I do not know if this forum accepts this kind of question but I try: some mons of the LC, although they have a similar potential to their parent of the OU or the UU, are severely unusable for various reasons (bases stats too weak, lack of moves, etc). I have three examples:
View attachment 108023 Happiny (if he had Soft-Boiled),
View attachment 108024 Mantike (if he had Roost) and
View attachment 108025 Mareanie (if he had the same defensive stats as Ferroseed)
If Happiny had these stats:
HP:
150/
200
Attack: 5
Defense: 5
Sp. Atk: 15
Sp. Def:
75
Speed: 30
And this moveset:
Happiny @ Eviolite
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Bold Nature
- Seismic Toss
- Toxic
- Heal Bell
- Soft-Boiled
If we did a little fiction and projection, what would be their potential in PU? Would they be viable or outclassed by other tanks in this tier?
Same question for trappers like
View attachment 108028 Trapinch,
View attachment 108029Gothorita and
View attachment 108030 Wynaut (in the parallel world where Arena Trap and Shadow Trap are allowed)
