WOOOOO. Komala brings a lot to the tier, most notably being a rapid spinner who can actually beat common spinblockers. Status immunity is very nice and its movepool is in general very good with a lot of strong options. It feels kinda hard to fit everything you want on one set but thats more because it has so many good tools rather than needing too many moves on one set. Incredible addition to the tier that opens up a lot of options due to not needing to run boots on everything all the time.
The other spinner and yeah, that typings really gross. BUT, Ice/Rock is a good dual stab with strong stab moves, its got high attack and absurd defence with reliable recovery. If you're willing to use your tera on it I could see this being a good option but the complete dependence on tera makes it difficult to fit.
The difference in speed between this and regular tauros is important, while base 100 is still fast we have enough mons that outspeed it to where its more managble. That being said this mon is still kinda cracked, very powerful close combats and great coverage all around with the ability to set up with bulk up. Not convinced it's broken but I could see it being a bit silly.
Very glad this came back now. Sucker punch is good, spikes are good, and its a nice check to the waters and importantly to the last 2 drops. Also its just fun.
Raichu with a very scary stab combo. Cacturne is basically the only thing that can take on its stab combo (Dugtrio-Alola also resists it but just gets nuked by surf). Surge surfer makes it even scarier but that requires you to use pincurchin so its probably not an actual concern. Definitely a mon to keep an eye on.
Especially keep an eye on this fucker. One turn is all this needs to just steal a game. Of course this depends on how easily it can get that set up turn, its not exactly the bulkiest mon out there and needs half its hp to actually set up, but once it does unless you have a cacturne or sucker punch you probably lose. Without that set up it seems pretty mediocre, its quite slow and while it hits pretty hard I struggle to see why I would use that over basculin. Very scared of this mon
Excellent drops this time that I think are overall very good for the meta, having real hazard removal is big. Enjoy the meta while it lasts because home drops reach us next month, so thats gonna be fun.
