The Pokemon Race Version 6.2

Unironically. That could work. Sounds far better than what Meltan has access to. I mean look at those stats and move list. The best move it has access to is Flash Cannon at level 40 or through a TM. The other good TM move it knows is Thunderbolt, not even a STAB move.

Meltan goes on the discard pile. Melmetal is next.

The real deal. Call that real steel. Those attack stats don't lie. Make it angry you will die.

12.

Double Iron Bash.

 

[Rock_Salazar]

13.

Iron fists + punching moves like thunder punch and dynamic punch. No fire punch though.

14.

It can also learn Earthquake.

Melmetal's design looks like it is always holding onto brass knuckles. I think that is really cool

Steelix would've been a good check for it if it was in the Let's Go games.

Anything but another remake of Kanto would have made the Lets Go games good. Melmetal being the only new pokemon does make it special tho.

I've got Let's Go Pikachu, and I haven't even finished it.

143 base phys. atk. + 34 base speed + STAB Gyro ball. That is one huge Steel Ball. Run.

Now that Melmetal is safe, we can move on to Gen 8, starting with Grookey.

Mmm... monkey

I'd sooner pick Scorbunny or Sobble, but Grookey isn't bad.

13.

Grass starters my beloved

 

[FeraligatrMaster]

14.

This line gets Grassy Surge as their HA.

 

[Rock_Salazar]

15.

That's amazing. Any pokemon that can set up a terrain on switch in is valuable.

 

[FeraligatrMaster]

16.

Or weather. Look at Ninetales, Politoed, Pelipper, and Torkoal.

 

[Rock_Salazar]

17.

The fact that this line ends up having decent bulk and great HP means it is a regenerating phys. tank mon.

 

[FeraligatrMaster]

18.

It can learn Grassy Glide, which gets priority when a Grassy Terrain is up.
