1:21 slight correction 4 move slot syndromes is when 4 move slot is not enough to cover all the basis for a Pokémon to do their job. Muk is run qs bulky pokemon that can throw a few puches. Muk want to run Curse for set up, Poison Jab for STAB, Fighting, Ice, or Ghost move for coverage, Rest for recovery and Explosion for burst damage on bulky mons.

I'd say you forgot to mention how Raichu finally got its due in some way in an Alolan form, but only somewhat helped up through a Terrain sweeper role with a slightly boosted coverage. Also, you kinda forgot to bring up the Paldean forms, but then again, they've not had much time to really say in impact. Also find the regional evo siblings & how they may've helped up or avenged their fallen siblings (such as how Sneasler has been avenging Weavile, Kleavor helping Scizor, & how Clodsire could tagteam with Quagsire)

[@rockowlgamer631]

They weren't "saved", they were replaced by the regional variants. Kantonian Ninetales still sucks while alolan ninetales just takes over for it. Unless they buff the older pokemon they will stay where they are.

[@crimsonmaelstrom573]

These Pokemon really did need something to help them. Glad Game Freak did something to help. Ninetails has always been one of my favorites and its Alolan form has made it my all time fav

[@TheChiog]

I'm not sure if I subscribe to the notion that these regional variants "helped" these pokemon. For example, introducing Gallade didn't change anything for Gardevoir, it was simply a new pokemon that looked similar and shared an origin. Same with regional variants. Hisuian Zoroark changes nothing for OG Zoroark. For all intents and purposes, it's a new pokemon that just happens to look similar. Don't get me wrong, I do think regional variants are cool. But unlike a new Evolution or a Mega, they change nothing for the OG, so I don't see how they are supposed to "help"

[@crimsonmaelstrom573]

@@TheChiogthey were given a new version that people might actually want to use. Like Ninetails for example: before Alola, the only form you had was the pure Fire type. Now, you can have one that is Ice/Fairy. Two of the best types in terms of moves. See how a new form helps these Pokemon?

[@TheChiog]

@@crimsonmaelstrom573 I don't think you understood what I was trying to say. Yes, Alonan Ninetails is cool. But its existence changes NOTHING for the OG Ninetails. It's effectively a completely new pokemon that simply looks similar to an existing one. When OG Ninetails was given the ability to set up the sun on the other hand, that DID change something for it. As I said, I do like these alternate forms as much as the next guy, but they aren't improvements, if anything, they are reboots.

[@kaitouluminous7114]

Hisuian Zoroark has 3 immunities not 2... Ghost is immune to normal & fighting while normal is immune to ghost. I love using it against the fighting team star boss since having it disguises as a Pokemon weak to fighting can basically get me through the fight with 0 damage

Saying that regional forms "saved" the original, is like saying that Street FIghter adding Evil Ryu into the game "saved" Ryu. If Ryu was a low tier but you liked his playstyle and then Evil Ryu was added who has a similar playstyle but is higher tier, it doesn't save Ryu because you're not playing Ryu. The original is still there, not being used. What's worse is that the regional form takes attention away from the original, which is made even worse when the regional form gets an exclusive evolution that the original doesn't have a counterpart for.

[@fokspoks]

Absolutely true, man. Samurott, Zoroark and Muk are a pure example of this problem. Everyone love their regional forms, while original ones now is even more invisible than they have been. Like, you surely will always use Hisuian Samurott over original, right? It's cooler, stronger, has better typing, a much, much better ability with combination of broken signature move, better stat spread and again it just looks so good if comparing to original Samurott. And i just can't see it as a buff

[@michaeleanthonyjr]

@@fokspoks This regional form gimmick has bothered me since Sw/Sh. It feels less creative than just making a new pokemon designed to fill a similar niche to another pokemon. It would be more creative to me to just make a new pokemon and tie it back to the old pokemon that it resembles, like Feebas and Purrloin, who are much better executions of the concept of a pokemon that is like a regional counterpart to an existing mon. People constantly asking for regional forms (especially as a way to buff an outdated mon) is wild to me because we've reached the point where we're asking for pokemon to just make the same pokemon, but with less creativity.

[@mr.thinmint2848]

[@wanderlustwarrior]

I can't see these pokemon as being "saved" by their regional variant for exactly the reason of the thumbnail. What exactly does the existence of a regional Muk, or Sirfetch'd or Cursola, do for the mon that's already in your box? Did they get a stat change or new ability? Does Kantonian Grimer evolve into Alolan Muk? Or Johtoan Corsola into a Rock/Ghost Pokemon? Did Kantonian Farfetch'd get an Absir'd evolution, too? No stat boost or ability? The answer is no to pretty much all of them, so in most cases it's not an improved old mon, it's effectively a new mon inspired by an old one.

[@marceloasensiofilho3833]

Kanto Dugtrio is better than the Alolan one because of Arena Trap which is a pretty damn good ability

[@irongrahn824]

These pokémon weren't saved. If anything they were ruined. Instead of actually fixing and saving the old forms, GF introduced new toys with the same name as the old ones. Old Farfetch'd and Corsola still sucks. Arcanine and Samurott are arguably worse as they're now outclassed by the new forms. To truly save them, they'd have to get rework with new moves, stats and/or abilities (such as Gallade), or even give them an evolution! The Primeape you caught in FRLG might suck, but at least you can evolve it. Your Samurott starter from BW? Tough luck.

