Pet Mod Fusion Evolution [Gen 9] - Final Winners! | Closure

[Beaf Cultist]

- Only cool guy this slate. One of the coolest Moth fusions subbed period and also a good mon in its own right. Matcha Gotcha is a broken move and singlehandedly carries this mon's offensive kit.

- Would be a pretty nice mon (though the overlap with Legion is real). However, it won in the same slate as Anoraidon, and this mon is INSANELY broken in Rain lol. Hyperfast base Speed, Water STAB, 100% accurate STAB Hurricanes, can't be outsped by Booster Energy mons: this mon has literally everything. Either it or Anoraidon (or both) will need nerfs in the future.

- My guy. Tbh I think this mon is kinda busted. Those U-Turns are chunking for insane amounts, it enables Rain to the nth (especially with Wake), and SD sets kinda just win against slower teams (SD Fighting move Koff Tantrum is the set btw). Would've probably been fine on its own, but with Wake over Legion on Rain squads it's prob too much.

- What the fuck. Why did this win? it's literally just Decidulax (already an unpopular mon) but again, except with an objectively worse defensive profile lol. Good mon design! Good voting! Nice going guys! I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP I LOVE TIDY UP

- Like am I crazy or is this just... not good? Pretty much takes Aegislash and removes all of its good traits. Bad offensive typing, mediocre defensive typing, high speed means it's left vulnerable to opponents after attacking making it a bad abuser of Stance Change. I have no idea what the submitter was cooking when they claimed this guy abused Stance Change well lmao, I'd literally take base Aegi over this. Probably still gonna run it as a hazard lead tho (i LOVE deodon!!)

- It sure does psyspam.

- Mid incarnate. The sheer amount of Intim blocking in this meta is downright insane, and this mon offers very little else outside of that. Almost 100% gonna be forgotten within the week.

- Even worse than base somehow. What does this mon DO???? Like actually how is it so weirdly lacking in every aspect. If this got Roost or something there'd be hope but as-is I'm never running it.

- I'm not a believer. Loses to Belli (who also beats Corv), loses to Anoraidon. This just ain't a very good mon even in Sand.

- Heat but still not good lol. Run it if you're a real one (best koff absorber ever).

Pretty terrible slate, but definitely has that good old FE vibe. Council really should have tiebroken the 5 vote mons but ig we'll just have to live with that decision.

 

[DenebStargazer]

- a perfectly fine guy, i suppose. matcha gotcha fucked up and evil etc etc

- this guy seems cool. i think. personally. a little scarier than i intended given the addition of rain. otherwise yeah i can't really think of what else to say about it that i didnt say when subbing the thing

- we really let a mon named "anal ride on" win a slate huh

- why

- weird aegislash. sure. seems neat as a fast np guy or whatever

- god i hope this doesn't get expanding force ever

- fine mon. was under the apparently mistaken impression that this was dark/water, lmao. lc is funny as hell. not that i think it's like. good

- the mega ever

- my weird fucked up son. i believe in him

- the other mega ever

 

[earl]

- Got the most votes and its so valid for that. Probably a bit weak overall due to an awkward second attack but u can bully bad teams with CM sets regardless

- Server is having a normal one with this winner. Somehow they have collectively gaslit themselves into thinking a 103 SpA hurricane is impossible to switch into. send medical help asap. free the mega

- rain slate expect big pert to either turn out shit or end up banned after the next room tour

- ???

- Calling shitmon here, stab combo is dire and this is basically a slightly tuned-up deodon (noted mid mon). Dont run this as a suicide lead, you would be throwing

- Nice to have a competent faster psychic at least

- Doesnt this have no flying stab? No knock? No recovery? what does bro DO? another cool drop tho

- Uncripple this bitch

- let it win so it can drop... but it could be cool on sand

- same as above. will be such a sick top tier in feuu2

 

[G-Luke]

Lurret Lurret Lurret Lurret Lurret Lurret Lurret Lurret (every single person who voted for this will begin to cough in 3 hours)


Edit: Actually I hate all of you truly I hope u fart loudly in ur next 4 job interviews and it stinks because you all said Flutter Rain is not worthy of winning but Lurret is what the hell is wrong with you people

 

[Orangesodapop]

good grass filler that I believe we were missing. Great into quite a few mons due to its insane movepool, you can either go bulky tspikes or cm matcha, since matcha is broken af. Other grasses like celedos okiferro definitely suffer from its creation however since it’s just really good, with it being unkillable to those two. Stargrowth however is stargrowth, but this definitely creates less of a reason to use it imo, while it still being good. A tier mon

it is good to have with our recently introduced rain. Great coverage and strong stabs make it a potent mon for rain. Unfortunately I feel it is confined to rain as its spa stat doesn’t really help it outside. It’s other traits are quite nice tho is def a at least b tier mon

my only real qualms about this is that it is another physical fighting type, otherwise it is a rain mon but is a poor enabler of such. Sure you can run uturn with bulk and extender but it is no Peli. Otherwise the fact it can set rain, its attack stat is pretty high since freee attack boost, and has uturn knock, overall b + ish mon

it is not my fault this got in if you all didn’t vote it didn’t get in.. clearly not my fault.

