>>34222984Articuno gets OKHO'd by stone edge and Slowbro gets OHKO'd by sword dance Z variants. Stakataka has only one set with one interchangable move, which is Superpower/EQ. If it chooses superpower it gets walled all day by Toxapex. If it chooses EQ, it gets walled all day by Ferrothorn.
In UU, we got Forretress that can stall it, Alolmomola that can wall, stall and beat it out right, Infernape can revenge it, Metagross can fuck it up if it skips out on EQ, Hippowdon is self explanatory.
Now we got RU. Mega Camerupt can come in on a Gyro Ball, live the stone edge and OHKO with Earth Power. Chestnaught beats it 1v1, Donphan can beat its ass with zero issues, Doublade completely walls the fuck out of non EQ variants and sets up on it for free, Mega Steelix beats it, Quagsire doesn't even notice it, an so on and so on.
what is with /vp/ and Stakataka? I've never seen /vp/ shill this hard for any Pokemon ever but /vp/ in their infinite wisdom somehow swears that Stakataka isn't NU material, and won't end up as such. What is it's appeal for /vp/ to advocate for it so much?
