I'm guessing because Koraidon doesn't get walled by ground pokemon and the future paradox pokemon werent popular to combo with the terrain.

Sheer force lets it hit like a truck. Therian form is outclassed by Incineroar as an intimidate pivot

Anonymous

Anonymous Mon 18 Aug 2025 09:08:50 No.58132216 Report

Quoted By:

>>58132208
Because Incineroar does Therian's job better thanks to having a Dark Typing (Prankster Immunity) and Parting Shot, a pivot move that instead of doing damage instead lowers offensive stats, which can be far more valuable in terms of forcing pressure to switch on your opponent.
Incarnate's got traction since it's a heavy hitter with Sheer Force that has plenty of options to many of the meta's bastards.

Pokémon can just tera out of a weakness, it’s also hard to one shot those mons since they are trained to be bulky. It’s best to have a grass mon to be immune to spore to position your board easier

The worst was when ugly ahh landorous, heatranny, and regileki were in the meta, tho they kinda still are.

Rillaboom and Incineroar are abominations tho, we are in desperate need for better good Pokémon.

Bittersweet, as a Lunala fan. Won once, got 2nd place the second time, and “won” the third time but wasn’t used at the end.

They'll go harder on it than they'll do with Palworld.