Otherwise it can click tidy up and click uturn and knock. Despite the fact of it having a terrible typing I feel it isn’t the worst mon defensively since multi scale is an amazing ability, and it has competent bulk stats + roost knock uturn and even tidy up for removal if you need it. C tier but it’s usable

really don’t see where all the shitmon allegations r coming from. This thing has 120 spa and 120 speed and god isn’t close enough to save you from np boosted psycho boosts. Plus the fact it can pretty easily get these off vs some more passive pokemon. The only thing I’m sad about is that you can’t run cosmic power taunt because you don’t have a fixed damage move available. One of deods greatest sets. Solid b

omg le based based based… he has done it again… osp will you marry me…… (b or b +, imo a since op af)


has no utility outside of twave, really don’t like it that much, same goes with mega but the mega is pretty good bulky ddancer. We don’t talk about fishkarp. Tbh base has a good typing but not enough to use it. C tier, mega is B+. The fish is banned from lc

a much better sand abuser, both forms are viable, with mega clicking scale shot and winning as there are no switchins outside of pyuk. While base it definitely a mon, mega overshadows it. Base is c ish mega is b+

 

[Gekokeso]

With how decent a lot of the submission were on this slate I can't help but feel that people voted some of the absolute worse options available.

- Closest thing to a real mon. Looks pretty good into many things especially because of matcha gotcha, but we still gotta wait until we see it in practice.

- Giga Shitmon I don't know why people are freaking out about this thing. Free the mega it ain't do nothing wrong. Edit: holy shti looking atthe mega stabs the mega is legit worse than all our other water megas.

- Mega Goopert can finally pretend to not be Mega Garp. Besides that this mon is kinda crazy, Hits stupid hard and its only competition for weather is Urshiluxe, which this beats easily. Lets see if it gets nerfed soon.

- LMAO and here I was "oh I want to vote Kingigas but its best that I vote real mons instead of gimmicks like others" only for this to get in.

- I feel its overhated, 120 speed is decent and with Nasty Plot and Deoxy's coverage it can be decent, especially since its the fast psychic type.

- It sure do be psypam on a can. I don't actually remember if this has Eforce yet or if we are waiting for DLC but either way its a decently fast psychic at least.

- The worse dark flying of the slate. Only saving grace is toxic but yeez this mon is looking dire as fuck.

- It maybe can work as a decent DD sweeper? I think its lack of Stabs hurts it too much tho

- Not impressed, Sand still looks mid and this mon doesn't really beat many of the mons that give sands problems. With Anoraidon on the meta, Sand looks even more hopeless than before.

- Still not impressed.

 

[Loginator]

- Epic mon. Good defensive typing and STAB Gatcha Matcha is neat. Should work as a good set-up sweeper with defensive utility.
- Works well enough in rain, but otherwise might be too weak.
- 115 Attack with that ability is crazy. At least it doesn’t get Water STAB. We were talking about a rain setter but I didn’t expect it to be this optimized lol. I did vote for it so I can’t complain.
- This is literally just worse Lugizar. I can’t believe you people didn’t vote for that instead. It’s decently fast with good utility and Multiscale, but that typing kinda ruins it. Tidy Up isn’t really a distinct niche lol.
- I don’t think this mon is that bad. I did vote for it because I liked it switching between bulky fast and offensive fast, working as a suicide lead or set-up sweeper. Yeah switching into your frail form first most of the time when attacking kinda sucks but if you plot enough you might OHKO so that’s not an issue! I think. Suicide leads are a bit more rough but I think with max HP it shouldn’t be too bad. Typing isn’t fantastic but it’s still Steel.
- This doesn’t even get Expanding Force so what is the point to this mon exactly? It sure is a powerful Psychic! Idk if PsyTerrain is that necessary of a niche but what do I know.
- Idk about this. Defensive typing, bulk, and Intimidate is cool but this has no recovery and it has poor STABs so I’m not sure.
- Wow I sure love pure Dark with Crunch as my only STAB option! No item is just the cherry on top! It has big stats to be fair but I don’t think it’s worth it.
- Seems alright. I like mixed attackers and I would prefer any sand sweeper over Corvizolt. Being walled by Fairies kinda sucks tho. Offensive typing really isn’t that impressive lol.
- Competes extremely hard with mega Overgyara so that’s a funny coincidence. This has an actual STAB and the ability to go special but the bulk is way worse. Also 81 speed makes it seem like it’s forced to do Dragon Dance anyways.

 

[Bobsican]

- Probably the best sub that got in from the bunch, it may feel like a budget , but it can fill offensive and defensive roles.

- This isn't concerningly strong in rain, lol, worry about and on that. Anyways, this is a nice anti-meta mon.

- Rain is here and will definitely change the meta, if Teras were legal I bet this'd have a lot of sets, but as it's not, it's going to just be a rain pivot, sweeper sets seem more situational.

