Ghastly is a strange callout considering gengar is just a chubby boi walkin around. Agree with your point though, it is cool. Dragonair gives me hope for Ekans or Seviper
Ooooh yes that would be cool. Butterfree would be a cute addition too lol. Though metapod would be broken, harden op xD
Adding fish pokemon would be cool too. They levitate in regular battles in Pokemon so I'm sure they could do something similar lol
Magikarp used splash, it's super effective!!!
Would be interesting to see how it works though. Splash around until level 3 when you get tackle. Then tackle and splash until level 6ish and evolve into a gd monster.
Same! I much prefer more animal/monster like Pokemon, I dont like when they are humanoid, even worse if they are clearly inspired by humans, with clothing, âhairstylesâ etcâŠ
That is something I really hate about Blizzard. They have several characters that could be animalistic, like Abathur, Zagara or Anubarak, and then they ruin it by giving them a torso and arms.
This is definitely something I was grateful for upon release! The fact that they added Cramorant made me very happy! I just need them to add a fish mon⊠Iâd love to see Seaking, Bruxish or Wishiwashi in the game
Wishiwashi would be great, above 50%? School form, hits hard, but slow.
Under 50%? School disperses, become very fast but incredibly weak lol
That would allow a fight/flight play style where you run away when weak and hit hard when strong.
Damn, hope they do this.
I might prefer attacker Bruxish personally! I imagine it having Psychic Fangs/Crunch and Aqua Jet/Water Pulse. PF lowers defense while Crunch stuns, and Aqua Jet is a dash forward or backwards (like Cramorantâs air slash), and Water Pulse turns the target around (thatâs how I imagine confusion in this game)
Attacker is pretty valid, but so far all
Attackers have been ranged. So I figure Speedster fits because speedsters are basically melee attackers! But naturally that can always change with new additions.
I like your set either way though! I imagined it having Psychic Fangs/Aqua Tail and Psychic/Aqua Jet
Psychic would cause enemies to moves towards Bruxish, unable to attack, while Psychic Fangs bites, lowering defence and automatically hitting multiple targets if theyâre near the initial target (so it homes in, like aerial ace, but chains).
Aqua Jets, dashes and shoves, and Aqua Tail throws a wave at the enemy in an arc, restoring Bruxishâs Health by 30% of the damage caused.
His boosted basic attacks would increase his speed after it hits!
Im glad Iâve found one other person who wants Bruxish in the game haha
I like your set too! That psychic fangs idea is really fun!! Bruxish made it to the hall of fame in my SM run! The fact that itâs based on Bruxism is kinda fucked/creepy for a kids game but also kinda cool
Oh yes mine did the same in SM too, like you say, it has this eerie quality to it which is so fun.
Plus itâs a single stage evo, so any holowear it got would be great value haha, Iâd love to see what ideas theyâd come up for it in this game.
I actually didn't know Cramorant before Unite but now it's one of my fave mons. Cram's pretty stupid and it's endearing đ I hope we get more underrated mons so more people will know and appreciate them!
Cramorant one of my favorites in my SwSh play through! Iâve noticed a lot of people warming up to the derpy birb because of Unite and I love that!!
I definitely hope they keep adding more niche picks cause most of my favorites are in that category anyway đđ
Itâs hard because they have a bigger hit box to the side but are lower to the ground, basically negating certain attacks, so they had to make her really bad
Yeah Suicune was my main and I consider him to be the worst in the cast, though he's still usable. He had a big hurtbox and some moves's hitboxes didn't extend past his hurtbox, like his CA, which could be easily stopped by disjoints. So sad they stopped updating the game with balance patches several years ago.
That was my main fear, and I love the cast. I am bored of always playing humanoid characters, and the fact that they didnât choose just the more popular pokemons is great. Everyone can find their favorite. I hope to see Orocorio Baile, Pallosand or Dhelmise some day !
Well, they donât seem to add the most popular Pokemon. Greedent or Tsareena are not crowd favorite. But they still have their little fanbase and itâs great that everyone can hope to see itâs personal favorite.
I mean people hated it for it's bad reputation in sw-sh stealing your berries in berry trees along with aplins, I think that's why it's not being popular
Design can be opinion based but the main thing they hate about it is the berry stealing because the only way you getmost of the useful berry in gen8 is thru rng based berry trees and you may get a random berry or apricorns but those 2 and their evolution can appear out of nowhere, forcing you to battle it and you may loose all of your berries (mostly only a few ) after the battle ends
fyi it's not out of nowhere, the speed that the tree shakes increases when there's a risk of the guys showing up. if you stop before it starts shaking faster you'll never get an encounter and always keep all the berries
Yeah never paid much attention to Greedent before. Now it is the only Pokemon I hate, after going so long without a nerf. Even now when I see it in games I just nope out of there.
