>This thing isn't a special attacker
Is this the king of wasted potential?
>>
>>27155945
Considering most rock moves are physical, no.
Not sure if you thought about this before you started this piece of shit thread.

I doesn't really learn any significant special moves other than Power Gem and Flash Cannon, and those two moves are used better by others.

Gigalith has a plethora of problems, i don't think it not being a special attacker is a huge loss
>>
>>27156173
The thing learns Power Gem and a ridiculous amount of special moves
>>
>>27156173
he can learn power gem
>>
>>27156251
Almost nothing that currently learns Power Gem puts "good use" to it, anon.

I agree with OP: if Gigalith had 135 special attack and a couple other random special moves, it would have been much better. Still a shitmon for top tiers, but better in metagames with less power creep.

I'm also disappointed Ash's Boldore never became one, just another reason BW was utter shit.

Fucking game freak.

Of these, only Probopass has Power Gem. The rest are stuck with ANCIENT POWER, a 60 BP move with 5 PP.

It's clear Gamefreak has not noticed just how ridiculous this situation is, or they have realized it and they just don't care to change anything about it.

Yes, based on flavor text alone, Gigalith and kin should have been special attackers. However, what good would that have done when "Rock-type special attacker" is as yet just a myth or legend? Probopass is pretty much the only one with a proper STAB.

Corsola has Hustle and is just as much a shitmon as can be, so it hardly counts.
>>
>>27156438
Can't Probopass learn it?
>>
>>27156316
The 'dex says Mouth, and I haven't had one in gen 6 for Amie. Seems legit to me.
>>
>>27156687
>75 Special attack
Why does it even matter?
>>
>>27156687
It doesn't even have gems!
>>
>>27155945

No.
>>
Am I autistic if this thread makes me super mad at Game Freak all of a sudden?
>>
>>27156814
Because Diancie is made of gems and can't learn it, while Probopass is a fucking rock and learns it.

Faggot.

Shame he sucks, he has one of the coolest shiny colors.
>>
>>27155945
It's because Gamefreak wanted to make Gen 5's mon's as similar to Gen 1 as possible. I guess a shitty version of Golem was in order.

mega giga when?

New Ability: Charged Crystals - Special Attacks use the Physical Attack Stat for damage calculation.

Atk + 50 to 185
Sp Def + 50 to 130 (equal to his Def)

Gigalith becomes even more of a wall, stack that with the boosts from Sandstorm, and now he's also a boss mixed attacker.
