I guess you could argue he's still technically better than old Marowak but not by enough for him to not be shit.

Really, all this thing would need is Shadow Sneak and itd be totally fine. Monstrous attack WITH boosting, great coverage, decent bulk with a good bulky typing with 10-11 resists/immunities, and recoilless Flare Blitz. As is, its not god awful like people think, but Shadow Sneak would solidify it.

I realize that. That's why I was speaking as if it didn't get it.

Maybe future games/move tutors, but its frustrating seeing potential go to waste.

This guys attack is monstrous with THICC club and Fire/Ghost with STAB Rock-Head Flare-Blitz is arguably better than anything regular Marowak has but his speed is still absolute shit.

Maybe he finds a home in VGC? I don't play doubles but maybe with trick room or speed swap he can work?

A-Marowak has huge VGC potential because of that Flare Blitz with thick club. Nothing broken, but a legitimate threat.

in 2014 it was fine
in 2015 they decided to just let absolutely fucking everything in thinking it would vary things even more when actually it made it so every team was the same four or five Pokemon with maybe one or two different each
2016 was when VGC officially died

with speed investment, A.Marowak +2 speed from flame charge will be able to out speed any mon base 115 and below. which is not bad, but 2 turns to set up is quite a lot to ask for.

Hmmmm actually the more I think about this guy the more I like him. Fire/Ghost is really good offensively, he's gonna be hitting most mons really hard almost nothing is gonna want to switch in on him.

He's very weak to pursuit but other than defensive water types what forces him out? He's weak to knock off but I can't think of a knock off user that would want to switch in on him.

What I love the most is that he keeps most of his Kanto Marowak coverage and more. Brick Break, Earthquake, Stone Edge, all that stuff.

So defensive rock types, water types, and dragon types are all that could switch in to it.

Looking at pursuit users many of them would not actually want to switch in on him but you'd have to watch out for tyranitar, houndoom, and I guess Krokodile.

Idk with the right team support this guy might actually work.

Bonemarang works pretty well on the first two, I'd think.

If you predict the switch in yea, but once they're in you're not gonna get to do anything cause you're so much slower than any of them. I mean if he can tank a hit and hit back with boomerang I guess that's good.

I think you don't even bother with any speed investment on him just full attack and defense.

I know people dont like trick room but when this fucker reaches nearly megamawile power with a thick club and those stab moves he just DEMANDS it

Flare blitz / Rock head / Quake / 85 Ghost is amazing coverage.
