>>29812048The tapus are irrelevant because we have legendaries with stats ranging anywhere around sub-600 to above 600. Legendaries are a very varied group, unlike the three pokemon we are talking about here. The tapus are a group of their own, just like other legendary duos or trios are a group of their own, with their own similarities and themes. You are using false analogy, here, and you claim others are being stupid.
I don't understand what is with Golisopodfags that feel like being a Gyarados 2.0 is some sort of validation that their bro would not be as useful, powerful or popular if it didn't receive that status.
Facts:
Gyarados and Milotic are both fish to serpent, with 540 BST, three similar stat spreads (HP, Defense and Speed), are partly from the Dragon egg group, whose traits are direct opposites from their fish preevos
Golisopod, while evolving to become powerful from a pathetically weak pokemon, only has 530 BST, only shares two stat spreads Gyarados, is part of the Bug egg group, and clearly isn't a fish to serpent evolution.
For them to be a trio, Golisopod should also share similarities to Milotic in terms of stat spreads (they don't). He has less stat spread similarities with Gyarados than Milotic does with Gyarados, and again, a different BST.
Weak is directly opposite to powerful, ugly is directly opposite to beautiful, being afraid is not a direct opposite of being enlightened.
There are similarities but not enough to warrant them from being a trio.