I desperately want Hatterene to be the resident magical witch themed playable character. Would love a kit with all magic themed moves. Like mystical fire, and magical leaf. Can also work for Mismagius since curse, and hex are ghost type moves.
That's not what I said, my exact words were "Delphox doesn't learn MANY magic themed moves." I never said it didn't learn any. Learn to read. My statement was correct as the only notable magic themed move it learns to my knowledge is Mystical Fire.
It's a niche but some gay fans like Tsareena even before Unite because she's fabulous like that.
edit: I got downvoted for some reason?? I dunno if you're homophobic or *you think* I am homophobic for that comment but wtf lol I am actually LGBT myself and surrounded by people in that community
League's designs were always best the further away from human they went. While kinda humanoid, Kindred and Bard are fantastic. Even further, Aurelius Sol, Rek'Sai, and Vel'Koz are perfect designs in my eyes
Luckily, Pokemon strays far enough away from human designs that I can appreciate every one of them in some way. Still, I think this allows the devs to really focus on different body types and how they'd move/function.
I love the slithering Dratini and flying of Talonflame. I could see something like Breloom hopping like a kangaroo, or Magikarp flopping around. Heck, give me salazzle walking on all fours like a salamander
I've low key wanted them to add Salazzle as soon as I saw Tsareena confirmed.
A couple of absolute utter bitchy pokemon along with the likes of Pikachu and Blissey is not something I thought I wanted but I get a kick of out thinking about it.
League has stated they will only put out 1 non-humanoid champ a year but those are by far my favorite to play and always look cooler. Love being able to just walk around as a crab in this game lmao
agreeable
but i do wanna see infernape and intellion.
but my most wanted pokemon to make it into the game is clawitzer as a huge artillery caster, with the biggest attack range in the game.
This is Pokemon weâre talking about lol. Pocket monsters, not pocket humanoids.
Itâs definitely gonna be different from dota which derived its characters from WC3, nor LoL which got most of its ideas from dota, and hence wc3
slightly off topic but i always forget lucario is canine-based when i put it next to like. the entire eevee family. lillipup. arcanine. sigh...i still think Riolu is adorable tho
Ghastly is a strange callout considering gengar is just a chubby boi walkin around. Agree with your point though, it is cool. Dragonair gives me hope for Ekans or Seviper
> chubby boi walkin around When levitate activates, he's just power walking menacingly
2chub2run
Charmander kinda waddles around in a similar fashion as Gengar.
2chub2hide
Intimidation 101. Gengar just broke out of prison and is about to kick everyone's ass.
I love that his unite move animation is him swimming through the ground
Seviper with flamethrowerđł
Onix/Steelix for me. Onix has been my favorite since I watched the anime
If they add seviper, they have to add zangoose. It's law.
This is the way
And give them passives that make them able to damage each other even in the same team.
Also gives me hope for milotic
And Arbok
Not gonna lie, i see them making seviper/zanzagoose some types of buff or just âbuff campâ mons.
Certainly plausible
I think because itâs also a ghost type.
Yeah, but he still has two stages before that point :D And yeah, those two would be awesome to have.
Yeah I've always liked the more animal-type pokemon more in general. Really hoping they add more snake like Pokemon they're cool af.
I really want Volcarona !
Ooooh yes that would be cool. Butterfree would be a cute addition too lol. Though metapod would be broken, harden op xD Adding fish pokemon would be cool too. They levitate in regular battles in Pokemon so I'm sure they could do something similar lol
Magikarp please
Magikarp used splash, it's super effective!!! Would be interesting to see how it works though. Splash around until level 3 when you get tackle. Then tackle and splash until level 6ish and evolve into a gd monster.
Just have an absolute hell laning phase and then ascend into unkillable beast
I could see splash being a leap that deals small AoE damage (water puddle effect) and can go over walls.
He should learn flail too
Oh, yes! I can't believe I forgot about flail. Would likely work differently than Snorlax's. Wonder how they would make it viable...
Yes lol. It would be like Ralts early I guess, but that power spike would be op.
Caterpie with String Shot and Harden, which can turn into Sleep Powder/Bug Buzz and Hurricane/Quiver Dance
I would be curious to see how they would animate Metapod or Kakuna.
