Okay, so Sylveon has garbage speed, good sp. attack, excellent sp. def, and decent HP, but its physical bulk is lacking. How can it be made viable, /vp/?

According to Serebii, Synchronize.

Keep in mind, Sylveon does have slightly better physical bulk than Vaporeon. I don't think it'll be shit, but it won't hit OU. May make it to UU if it gets a good movepool due to Fairy being a pretty damned good type all around.

Speaking of which, Flamethrower and the like got nerfed to 90 power, but Moonblast is 95, so there's that.

I don't know, it won't be too bad, but it will probably be worse than Vaporeon and play similarly.

Meant "all around bulk" not physical bulk, sorry. I got confused, it DOES have higher Defense, it seems.

Hoping for a good movepool in an Eeveelution usually leads to disappointment unfortunately. Its stats are Vaporeon-like and its weaknesses aren't very prevalent except for Scizor bulletpunch. Its probably going to be UU but you gotta be kind of a faggot to play exclusively with copypasted OU teams.

Nah, Sylveon isn't amazing but its typing and decent bulk make it way more viable than shit like Glaceon. Just watch out for Scizor and you'll be fine.

With Misty Terrain, assuming it gets it, it can in fact protect its party from status. But nobody will use it, because nobody uses Safeguard. And Eevee can learn Heal Bell to cure the party. In terms of trapping..never seen a wall run something like Wrap, honestly.

Because they all have to have the same low-for-gen-1 BST and reshuffled stat distribution.

Some of the biggest problems they have are movepool ones though, that's an easy fix GF just won't do.

This. Their movepools are really terrible. You're pretty much dependent on breeding and/or TMs.

If I ever get a chance to meet with whoever decides what moves go to what pokemon, I'd ask him why does he like to fuck over so many potentially good pokemon with horrible movesets, and depending on his answer I'll kick his ass. Hell I'll peobably kick his ass anyways.

It can't attack for shit, at least Sylveon's Moonblasts off 110 Base Sp. Attack have a chance of making something die.

The fact we have to force ourselves to use Hidden Power on so many Pokemon because they only have one type of special attack is retarded. Fucking Lilligant better get some new moves this gen.
