New Legendary Musketeer: Keldeo

[Brodogs]

Following in the footsteps of Wolf Sage's thread, I was hoping to promote some discussion on Keldeo, the new Water/Fighting Legendary Musketeer (joining Cobalion, Virizion and Terrakion).
Anyone had a chance to test him out? Against my team (give some feedback on my RMT if you can please!) I've found his special sets have significant trouble against common special wall Jellicent, though I can't really comment for physical sets as I haven't seen any. Also, what's your opinion on his general design and his role outside of competitive play?

I like Keldeo.

Maybe that's because I like water-types, or maybe it's because I went through a big horse phase a few years ago. I don't know.

It's offensive stats are nice, it can be quite the special sweeper. I don't have him...Because I don't live in Japan.

I honestly don't care for Keldeo, but it seems to be an interesting Pokémon. At first glance, I thought it was something from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, but I was clearly wrong. Although, there doesn't seem to be much of a difference between it's Original form and it's Resolute form, which kind of disappoints me. It stats aren't half bad either.

I really want to try out Keldeo and its special moves and combos! It's awesome how Keldeo is the second Water/Fighting Type Pokémon with Poliwrath being the first!

Keldeo is actually pretty decent. I have my own Keldeo from the recent movie event in Japan, and it's got a great nature too. I see lots of potential as a special sweeper, though maybe outshined by other Pokemon in the tier (speaking OU, most certainly not fit for ubers).

How did you get Keldeo from Japan? Unless you got from the GTS then that explains it but other than that, I'm pretty jealous of you! ^^

There was an event...That's probably how he got it.

Keldeo was the pokemon that I got yesterday from that promotion. I've used him a bit and he's alright to me. I will probably be developing him through my in-game run.
