What's the deal with this thing?

Why was this shit one of the most popular Pokemon in VGC 2019 and is it UU?

It is basically an improved aggron
But with worse hp and speed

Because min-maxing is the thing the Ultra Beasts are best at, and it happened to fill a niche effectively.

The low speed works to its advantage because of Gyro Ball and Trick Room.

For the same reason Geodude isn't Psychic or ghost. It's a pile of normal living bricks, not magical living bricks.

Honestly fuck this thing. Why did they give it body press? VGC is gonna become Stakataka the meta.

If it wasn't able to set up its own trick room and didn't have over 200 defense, it would have been garbage.

It would arguably be more viable with only 180 base defense, since it wouldn't need to run a -Def nature to get Beast Boost to raise Atk, and it could run a -Spe nature to be even more of a monster in Trick Room.

Yep. UBs, Tapus, and Genies are coming back. Along with other legends like Cresselia and Heatran. The meta will completely change over night.

It's much better than Earth Power for Stakataka. Even if it's Body Press is the real scary one, a burn will cripple it's massive damage Gyro Ball.
