swordz9: Really like the colorful and elegant design

Paratroopa1: holy shit, lurantis is the best fucking thing ever? move over scyther this is the new best mantis thing. look at those striped pants and that sassy pose. it kicks ass. it absolutely kills me that I couldn't rank lurantis #1 you really have no idea

PrinceKaro: Like ribombee, a good lesson in how to design a bug type. Oh wait, it isn't a bug type? Damn you gamefreak, DAMN YOU! Why wouldn't you make a fucking praying mantis a BUG TYPE?

Luster Soldier: This cute and feminine looking Grass type had such a cool design that I considered this Pokemon as a possible member of my in-game team, but an early leak of the full game revealed that it had a horrible stat distribution (very low speed). So this Pokemon got removed from any consideration for my in-game team. Even worse was the hidden ability, which turned out to be Contrary. This has led to Lurantis being used more as a special attacker with Leaf Storm despite the physical attack being higher than the special attack, since it has no physical moves that can take advantage of Contrary. And with its slow speed, it's also heavily outclassed by Serperior who has much better speed.

Brayze_II: this one is nothing but trouble

Cybat: Gains points for a cool name and very tough Totem battle, loses points because someone pointed out its goofy candy cane pants and now I can't unsee them.

Raka_Putra: The Totem ver. approaching the player character was excellent thrill, scarier than anything in Paranormal Activity

ctes: Lurantis looks decent enough, but it's not too good. Having physical Solar Beam as your signature move is cool, but outside of harsh sunlight, it's nothing too great. It's speed tier is ass and it feels completely outclassed by Tsareena, perhaps only having a slightly better design.

mnkboy907: I couldn't unsee the bacon pants, and honestly now that detracts from it, lol. Oops! My first Gen VII shiny.

Inviso: Candy striper is pretty cool, but again, generic grass types have to really EARN my respect, which this did not.

StifledSilence: John Lurantis
