@@joeyteter9383 the snowy area in Galar is an example of one that could be early game. I feel like the games that don’t should have a cave early on with a somewhat hidden icy part.
You mention getting things too late in the game, but this has been the pokemon game where my team has changed the MOST from early to late, in part due to being able to find high level alpha forms of cool pokemon like Goodra, Garchomp, Gardevoir/Gallade. I think the only pokemon that hasn't changed on my team from the first region is Infernape (but it kind of did when I found the alpha version at a higher level). Really enjoying this game because it has allowed me to have more team variety without having to grind levels as much.
I’m only at the Coastlands but my team composition has been constantly changing the whole time. I’ve got a few members that are steadily becoming mainstays as I build up my final team, but there have definitely been a bunch of key players that have come and gone.
same like my team kept changing and im on the highlands right now. Like i don't want to use pokemon I already know so i kept switching them. only got three permanent members on my team. the other three are place holders til I find other pokemon I want. Like zoroark cuz it the only normal ghost type. Want to play with that type combo myself. Got overqwil cuz it the only new dark type that I can find. don't know if im going to get voltorb or braviary. but so hard leveling up pokemon when i keep switching them lol
I tend to get attached to my team, so usually I’ll have 1-3 I am attached to and never change, and the rest vary. In sword and sheild, I had Boltund and Cinderace as my beloveds, in this one, I’ve had by Decidueye and Shinx :3.
100% agreed. I am certain that once Pokemon Home allows for the transfer of the Hisuian pokemon, their movepools were not only be expanded upon, the new moves may be adjusted to fit in-line with the PvP format.
Decidueye won my heart with its synergy. Having access to Roost without the downsides, moves like Brave Bird for big damage and Aerial Ace for guaranteed hits is already amazing enough. But the crit boost from Triple Arrows, along with slightly higher priority, and defense lowering on the opponent is AMAZING when synced with Leaf Blade, a physical move with an already high critical hit ratio.
This is the only problem I am facing with it in the game, it has a superwide moveset like dude: brave bird, stone edge, roost, bulk up , leaf blade,triple arrows, aerial Ace, aura sphere and leaf storm.
@@retard9545 Wrong! And I learned it the hard way. Roost removes your flying type! So if a Staraptor uses it, it's suddenly weak to fighting type moves.
Hisuian Braviary look very regal, Hisuian Zoroark look very menacing, Hisuian Arcanine is very legendary-like and Hisuian Avalugg is massive and powerful. Don't forget my favorite starter of all time also got Hisuian form, Samurott, looking sinister and badass with Dark-typing.
Typhlosion and Lilligant are definitely my favorite in Legends. I love Typhlosion’s new personality and how it’s so chilled it is. At first I didn’t like Lilligant’s design but she grew on my really fast. I love the fact she’s based on a dancer and she’s actually really cute when she’s in motion.
My Typhlosion has been Smokescreening a lot lately like a lot, but all seriousness I love his design it shows a lot of personality on him and the flames just look so sick on him
yeah i had to agree with you there, like Victory Dance is an insane move that makes lilligant fantastic, decidueye on the other hand....that thing got screwed cause I looked up some the major fights and.....the owl just get's curb stomped by all but 1
You can delude yourself into thinking Victory Dance is Broken but when that flower on it's head gets blown of by a Gust of Wind 🕊️ You'll come to your senses and realize it's a Forfeit Dance.
If you think anyone playing Pokemon knowingly sends out something you know is gonna die to whatever the opponent throws at you and not be able to kill it first, that's your own problem.
@@jbkerby I mean just know not to have her out against flying types in most circumstances, so just switch her out if you see one. Plus even if she does take a flying hit Victory Dance can sometimes make Lilligant take that hit without fainting
I think since I knew I wanted Hisuian Zoroark, I had there spot ready for them. That why I didn't mind waiting. I had Ganger holding Zoroark spot. A ghost for a ghost.
I caught a Shiny Hisuian Growlithe during a mass outbreak. While I was searching for a fire stone for my regular Hisuian Growlithe. I was going to use Hisuian Arcanine in honor of my ex co-worker whose favorite mon is Arcanine. He was lit with joy and he was surprised that I found one.
Omigosh congrats, that's so cool! I got a shiny tentacruel and I was literally just thinking about how funny it would be if a shiny just popped up and well, pop up it did and I had to take a breather coz I was laughing too much at the coincidental occurrence.
