So why didn't they just name it Snowshrew and Snowslash? I think they should at least add that in their Pokedex entry that its nicknamed that by the locals.

Give it an exclusive boosting move that sharply boosts Attack and Speed

When they confirmed it to be slower than regular Sandslash, it's guaranteed a shitmon unless it has an amazing movepool.

This meme is kind of silly. Granted it's not made of fire, but anon didn't assert that it was. The sun is, which is i think the part that triggers certain anons, extremely hot. It is still dumb for it to be weak to fire, regardless to what solgaleo is made of.
