Even with the double weakness, its still a Steel type. I'll maybe have it as my Fairy killer for the first run if it actually learns some moves.

If it has decent physical defense and Volt Switch, I think it will be very good at forcing out physical attackers with Iron Barbs/Rocky Head, and then Volt Switching the obvious switch out. It all depend if it stats aren't shit, because the potential is there.

If my understanding of the game's development cycle they were in the middle of putting designs together probably around 2014 Worlds, when Pachirisu surprised most of the world watching. I would be completely unsurprised if Togdemaru got Follow Me via breeding/chain breeding, it's defensive typing and abilities have a lot going for it.

It's going to be the physical counterpart to Pacharisu, as in its Physical Defense will be astronomical, maybe making it viable for VGC with Follow Me gimmicks.

I also really like how last gen's rat was Electric/Fairy and this one is Electric/Steel, really interesting.

With Iron Barbs and Steel typing, it has potential to be the most viable Pikaclone (which isn't saying much)

Nigga this thing is going to be the best pikaclone out there. I love how /vp/ is always wrong about the viability of upcoming Pokemon. I can definitely see this guy being the first pikaclone above PU.

I would genuinely be really happy if it was good but even if it is it probably still won't be good in-game. There's no way they could make it viably defensive while also being strong enough to kill things easily in game.

Well obviously it's not going to be "OU good" or even "UU good", but it's definitely going to be the most viable pikaclone. That thing has ELEVEN resistances and one immunity, which is completely unheard of among pikaclones. Also, I'd like to point out that the BST of pikaclones has slowly been increasing during the past few generations:
>Pachirisu: 405
>Emolga: 428
>Dedenne: 431
