Grapploct is my 38th favourite Pokemon of all time! A pleasing and striking colour palette, a great design and aesthetic all around. Love it when fighting types are animals and not weird looking people (Crabrawler is my 41st favourite Pokemon coincidentally!) It could be part water type, but on the other hand, the water type is kinda bloated. I admit it, I'm very frontloaded by design with my ranking. Cool, slippery, and badass all around.

I'm not one who usually cares about competitive gameplay, hell, I used Wormadam once, but man, the typing on Frosmoth kind of blows. Though apparently gen 9 made it better? Well, as I mentioned with Ursaluna I'm mostly blind to the DLC lol Besides that, it's fine. It's got a decent design, but it doesn't have any traits that stand out to me. Venomoth is my favourite colour (on days when it isn't pink) and Volcarona has one of the greatest designs of all Pokemon - of which I'm glad Slither Wing didn't fuck with too much (in fact, it would place high in my gen 9 ranks), but Frosmoth is just ... it's nice. It's fine.

Inteleon has an amazing concept but woof, I wish it wasn't so .... lanky? I really can't stand this guy's silhouette and proportions. It's weird, I'm definitely not one of those anti anthro people (Incineroar is incredibly high on my personal ranking, for example!) but this just doesn't do it for me. G-Max and Snipe Shot are definite highlights, so maybe if I used this guy it would fare better.

Sobble is so cute! I placed Scorbunny higher, but I remember being taken by this guy immediately. It was difficult to choose between the two for a while (sorry Grookey), but rabbits are my favourite. Sorry Sobble, don't cry!

Drakloak is an excellent bridge between two good Pokemon! This line is just plain solid across the board imo. I'll definitely have more to say when Dragapult gets revealed.

As for the Pokemon I have left: 1, 4, 5, 8, 11, 20, 28, 25, 30, 32 ... this seems fine? My number 1-8 are all in my top 100, and both 11 and 20 are very close to that threshold. 11 especially. Like I feel like I need to redo my ranking, that's how unsure I am lol. The other four are fine. Being in the upper third is good by me.
