/vp/ - Pokémon » Thread #20937348

The humps on its back have transformed into one large and very active volcano. Magma is constantly bubbling up from within its body. It has a deep hatred of water or any moisture, and has an explosive personality and a short temper. The volcano on its back erupts constantly in an effort to intimidate its foes.

When it Mega Evolves, its Ability changes to Sheer Force. It grows stronger, and any moves that can have additional effects will grow in power—but it’s important to keep in mind that they will no longer be able to trigger their additional effects! Most of its stats are uniformly raised, but its Speed does drop. Try to think of strategies based on the likelihood of being second to act in battle.

Quoted By:

The fangs in Mega Sharpedo's mouth have transformed, and the horns that have sprouted from its nose can be regrown countless times. The yellow patterns on its body are scars carved into it in battle. With explosive propulsion, it can exceed 125 mph in an instant.

When it Mega Evolves, all of its stats see a boost, and its already high Attack is whetted still further. In addition, Mega Sharpedo gains the Strong Jaw Ability, which raises the power of biting attacks. Have it learn moves that will take advantage of this aggressive Ability!

Plates emerge on Gallade's arms, and the helmet and cape-like protrusions on its head and back give it a knightly appearance. When the situation demands, Mega Gallade can use its psychic power to reshape both arms into blades simultaneously, and fight using a dual-wielding style.

When it Mega Evolves, its Ability changes to Inner Focus, so it’s protected from flinching. Its Attack and Speed stats improve, making this a Pokémon likely to excel at first-strike strategies.

Holy shit, I just started laughing my ass off at that. This is all Groudon needed but I never thought Gamefreak would do it given their incompetence. I am so fucking happy I got Omega Ruby right now.

If it was only getting 20 points or less they wouldn't have bothered mentioning it. It's definitely going to be above 100.

I don't get why Inner Focus is hated around here. It's an immunity. It doesn't lock you into a specific moveset to be useful.

It's an immunity to a one turn status that is only abused by Pokemon that will push Gallade's shit in anyway. It's almost as bad as Levitate on Rotom-Fan.

Hopefully the persecution complex will calm down a little now, felt embarrassing being a Gallade fan among all the outrage. the design is good and stats are sounding promising, I think I'm content.

And oh man, that mega evolution animation.