One issue I have with a few of the new hisuian forms is their 4x weakness to a type. Lilligent and decidueye have the flying type. Arcanine with water and ground. As long as you avoid those, they're all pretty awesome!
I was about to comment that, Hisui Lilligant is a beast because of Victory Dance. I'm sorta sad he didn't bring up Victory Dance and just how strong it is. In my mind she should be much higher.
I've noticed that MysticUmbreon has a tendency to sleep on status moves. He seems to only focus on coverage and the ability to counter weaknesses... Despite the fact that they're an entire team to handle those weaknesses.
I actually thought sneasle's evo was so good in my playthrough. The fact it got both bulk up and drain punch meant it almost never died. And it got shadow claw to fight psychic types.
Hisuin Avalugg is such a dissapointment, the optimized stats are for the most part not that good, and Ice Rock is way, WAY worse than just the Ice type.
How could Arcanine be so high up when it’s typing got worst? It does look amazing, i love the design, but the timing in which you get it leaves it frail to the water and ground types you face at that point in the game. I think it could be a peg or two lower in my opinion. Great Pokémon though and fantastic video by the way.
@@fangzntalonz I’m not so sure i agree. I think arcanine has always had great coverage, as it does in this game too, but adding the rock type with so many bulldoze having Pokémon and water types everywhere makes it a tad bit of a defensive liability in my opinion. Losing the grass resistance is meh too. Still a great design and Pokémon for this region though, I’m planning to use it.
Yeah, Hisuian Arcanine just has a "Magcargo situation." It is a durable mon but in a horrible defensive typing (same goes for Hisui Avalugg as well, with it's comparison basically being it is like Aurorus)
@@fangzntalonz Arcanine does not have the speed stat to make it a fast offensive sweeper. Hisuian arcanine needed a better ability like rock head to make it worth using in serious competitive play. Coalossol is a fast offensive rock/fire that has a broken ability and has one of the best G-Max forms in SwSh. Arcanine is built more as a bulky intimidate Pokémon for VGC. G-Max Coalossol is an effective offensive rock/fire type; Hisuian arcanine is not!
I don't get why he didn't include it. He says at the beginning of the video that he isn't gonna include evolutions like Basculegion and Kleavor.......yet he included evolutions like Typhlosion Decidueye and Samarott
Hisuian Arcanine, Goodra, and Decidueye have been amazing to use so far in my playthrough, and I hope to add either Braviary or Zoroark later if I can. It says a lot when the regional forms are so good, your team consists of them.
@@bulborb8756 Because Hisui Lilligant exists? I mean to those who picked Rowlet their probably gonna keep it on the team, but you can't tell me Hisui Lilligant isn't some steep competition for it on terms of new form comparison.
@@astralguardian5930 tbh, decudeye's best fighting move it has is its signature move triple arrows, lilligant on the other hand has a great boosting move in Victory Dance and has close combat
I don't really see the problem with Pokemon not being able to counter a type they're weak too... like... that's why you have a whole team, to cover each Pokemon's weaknesses.
Both type and counter moves are required to build a strong team because when it is dismantled by an opponent who sees this weakness, you're 😴 on an opportunity to reach a Victorious outcome so you won't ever see the problem.
@@jbkerby Okay but the fact is your other Pokemon should be able to cover those weaknesses. One singular Pokemon isn't gonna be able to counter every type its weak to. Hisiuan Zoroark has one weakness easily covered by another team member. I don't think it's fair to considering it 'disappointing' because it can't deal with its singular weakness. Although technically it can if you want to use Rock Smash on it lol.
@@PARAD0XPHANT0M I mean that goes for a lot of Pokemon though. I don't think it should be points against them because of very specific circumstances. Also very few Pokemon type combos have one singular weakness, it's easy to have multiple Pokemon cover what another on the team is weak to.
“Hisuian electrode has the same stats as normal electrode.” Hisuian electrode having 10 points in speed higher than original electrode: *angry grass ball noises*
I love the three starters, but Arcanine, Goodra, and Overqwil are my favorite new additions. Hoping we get to see more in the future; I think Whiscash deserves a Hisuian form given the Namazu’s role in Japanese mythology
My one complaint about Hisuian Goodra is it doesn't learn Flash Cannon. I would also wager that Hisuian Decidueye is better than Samurott because the Fighting type absolutely dominates in Hisui and Decidueye learns better and more accurate moves for its typing. Leaf Blade, Triple Arrows, Brave Bird, and Shadow Claw tears through basically any boss in the game. I will say Oshawott is very useful for Kleavor but you can easily counter that by catching a Buizel very early in the game. Decidueye just does more irreplaceable things than the other two starters.
while it was only 3 (2 if you only count fully evolved) gen 6 pokemon that got a regional form, its still nice they aren't ONLY using gen 1 mon's for regional forms seeing as they are picking pokemon from gen's 2-6 too
Ursaluna not being on this list at all is crazy! Sure the evolution is annoying, but you can get it by the second area. It has amazing stats and thanks to the normal typing gives it access to great coverage moves. Its 140 base attack and it having bulk up, high horsepower, ice punch, and giga impact / double edge making this bear a crazy anchor on my team!
