I didn't rank it higher because I haven't actually used it myself, just seen people using it. Raka_Putra: How to enable Windows 10's 'Hey Kartana' voice commands \| PCWorld Luster Soldier: 181 ATTACK? AND WITH SWORDS DANCE? I remember the overreactions from a lot of people when Kartana's stats and movepool were revealed from a pre-release full game leak. While this looks impressive, it ends up not being as strong as it seems. Kartana is limited by the fact Grass/Steel is a rather poor STAB combo that's resisted by a lot of Pokemon. It also doesn't have access to any moves (ignoring Z-Moves) stronger than 90 power, which means even coverage moves don't really do as much damage as you might expect with that base 181 attack. The use of Swords Dance to make up for these deficiencies sounds like an appealing option, but setting up a Swords Dance is tough because of the poor Special Defense. It's also extremely easy to KO with Fire moves. swordz9: Origami Pokemon? Brayze_II: yikes Cybat: I can't really come to terms with the Ultra Beasts, they are just too weird to the point where I have most of them clumped up in the middle of my rankings here. This one might be the weirdest; a one foot tall paper samurai? ctes: Kartana's design is kinda lame really. It's cool, but for an Ultra Beast / legendary, it kinda sucks. Compared to some of the others, its design is just not as great. I do like its stat distribution though, it gets an average placement. Inviso: Cool design and relatively unique typing, but still, too many legendaries. Too damn many. Paratroopa1: I wasn't really feeling this dude at first but then he folded up like paper when he died and I was like SOLD Ermine: All of the Ultra Beasts are terrible and a complete waste of space, except for MAYBE Necrozma. mnkboy907: Origami Pokemon wasn't something I expected, and now that's it's here... well okay. StifledSilence: Shouldn't Master Chief be the one to catch you? Drakeryn: (11:38:10 PM) Lopen: You're one of those modern art people aren't you (11:38:19 PM) SirChris: I may be (11:38:20 PM) Lopen: LOOK HERE ARE SOME SQUARES (11:38:22 PM) Lopen: ON PAPER (11:38:26 PM) Lopen: LOOK AT THE PASSION OF THE ARTIST PrinceKaro: There do not exist words to explain the design of some of these ultra beasts.
