First and foremost, do you even know what a 'wall' is? Not being killed by one-hit doesn't make you a wall. Azumarill would kill this thing in 2 hits regardless of stats if this thing is more than 265 HP/def combined; which is unlikely.

Secondly, there's a grand total of EIGHT Pokemon with stats higher than 265 combined. Three of them are mega evolutions, three of them (including Primal Groudon) are legendary Pokemon and the remaining two are Steelix and Avalugg; literally the most defensive pokemon. I mean, gurl, don't let those rose colored glasses fool you. This thing is certainly NOT an Azumarill tank.

Do you know that I never said it would be an Azumarill wall? I just said it might be more defensive than you think?

Like what are you even doing? Chill out a bit.

Wait, with Water Compaction is it only defense or also special defense depending on what kind of water move is being used on it? It would be dumb to only have it's defense sharply increase when special attack water moves are more common

Well, from the trailer it was just defense. It very well could be both depending on whether the move is special or physical.

That's what the smogon damage calc told me In comparison a non-stab thunderbolt (which I assume would be the best option assuming this thing is special attacker since it used SB) would do less than half to azumarill; coming off a 100BP Special Attack; which is reasonable if it's HP/Def stats are high.

Defense only.

Did you even read the post before replying the first time. I literally saw someone saying it would tank azumarill, and I commented on it here. No one said this thing would be terrible in general, but an Azumarill tank, it is not.

No.

Sandygast has the new Water Compaction Ability, an Ability that no previous Pokémon has had. With Water Compaction, its Defense stat will go up by 2 if it’s hit with a Water-type move.

And it can still be a wall. Walls also have weaknesses like what are you talking about?

[BlooRiverAnimal]

Oh, nvm. It gets a +2 Def boost when hit with a water-type move.

No. It doesn't get "hit" by Rain Dance. Possibly Soak?

nnn. They should've gave it Water Absorb or Storm Drain. Trying to be edgy and falling short.

Well I hope those sand pokemon have high special defense/recovery moves at least or else their ability will lowkey be a flop.

That would've been better
Maybe as a hidden ability

I never replied to the post from whoever said it was an Azumarill tank

Like you're just taking any chance to attack the poor thing. Give it up already!

I think it'll get recover so that's a plus.

Storm Drain would have been so much better tbh. Power up dat Shadow Ball.

Fingers crossed.

Cause WC sounds good but I feel like it'll end up not being that good when it's all said and done.
