[SET COMMENTS]

Articuno works as a Specially Defensive Pivot that can Wall Pokémon Such as Masquerain, Glaceon and Lilligant and Retaliate Back with a Brave Bird / Hurricane, She keeps herself alive With Roost and can U-turn out to A Pokémon that Doesn't Fear Rock type Moves Such as Perserrker and Gabite, Freeze-Dry's Ability to Deal Super-Effective Damage to Water type Makes It a Must-Use Move On Articuno Since It Is able to Hit Pokémon Such as Whiscash, Golduck, Basculin and ETC, And like Said U-turn Is used to Pivot Into a Rock-Resisting Pokemon or a Fire Resisting Mon Such as Perserrker and Whiscash, Articuno can Tera Into Water to not Take much Damage from Iron Head or Fire Blast, It can also Terastallize Into Steel to Resist Rock-Type Moves just for a Return for a Weakness to fighting type Moves, And Heavy-Duty Boots are to Not Take Damage from Stealth Rock when trying to Switch Into Articuno Safely, These are good Traits but Not everything Is Great for Articuno as She can be Tera-Reliant sometimes and Giving her a 2x Weakness to Grass, Making her more Weak To Gogoat, And even If you waste your Tera on Something else Your Articuno Will Stay Weak to Rock type Moves, Being a Victim to Tauro's Rock Slide, Carbink's Power gem, Gogoat's Rock Slide and many More, Articuno also gets put on a Timer by Toxic, And Damaging It helps Articuno get Worn Down more.

Hey,

None of the Pokemon that dropped to PU in July, including Articuno, are available for reservation as of now. As rien said in his reply to you, we'll be adding the new Pokemon to be reserved after the upcoming VR update. I'll be locking and moving this thread, but the enthusiasm is certainly appreciated. Feel free to request any of the Pokemon listed under "unreserved" here if you want :)
