in the photo club. straight up "xurking it". and by "it", haha, well. let's just say. My tree
-
The most fun thing about UB stat spreads is that they are entirely composed of prime numbers. It's a very clever way of keeping with the alien thematic on the part of GameFreak.
-
"When I played these games as a middle schooler" oh my god I'm so old
-
Guzzlord may suck, but it can vent that frustration by screaming in the Pokémon Sun and Moon Japanese dub. So yknow it’s got that. Yelling.
-
Stakataka Blissey is the one fusion I hope will never see the light of day
-
Gen 7: Haha, look at these ridiculous over the top min-max stats, these are so silly aren’t they? Gen 9: …Ah.
-
Ultra Beasts are SOO funny in how they are designed, they do truly feel alien in their design compared to other pokemon.
-
I remember when Ultra Beast were first revealed, people didn’t even believe they were Pokémon. They looked so out there, so against every design principle in Pokémon that we thought they had to be boss fights or something. When they actually had stats and moves people were shocked.
-
I fucking love their visual design though, Gamefreak went crazy with it
-
ah yes, we have: • evil jellyfish • pokey pokey • the wall • 🤡 • visually stronk bug • competitively stronk bug • literally just a clump of wires, like that's it • le om nom nom • some bamboo rocket thing, i guess? • ferrothorn part 2: attack edition

Xurkitree is by far the funniest pokemon in existence. It’s like if you took rampardos software and ran it on Regieleki hardware. He’s probably the most goofy sinister pokemon in existence and he should get access to quiver dance
-
The idea of alien Pokemon from other dimensions is just dope. I also love the UB classifications for some reason (I honestly call them by those more than their actual names)
-
I believe that one reason the ultra beasts have such crazy stats is because the base stats are all prime numbers. So that leaves less flexible wiggle room for “balancing”
-
btw this is probably the longest these videos are going to get. its getting out of hand LOL
-
I recently saw it pointed out that Sun and Moon often deal with the idea of invasive species, and Ultra Beasts are the logical endpoint of that theme. Made me appreciate them a lot more.

Hearing you say you played SuMo in middle school dealt 9999 psychic damage. They came out the year i graduated HS
-
I'm not that old but hearing you say you were a middle schooler for Sun/moon made me feel a kink in my back
-
One of my favorite add campaigns ever is the analog horror like series of Pokemon go ads about ultra beasts sightings Highly reccomend checking them out
-
I find it funny how Nihilego is a Rock/Poison type ultra beast that doesn't really look like a Rock type and only sorta like a poison type but not that much, and then gen 9 released glimmora who looks even more like an ultra beast, even less like a rock type, and even more sorta like a poison type but not that much, and glimmora is just better than it
-
My favorite example of how minmaxed Ultra Beast stats are is how Kartana would run 0 attack timid nature in Gen 7 VGC just to get the Speed Beast Boost. The attack drop wouldn’t even matter since it has 181 attack and it could just swords dance back up to compensate