The shell fits Goodra so well that I didn’t notice it when I encountered the Alpha in the story. It wasn’t until after that I realized it was steel type.
i mean i looked up when it comes to the nobles and....yeah oshawott has the best performance of the 3: rowlet: get's curb stomped by nearly all of them cyndaquil: about the same issue as rowlet but performs slightly better oshawott: actually does the best against a majority of the nobles
I picked Oshawott because Rowlet was in Sword and Shield and Cyndaquil was in Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. There’s no competition except for the rumored Manaphy and Hisuian Qwilfish in the Canalave library. Plus Bubble is back, meaning I can use Water types the right way again. I might run an almost mono water type team, with Samurott, Empoleon or Phione, Buizel, Mantyke, Overqwil, and Manaphy.
@@jld12er30 Actually, if your star rank is high enough, all you need to do is catch a Hisuian Qwilfish and have the Cobalt Coastlands unlocked to be able to accept The Sea's Legend request, so they're not actually locked to the post-game.
Same, could careless if it is in late game area, as long as i could get my hand on it and use it to do side mission and stuff. This game isn't only about the story, but exploration too, not to mention the post game content.
o-o Not only did I ADD Zoroark to my team... and he's been in my team since... I went through the trouble to hunt a SHINY Zoroark. Say what you will about how late you get it. It's best Pokemon in my book. XD "My book". XD
Lots of bias on Typhlosion. Raised it up despite it’s lacking movepool, but held Bravairy down because it doesn’t have an answer to Rock types. I used a Braviary on my L:A team, and it’s kinda like a pseudo-tank (That can still hit pretty hard) if you can get a Bulk Up off, then hit the enemy with Mystical Fire. With Agile style being a thing, you can pull that off quite often actually It’s lacking in speed, true. But that’s when Esper Wing comes into play, it raises your action speed so even though you have a base 65 speed, you’ll still have moments where you can attack twice with Esper Wing
Reasons those typings might scream a long time ago. Poison: well. People used poison a lot more a while ago, and you dont see many people using it now. Fighting: a good form of defence if you dont have weapons, Ghost: *ok come on this is easy* Dark: i dont know lol
When I finally play this game I'm going to definitely get hisuian Zorua I really love it's design and I love hisuian Zororak's design too. My favorites are Hisuian Zorua, hisuian Zororak, hisiuian Growlithe, hisuian Decidueye, hisuian Samurott and hisuian Typhlosion.
if anyone actually reads this. you can get qwillfish right away in the third area as a few of them spawn close to the southern shore lines. meaning you dont have to wait as late as the video implies and actually getting it without the need for basculegion. throw some honey and it'll come close if need be.
Personally I farmed for a lot of candies, and then replaced my flying type (sneasaler covers better than like 90% of flying types with its dummy stats) and then fed a zorua a plethera of candies to make it lvl 59 (my team was lvl 60) With how this game works, REPLACE YOUR TEAM MEMBERS, it may be sad but this game is built around catching op pokemon and beating up weak trainers, I personally used hisuian liligant and later a electrode when I could upgrade, because I can get sneasler, a stupidly op pokemon
An earlier ice area in a Pokémon game one day would be cool. The only Pokémon I swapped in very very late to my team were the other two starters you get in post game. Easy enough to train them up quickly, both are almost level 100 like the rest of my team now
My Legends Team in The Order of Which They Fall or Help Each Other = Ursaluna, Hisuan Braviary, Overqwil, Hisuan Goodra, Electrode, and Hisuan Samurott. - If There was a Good Fairy I would replace Braviary and lead with my Best Team = Hisuan Zoroark, Enamorus, Overqwil, Hisuan Goodra, Electrode, and Hisuan Samurott.
of all the new hisuian variants, it’s a tie with one being slightly higher than the other. samurott and arcanine. i started the game with oshawott not having too much faith in what it can do as samurott but when i saw it’s final evolution and new tricks i was sold. i knew i was gonna love arcanine in the game and it definitely did not disappoint.
