Slower than Mamowswine, and less bulk than Mamoswine, with no priority attacks

I'm inclined to believe they made it bad on purpose

Why is Trick Room so fowned upon here? Oranguru is an amazing setter with a flinch immunity, solid bulk, and a broken signature move.

Trick Room is pretty bad honestly. Not enough good setters and the 5 turn limit is killer. They need to make an auto-TR mon with a TR Extender.

Then again, Hail is worse and I still see people on the ladder use that

I used Crabrawler through the story and he was fine. Then he evolved right before the Elite Four and became slow as shit and weak to everything. He's literally worse evolved. Same as Vikavolt.

Not sure how it happened actually but I much prefer it over 6v6 OU. Mostly because you get to use things that are normally seen as shit. Also bring 6 pick 4 is more interesting than 6v6 to me. Maybe if it were bring 6 pick 3 for singles I would be more into it.

idiots, clearly. Any fighting type with decent offensive presence can OHKO M-Kang. A nonSTAB Crabhammer OHKOing an Intimidate Lando is preposterous. Cresselia ever going down in one hit from a non-STAB dark or ghost move is ridiculous unless coming from a boosted/mega pokemon with amazing attack power.

Except hail got better with Alolan Ninetales and Alolan Sandslah in the mix. Aurora veil is an extremely useful move and Ice/Steel makes the only ice type with more resists than weaknesses and Ice/Steel/Ground gives decent coverage. Add in an Overcoat mon like Kommo-o and you can do work. And trick Room is suited to doubles honestly

It's the thing of the two were things are suited to different metas. Dragonite is fine in Singles OU but is useless in Doubles due to double targeting. Where things with redirection like Amoonguss and Eviolite Clefairy are useful as shit in doubles but do not have a place in singles.

i know, i thought itwas really shitty and bad too. but its bulk is just enough to live one hit and its STABs are fucking ridiculous. if you have trick room up, this thing is actually unstoppable. it cant be intimidated with landorus and its STAB combination is almost unresisted with the exception of cancer sword and it gets EQ for that

My main issue is that Crabominable doesn't even look like an evolution to Crabrawler.

They look like they should have been single stage counterparts and should have been version exclusive.

i just gave mine a quick claw in-game and used it like a wrecking ball.

considering how often opponents would use non-damaging moves or non-effective attacks the quick claw gave it much more lasting power.
