Triphinx and a lot of its fusions are pretty awesome looking.

Fungogh is probably overpowered, but it is also pretty fun and unique.

Only if you manage to get a Glitter bootleg, and even then the turn investment is questionable from a value standpoint. It's a fun gimmick, but I doubt it's much more than that.

Camoflage moves give the user a coating and is auto-used for no cost at the start of combat, so a turn one (or even turn zero) Paint Swipe becomes possible. Being able to control the type of your opponent is really good; it messes with STAB and allows you to exploit type advantages on targets you otherwise couldn't. Fungogh's (and Brushroom's) ability to change the type of opponents (and even archangels) makes it really easy to put yourself in an advantaged state. It's even used for a few Turn One Kills and Turn Zero Kills.

Pretty much all speedruns use the brushroom/Fungogh + glass camo + custom starter + paintswipe + second wind type tape for resonance. Resonance in general is surprisingly easy to setup, you would think the archangels would be immune to it, but apparently not.

As for favorite beasts, love the starter designs (Bansheep and Candevil).

Okay, but for actual personal favorites, I'm a Capricorpse fan. I'm usually a big attack over defense guy, but Capricorpse is just incredibly hard to kill. It also has access to Berserker, which works incredibly well with Shear Luck.

On the opposite end of the spectrum, least favorites? Glaistain. The glass type sucks and Glaistain doesn't have the survivability to make it past turn two.

I've been running Arkidd with a charge and battery combo + echolocation + custom start with gambit. almost everything dies to the first battery crits.

Gumbaal, that tin demon is an Ace tank/support who also has a fun design

Oh wow, that's pretty wacky. And basically just a faster version of Captain Codey's rematch team (which uses Glitter Bomb for pretty much the same purpose). Also, remember that STAB doesn't actually exist.

I'm pretty sure a STAB effect actually exists in the game, it's just that nothing mentions it in. The wiki page regarding damage says that there is a 1.2x STAB multiplier, so attacks do 20% more damage if the user shares a type with the attack. The only way you'd be able to find out about this is to pay attention to damage numbers, but it's pretty easy to miss with everything else that modifies damage.

I'm 50/50 between Ramtasm and Tokusect. It's hard to choose specifically between flexible brawler bug stopping evildoers with flaming fists of justice and the ghost sheep god that balances strength, toughness, and support abilities well enough to basically always be my ace in the hole.

In terms of design I'm stuck between Binterloper, Southpaw and Aeroboros as my favourite.

When it comes to usage, I've definitely enjoyed using Robindam a lot, spring-loaded has been so useful and Plastic is a surprisingly good defensive typing since it only takes a debuff from Earth moves and getting turned into Poison also isn't at all a problem (even if burn follows after) so even if Fire coverage is present it's done pretty well.

Mine right now is Gearyu. It looks neat, and I got a phenomenal setup with some uncommon stickers I found. Echolocation, Custom Starter > Multi Shot that has a 21% added crit rate for each empty slot, Critical Mass > Gear Sheer that has a 37% crit rate, and he enjoys chaining Gear Sheer after Gear Sheer until things are gone. I spent all my pulp to get the Custom Starter stickers and I've been very impressed at how it just one rounds archangels I come across, lol.

After that it's Southpaw and Spitzfyre. The dogs are super adorable.