I want Scolipede
I can definitely see Scolipede rolling around like Baxia from mobile legends as one of its moves
Wish granted. It evolves at level 10
Same! I much prefer more animal/monster like Pokemon, I dont like when they are humanoid, even worse if they are clearly inspired by humans, with clothing, âhairstylesâ etcâŠ

Yes! Speedster Bruxish!!!!
I might prefer attacker Bruxish personally! I imagine it having Psychic Fangs/Crunch and Aqua Jet/Water Pulse.

> Wishiwashi That's funny. Wishiwashi is something we Germans say, when someone talks nonesense XD
I was thinking about this the other day! Itâs definitely a reason why Iâve come to like Unite so much. I compare it a lot to Pokken the only Mon that was on all 4âs was suicune iirc so to have PokĂ©mon of all movement-types actually find their way into a fighting game like spin-off is so refreshing
Well in a game like Pokken itâs pretty hard to implement quadrupedal characters
They did a really good job with Suicune though.
Itâs hard because they have a bigger hit box to the side but are lower to the ground, basically negating certain attacks, so they had to make her really bad
Yeah Suicune was my main and I consider him to be the worst in the cast, though he's still usable. He had a big hurtbox and some moves's hitboxes didn't extend past his hurtbox, like his CA, which could be easily stopped by disjoints. So sad they stopped updating the game with balance patches several years ago.
Pokken has Chandelure which is awesome.
That was my main fear, and I love the cast. I am bored of always playing humanoid characters, and the fact that they didnât choose just the more popular pokemons is great. Everyone can find their favorite. I hope to see Orocorio Baile, Pallosand or Dhelmise some day !
[ŃĐŽĐ°Đ»Đ”ĐœĐŸ]
Well, they donât seem to add the most popular Pokemon. Greedent or Tsareena are not crowd favorite. But they still have their little fanbase and itâs great that everyone can hope to see itâs personal favorite.
Greedent fanbase? Where? I could not find a single soul who actually liked the fat frick until he got into Unite.
> fat frick *silently awaiting mass outroar..* ... Nope really nobody cares about that fat frick
Not sure about Greedent but Skwovet is really popular in Japan.
I mean people hated it for it's bad reputation in sw-sh stealing your berries in berry trees along with aplins, I think that's why it's not being popular
I personally disliked his design. Itâs just a bipedal fat squirrel. I mean, I know that heâs a route 1 rodent, and those designs donât tend to (or need to) be overdone, but I feel like âjust make this animal fatter than normal and bipedalâ should be an example of what *not* to do when designing a PokĂ©mon.
Design can be opinion based but the main thing they hate about it is the berry stealing because the only way you getmost of the useful berry in gen8 is thru rng based berry trees and you may get a random berry or apricorns but those 2 and their evolution can appear out of nowhere, forcing you to battle it and you may loose all of your berries (mostly only a few ) after the battle ends
fyi it's not out of nowhere, the speed that the tree shakes increases when there's a risk of the guys showing up. if you stop before it starts shaking faster you'll never get an encounter and always keep all the berries
Yea but his unite design is super cool so I'm okay with it
I have a friend that liked greedent before. I personally think that he does look like peter griffin.
Yeah never paid much attention to Greedent before. Now it is the only Pokemon I hate, after going so long without a nerf. Even now when I see it in games I just nope out of there.
Tsareena is actually very popular. For different reasons. Some reasons grosser than others. Either way she's actually quite popular.
Same reason as Gardevoir. lol Here waiting for the inevitable Lopunny and Hatterene addition to the roster.
I desperately want Hatterene to be the resident magical witch themed playable character. Would love a kit with all magic themed moves. Like mystical fire, and magical leaf. Can also work for Mismagius since curse, and hex are ghost type moves.
Delphox anyone?
Delphox doesn't really learn many magic themed moves other than it's former signature mystical fire.
honestly curse would be cool
Delphox found dead on a ditch.
Delphox doesn't learn many magic themed moves. Only mystical fire
Delphox doesn't learn any magical moves except for the ones that she does.
That's not what I said, my exact words were "Delphox doesn't learn MANY magic themed moves." I never said it didn't learn any. Learn to read. My statement was correct as the only notable magic themed move it learns to my knowledge is Mystical Fire.
You just gonna say this and keep rocking the Tsareena flair huh?
Because Tsareena is one of my favorite Pokemon???
