Cubone has an unfortunate life cycle. Shortly after birth, its mother inevitably dies. The reason for this is unknown.

Cubone grows up alone, lacking a mother it will never see again. After its mother's cadaver is decomposed enough, Cubone takes her skull bone and wears it over its head as a sort of helmet. It never removes the helmet again, so that its true face remains unknown to the world. This may be an effort on Cubone's part to feel its mother closer to it, but it seems to have little success. In later life, Cubone constantly pines for its mother, often having bouts of depression, sorrow and loneliness. It is said to cry at the full moon because it sees a likeness of its mother in it. A Cubone's crying voice echoes around the skull helmet and comes out as a plaintive and mournful echo.


;-;

Too bad Cubone sucks otherwise he'd be my 2nd fave.

Diz, have you ever found the Heavy Club? It's like a 5% chance that Cubone/Marowak has one but it doubles Cubone's and Marowak's attack power. So like 80 to 160 http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

If you find one with a heavy club, clone it and give it to me.

They'd be pretty own if they could learn curse too.

True.... I just figured out Bone Rush > Bonemerang.

Bonemerang: 90% accuracy, 100 damage, 150 with the STAB.

Bone Rush: 80% accuracy, 25 damage per hit. Up to 5. At first, it's kinda EWWW but think.... STAB modifier adds 12.5, so 37.5 each strike. Let's say you fuck up . . . Two hits. 75. That sucks but look at 3 hits. 112.5. 4 hits. 150. All five? 187.5

Damn good if you use Swords Dance.

I remember reading this before, my thought: what an emo, he knew his mother for a few moments, and mourned his whole life. For all he knew she could have live to be a horrable mother that beat her child http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

I thought that was pretty emo too. Much moreso than any of us at PSOW.

the mother dies after seeing how ugly it's child's face is. this is the real reason cubone hides it's face behind the mask.

(Rock Head)
Bonemerang/Earthquake
Rockslide
Aerial Ace
Double Edge

Combined with a BPer Marowak could potentially be the most powerful sweeper ever. When equipped with Thick Club his attack power will go so high it actually RESETS after a 3rd Swords Dance ;o

Or if you're too good for a Baton Passer you could switch out Double Edge for Swords Dance. <.<
