The Isle of Armor & The Crown Tundra DLC - RUMOR & SPECULATION Thread [Spoilers]

Wait
WHAT?

I didn't do the math on that and now it has to be on my team especially since it has Cheek Pouch. Greedent is surprisingly good

 

[FlygontheRavager]

So accurate:

Ok, I’m not gonna lie. This is freaking hilarious.

 

[WhiteBlair]

Almost every Galar Pokémon is competitively viable and I love it. Can't wait to learn and try out new strategies.

 

[Julia Artemis]

Cheek Pouch honestly is a great ability but have been on barely viable pokemon. Though that being said had some success with Diggersby and Dedenne. But definitely they didn't showcase the full potential of that ability

 

[Ignition]

I'm really glad they let you trade over the regional forms' "original" forms because although I love Galarian Darmanitan, Sheer Force Life Orb Darmanitan will always be a go to for me.

The TMs and TRs are really interesting to me. I like how they approached these essentially reworked Move Tutors

 

[Shinyjynx]

So accurate:

Soooooooooo funny, this was gold

 

[1rkhachatryan]

Haha I love how all the TR's are these good moves and then there's just Low Kick lol.

 

[Dragon Pulse]

So with Indeedee existing it makes Audino utterly pointless. It almost was that already without its Mega form. Also yeah saw Morpeko's stats and its probably worse than Plusle/Minun. What a way to waste Electric/Dark typing. Also not understanding why Garbodor's G Max move would cure poisoning that seems like a waste. Was hoping for a physical attack move that would toxic an opponent

Where can I see Morpeko's stats? Sorry if it has been asked before.

I'm very excited for the changes to the TM system. The last time it had such big changes were in Gen V, with reusable TMs.

 

[Pokemon Power]

I know what TMs are, but what are TR's?

 

[sketchersmeargle]

Technical Records. They are like TMs but are used for moves usually Move Tutors would teach. You can purchase them but they break after using it one time.

 

[Julia Artemis]

So Gigantamax Gengar is a real thing and it's cool as hell. Like imagine Guzzlord meets Gengar

 

[Kingudora]

Gigantamax Flapple looks fun!

It does look like the Apple worm Gigantamax from the guidebook, which it shares with Appletun.

 

[DSDark]

I know what TMs are, but what are TR's?

basically they are move tutor but you buy the TR and then use it on whatever pokemon it can be used on it. It breaks after use, however you can buy more

 

[WolfCypher]

I dont get the context of Duraludon Dynamaxing into a skyscraper.

 

[Orphalesion]

Maybe it's partially based on modern architecture? Still thinks it looks like an electric kettle.

 

[Mr.Fiend]

If I had to guess the remaining gigantamax pokemon would be dreadnaw for Nessa, centiskorch for kabu, Machamp for Bea, alcremie/hatterene for opal/bede, Lapras/Coalossal for Melony/Gordie, Grimmsnarl for marnie,no idea what Piers would use and I have to say the same for Raihan ( unless someone would point to another dragon that has a g max form that isn't flapple/appletun).
Edit: Nevermind, Raihan would use g max duraludon. Just leaves Piers then.

It's likely based on the shard. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Shard

 

[Julia Artemis]

I was also thinking it might be a joke on kaiju destroying tall buildings. Game Freak tends to do stuff like that

 

[Missingno.Fan]

Do we know all the Pokémon with Gigantamax forms?
