Base stats should be carnivine.

Edit:Also I really like your humor in conjunction with the editing style and dry delivery, keep up the good work.

Im from the future, Bibarel gets a new evo in Legends ZA and becomes the most OP thing the game has ever seen

Gamefreak after the slow bulky pokemon with a glass cannon type is terrible as a slow bulky pokemon: maybe im doing something wrong, im sure the next slow and bulky ice type will be good next time

[docxy]

Meowscarada is a successful grass dark because it throws out its grass dark typing

[valiantchris]

Really like your idea of giving Ultra Beasts (and Paradox Forms) different abilities alongside their default.

[monferno]

Honestly I’d love if the Ultra Beasts had hidden abilities

[alexgrissom]

This was a good idea pairing your entries with your Pokedoku!

Guzzlord can have an ability that restores hp when it knocks out an opponent. 25%, 33%, or 50% would work.

[monferno]

I want to see this same video but without legendaries tbh

[grunkleg.]

I did that Pokedoku a bit earlier, apparently Koraidon cannot learn Earthquake. Gets pretty much every other Ground-type TM, and it says in the Dex that it can split the land apart with its fists, that's more justification for getting the move than something like Ekans or Bonsly

[timbomb]

Oh, How funny for the Pokedoku. I just played your puzzle right now. LOL

I've said this before, but Mesprit would have seen a lot more play if its stat spread was 75 HP and 101 in every other stat. Yeah, it's defenses get a decent bit lower and its offenses also get hurt a smidge, but 101 base Speed would have carried it throughout Gens IV - VI as a poor man's Azelf and would still at least offer it the niche of being faster than base 100s nowadays. Not to mention the "balanced" member of the trio being slower than the tanky member of the trio is just wrong. Game Freak really chose the Lake trio out of all trios to suddenly break traditions.
Also, have Mystical Power either function as it did in Legends: Arceus (boost both Attack and Sp. Atk if the user's combined Attack and Sp. Atk are higher than its combined Defense and Sp. Def, otherwise boost Defense and Sp. Def) or just be a straight up free Work Up. It being a worse Torch Song is just crazy.

Guzzlord, Regirock, Regice, Wo-Chien, and Shaymin would all benefit from recovery moves. And real recovery moves at that, not just Rest or Synthesis (Wo-Chien doesn't even get access to _at least_ Synthesis, so there's that as a factor for it being so bad).
Regirock, Regice, and for completion's sake Registeel could all use a signature move as well, courtesy of their shiny new DLC siblings getting access to some (with varying degrees of usefulness). Regirock could get a Stone Axe variant, maybe make it 80 bp and 100% because of Legendary privileges. Regice could get a 100 bp Freeze-Dry variant due to being the embodiment of extreme cold. Registeel could have a Steel-type Body Press that damages based off its Defense _or_ Sp. Def, whichever one is higher. And give them their own type variants of Dragon's Maw, while you're at it. Yes, this is giving Registeel a 120 bp STAB coming off of one of its 150 base stats. No, it probably still wouldn't be too broken since it still lacks recovery.

Articuno needs Snow Warning instead of Snow Cloak. That's it.
Unless they reintroduce Frostbite as a status, then a Flame Body equivalent for that status would let it fit right back into its trio.

Munkidori... already has so much. 106 Speed, 130 Sp. Atk, Nasty Plot, dual 90+ bp STAB, a decent Ability, etc etc. The only thing I can think of is to swap its Hidden Ability for a better one. Maybe give it Competitive, to counter Intimidate like its big bro Okidogi? Now that I think of it, I thought Munkidori _did_ have Competitive? Must be someone's buff idea I thought was real (because Munkidori's kit is so forgettable).

you didn't have to roast guzzlord like that

Just want to say your PokeDoku was awesome! I ticked off 9 new dex entries!🎉🎉🎉 subbed!

[insomniacnerd]

Giving Regirock, a Pokémon with that kinda bulk, Sturdy really does just not synergize well.

[lasercraft]

in my opinion, Okidogi, Monkidori, and Fezandipiti barely feel like legendaries at all (Monkidori especially). Their names don't sound mystical or powerful, they sound like "haha funny pun name" like normal common Pokemon, and they look like plush toys. Fezandipiti is the closes to actually looking like a legendary, but still not quite there.

I feel like they're only legendary for the sake of their "lore" related to Pecharunt. They easily could have just been unique forms of normal Pokemon, kinda like how Bloodmoon Ursaluna is just an alternate form of Ursaluna, but with extra lore, rather than a legendary.

Matt's rotoscope avatar will always be a feast for the eyes

[BigPat]

I don't know why but I love Guzzlord. It's just so cool looking.

[curtis]

Guzzlord having “no bitches” is hilarious bro lol
