How to improve: 355-356-477: Duskull-Dusclops-Dusknoir


1.Stats: Should Dusknoir get a stat boost, Evolution, Mega Evolution or nothing?

Dusknoir can have +15 BST boost, which will help it immensely. However, Dusknoir would be best fit with a Mega and a side evolution.

Regular Duskull can also have a side middle-evo as well, something more Specially oriented perhaps.

2.Should Dusknoir get more abilities?

Dusknoir can get Cursed Body or Iron Fist. There are other abilities like Synchronize, Magic Guard and Analytic available, but these would be the most thematically fitting. An insta-Gravity ability would be the best, though.

3.Should Dusknoir get more moves?

Yes. Outside of Phantom Force and Shadow Claw, Dusknoir can get Power Trip, Nasty Plot, Swords Dance, Bulk Up, Cosmic Power, Psycho Shift and Recover.

4.What additional typing Dusknoir can have?

Dark, Psychic and Fighting are the most obvious options, but Electric, Fire and Ice can also work.

How to improve: 155-156-157: Cyndaquil-Quilava-Typhlosion


1.Stats: Should Typhlosion get a stat boost, Evolution, Mega Evolution or nothing?

Typhlosion cannot get more stat boosts than +6. A side evolution with a real typing and stats would be good, but what Typhlosion needs most is a Mega Evolution with a real type and Ability.

2.Should Typhlosion get more abilities?

Definitely. Considering Typhlosion is just a re-skinned Charizard, it can get Solar Power or Tough Claws, but what would be most fitting for Typhlosion would be either White Smoke, Sheer Force, Reckless or Intimidate/Competitive.

3.Should Typhlosion get more moves?

Yes. Most obviously it should get older moves like Iron Tail, but it needs a wider range of moves. As it got Extrasensory in HGSS, it would make sense for it to get moves like Role Play, Ally Switch, Mirror Coat, Stored Power, and Power Trip. Nasty Plot would also be very good as a move, so would Swords Dance and Drain Punch. Head Smash would be useful as well.

4.What additional typing Typhlosion can have?

Fighting, Ground and Normal are the obvious types for Typhlosion, but it can get Rock, Steel and Dark as well.

How to improve: 585-586: Deerling-Sawsbuck


1.Stats: Should Sawsbuck get a stat boost, Evolution, Mega Evolution or nothing?

Despite being considered an early-game Pokémon in the Best Wishes animé, Sawsbuck is not an early game monster, but rather a mid-game one. This means its 475 BST is completely unacceptable in 2010, and most certainly in 2018 as well.

Sawsbuck can get at most +65 BST, but it would probably make more sense to have a middle-evo or an evolution.

A Mega could be good if its different forms gain alternate types in Mega Evolution, or a season related ability.

2.Should Sawsbuck get more abilities?

Yes. Outside of Serene Grace Sawsbuck's abilities are just above average, and it has nothing related to seasons, as seasons no longer exist in the current games.

3.Should Sawsbuck get more moves?

Yes.  More Ground and Rock-type moves like Stomping Tantrum, Magnitude, Earthquake and Stone Edge would be helpful. More Dark-type moves like Beat Up and Power Trip would be great as well.

4.What additional typing Sawsbuck can have?

Dark, Fighting, and potentially Ground and Electric are options. Sawsbuck has a really poor moveset, so the options are limited.
