Post Pokemon whose stats you guessed wrong because of their look which fucked you up in battle before.

At one point, I actually assumed it was weak to Machamp in a maison battle

>meant to be a glass cannon
>"Hurr let's lower its speed"

what were they thinking? at least there's Sucker Punch
>>
>>25860536
I've always been aware that it isn't the case, but Sceptile looks way more like a physical attacker than a special one.
>>
>>25860592
Sucker Punch + Moxie is usually enough for me
>>
How the hell are you supposed to guess these guys?
>>
Emboar, the pig with big HP and amazing defenses.
>>
>>25860536
the fact that honchkrow is not physically bulky is just disgusting
>>
I thought Empoleon was a physical attacker.
>>
>>25860612
it's level up movepool would agree with you

I thought Scizor was fast because it almost always attacked first

Even Gamefreak's not sure if this is a physical or special attacker.
>>
>>25860612
gamefreak agreed, that's why the moves it got in its debut generation include leaf blade, crunch, dragon claw and thunderpunch

Thought it was slow
>>
>>25861617
I think that's his point. All of those moves are aesthetically physical (and hence became physical in Gen 4) and thus fit a Pokemon who looks like a physical attacker.
>>
>>25860622
if SP worked like any other priority move it would've been fine but even then there's stuff like Whimsicott, i don't see Honch that often in UU anymore it's a shame
>>
>>25860536
>mafia birds
>bulky

They don't even fight, they tell people to fight, nigger.

Purugly has insane speed. I will always be confused by this.

higher base special attack than base attack?
>>
>>25861617
>sneasel

They base stats off of appearance and flavor more than typing.
>>
>>25860777
I thought it was fast because it evolved from Scyther who is incredibly fast and also gave off Cyberninja vibes.
At least bullet punch fulfills this somewhat.
>>
>Not just memorizing stats
>>
>>25860536
Purugly the fat fucking cat.... thought it was bulky
>>
>>25865742
Was coming to say this. But that I didn't think it'd out speed hypnosis my entire team.

>>25861200
Onix is truly a shame.
>>
>>25860549
Yeah, I guess Madibuzz's hollow bones are filled with....bones.

Oh that makes so much sense.

I was expecting it to be far faster and nowhere near as bulky
>>
I always assume Empoleon is a physical attacker.
Its moveset agrees, and its arms look like swords, but it has a SpAtk leaning in it's stats.
>>
>>25868416
It's a goat it's supposed to be bulky, different from a crow.
>>
>>25865758
That thing really should'nt be fast.
