Samurott isn't too bad. Its offensively versitle but it doesn't cut it when too many Water types are designed to excell at one role. Its even outclassed by Feralgatr when running a physical set, or Primarina when running special. Its only advantages over both of them is that neither of them can attack on both sides of the spectrum.

...But why would Samurott use Shell Smash? The shell it has is its weaponry, not its armor.

I used it during one of my games and it's fragile and doesn't hit hard enough. Also it's slow. It's movepool is pretty decent though. C-

They get Shell Smash because Clamperl gets it. They can't actually learn it through level-up.

Also there are other Pokemon where Shell Smash fits more. People just want Samurott to get it because it's the worst Water-starter in the series.

Even Basculin outclasses Samurott.

Adaptability Aqua Jet and Waterfall and a much better Speed stat.

Gen 5 had the first set of starters where not all of them could learn Earthquake. I think it makes decent sense for at least Samurott to get it too when it was inspired by sea lions slamming the ground.
>>33081528
What would be other possible abilities for Samurott? Lightningrod or Intimidate for starters.

Intimidate would be a best fit given it's gen 5 pokedex descriptions

aside from that, maybe a new custom ability "Quick Draw" which is basically current incarnation "Gale Wings" for water moves

it being a last minute addition means nothing on its use in game. its base stats are sub 100 but itll put a lot more work in than a fucking samurott of all things thanks to >>33081452
also:
>teaching a basculin surf
gross. use the fucking stunfisk then

stay mad, samurott is shit in both design and battle use. nice bait made me reply

That sounds horrible. Samurott would be even worse with that shitty Gale Wings knockoff. Not to mention it makes no sense to work with Water-type moves.
