I don't care about VGC or Pokken. I only care about the main games and Smash. I like Decidueye more than Incineroar though. But Smash model looks way better than SM one or even the anime.

They're the most egregious example of people being unorignal with their teams and instead depend on double protect, flinches, and freeze chances to win matches as opposed to countering the enemy comp.

Crobat sees alot of use because of this but only because that means its gets either an uninterrupted tailwind or quick guard supported TR other than that not alot of inner focus mons dont bring anything to the table. Sure you dont flinch but then what?

To run one move for one pokemon? Most vgc matches last an average 5 turns.
Incineroar isnt a problem in vgc, he just fits every single team but hes not another case of "CHALK"

Ludicolo:

>swift swim because someone's bringing the rain
>resists ground, x4 resists water, neutral to electric, ice, and fire
>enough bulk that unless you're packing a poison, flying, or bug move you can't one shot him
>the only feasible flying types are yveltal and later mega salamence; both of which are slower than swift swim ludicolo who can learn ice beam
Ludicolo does really well in the GS Cup format.

Of course when you are a balanced type with both strenghts (ground and water resistance, super effective against water and ground only type super effective against water/ground pokemon, lot of useful support move that only pokemon of the type can learn etc...) and weaknesses (resisted by a lot of type and weak against some common offensive type) and you are compared to type like steel, water or fairy who have very little weaknesses of course you will look like a bad type.

im talking about the other guy who lost to paul ruiz. I have followed paul for quite sometime even copied his vgc17 team which was super amazing to play. His opponent was just not there if youve watched it also comparing it to past finals who both players put up a fight.
Im not saying their bad. Its just other guy ddint put up a fight at all considering its worlds finals too

Ash's Bulbasaur at least got a whole episode for him in Sun and Moon and got returned back to be Red's starter in Generations.
Squirtle didn't get any TV appearance since years ago and Blastoise's role in Origins was to faint by a fire move like in the Ash anime.

Why the seething Anti-Bulba fags are so stupid they always bring dumb shit to talk down on Bulbasaur, can't they post their starter competitive rankin--