All I’m saying, is I would’ve preferred a Machamp form to help us get up the mountain instead of sneasel/sneasler. His upper arms could hold us in a more natural way, or if you like the silly basket he could even hold it better than Sneasler. I mainly want Machamp because his belt does not fit in with the era, and I could imagine him being the only other Fighting/Rock type. And it’s not like you’d miss Sneasel. We still have the original in the game.
Your logic with this list makes no sense. You said you aren't gonna include evolutions like Basculegion and Kleavor yet you included Typhlosion Decidueye and Samarott? Last i checked those are evolutions. You didn't even follow your own rules when making your own list. Makes no sense at all
Wish they made the new pokemon unused types. Yes they did normal ghost, but fire fairy, fire grass, electric fighting, ice poison, ground fairy just come to mind and would be cool.
This dude didn’t jus call the best starter the worst starter….. First of all choice scarf + eruption + immune to fake out in a VGC setting is killing most things… especially boosted by sun… It’s the fastest starter with the highest offensive stat with the best move pool…. Decidueye is too slow and samurott doesn’t have the offense to be any good
I feel like late game is a bit of an understatement and furthermore shouldn't really quell your judgment on their placement on the list. I mean considering you beat all the nobles, you now have access to all the areas which means hard grinding and dex entries. It'd catch up in no time so long as you don't immediately turn in to the commander. Besides, the real late game boss fight, not gonna spoil it, but zoroark came in clutch for me, like REALLY clutch.
Hisuian goodra might be meta in gen 9 because duraludon was a disappointment And goodra is not he will take no damage from moonblast and dragon pulses while duraludon will die and Steel is my favourite type so I love every steel pokemon outside of the hair mole thing
Also, why can’t we ever get an icy area early in Pokémon games? I love ice types and would love to use some of them for longer than I usually get to
ROM Hacks usually feature the early ice area you are looking for. Unbound and Gaia are excellent
Icy climates are challenging so it makes sense to be late game probably. It’d be cool to see an early snowy area that’s livable.
@@sifibruh7055 yea it does, but it wouldn’t have to be anything crazy to make one somewhat livable and give us a handful of ice types to choose from
@@redkingdom15 I’ll have to check them out
@@joeyteter9383 the snowy area in Galar is an example of one that could be early game. I feel like the games that don’t should have a cave early on with a somewhat hidden icy part.

100% agreed. I am certain that once Pokemon Home allows for the transfer of the Hisuian pokemon, their movepools were not only be expanded upon, the new moves may be adjusted to fit in-line with the PvP format.

while it was only 3 (2 if you only count fully evolved) gen 6 pokemon that got a regional form, its still nice they aren't ONLY using gen 1 mon's for regional forms seeing as they are picking pokemon from gen's 2-6 too
Fun fact: a bear without teeth is a gummy bear
Ursaluna not being on this list at all is crazy! Sure the evolution is annoying, but you can get it by the second area. It has amazing stats and thanks to the normal typing gives it access to great coverage moves. Its 140 base attack and it having bulk up, high horsepower, ice punch, and giga impact / double edge making this bear a crazy anchor on my team!
Exactly, especially the moves you mentioned above, Such a beast with Bulk Up increases both atk and def

The shell fits Goodra so well that I didn’t notice it when I encountered the Alpha in the story. It wasn’t until after that I realized it was steel type.
My favorite of the hisuian forms are the starters, Arcanine, Electrode, Lilligant, Zoroark, and Goodra.
I doubted your choice for zoroark
but seeing Samurott as best starter made me happy
i mean i looked up when it comes to the nobles and....yeah oshawott has the best performance of the 3:
rowlet: get's curb stomped by nearly all of them
cyndaquil: about the same issue as rowlet but performs slightly better
oshawott: actually does the best against a majority of the nobles
@@bulborb8756 a good time to be a samurott fan
@@UmbraStarWolf sure is, while there are 2 nobles oshawott will struggle with, the others oshawott is able to handle
I picked Oshawott because Rowlet was in Sword and Shield and Cyndaquil was in Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. There’s no competition except for the rumored Manaphy and Hisuian Qwilfish in the Canalave library. Plus Bubble is back, meaning I can use Water types the right way again. I might run an almost mono water type team, with Samurott, Empoleon or Phione, Buizel, Mantyke, Overqwil, and Manaphy.
manaphy and phione is post game
@@jld12er30 Actually, if your star rank is high enough, all you need to do is catch a Hisuian Qwilfish and have the Cobalt Coastlands unlocked to be able to accept The Sea's Legend request, so they're not actually locked to the post-game.
