>>56313828Those three, especially Lucario, are victims of early design fuckups.
>LucarioIs a victim of the developers grossly overestimating how useful Dream Shard Magnet would be. He would be good if DSM didn't suck so hard even after the buff.
>UmbreonCould've had some uses if they didn't make Energy for Everyone broken to the point of everyone having to run it to be optimal. Umbreon easily ends the day at full energy, so there could be interesting strats involving replacing him for another berry mon right before sleep for massive Sneaky Snacking from a mon sleeping at 100 energy. Alas, that is invalidated by team energy healers.
>HeracrossHas always been good and after his buffs he is actually the best Ingredient Magnet user in the game. It's just that people prefer to use a Vaporeon or Slaking(who got shafted by the skill update) so that they don't have to deal with the pure cancer that is trying to get good rolls on a single-stage mon with uncommon spawn rates. They really need to do something about that.
