>>27216337Seaking has Horn Drill, Lighting Rod, coverage, Magikarp and Finneon evolve into competitive mons, Remoraid evolves into a mon usable in Trick Room and able to learn shitons of attacks, Sharpedo has acceptable speed and good offensive stats, Luvdisc is a Heart Scale farm, Lanturn is usable and has Wish and decent typing, Relicanth has good offensive type and abilities and at least it can reach base 100 stats, Gorebyss and Huntail got buffs, Basculin despite bwing another forettable shitmon is at least a more viable shitmon than Lumineon with better stats and speed in general also good abilities. Other regional common aquatic Pokemon all have uses and even end being competitive. BUT NOT LUMINEON.
Lumineon can't learn Air Slash or Dazzling Gleam or Quiver Dance even despite its shit stats, dex entries and concept and poor movepool, it's abilities are all outperformed by other Pokemon, has no niche even for muh Tailwind. Has multiple base 69 stats that are very depressive amd lewd. Most useless fish.
I'm extremely neutral to it, doesn't even deserve hate. Few Pokemon affect me like it, Lopunny, Mismagius, Lucario, Gliscor, Watchog, Wigglytuff, some other Gen 5 mons, Wormadam, Mothim and maybe at least other 10 out of the around 800 we are about to have excluding forms and megas.