- On retrospective Tidy Up is quite overrated, and this speed tying with base (especially when competing with Booster Energy after a Tidy Up) can be annoying, a lack of a good Normal STAB since Return is dexit'd by the rules of this mod also does no favors.

- Y'all haven't seen Speed invested from what I've seen, this can just preserve its bulk by doing setup first then hitting hard, I'd say it could even be used as a wall, but its HP is still a bit poor to be downright used as a wall per-say.

- A potent Defog punisher, huh? INB4 this gets Expanding Force in DLC2 and ends up having to be nerfed.

- TBH this is the biggest waste of a meta slot, as it has been said before this has no moves of note besides hazards, legit just use (sorry for confusing it with in my earlier post, lol) instead unless you want hazards so badly, in which case run either (Spikes) or (Toxic Spikes), running both at once is quite a waste for something that doesn't even force out relevant hazard removers.

- This is even worse, only real niche is Mold Breaker Earthquake and otherwise is entirely outclassed by .

- Yay, 2, really boring IMO, all this does is remove any niche whatsoever of in this meta, please rework while we're at it at this point, BTW.

- I doubt this'd see much use, is right there, with innate STABs giving a bigger multiplier than only Sand Force, and speaking of which...

- Competes extremely hard with mega Overgyara so that’s a funny coincidence. This has an actual STAB and the ability to go special but the bulk is way worse. Also 81 speed makes it seem like it’s forced to do Dragon Dance anyways.

...This doesn't get Dragon Dance, Scale Shot would be the play, but as we've seen in NatDex that kind of strategies are quite inconsistent, wouldn't recommend.

 

[AquaticPanic]

So, as you may kno, duo to the voting bot making a mistake, Lurret and Lelecuno were removed from the winners list. We made a quick tiebreaker vote to allow people to replace these two losses with any of the Pokémon who were previously tied at 4 votes. So, with that all done, allow me to introduce you to our final final winners:


LELECUNO-GALAR

90 / 85 / 85 / 127 / 107 / 99
Mind Domain - Effects of Psychic Surge. When this Pokémon’s stats are lowered by an opponent, raises Sp. Atk by 2 and sets Psychic Terrain.



FARINAPE

100 / 100 / 70 / 110 / 70 / 95
Armor Fist - Immune to priority and punching moves. Its own have 1.2 power.


CHIMCHARIG

65 / 75 / 55 / 75 / 55 / 75
Fire Drinker - Immune to Fire and Grass-type moves. +1 Attack when hit by either. Blaze effects.

Vote Count

Lelecuno - 7
Farinape - 7

Flutter Rain -6

Accel Pao - 2

Kingigigas - 1
Lurret - 1

Per people's request, we have also decided to Unban Mega Aero Wake. As for what's next, we do plan on doing playtesting tours sometime soon. However, since the Indigo Disk DLC is dropping soon and that will affect our movepools, it would be wiser to wait until the DLC drops first. We will keep you informed whenever we have any further news.

 

[Gekokeso]

"We are going back in time, to the last FESV slate, to get Lurret off the slate."

"That's right, we are going back in time, to the last FESV slate, to get Lurret off the slate."

 

[G-Luke]

Farinape is really mid but its not Lurret.

Why yall hate Flutter Rain man (not that good in retrospect)

It's legit just 2, the meta isn't in a particular need of practically a vanilla mon in disguise like the incident, maybe if it did something more of note it'd be considerable given the competition it had this slate, although I'm aware it technically had a niche, but a rather minor one either way IMO.

Anyways, this new voting was never announced beforehand here, so it seems rather inappropiate for the process this was taken as I wasn't given even a chance to vote, more importantly...

- I still think that this may be slightly weak, being immune to punching moves is also quite useless beyond having a good match-up with , still a good sub in any case.

How will these changes affect the metagame? Discuss below!

 

[Jrdyop :)]

Lashi was already on a steady decline through the VR as is but this is his nail in the coffin. Rest in peace my glorious child. No roost, no toxic, and no Defog. Only Band exists now.

 

[Bobsican]

Okay, now this is just a shitmon, please evolve it to Aggram, maybe even free the mega too TBH.

This is a brokemon now, huh? Only time will tell if it really needs a rework, although it's fairly likely.

Sludge Wave isn't that big on it, it should generally use Sludge Bomb anyways as the poisoning chance is far higher and is better than the slightly higher damage output, as much Scald is often used over Surf even on offensive mons.

It sure is a shame doesn't get Temper Flare too, but at least now this has more viability.

Meteor Beam is also a bit too overrated judging by the constant bolding of it, non-STAB Meteor Beam is mid and over half of the remotely viable users are weak to Stealth Rock too, works better as a sweeper of this sort TBH.

 

[Orangesodapop]

this is just gen 7 Tapu Lele noting to worry about here

 

[G-Luke]

Lelecuno sounds GIGA broken

 

[DenebStargazer]

i would like to congratulate lashiram on becoming the worst mon in the format

 

[Mystora]

Is this still open? If not, if and/or when will it happen again?
