nintendo

if I can be completely honest I tried this first on my phone and I guessed electivire for the fighting/electric slot because there are some romhacks that make him like that but that was not true in this case so I went to my laptop for a second try and spent a good twenty minutes thinking "what the fuck is an electric/fighting type" until I eventually remembered iron hands

all options are in gen 9

i blankedon iron hands and forgot the pawmi line's typing

I've not played a pokemon game past gen 5 and even then my first experience with gen 5 was playing blazeblack 2 redux last year

I also forgot lunala was a ghost

I have fleeting cursory knowledge of gen 9 from brief experiences with friends talking about the games and pokemon showdown

speaking of blazeblack 2 redux here's the team I used to beat the elite 4 refights

the early bird catches the wyrm

i completely forgot the dumb horses were a thing in Arceus

L

I screwed myself by putting bottom right first before bottom middle

I'm glad to see that I could've gotten even more points if I used primal instead of normal groudon

usually go the alt form

for some reason the normal enamorous is the least picked for bottom right though

also I'm pretty sure that goddamned snail creature is the only native steel type in hisui

non-legendary

yes

I bet people who remember its name will pick the alt form for more points

It is. I forgot it existed

there's not many hisui pokemon

That was one of the few that wasn’t story relevant

we have basculegion

If I remember correctly

and wyrdeer

and sneasler

and uh

bird

overqwil

he's my favorite

I squealed like a girl when I saw that qwilfish had an evo you have no idea

Lilligant, samurott, whatever cyndiquils final evo is idk why I forget rn

I love that little dumbass so much

typhlosion

and decidueye

I forgot about overqwil or whatever it is haha

overqwil is just a very big qwilfish

Honestly thinking of all of them for this reminded me just how many forms they made

kleavor?

Ye

ursaluna bloodmoon too technically yes

The zoroark one too

bloodmoon probably wouldn't count

femboy bait

I like zoroa’s hisui form better tbh

I don’t like the spots on its body, they look like eyes

there's also hisuian braviary

and avalugg

oh yeah I like the avalugg one

isn't he ice steel

ice rock

ice rock

that's better than pure ice

and decidueye

I feel like they just made hisuian avalugg like

he's just an avalugg with more avalugg per avalugg

but that's enough to make him better

The peak form of avalugg

Iceberg sized

Apparently, there was a glitch where you could catch the boss version

And it was huge outside the fight

do they have the same base stats?

same stat total at least

still just the

physically fatass

very cool

but hisuian is part rock so he's not going to get one-shot by non-stab flamethrower

and he won't get oneshot by fighting unless some shenanigans have occurred

he'll probably get 1 shot by empoleon flash cannon though or two shot with vacuum wave

yeah

steel is a problem

scorching sands is a problem

but

the amount of problems has dropped significantly

worst comes to worst you just go iron defense body press 252 def/hp bold nature and sturdy and you just

get a cheesy kill

quick claw :)
