No. 676: Furfrou

wouldn't be France without a poodle

but this one is kinda shabby-looking, ain't it? what gives? ohohoho dear reader, if you thought thusly then you are now in for a surprise. a surprise for your eyes.

That's right, you can style it up! The stats never change, but I think we can all admit this is a pretty fun gimmick. they come in three rough groups, from what I can tell:

Heart, Star, and Diamond are all fairly generic, but acceptable for what a poodle should look like.

Purple and Cream are like wearing cool hats, but the tie on Green makes me very happy. classy top hat, too.

Light Blue is lame again, but Red and Dark Blue are both pretty sweet. The latter is my favorite, it looks like a pharaoh. If I had a dog, I'd want him to look like a pharaoh, too. Now, if Furfrou was anything but Normal, I might actually use it...


Overall:  7/10

    1. he still lacks a decent recovery move outside Rest, while Fur Coat is pretty good, furfrou only being normal type really doesn't help it being a good wall, 75/60/90 isn't great and won't really hold out against fighting types despite the ability and with low atk and sp.atk it isn't able to wear down the opponent either
      he has potential though with having decent moves like toxic, thunder wave, cotton guard, baby doll eyes, protect, sleep talk, u-turn and roar (roar loses its negative priority when used through sleep talk) and a good speed stat

  3. I hate how the style goes away if you put it in the box... even the Battle Box
