It's an unexpected bros thread. Get the fuck in here.

>Post why unexpected bro

>Profit!

Let me tell you about this fucking moth motherfucker over here, 'kay? 252 Sp.Atk and Speed, Timid nature. Bug Buzz, Air Slash, Stun Spore, Sticky Web w/ Focus Sash. Doesn't seem like much, eh? Little under powered, right? This sexy son of a bitch is a hidden flinch master. One little intimidate and it's chomping up weak-ass attacks from your weak fucking persudo legendaries. This fucking bug moth thing doesn't kill very often, but it sure as hell pisses off opponents. If you know what's good for you, you'll stick this sexy piece of Pokemon in one of your teams.

I really liekd Stantler's design when it was first announced, but it quickly faded into obscurity and I don't even remember if I caught one in Gold at all.

Then, a few weeks ago, I decided to play Coloseum, which I hadn't skipped before; and guess who became one of my main bros?

The Stantler I purified was Modest, so I taught it Thunder to give my team much-needed coverage. Hypnosis, as a reliable means of putting Shadow Pokémon to sleep, was invaluable throughout the rest of the game; and STAB Bodycheck/Return dealt physical damage to anything my Modest Espeon couldn't OHKO. No need to mention that Intimidate was incredibly useful, too.

Fucking awful, it's frail, slow and weak as fuck. It's not a "hidden flinch master", it flinches 30%, use Togekiss if you want flinches. Plus that set is garb. It's not gonna 3hko anything, so you're better off with U-turn + Tailwind or BP + Boosting move of choice.

Galvantula/Smeragle are superior in every way.

After raising the usual bug types each gen, I came to V and Leavanny. Having trained bugs in the past, I was certain that he was going to be a huge disappointment.

Then he single-handedly beat Iris's Haxorus after stomping just about every other pokemon he came across.

Quoted By: >>18585101

Immediately when I saw Carbink leaked, I for some reason just fell in love with it and knew I had to have one, but I thought that he would have pretty bad stats, so I was hesitant. But once I caught my Carbink in Reflection Cave, I knew that it was going to carry my team. Sure, it's attack and special attack are pretty weak, but it could take hits from all directions, and the only reason I ever had to take it to the Pokecenter was to refill it's PP. Never once in the main game had my Carbink gone under yellow health, and now it has officially become my favorite Pokemon.

When I was playing Y for the first time, I decided to run an 8-man team, because there were so many Pokemon I wanted to use. However, I realized that I only had Fennekin before the second gym, so I decided to catch some other Gen VI Pokemon. I caught a Scatterbug, thinking I'd box it later.

But I never did box it. This thing is so fucking awesome, Stun Sporing all day every day, and slapping niggas left and right with Bug Buzz, Hurricane, Psychic, and Energy Ball. It can even learn Sleep Powder by relearner. This little nigga was my main catcher, and I love her. Best early game bug ever.

Quoted By:

Stumbled across a Skorupi in IV's Great Marsh. Scorpions are neat, so I kept it around and used it and eventually it evolved into this beast. Normally I try and keep a strict type advantage thing going on, like most people, but I kept sending Drapion out because he was ballin'. Tore apart Candice, fucked Volkner with a rake, fisted Lucian in the ass, and was generally a beast. He never let me down.

I found a Skorupi while playing Y and spent several hours doing nothing but grinding it up to 40 so I could have a scorpionbro. Just imported the original into Y, where it's enjoying a permanent spot on my team.

She aint even that bad if you put a little effort into her, at least not in BW2, you get Return as your first TM, just level up her friendship and that will last you until you get to the move tutors where she can learn the three elemental punches+drain punch and zen headbutt, otherwise you can also use calm mind and elemental attacks since her attacking stats are even and she gets thunderbolt, fire blast, ice beam, etc

I usually steer clear of mon that don't look like plausible creatures, but I always thought it had a cool sprite in Red/Blue, and after getting humiliated by it at Misty's gym, I later caught my own in Seafoam Islands. It became one of the star players in my team against the Elite 4, and a good compliment to my Zard. It was years later when I became aware of how Starmie was regarded as one of the best competitive water types.

That was also the only time where i used a TM on a pokemon that i didnt bred, those 80,000 dollarydoos for a copy of Ice Beam and the cloning of 99 rare candies and then doing wild battles with a pickup linoone hoping for an Earthquake TM to clone were worth it.

She also got physical STABs in 4th gen and Speed Boost in gen 5, Ice Fang and Aqua Jet via level up moves, and for some reason this shark can also learn motherfucking Earthquake for coverage.
