Thread 58083131

You can only take one into Singles OU, which do you pick?

Regice really got the short end of the stick compared to Registeel and Regirock

>>58083131 (OP)
Everytime I'm forced to see this image all I can think is that the person that made this unironically thought these designs are like... comparable to the regis.

I feel like 3 of them are salvageable at best.

the water one

>>58083131 (OP)
For me? It's Regihive

>>58083158
Yeah, Fighting and Grass are decent, none of the rest work. They're not fucking golems.

>>58083131 (OP)
Water gets banned from OU in a day. Surging Strikes, 80 Attack, 150 Speed, Water Bubble is just completely broken.
Fairy is the only other one worth using in OU, maybe Poison.

>>58084173
I'd say, ground, grass, water, and bug are fairly convincing Regi designs (Bug looks legitimately good), the rest are either too detailed or too abstract with their element. Or both.

While I like both Eleki and Drago, they've definitely opened the door to the idea of Regis being not exactly purely elemental, but "golem" like containers for elements, which is a great idea but many seem to not do it right.

Then again, Steel and Gigas where fairly abstract, too; Registeel could've been pure liquid mercury or blocks of metal, but instead is basically a robot, and Regigigas is.... just some giant thing.

god I love the Regis

oh shit, to answer the OP, Regice, refrigerate tri-attack sounds cool.
I would pic Regibug for technician twinneedle fuckery but that stat spread is pure jenkem.

>>58084188
Flying isn't as broken as Water, but it also has 150 speed with an almost 170BP stab flying move.
Fire one is incredibly bulky, with a ground immunity, and hits extremely hard.
And I could see Fighting being broken, especially with Tera to help you set up and/or sweep.

>>58083131 (OP)
I can't believe how hard people fucking miss the point that these ancient golems were supposed to represent ages (ice age, iron age, stone age) and instead every time there's some kind of elemental variance of a pokemon, autists need it to have a variant of every type

>>58084241
Ah yes, the dragon age

>>58083158
>>58084173
they're cool as hell and if you dislike how they break pre-conceived patterns then you are autistic

Back to UU you go regishit

>>58083131 (OP)
Regioak is unkillable. Someone run the numbers. Leech Horn or Giga Drain, its healing every turn first with defenses that make evolite Chansey blush.

>>58084363
Palafin is banned too

>>58084354
True

>>58084332
Or like the age of Myth

>>58084346
So you're saying that if druddigon was an dragon type eeveelution that anyone who complained is autistic? Regigigas and the two new ones did a good job of fitting in with the originals, sorry for thinking that only about 3 of those designs resemble a regi design and not a magic the gathering card.

3 words: Ice Type Explosion

Regiflex is too good

>>58086290
Imagine if it had thunder punch and ice punch with life orb on top of sheer force with that 200 attack power.

>>58083131 (OP)
There's a reason the original Regis are all defensive and Regieleki has the huge downside of only having Electric attacks. Offensive stats with the Regi stat distribution is way too fucking strong.

>>58087477
all regis have shit move distribution outside of their element. Its kinda their thing.

Regiflex would probably have close combat and Drain Punch but would struggle for ghost coverage

>>58087477
>defensive stats

>>58087590
100 is nothing these days. The regi designs in OP have 150 or 200 attacking stats on top of high speed.

Having 200 points in one singular stat is a fucking waste

>>58083131 (OP)
Regifairy ez

>>58083131 (OP)
Many of these are insanely busted

It kind of makes me appreciate how "bad" the existing Regis are, despite their "minmaxed' stats.

Dracovish and Palafin kneel.

>>58088124
Bold of you to assume Tera will still be a thing in the future.

>>58088037
Granted on shit Regi move pools are I don't see any of them being so broken they go to ubers

>>58085041
those DO look like Regis. Druddigon doesn't look like an Eeveelution
