why do the horses get faster when Calyrex rides on them
I know this is Pokemon but I still ask these questions

if they are forced to sack then you get +1 which means all defensive answers are gone with a bulky mon who won't be 1 shot from ou mons
tbh it was just me listing stuff
rip in dlc
Man everyone in this thread is so damn angry lol
Bra, if you are running a defensive spread, as this thing doesn't get a deffensive ability like mandibuzz does in overcoat which would help it to avoid chip damage, and you are also not running nasty plot, you are probably better with foul play or knock off. And guess what, I'm doubting they are giving it those moves. Its GF after all.
Ok now there's something I've just thought that could make Ice Horse decent and justify its stats
Maybe its signature move has +1 Priority, being a jousting move and all.

These are serious matters.
Everybody’s complaining like we won’t get confirmation in less than 4 hours
Man, Ice types just can't ever catch a break lmao.. when was the last good (OU material) Ice type? Kyurem black?
Like bad enough ice types have some of the worst defensive typing in the game, they have to have the worst stat distribution lmao.
DHR Edit: last bit was totally unnecessary

Bro, remember Wulfric from XY? Motherfucker literally says "everyone says Ice sucks and that I should become a Water-type GL and I agree, but I stay Ice because I'm stubborn".
They know.
I've accepted the reality I'm prepared to see where the meta goes from here
Aside from again neglecting to include the ability(which boosts its power) when talking about Eleki, I'd say that your final statement isn't a bad thing. We wouldn't want this mon to be so good as to be uber, after all. I'd prefer a decent, if almost impossibly fast, mon than another sacrifice to the uber(or OUBL most likely) tier.
Why y'all complaining about ice types
GDarm is still banned from OU bc its too dumb, while things like Cinderace, Melmetal and Blaziken will be retested

Sounds about right
If you are saying this mon is comparable to Genesect pressence regarding what we know, after including its ability, please confirm it so I can know what we have in our hands.
If it's any reassurance, this guy will probs be datamining soon.
the calyrex forms are banned, which makes sense since they have the same base stat total as the most box legendaries like reshiram, xerneas etc.
What I'm saying is that I don't want to to be close to Genesect in power. Always sucks when a mon is booted out of OU and it's not a major legendary. I'm also saying you keep writing it off.
I want Shadow Rider to start in OU just for the Day 1 madness
I don't want neither.
Why would it be nowhere near Genesect in terms of raw power of functionality? This is what makes no sense. Why Genesect? What has to do a random, hyper-fast pure electric type mon with 100 100 offensive stats (that reminds me of Deoxys-A above all things except for its incapability to set up hazards) with Genesect of all mons? Just because someone compared both lol
I can't believe I somehow overestimated its speed, lol
You'd think they'd have caught on by now that slow bulky ice types are a meme that never work
So any idea why we are believing any of these stats spreads as true? ive seen like 3 variations in like 12 hours.

awesome gaming
They aren't. Centro leaks is a hack fraud
