I feel the same way. Some typings don't make sense at all, but altogether it's a great set of new Pokémon.

I like to see it as an EP or ~10 track album with good songs only, instead of a 14+ album with fillers

it's like a Madonna albums , every 4 years they release new album (generation of pokemon in this case)

Coincidentlly, if they release this amount of Pokemon every generation after this, by Gen X we'll have exactly 1000 Pokemon with room for one more to make 10001

I'm fine with 69 new Pokémon actually.
I just wish the stats/typing of some were a little bit better..

This is the main thing I'm upset about.

This is Dragalge his stats: 63-79 / 77-93 / 82-97 / 85-100 / 123-139 / 54-69

WUT is that???
He is slow, has very little HP, only decent Sp. Atk and okay Atk. The ONLY GOOD stat is the Sp. Def.
It doesn't make any sense.
I just hope the new Pokemon have amazing move pool to make up for these messes. Otherwise.....

And Florges should have been part Grass, Goodra part Fairy (and another Pseudo-Dragon, really?),
Clawitzer part something (Electric, Fire, Steel), Slurpuff and Aromatisse NOT pure Fairy, Vivillion Bug/Fairy etc, whatever.

The stat distribution made no sense this generation besides a few Pokemon. What's the point of having big defenses, but like so little HP?

I really hope something happened that made it weird like a change in the EV or IV system or something

Like wtf, all OU teams will probably consist of, mostly, the same Pokémon as Gen 5 and I'm not here for it.

Stop complaining about the damn stats and typing.

Jellicent is one of the best defensive Pokemon in OU and it has basically awful stats.

Celebi has God-AWFUL typing, yet it's a staple in OU.

Stats and typing are not everything.

[keshaspearsxo]

omg 4 days it is so close nowwee

[Sorbet]

Let me just bring Jellicent up again. It has okay HP and Sp. Def, the rest is kinda meh, but it's still OU

Mess at Relampago's ninja-ing

How does Celebi manage to survive in OU with that many weaknesses

I use to use one on my team in Gen IV with Suicune. They made such a great team together.

Apparently Tesco has managed to sell the game early. So a bunch of people have them now. Don't expect anything new though, it took Josh and Kenpachi like 4+ days to finish the story. Unless someone is speed running it, then we probably won't get much new information.

Even then we hardly have any information now. The game still feels like a mystery.

[Codex]

Ok but there are another 400 pokemon with bad stats/typing that aren't OU. Chances of it going OU with good stats would be significantly higher.

why do u care so much about what tier a pokemon is in the competitive world

Its wide movepool, great stats and excellent ability

I read about that too + that Nintendo fines $2000 for every copy that will be sold before the official release date

I don't know either. I'll use my fave Pokémon regardless in-game and the Pokémon will be put in a certain tier for a reason, so that they'll still be useful in the competitive field. This overreacting is unnecessary

And this generation is going to make the most changes to gameplay mechanics ever

[KillerChinchilla]

I think that will always be the Physical/Special split of gen 4

[Scorpio]

Sorbet do you know an updated list of all the new Pokemon?

I wanna think about my team now.

Blame Smogon for the tier system and how boring its become lately. No one wants to try to come up with new ways to play their Pokemon any more, so they just go on Smogon, see what moves it should have and they call it a day

We also still have no clue on how the Meta game will change in Gen VI, as each Gen varies. So we can't say what will be used a lot and not used a lot.
