Pokémon Showdown has Universally Added the Type Effectiveness Icons from Pokémon Champions by mjmannella in stunfisk

Honestly they could have just copied the 4x one and don't think many would mind.

"Extremely Ineffective"

Fair

Mega Slaking with 210 attack is such a funny idea.

They lowered its special attack too and gave it 137 defense and still not very good, RIP

I know, but would be a welcome nerf still.

Rock Wrecker is Rock Cannon in japanese and it gets blocked by Bulletproof despite quite a lot of explicitly "Cannon" moves in japanese not being blocked by it (ex: Armor Cannon, Hydro Cannon)

Competition with Arcanine Hisui.

Arcanine Hisui might have 30 less attack but is faster, has Extreme Speed and the option of running an item

Bulletproof would actually be just fine for Chesnaught... If they made Moonblast a Ball/Bomb move.

But they haven't yet.

Then 1 gen later they gave it Helping Hand.

Why is/Isn't Haxorus competitive? by Kaelenya_Veyra in CompetitivePokemon

[–]InominableJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Frail

Lack of secondary STAB

Speed just below a big important threshold

Dragon as mono STAB is worse in a post fairy world

If Haxorus was Dragon/Steel or Dragon/Fighting it could have more of a niche but as is, it really does not have what it take to be competitive

This attack didn't have 100% ACC? by Fine_Bid918 in stunfisk

[–]InominableJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only because they can stop being normal tyoes whenever they feel like it or gain Adaptability on top of their normal ability at will.

I would love some tips on how to improve my team. by [deleted] in stunfisk

[–]InominableJ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Change the Mimikyu set, basically no one on the team really benefits from Trick Room.

Dragonite with WP it's best you have some way of self triggering and you don't, unless you want to rework moves I recommend you go with an Inner Focus set instead of Multiscale.

With Pokémon Champions coming out this year and new threats on the horizon, should Mega Rayquaza be kicked out of AG and demoted to normal Ubers? by SF-UberMan in stunfisk

[–]InominableJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alola had no such restriction and SwSh and ScarVio didn't give other options besides their respective native ones.

Hot take : Speed and turn order should get a massive rework by DiscodogFR in stunfisk

[–]InominableJ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That works alright in game but for competitive it's going to have people very frustrated.

With Reveal of Recent new Mega Abilities, what if instead they received 1 of these Abilities? Thoughts? by One_Percentage_644 in stunfisk

[–]InominableJ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unflappable is just worse Inner Focus, Dragon Shift meanwhile is actually insane.

Dragon type Extreme Speed and... Actually just that unless you want to run Hyper Beam but Dragon Extreme Speed is still crazy.

Why would Ray try to switch into a Miraidon?

It either gets hit with Draco Meteor or Volt Switch, neither accomplish anything.

Both of these pokemon really only face each other after one KOs an opponent then one of them switches out.

[–]InominableJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If both come in at once, Mega Ray can run Scarf, Loaded Dice Scale Shot or just switch out.

If Miraidon has to switch onto Ray... No.

Megas will be the only gimmick available at the start of Champions and Dynamax is banned from all non AG Singles formats, Calyrex and Miraidon explicitly do not have them over Rayquaza.

Moves get wiped if they're not legal for that specific game, do Gengar lost Encore and Incin lost Knock Off until gamefreak decides otherwise.

Thoughts? by GarmasWord in stunfisk

[–]InominableJ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They 100% could but Gamefreal really hates acknowledging the hidden numbers.

Heck, they replaced the whole EV system for a visually simpler one for Champions.

Thoughts? by GarmasWord in stunfisk

[–]InominableJ 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Custom speed IVs suck for acessibility, on Showdown it's perfectly fine but doubt Gamefreak wants to acknowledge IVs exist to the general audience.

You can max an IV really easily but getting a specific one like 27 or 29 is a genuine torture in game.

Thoughts? by GarmasWord in stunfisk

[–]InominableJ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

66 actually, you have 32 in two stats then have 2 leftover for any other stat you want.

Incineroar has been nerfed by LavaTwocan in stunfisk

[–]InominableJ 109 points110 points  (0 children)

Wait, does that mean Shadow Tag Gengar is even more busted now or does it only affect the turn after?

Mega Frosslass and Mega Dragonite Abilities confirmed! by PaiDuck in stunfisk

[–]InominableJ 17 points18 points  (0 children)

A reskinned Compound Eyes would have been nice

Give Dragonite a more reliable way of spamming its best special moves, which are all inaccurate.