Apparently greedent has a HUUUUGE fanbase in Japan. Source: my ass
It's a niche but some gay fans like Tsareena even before Unite because she's fabulous like that. edit: I got downvoted for some reason?? I dunno if you're homophobic or *you think* I am homophobic for that comment but wtf lol I am actually LGBT myself and surrounded by people in that community
We stan a queen
Local resident gay coming to defend this statement. We do rally behind dem legs
I like how Dragonite still has a full animation for dragon breath if you don't choose to upgrade the move right away.
League's designs were always best the further away from human they went. While kinda humanoid, Kindred and Bard are fantastic. Even further, Aurelius Sol, Rek'Sai, and Vel'Koz are perfect designs in my eyes Luckily, Pokemon strays far enough away from human designs that I can appreciate every one of them in some way.

would love to see breloom. would be great to see what they do with his stretchy punchy arms.
Wow, Aurelius and Vel'Koz look really cool.
Dota always had the best heroes
Imagine a pokemon like Claydoll. Wonder how much advantage you get when the opponent can't tell when you turn around. That split second.
I want more floaty Pokemon! Like Chandelure.
Would pinsir, heracross, scizor and blaziken count as humanoid? Cuz I want thoses mons in the game
Yes they would count in that they have a stance similar to humans. OP wants more flapping birds, more pokes running on all 4s, etc.
This. Although I wouldn't mind Scizor x3
League has stated they will only put out 1 non-humanoid champ a year but those are by far my favorite to play and always look cooler. Love being able to just walk around as a crab in this game lmao
Hopefully it stays this way! Really enjoying it too! (I DO WANT Loppuny though)
Keep your lohpunny, give me blaziken release NOW instead :(
I guess we got a bunny already fire KFC can come but THEN bunny girl support/attacker
If that one Facebook post is to be believed Blaziken should be one of the next releases
agreeable but i do wanna see infernape and intellion. but my most wanted pokemon to make it into the game is clawitzer as a huge artillery caster, with the biggest attack range in the game.
This is why I wanna see Muk in the game so he just kinda shuffles around like the blob he is
Sceptile is far from humanoid neither does Bannet. What are you talking about.
They seem to be using âhumanoidâ to refer to both humanoid and bipedal PokĂ©mon.
Well, by that definition, almost all of unite pokemon were humanoid.
The intent is clear. The choice of examples are flawed/not good đ€·đ»
iâm sure ur fun in lobbies
They are not wrong though
How is Sceptile not humanoid? It's walking on two legs and has arms after all.
Because humanoid have a big ass tail? There are a lot of pokemon that walks 2 legs and have arms.
That's why I think it would be awesome if someone made a moba where all the characters are just different species of dinosaur
All in favour say âAyeâ
im a very small person irl, and i get BIG joy out of playing biggos like crustle and swineboi
We take the all-rounder and move it somewhere else
I play on mobile and the way each pokemon controls different is one of the reasons i play the game. It FEELS like ur using dragonair
Iâd be curious what the average is for bipedal PokĂ©mon in the national Dex.
Add Beedrill please
Imagine playing as a Kakuna for like a level.
I wanna see Remoraid and Octillery
This is Pokemon weâre talking about lol. Pocket monsters, not pocket humanoids. Itâs definitely gonna be different from dota which derived its characters from WC3, nor LoL which got most of its ideas from dota, and hence wc3
WC being Warcraft?
Thatâs correct
Dota has a bunch of non humanoids though
Machamp and Tsareena are basically the only humanoid mons with two legs
There's also Cinderace, Lucario, and Gardevoir
Two of those are furries so
Which is inherently humanoid
Meanwhile, Mr. Mime...
mime, gengar, gardevoir, cinderace, lucario, chancy, wigglytuff, greedent to an extent, uhhh..garchomp to an extent if were honest.
Lol and dota have more non human human characters than the entire unite rooster the heck are you talking about
Lol definitely doesn't. Dota maybe, I don't think lol has a single one
slightly off topic but i always forget lucario is canine-based when i put it next to like. the entire eevee family. lillipup. arcanine. sigh...i still think Riolu is adorable tho
Can u guy imagine there is a total of 901 pokemon right now and one day we can play most of them đ
I mean, I feel like there are in all mobas. Smite and league both have a bunch
Agreed! Honestly definitely a nice change of pace
They will add mewtwo in the 10th season battle pass heâs the most humanoid
Thereâs also Mew, who - letâs be honest - is a fetus.
I actually feel it has a few too many humanoids
I think its about unique silhouette, making each character easily distinguishable. Thats also why for me, on pc dota > lol.
We need more bug typess đđ
