Makes me wonder how different the results would be if there had been a way to get their input. The poll ended up reflecting a lot of older fans more than younger ones because of how it was run-not as many grade schoolers would understand how to go through all the steps that had to be done. A few scored high because a lot of fans wish they were stronger, like Flygon and Luxray-perhaps that was a factor in Lycanroc placing so high up. Anyways for me, Lycanroc is my favorite Gen 7 Pokmon, and my second favorite of all time (beaten by Sceptile). Unless if it was for Smash, or an announcement. But why though You can’t even catch it anymore. Some high rankers are there because they're cute, like Snom, Rowlet, and Piplup. Well, sht, Nintendo made a tweet about Dusk Form Lycanroc and an advertisement for buying USUM. 'Course there're also a handful of exceptions. Lycanroc was not a force competitively, was overshadowed by several other mons within its generation tier-wise, yet still managed to outpace almost all of them. This effect seems to be more pronounced in newer generations than older ones (nostalgia is a bigger factor the further back you go), and Galar is a prime example with its Top 10: Dragapault, Corviknight, and Cinderace have firmly anchored themselves into OU, Toxtricity and Inteleon see use on OU teams despite being UU, and Zacian may be the single strongest mon in the entire metagame right now! It says something that 7 out of 8 first place finishers from each region have been mainstays in OU, Ubers, and/or VGC recently. Midday Form and Midnight Form were available in Pokmon Sun & Moon, while Dusk Form was added in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon. All I needed was who ranked where, not individual votes, so this worked fine for the analysis I wanted to do.Īnd as I suspected, one of the big factors in who ranked high was competitive strength- the more powerful they are ingame or against other players, the more attached people became. Lycanroc is a Rock type Pokmon introduced in Generation 7. Remember how one of their big downsides competitively was a narrow offensive movepool that made them predictable and easy to check? Not anymore!Ĭlick to expand.Much appreciated. Because unless the data changes between now and June, they're getting access to Close Combat, Play Rough, and Psychic Fangs. Or in the case of all three Lycanroc forms, three. Considering the TR list includes several moves that weren't so easily available prior, it opens up possibilities for previously underpowered lines who might gain a notable move or two. While most movepool data was rendered unreadable, we do have the TM/TR lists for everyone now, including mons that weren't obtainable in the base game and may not even be obtainable in the DLC (future proofing, I suppose). Gen VII-VIII: - Michael February 13, 2020 Personal tables from Pokemon HOME include TMs/TRs learned by all pokemon, so have a dump.
