This. It's basically anti-meme magic. Lurantis is still qt and great for fanart though.

I believe they nerfed the Pokemon used as totems. Hence, Vikavolt's speed

Because having a good design = having shitty stats this gen, at least its' counterpart is pretty good, would have been even worse if both were trash because both have a really good design

It's been over a decade since I had trouble fighting a boss (legend, gym leader, e4, whatever you consider a boss in the pkmn games) in Pokemon.

No Pokemon that aren't Alolan Forms, Legendaries, UBs or Toxapex were allowed to be good this gen.

I'm not sure. They gave it Contrary, but with only Leaf Storm to abuse it with an no other special moves beyond hidden power, it's outclassed by SERVINE, not even Serperior (well it's still outclassed by it, but the point is that its outclassed by a NFE) They could have given it Close Combat at the very least or an exclusive move that sharply lowers speed when used.

Are you actually this delusional? It's garbage either way, especially as an objectively worse Tsareena. Nor does it invalidate it being garbage competitively, in any format, on any platform.

I'll never understand what goes through Gamefreak's head when they decide on stats, moves and all that stuff.

Except there's Alola shitmons that are fucking unusable even in-game. Notice how a bunch of the stuff I mentioned is stuff that makes sense simply for flavor.
