Musing on a Hat and the Hair Beneath
So, the Misdreavus line is more for contests than combat. Not that their stats are bad or their move pools suck. However, being mono-type is debilitating for general damage output, and they aren't defensively powerful outside of the 3 immunities and a weakness that really knows where the weakest point of the line is, Physical Defense.
Iono giving a Levitate Pokemon Tera Electric is pure evil. 'Nuff said on that.
Flutter Mane is a strange case, and I don't know how to feel about it, yet. I think I like it better than when I first saw it in the leaks, since the dex image sucks as an introduction to its design. I will be trying to Shiny hunt it, in spite of having Violet.
Flutter Mane, Scream Tail, and Sandy Shocks all prove one thing. The Past Paradox Pokemon are from long before Legends: Arceus, because evolution stones clearly don't interact with these 'mon. They may not even be naturally-occuring in the world at that point. And Mega Stones are irradiated Evolution Stones. I want to see where this thread goes, and we'll never find out more.
On a completely unrelated note, I'm analyzing the full dex for a new Top 10 Pokemon. I don't think I'll make a video, but I might post it here, when I'm done with it.