I mean typhlosion is definitely the best of the starters from a usage standpoint but you do you
I think you miss the 140 ap Bear dude!
Did I still immediately bench another member for zoroark and grind it all the way up…? Yes, yes I did.
Same, could careless if it is in late game area, as long as i could get my hand on it and use it to do side mission and stuff. This game isn't only about the story, but exploration too, not to mention the post game content.
Fun fact: night is just one big shadow
I have never seen the relative time in which the player can get these pokemon affect a tier list to such a degree
electrode has been the mvp of my team by far. One of my favorite new forms
Did you completely forget about Ursa rings new evolution ?
This is solely Hisuian forms. He said he’d make a separate video for the entirely new mons
he wasnt counting the evolutions brah, so he wasnt going to talk about overqwil, sneasler, ursaluna, wyrdeer, basculegion or kleavor
this list only covers hisuian forms, not the new evolutions like ursuluna, kleavor, and basculegion
@@bulborb8756 but he talks about the starters? How does that make any sense xD
@@LegoReader12345hello so why even cover the starters? Kinda dumb if you ask me
Man, this was a solid listling. Gotta wonder what you'll do for the best teams. Can't wait to see!
Great lists mystic, waiting for more videos and happy weekend
It is also a alpha sligoo in the same area as goomy
I completely disagree with electrode being the worst. His speed stat makes him able to fire off 2-3 attacks before any other pokemon can do one.
Hisuian goodra is still super cute imo
As soon as I saw Hisuan Lilligant a Grass that can't fight as one of The Top 6 Best, I knew this was a favorite list based on design.
lilligant can fight its not bad just there are better grass types for it to be on my team but its not a bad mon at all
My team in Sinnoh has a Glaceon and in Hisui I will have a Zoroark.
My team in Sinnoh has a Glaceon and in Hisui i have a Braviary and a Lilligant
I wonder where Hisuian Goodra would be in between the other pseudo’s?
Below Goodra that will smack it with Focus Blast
@@jbkerby focus miss lol!!
It would be RU at best
That Arcanine using Raging Fury on a Shiny Gastly.
This game is a blast,might consider adding Zorua. My team so far Decidueye
Avalugg
Goodra
Flareon
Overquil
Yanmega
Bro really spoiled all the nobles with just pictures
I think you missed out on a key thing with Lilligant. Victory Dance is way too strong to ignore.
I love hisuian samurott so much!!!
o-o Not only did I ADD Zoroark to my team... and he's been in my team since... I went through the trouble to hunt a SHINY Zoroark. Say what you will about how late you get it. It's best Pokemon in my book. XD
"My book". XD
Lots of bias on Typhlosion. Raised it up despite it’s lacking movepool, but held Bravairy down because it doesn’t have an answer to Rock types.
I used a Braviary on my L:A team, and it’s kinda like a pseudo-tank (That can still hit pretty hard) if you can get a Bulk Up off, then hit the enemy with Mystical Fire. With Agile style being a thing, you can pull that off quite often actually
It’s lacking in speed, true. But that’s when Esper Wing comes into play, it raises your action speed so even though you have a base 65 speed, you’ll still have moments where you can attack twice with Esper Wing
Fun fact: if you fall out of a plane without a parachute you will fall for the rest of your life
I wish umbreon had a different form
Goodra was absolutely the MVP of my team
Goodra is a beast! Absolutely vital for so much of yhe game in my playthrough, could ruin most of the game with it and samurott together...
4:56 Though there is an alpha variant you can get later on in the high 50’s and it’s honestly amazing
Reasons those typings might scream a long time ago.
Poison: well. People used poison a lot more a while ago, and you dont see many people using it now.
Fighting: a good form of defence if you dont have weapons,
Ghost: *ok come on this is easy*
Dark: i dont know lol
When I finally play this game I'm going to definitely get hisuian Zorua I really love it's design and I love hisuian Zororak's design too. My favorites are Hisuian Zorua, hisuian Zororak, hisiuian Growlithe, hisuian Decidueye, hisuian Samurott and hisuian Typhlosion.
My favorite hisuian forms is hisuian typhlosion & hisuian decidueye & hisuian samurott
if anyone actually reads this. you can get qwillfish right away in the third area as a few of them spawn close to the southern shore lines. meaning you dont have to wait as late as the video implies and actually getting it without the need for basculegion. throw some honey and it'll come close if need be.
