The total stats might be bad, maybe put speed around 15 or 30 and Attack at 55, as 5 base Speed is something even below Shuckle.

>>44576917 Amoongus is grass/poison, which is a much better defensive typing than Grass/Psychic and it has spore 100/130 is good but the 55 HP and the typing, plus the speed will make it NU at best, only because of Grass Surge.

>>44576911 I so often forget that bug has any favorable matchups at all. even 3x weak with filter is still probably enough to kill it every time

>100/130 is good but the 55 HP and the typing raise it to 65 or 70HP and give it Storm Drain

>>44577041 the HP at 55 isn't really as bad as it would at first seem. Because HP is calculated differently to other stats, everything short of shedinja basically gets a free 50 on top of what they have. 55 fully invested is only marginally less HP than amoongus's 114 uninvested (see pyukumuku).
That said, regenerator and spore probably do make amoongus better in a lot of cases.

Being a stall/heal mom means this thing is either useless garbage if it's bad or if it's good it's 100% not fun to use or play against so either way I hate it. Back to the drawing board OP.

>>44577088 75HP also leaves it at a maximum of 99.1% damage taken, 75HP might be the best shot if you don't want it to be broken against other situations.

>>44577088 >>44577124 switching to better matchups against bugs is probably fine for the most part. It might be annoying to try to predict the million U-turn users in the game though.

>>44576827 aside of these too
>>44576911 >>44577124 you could add some rock moves to the table for sea sponges being stuck on rocks, like Ancient Power, Stealth Rock and Meteor Beam. Also, due to being a subjective typing, it should also have access to Scald, Ice Beam and Blizzard like common water-types possess. Strength Sap would be quite the addition for a grass-type that lives on the ocean floor.

>>44577236 Mostly seems acceptable. I was about to say that I wouldn't expect a grass type to be getting ice beam, but apparently ludicolo gets ice beam as well. Abomasnow aslo gets it, but that's a different case. I'd be wary about throwing strength sap on anything though.
