Is your favorite pokemon viable in any sense of the word?
I find espeon a great life saver with light clay dual screens and psyshock
>>26903836
garde is only good for trap porn sadly
>>26903836
espeon gets wrecked even by shuckle, so not a great choice
I was patiently waiting since the release of B/W
very viable, almost a tad too viable
>>26903836
People I know seem to think Slaking isn't worth it because his ability is too frustrating, but I use him every chance I get
>>26903836
Oh yeah.
Every gen has done nothing but improve my squishy little murder ball
>>26903836
>Is your favorite pokemon viable
>tfw Gen VI
Nearly all of my favorites are mediocre shitmons that are barely viable
>>26903990
I know that feel
It's amazing! Just add King's Rock and an Arm Thrust move tutor in Gen VII and its perfect.
>>26903902
Use it in doubles with a Mummy guy like Confagrius or something. Or with a Worry Seed guy. Whatever.
It sure is, finally.
I can't quite say the same about Noctowl, though. Maybe someday.
Gimmicky, but can still be viable nonetheless.
It's more than viable.
Good in UU, OU and Ubers. Sadly shit in official formats, unusable in Doubles, heavily outclassed in Battle Spot.

We'll most likely get a flying type version since Pikipek has skill link
>>26904054
what do to make viable?
Ice Punch
thunder Punch?
...
...
Profit?
Sadly nomaybe I'm just shit
>>26904194
It's a slow Ice-type with all its stats invested in bulk i.e. it's absolute feces.
Nope.
>>26904039
lol
Useable to some extent, but not fantastic either. Nice moveset though.
Gotta be careful with those fairies if I mega-evolve it, but I'd say it's pretty good. Not only is it viable, but cute as fuck as well.
Still among the best pure fighting types but now very mediocre borderline shit overall
>>26904396
Fuck fucking Fairies. M-Amph will be fine either way. I'd be more worried about STAB EQs.
Not really. But it can run para-fusion so I don't care. It's bulk isn't that bad either.
Fucker owns in OU as a stealth rock setter/defogger, plus has steel type for muh fairies.
Well... it was banned in the ADV tournament in Japan.
Outside of that, well, it has its niche but nothing really worth of mention.
>Scolipede
Very. Megahorn, Poison Jab, and EQ let him put a dent in most Pokemon, and when there's an opening, I just baton pass the speed boosts to my M-Garchomp and gg
>>26903836
>Torterra
Only in-game.
>>26904039
>saving thumbnails
It's very viable and it's great.
>>26904806
>pre evo is better
Lel
I'd say it's decently viable.
It's come through for me so many times and helped me win so many last minute victories against my friends at work.
>>26903836
>unevolved
i dunno you tell me
It's Gun toting Pikachu. He was recently banned from Ubers.
Viable. Just sucks that it is too slow to be able to do anything other than
A) AssVest Waterfall/Play Rough/Power-up Punch
B) Belly Drum/Aqua Jet
>>26905414
Meh, I don't think you could beat any Pokemon which isn't NFE with a gun.
>Only non Mega Sun setter
I'd say so.
I expected him to be the team deadweight in Omega Ruby.
He wrecked shit by himself, and I had him until the end.
>>26905482
>wah it sucks that with each passing gen my bro becomes more and more viable
>>26905579
>what is groudon
>>26905609
>tfw beat the battle tower with plusle, gross, and milotic in og sapphire
>>26904054
Same. I saw the silhouettes for x/y and freaked out because I knew it was either a mawile evo or something else related to it
>>26904806
scarf, modest with adaptablity is coolio
It has some uses, I think. I'm not much of a competitive player.
Yes, OU with an offensive set, uber as a setter
>>26903836
Yes, especially for sweeping teams with Stored Power.
My original bro got screwed hard over the years.
In Gen II, the Special Split turned it's high Special into SpDef and left it's SpAtk to match it's much lower Atk.
In Gen III, it was branded a pedophile around the internet because of a side story where one supposedly abducts a little girl.
In Gen V, it was severely outclassed by it's Unova Counterpart.
In Gen VI, the much more powerful already Alakazam got a Mega Evo and not this guy.
>>26903836
yes, but i hate using it competitively because its playstyle is scummy
