They fucking ruined my Ashita no Joe pokemon

Makuhita didn't evolve into a kick boxer, so why did this happen?

yfw it isn't an evo but a sparring partner for crabrawler due to its punching pad hands.

No it fucking wasn't, are you high?

"It likes to climb, so of COURSE the beach crab would become a yeti". What kind of logic is that?

I don't even particularly dislike it, but nothing about this evolution was obvious.

I'm still holding out hope that it's a counterpart and not an evo, but I'm pessimistic.

Crabrawler is just so cool.

my immediate thought was that it would climb the mountain on the big island to become the king crab, and it seems that I was right

>Stone Edge
>Close Combat

Now add Ice Punch on top of this. We may finally have another Ice type in OU, especially with Psychic Tapu around to neuter Talonflame.

I mean, yeah I understand why they did it, but that anon was making it out to be like it was the logical evolution for it. There's no fucking way anyone thought it would turn into a yeti.

Ice/Fighting is actually a pretty great type, offensively-speaking anyway.

SE against Normal, Grass, Ice, Ground, Flying, Rock, Dragon, Dark, Steel

Weak against Fire, Fighting, Flying, Psychic, Steel, Fairy but neutral to sneaky pebbles

It's either a counterpart or the pokémon evolves into a trainer to help young Crabrawlers.

If it's the latter, I'd like to see Crabrawl and this guy being both viable in their own ways, you know, like Scyther and Scizor could have been.

They in fact deal with much hotter temperatures.

I seriously doubt this is his evo, it's probably a counterpart just like Sawk and Thro. The designs just too markedly different.

Anyone have any guesses to what it takes to evolve it? My money is on some Magnezone/Probopass-styled environment based evolution, where Crabrawler evolves only in the mountain region.

Fighting helps with that since it's not weak to rocks

also I'm pretty sure some pretty major balance changes are happening this gen. Steel resists Dark again and Paralysis's speed reduction was nerfed to 1/2.
