Assuming Shedinja's in the game, and that terastalizing works that way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use the Falchion Posted August 5, 2022 Report Share Posted August 5, 2022 My first thought when I heard about the three storylines and the school path was "okay, so Pokemon is now just pulling a Fire Emblem Three Houses. Cool, I can get behind that." AND I SHALL! If I didn't always try to model the player character on myself, I'd be tempted to make the character have blue hair and call them Byleth and go the whole nine yards. (Or Dimitri. Or Claude. Or Edelgard.) Still, this looks like it'll be a fun game. I'm not sure if one or all of the stories will reach the heights of PLA, but I'm hoping it does. Not sure how to feel about the Terastlize thing, partucalry since I've been hearing rumors about past/future versions of Pokemon and would rather see that, but every game has its new gimmick 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frustration Posted October 12, 2022 Report Share Posted October 12, 2022 I was thinking about Baton pass and I think I've found a way to balance it. If baton pass is used by a pokemon with no stat changes it functions as normal. If there are stat changes it becomes a 2 turn move, that switches on the second turn. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would certainly be interesting to play around with. Would it work with Power Herb? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it work with Power Herb? I think it would be fine if it did. It allows for some additional utility, while still having downsides. As well as being crippled by knock off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NameIess Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 (edited) Question: Do you guys think baton pass will pass Terrastalization? Probably not, but it would be pretty insane if it did. Edited October 13, 2022 by Nameless 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Unless Game Freak decides to make Terrastalizing passable and then competitive pokemon decides to give baton pass one more chance, only allowing Terrastal passing.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frustration Posted October 24, 2022 Report Share Posted October 24, 2022 (edited) So I was doing more thinking on Terastalization and this completely changes everything. Tera-Ghost boosted Calirex-Shadow is going to make normal types, or at least terastal normal types almost mandatory. And it has almost no drawbacks, dropping down to a normal ghost and dark weakness, especially since psychic is so weak defensively. Tera-pshycic Deoxys Attack under Physics terrain with life orb would be similarly nuclear. But Blissey presents a different array of possibilities. Steel has a length of useful resistances increasing Blissey's already insane bulk, while also resisting stealth rock, being immune to toxic spikes and sandstorm to boot, But Dark allows it to check Calirex-Shadow and DoA. Water, ground and flying all have useful resistances as well. Edited October 24, 2022 by Frustration 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Storming Stormfather Posted November 22, 2022 Report Share Posted November 22, 2022 What are y'alls thoughts on the Houndstone and Flutter Mane bans?

I haven't been able to catch up with Competitive yet, I've been busy with NaNoWriMo, I'll try and look into it soon. @Ookla the Craw I've looked into it, I mostly agree Edited November 28, 2022 by Ookla the Frustrated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frustration Posted January 5, 2023 Report Share Posted January 5, 2023 I like that they nerfed Intrepid sword, even for me that was broken, but Dauntless Shield did not deserve the same treatment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a little sad that goldfish was banned but it was broken as heck and I completely agree that it needed to go, Annihilape was a Pokemon I never personally struggled with due to most of my teams including a banded Meowscarada and Cyclizar should have been suspected IMO. I also haven't played OU in like a month so IDK the meta or the real context behind most everything is something I probobaly missed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frustration Posted February 28, 2023 Report Share Posted February 28, 2023 So, paradox legendaries. I'm not sure how to feel about this, on the one hand, they look awesome, but on the other hand it feels like they are determined to prove legendaries aren't one of a kind, unless they just changed a ton over the years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