[@lasercraft32]

I genuinely have NO CLUE what they were thinking when they designed Lilligant... "Lets make a Grass Type that can only learn 90% grass moves, with zero coverage options!" Its one of my favorite Gen 5 designs, but its practically unusable outside of niche support, despite its high special attack. It makes me sad. Hisuian Lilligant is way more viable, but its design is ugly (in my opinion at least... Its subjective) and takes away literally all the charm of the original. It barely even feels like the same Pokemon, and with its stats distributed for an entirely different playstyle they should have just made it a split evolution instead (like Gardevior and Gallade... Except not tied to gender since all Petilil are female).

[@johnpaulcross424]

Starting probably with Gen8's Obstagoon, GameFreak really started making 'better versions' of Pokémon, instead of alternative versions. Obstagoon, Overqwil and Hydrapple are cool, sure, but they make Hoenn Zigzagoon, Johto Qwilfish and Flapple and Appletun just obsolete. I wish they'd find a way to make alternative evolutions without destroying the originals.

[@antoniopriego5660]

I think you misunderstood what "four move syndrome" is, because it's just the opposite of "just having four good moves". If I'm not mistaken, people use that term to talk about Pokémon that have many good moves but can't fit all of them at the same time, to the point they cannot fulfill a role correctly. That typical "ugh I had to sacrifice this good coverage move to have another good coverafe move"

[@Pterokid1]

Would have loved if they buffed kanto-farfetchd . Like I like regionals but dang dude would love if the original mons got helped. Yes he got an atk increase to 95 but he needs an evo like his galar

[@PBandJSmoocher]

Just a small nitpick but the term "4 move syndrome" dosen't mean that a mon lacks a lot of viable moves, but rather the opposite as it applies to a mon who has tons of options but can't fit them all into it's moveslot, for example how gliscor wants to fit all of roost, defog, knock off, u-turn and e.t.c but can't run all of them

Is no-one going to mention Alolan Persian? Took a pokemon that was objectively massively underwhelming ever since the crit mechanics of gen 1 and made it a solid pokemon which got top 8 at worlds 2 years in a row just by giving it dark typing and a great ability in fur coat to go with the great speed stat it had already. If they hadn't screwed it over by letting a certain other cat share its ability to parting shot, it would probably still be seeing reasonable use now

[@gheleorm8894]

Hi JPR. Some corrections i'd submit : Four moves slot syndrome (coz' i Never Heard of a four moves syndrome) is actually thé opposite : there are some much viable moves/sets to put on thé mon' that you'd liké it could run more than only four moves. Exemple : M-Charizard X = Flare Blitz + Dragon Claw + Earthquaque + Dragon Dance ... I wish i had Roost too to neglecte Stealth Rock Cheap Dmg ... For Muk, thé screenshot you show slashes options on the set, so it has many moves he Can chose for thé set 🧐. Alolan Dugtrio is even worst than regular one cause it has'nt Arena Trap as a skill. No says about Tauros of Paldea or Hisuian Goodra 😜? Otherly, régional variants could be more explored upon. Those who doesnt change thé base stat feels sad to me more so because Manau old 'mons could benefit alot by specialising instead of being all rounded UP (my poor Poliwrath 😭 ... A Ghost/Fightin spécial attacker one could be so cool!). Mostly ginving them Signature moves and or abilities IS often good enough to boost them beside thé type change.

[@Dingus888]

Had no idea going into legends how much better samurott got and I just chose the water starter cuz I am not a fan of Rowlett line being slow and just not a fan of cyndaquil line in general. Thing was a beast and even more of one in sv

[@sakurakitsunestar]

I feel quilfish and farfetch have benefited the most

[@discodeath8425]

You got the exact opposite of what "four move syndrome" means. Pokes that have "four move syndrome" suffer because there's a lot of moves they wish they could run, but are forced to only hold 4 at a time, just like every other poke. It is difficult to pin down what exactly the best moveset for these types of pokemon because they have so many options. Even in the example you posted, Muk can only have 4 moves, but you showed a set with 8 possibilities. Mew is an obvious example of one of these pokemon. Generally, pokemon that aren't amazing sweepers but do have many utility options will have this issue. Another example could be like Mandibuzz: Roost and Defog are must-haves, but everything from Taunt, Foul Play, U-Turn, Toxic, and Knock Off are really great candidates.

​@@miikaroos3809being electric/psychic means it's one of the few pokemon that benefit from multiple terrains.

Its ability surge surfer doubles its speed when electric terrain is up meaning it goes from base 110 to base 220 speed with terrain. And while it also lacks rising voltage, it does come with electroball which works in tandem with surge surfer. Basically it's a ridiculously fast sweeper when electric terrain is up.

[@sephikong8323]

3:30 Honestly, the fall of Ninetales was very predictable even all the way back from gen 5, of the 4 big weather setters in gen 5 (Abomasnow doesn't really count because lol Hail), it was far and away the worst one and the sun teams were also the most fragile in terms of teambuilding (only Sun Stall was a fairly consistent strategy). But Ninetales was almost always a hindrance to it's team, and as more and more of the things that made Sun bearable were banned, Ninetales just got cast further and further into the rabbithole (seriously, now that it cannot even Hypnosis, I dare say that Abomasnow is a better Pokemon in OU than Ninetales, at least you have the fringe option of Darmanitan + Victini to give a reason to play Sun but ....... Ninetales is complete deadweight). Even back in Gen 5 it was very apparent that the *instant* another sun setter came Ninetales would be cast to the shadow realm, that thing was *bad* . I am actually amazed at how little buffs the original form got throughout the years, it's actually insane how left behind it is (especially compared to Arcanine)
