    Fun fact: Shedinja also has 45 defense (not that it matters lol) like Ninjask, and added together they make 90 like Nincada. So you could assume Ninjask lost 45 defense specifically because of losing its former shell, Shedinja

    I think we interpret speed too literally, in battle speed determines who attacks first but that's really not about speed but reactivity. I can easily see a Pokemon being given an intentionally low speed stat to make it more reactive as opposed to being proactive

    Nincada, after evolving, splits in body and armor; armor turns into shedinja, and body turns into ninjask. That’s why ninjask and shedinja both have 1/2 of Nincada’s defense.

    The earth crab thing looks to only have a small layer of clay, and a lot of loam/soil. Clay is the hard stuff. That's the stuff that gives you trouble while digging. Loam/soil is relatively easy to move through.
    But have you ever tried to dig through a tree root? Now that's a challenge. Get out your hatchet. Maybe Leafeon is a tree root with leaves on it.

      I consider it the time it takes for an attack to happen after it knows the order. Vikavolt, for example, is based on a railgun, and as such would take a while to charge its attacks, whereas purugly is a cat that is far more capable of quickly pulling off an attack as soon as it knows what to do. Sorry if this is what your comment meant, but I assume you're talking about the time taken between the trainer giving the order and the Pokémon registering it.

    When I first had a Vikavolt in Pokémon Sun, I thought it would out-speed everything. Somehow I hadn’t noticed until someone pointed it out because it looks like it would have at least base 110 speed. But nope!! It’s one of the slowest Pokémon I’ve had.

      Fun fact. Shedinja and Ninjask combined to equal Nincada's defense stat. The bug inside the shell combined with the shell is equal to the bug that had the shell still on, defensively. Also interesting enough... their base hp stats combine to exactly double Nincada's.

    The speed stat really seems to be more attack speed rather than physical movement speed. Vikavolt is partially based on a railgun, which I'm fairly sure load and fire pretty slowly. Purugly is a cat, and cat reflexes tend to be rather good.

      You find yourself on the ground, in the middle of a dark forest. You have no memory of any past events, not that it matters. You realize that there are no stars in the night sky, nor moon. You get up and brush yourself off, heart beating faster than a purugly. All of a sudden you hear heavy footsteps nearing towards you. That fast heart beat disappears in a millisecond, and you freeze. You get back on the ground, hoping it'll hide you from this... Creature. Clearly you aren't thinking straight. A long, snake light creature appears from the shadows. It appears to have horns and blood red eyes. It is... 6 FEET TALL?! You hope it can't hear your pounding heart, although you already know it does. It approaches you. Those horns were just ears, and it was a giant ferret! You sigh in relief, and feel better until you see what's in this creature's hands. It raises it's weapon, and your scream cuts sharper than the axe going through your body.

    Another surprising stat worth mentioning.
    Scyther STILL has 500 base stat total when it evolves into Scizor. It doesn't get more HP, Special Attack and Special Defense upon evolving, it just looses 40 Base Speed and gets plus 20 Base Attack and Defense. This stat swap might have made sense for a branched evolution line, where one would be faster and the other would be bulkier and hits harder, but it doesn't make sense for a straight evolution chain, Scizor should have been stronger. For all I know this is the only Pokemon that is just as strong as it's evolved form. Its stupid, it's sad and I hate it, Scizor being one of my favorite Pokemon :(
