  • The world of Pokemon is one unlike many other franchises. In it, we have a colorful variety of landmarks, regions, and most importantly, Pokemon. It’s almost impossible to remember them all at this point. However, throughout Pokemon’s history, there have been shining stars amongst the nearly infinite pile of partners: those who have proven themselves to be staples in any Pokemon playthrough. But for every great Pokemon, there are countless others left in the shadows. Today, I’m going to be giving them the spotlight and seeing how they can be hypothetically fixed to be more desirable in their respective generations…

    The only good thing about Spidops is that its the only spider pokemon with 8 legs

    I politely disagree that Eiscue is "just a penguin". The ice cube mask is extremely creative, and is the crux of the character.

    • @mamutepeq
      @mamutepeq 6 часов назад +8

      It also got a tiny, round, blue head. Penguins have a streamlined torpedo body shape so they can swim fast and catch prey. I'd say that Eiscue is pretty terrible at being a penguin, and I love it for that.

    Small nitpick:
    The description for skill link is slightly wrong in the video. Skill link makes all multi-hit moves hit the maximum amount of times, loaded dice makes multi-hit moves hit 4-5 times.

    I don't have a problem with Grapplpct being pure Fighting, but it's peculiar how 90% of the fighting types introduced in Gen 8 are just pure, no secondary typings
    Sirfetch'd should have kept Flying

  • @ivanbluecool

    Big type itself definitely needed to have better coverage. Surprised they don't so more super effective damage to more types. Ground and fairy would make sense since bugs dig and fairy are those cute types that would be afraid of scary bugs.
    That and better coverage moves especially the early bugs

    While I agree that aquatic Pokemon that aren't Water type are cool, I think Grapploct really should've been a Fighting/Water type. We could've used another mon with the type combo that can be normally caught during a playthrough. Currently Poliwrath is the only one that isn't a some kind of 'special' Pokemon.

    • @necro5363
      @necro5363 4 часа назад

      Grappaloct also learns more water moves then like 60% of all water types.

    • @bigblue2568
      @bigblue2568 3 часа назад +1

      Also I think it’s weird in grapploct’s case because there isn’t really a reason for it to not be water type. It’s based on an aquatic animal and lives in the water.

    How do you want to turn Scovillain into a more physical-based attacker and not give it Solar Blade when it's clearly designed to be a sun sweeper?
    And Scovillain does actually already get Leech Seed as an egg move.
    Personally, I think Contrary Scovillain would be very cool, seeing as how it can abuse it with both Overheat and Leaf Storm.

    I feel like Scovillian should be more specially focused just based on the typing (would play more into hot peppers is giving people spicy breath=flamethrower; and the synergy with sunlight for solar beam). It should’ve had some sort of gimmick to match Palafin (and fulfill being the villain to the hero)

  • @craniifer

    I personally like Charjabug. Not only is it cute as a button, but slapping an Eviolite on it and running it in doubles with String Shot allows your special attacker to sweep.

    I have some ideas for buffs/changes myself:
    Comfey: give it a ability what would give it grass stab (like steelworker, and for flabebe line), psychic noise, tailwind, quiver dance(?)
    Minior: give it flying moves like hurricane, air slash, air cutter and gust
    Pincurchin: + water typing
    Alcreamie: regenerator as a ability
    Dragapult: shadow claw
    Flapple: dragon claw
    Inteleon: give it a special HA that gives sniper + technician (i'll call it "agent gear")
    Polteageist: give it technician and moves like ominous wind and draining kiss
    Fezandipity: give it adaptability or filter instead of technician
    Brambleghast: technician as an ability, give it moves like: shadow claw, rock tomb (?), U-turn
    Tatsugiri: give it adaptability as a HA instead of storm drain, ice beam
    Glimmora: give it levitate as an HA and corrosion as a regular ability (also corrosion should be poison type scrappy, make steel and poison non resistant)
    Sorry for the long list but these are my ideas :D

  • @seandewar47

    The reason why Vikavolt is so slow is because it's based on a Railgun, which are big, powerful, but most importantly, slow to fire. Vikavolt follows suit, despite how quickly it can physically move, but to attack, it has to slow down and aim in order to fire properly. Making it's speed stat higher would go against the point of the Railgun inspiration.

  • @mamutepeq
    @mamutepeq 6 часов назад +1

    I live in Brazil and have seen toucans flying around, they're as fast as some raptors when they glide. I'd take 40 from Toucannon's special attack and 5 from each defense and dump it all on speed. It still wouldn't be super good, but it would be a bit better, and it makes more sense for a toucan to be fast.

  • @irritatorgoner1087
    @irritatorgoner1087 8 часов назад +1

    What a amazing video, i really loved. The only thing i would definitely change it's to really give graploct(if i didn't spelled wrong) a secondary water type, i know that just because he's a octopus it should have it, but it will make him have more utility have it, especially if he could use aqua jet with technician

    i used vikavolt in sm
    so yes, i was stuck with a charjabug for the whole game
    on one hand im glad they fixed that in usum on the other usum's existence is stupid (or rather, sm's existence is stupid because of usum).
    some romhacks make it a pseudo-legendary, which is funny.
    also, scovillain is funny because they decided to give it the war crime ability

  • @PieEyeToon
    @PieEyeToon 5 часов назад

    Vikavolt's low speed makes a little more sense if you think of it as attack speed rather than movement speed. It resembles a rail gun so it likely needs a moment to charge up before firing.
    That said, it would really benefit from being faster. Maybe instead of changing its stats, it could get Speed Boost as a Hidden Ability? It kinda fits since Vikavolt heavily resembles Vic Viper from the Gradius series who usually starts off pretty slow but can grab powerups to get faster. With such glacial base speed it shouldn't be too broken either.

  • @astropult9377

    I think Vikavolt should have the Speed Boost ability. That would just fix all its problems (aka it’s speed stat). And it fits thematically too.

  • @WyattBehm
    @WyattBehm 2 часа назад

    A easy fix for vikavolt is just give it speed boost and maybe swap out its speed with its attack

  • @PieEyeToon

    I don't know if those new abilities fit Spidops that well. Maybe it's just me, but Spidops seems a bit too serious and professional for Prankster.
    And Arena Trap definitely doesn't work. The ability is called 'Antlion' in Japanese and is referring to the characteristic sand pit trap of an antlion larva. Spidops' traps are made of webbing afaik.
    As for what it could have instead, maybe Bulletproof?

  • @brenoborba5433
    @brenoborba5433 3 часа назад

    cursola should be on the list, the only thing it really needs its like 20 or 30 more points on defense so it doesnt die to any neutral physical hit, and it could be easily done by taking from its physical attack.

    Ok, spidops is actually not as bad as you’re saying it is. It isn’t great, im not saying it is, but it’s better than ledian and kritotune. It gets access sticky webs, spikes, toxic spikes, and circle throw(would say stealth rocks but I’m not 100% sure that it gets that). That’s a quite I’m pressure for 1 mon to have all of those.