Personally I farmed for a lot of candies, and then replaced my flying type (sneasaler covers better than like 90% of flying types with its dummy stats) and then fed a zorua a plethera of candies to make it lvl 59 (my team was lvl 60)
With how this game works, REPLACE YOUR TEAM MEMBERS, it may be sad but this game is built around catching op pokemon and beating up weak trainers, I personally used hisuian liligant and later a electrode when I could upgrade, because I can get sneasler, a stupidly op pokemon
An earlier ice area in a Pokémon game one day would be cool. The only Pokémon I swapped in very very late to my team were the other two starters you get in post game. Easy enough to train them up quickly, both are almost level 100 like the rest of my team now
My Legends Team in The Order of Which They Fall or Help Each Other = Ursaluna, Hisuan Braviary, Overqwil, Hisuan Goodra, Electrode, and Hisuan Samurott.
- If There was a Good Fairy I would replace Braviary and lead with my Best Team = Hisuan Zoroark, Enamorus, Overqwil, Hisuan Goodra, Electrode, and Hisuan Samurott.
of all the new hisuian variants, it’s a tie with one being slightly higher than the other. samurott and arcanine. i started the game with oshawott not having too much faith in what it can do as samurott but when i saw it’s final evolution and new tricks i was sold. i knew i was gonna love arcanine in the game and it definitely did not disappoint.
What about Ursaluna? It hits like a truck and even has some coverage with moves like play rough
That's a new pokemon not a hisuian form
But yah it is easily among the top 3 introduced
I don't limit myself to using 6. I spend hours training at least a box's worth now that all Pokémon get experience. It's a way to avoid overleveling.
Victory Dance Liligant is OP
Exactlyyyy , and then Drain Punch
Hisuian Goodra PUTS IN WORRRK.
All I’m saying, is I would’ve preferred a Machamp form to help us get up the mountain instead of sneasel/sneasler. His upper arms could hold us in a more natural way, or if you like the silly basket he could even hold it better than Sneasler. I mainly want Machamp because his belt does not fit in with the era, and I could imagine him being the only other Fighting/Rock type. And it’s not like you’d miss Sneasel. We still have the original in the game.
Your logic with this list makes no sense. You said you aren't gonna include evolutions like Basculegion and Kleavor yet you included Typhlosion Decidueye and Samarott? Last i checked those are evolutions. You didn't even follow your own rules when making your own list. Makes no sense at all
One thing you didn't mention was Liligant's signature move, Victory Dance, which is an incredible set-up move
I love legends acreus
Kind of sad about electrode, that mon deserved to have a spotlight after being in nearly every generation one way or another
Me upon seeing Hisuian Goodra for the 1st time: "Look at how they massacred my boy"
Goodra in Hisuan Form is now A Badra
Me smiling bc I used liligant, Goodra and samurott they carried my team at times
Wish they made the new pokemon unused types. Yes they did normal ghost, but fire fairy, fire grass, electric fighting, ice poison, ground fairy just come to mind and would be cool.
This dude didn’t jus call the best starter the worst starter…..
First of all choice scarf + eruption + immune to fake out in a VGC setting is killing most things… especially boosted by sun…
It’s the fastest starter with the highest offensive stat with the best move pool….
Decidueye is too slow and samurott doesn’t have the offense to be any good
I feel like late game is a bit of an understatement and furthermore shouldn't really quell your judgment on their placement on the list. I mean considering you beat all the nobles, you now have access to all the areas which means hard grinding and dex entries. It'd catch up in no time so long as you don't immediately turn in to the commander. Besides, the real late game boss fight, not gonna spoil it, but zoroark came in clutch for me, like REALLY clutch.
Goodra’s design change was shuttle but amazing
So Zoroark is lower than Avalugg, but you get them at the same time and rock ice is such a shit type
Goodra may be better in Hisuan form but it looks really tired. I bet that shell is heavy and really tiring. They look happier without it
I just got and beat the game and I agree with the no. 1 lol, it made me actually like goodra
Hisuian Goodra well deserved its place
Hisuian goodra might be meta in gen 9 because duraludon was a disappointment
And goodra is not he will take no damage from moonblast and dragon pulses while duraludon will die and Steel is my favourite type so I love every steel pokemon outside of the hair mole thing
Awesome video :)
I right at the Volo fight in my play through and I have both Samerott and an alpha Goodra before watching this video! Ironic isn’t it?
