Raichufags, Flygonfags, and Zygardefags don't know what a truly cucked Pokemon looks like.

I like Scyther's feets

>>
>>25591196
Scizor is great.

>>25591402
As is Dragonite.
>>
>>25591412
Scizor. Scizor is what's wrong with Scyther.

It's a good pokemon, yes, but as an evolution for Scyther it's both less good-looking and completely unfitting for it.
>>
>>25591433
If that's your issue, then tons of Pokemon have it worse.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves now.
>>
>>25591433
So in other words, it's good and people like it but you don't.
>>
>>25591439
The thing is, Scyther was a fully evolved Pokemon that received an evolution for no reason since all it did was shuffle its stats around and was likely intended to be a counterpart than an evo at first (like Pinsir:Heracross).
>>
>>25591486
And that stat shuffle made it great as opposed to shit.
>>
>>25591486
And the worst part is, Scyther doesn't get an increment in stats when it evolves.
I still like scizor tho.
>>
>>25591486
Well hey, now you can use an Eviolite.
>>
>>25591433
I don't understand how scizor is 2nd stage but without any bst increase
>>
>>25591543
Steel was rare and OP as fuck at the time, they probably thought that was the upgrade it needed.

Magnemite/ton, Steelix, Forretress and Skarmory were the only Steel types around back in those days.

Dat feel when both Scizor and Scyther are in your Top 3 Pokes.
>>
>>25591196
How is Scyther cucked exactly? It's one of the only Pokemon I know that can be good in literally every stage of evolution.
>>
>>25591474
>People using my edit
I only did the shitty eyes, though.
>>
>>25591631
Does it work like that though?

60 base power plus STAB makes it unable to be powered by Technician, right?
>>
>>25591768
Technician only affects base BP ignoring STAB. Hence why good Scizor users will use Bug Bite for dealing as much damage as possible and bad ones use X-Scissor

>>
>>25591829
Literally no one uses X-Scissor on Scizor

You'll only ever see Pursuit/Knock Off, Bug Bite/U-turn and/or Superpower on any Scizor ever; you're probably more likely to see Brick Break or iron head than X-scissor
>>
>>25591929
>>25591829
Both Bug Bite and X Scissor end up at 120 base damage with technician right?

Or is it 60×1.5= 90. 90×1.5= 135?
>>
>>25592035
>Not knowing how Technician works
1.5 boost on moves that have 60 or below power.
60 x 1.5 = 90
X-scissor remains at 80.

Plus STAB that makes Bug Bite 135 and X-scissor 120.
Then there's the additional berry stealing effect.
>>
>>25591515
But now it will never get a mega evolution.
>>
Bullet Punch made Scizor ridiculous. Scyther has no such option for coverage despite being quite possibly the best design of the original 151. It's a praying mantis. With swords for arms. Scizor threw out that concept and gave him big meaty claws instead. Scizor used to trade speed for power but since Bullet Punch and Stealth Rock exist there is no longer a way for Scyther to exist even with Eviolite. Tldr no coverage and has been pissed on movepool-wise since gen 1.

How does it walk? Its legs are so thin and it doesn't seem to have knees, either.
For such a fast pokemon, its legs and feet look way too heavy and inflexible.
>>
>>25593101
It probably walks like a man on stilts, with help from its small wings.
>>
>>25593101
Wings for thrust brah.
Legs are only there for quick direction changes.

>>25593130
Are you sure?

Thanks random stranger. I don't battle or anything but it was a good treat.

At least it can use Eviolite.

It's so unpopular it got cucked by its own pre-evo in Pokken. Even Fennekin is in that game as a Support Pokémon. Delphox is completely absent.
>>
>>25596245
It's a shame, too, since it's such an improvement over Braixen.

>implying any mon is more cucked than zoroark
It's so cucked none of you even remembered it.
>>
>>25596245
it also has a really unremarkable "signature move"

Might as well just use any other fire type move.

Reminder this line was pauper-to-prince in gen 1 and was the hope for all normie "shitmons"

I love it and normal types but it makes me sad how far he fell
>>
Do you have autism?
>>
>>25596245
What I don't understand is why Delphox gets so much more hate than any of the other unpopular stage 3s. Even Samurott seems to get less hate. It seems to attract all of the worst of the mid-evo fags.
>>
>>25596822
Probably because the 3D model is so terrible. I like the design in artwork though.
>>
>I don't know what cuck means: the thread
sure is /v/ here
>>
>>25596822
I dunno, I think it's pretty baller, but I think the design of Braixen is a little better. (Not even because I'm some dude who wants to fuck cartoon foxes, I just think think the way it holsters its wand inside of it's tail is pretty clever). I think mostly the hate comes from a very vocal minority of folks who dislike that Braixen's evolution is not as sexualized as they want it to be, because it isn't as cute. I think Delphox looks more like a sweet ass mage so I don't have any problem with it.

Meganium is the least popular starter overall.
