powerful as it also gets a STAB.

 

[FeraligatrMaster]

19.

It returned in the Indigo Disk DLC.

20.

What I find a bit sad about Minior is that the later pokedex entries state that this pokemon tries to return to the ozone layer from whence in came, but it cannot. I quote, "Minior that fall to the ground try to return to space, but their wish will not come true—all they can do is fade away." - Scarlet Pokedex entry. Reminder to show minior some love when you catch it.

Okay. Personally likes the idea of the log being the actual Pokemon. Imagines the log swinging around the "body". Only changes the log for the shiny version too. Disproves this in the anime, unfortunately.
