Are Toxapex, Salazzle and the jellyfish enough to make poison relevant?

Implying Gengar and Venusaur weren't relevant?

salazzle is kind of shit but toxapex is looking good. It gets just enough moves to be able to pull its weight

also poison was already p. good
>>30037413
plus nidoking, tentacruel, amoongus and mega bee are also neat

Salazzle pretty quick, can toxic literally anything and gets some good STABs like Venoshock (with toxic), sludge bomb, and flamethrower.

It's probably one of the best one of the gen. I actually had mine under levelled and it swept boss ladies entire totem team.

Toxapex is a great pivot. I think a Specially defensive build with Regenerator will pair well with Tangrowth and Slowbro.

The fact it can toxic bulky steel types and other poison types gives it a niche.

Toxapex single-handedly saved Poison.

This thing is good, probably one of the best new mons this generation. Tons of utility with two excellent abilities for its role, solid defensive stats and typing and it can slowly whittle down teams with Poison. In theory it pairs up insanely well with Ferrothorn, as they both cover each others weaknesses almost perfectly. Could become a staple core in the new future

Is there a limit on how many times an SOS can be called? Corphish seems to have become quiet.
And is it going to be toxapex first, or does it randomly come in amongst the corphish back ups?

Toxapex is overrated garbage. People saw its stats and thought "wooooowwww new king of stall!!!!" but the reality is it can't do shit besides blindly throw out toxics or piss-weak scalds. It's set-up bait.
Salazzle is pretty good, especially since it can Toxic Steel and Poison types on the switch in.
Nihilego is amazing. Excellent speed, power, and special bulk. Can set up SR early on, and come back later to sweep, hell, if you manage to kill their lead you can sweep from the get-go. Good for killing Tapus too.

Toxapex is going to be even better when it gets Regenerator. I think all 3 of them are pretty neat though.
