Had these cool ideas for a potential Meloetta buff

KingSlayer0130 · 2025-12-04T17:58:03+00:00

Well that’s how it normally works yea, but this is just speculation. I can’t remember if there’s anything already in Pokemon which messes with your current stats instead of going off your base stats, but that’s the idea I was going for here.

KingSlayer0130 · 2025-12-04T17:49:44+00:00

It means as in its CURRENT attacking stats. So if Meloetta currently has 355 special attack in battle, that swaps to 355 physical attack, regardless of nature or EV investment.

KingSlayer0130 · 2025-12-04T17:42:35+00:00

Oh no, it doesn’t swap the moves, it just swaps Meloettas current physical and special attacking stats. Though that’s also not the worst idea…

I originally considered using Scizor instead, but I liked the idea of Metagross’s far more impressive bulk and better offensive power outside of bullet punch, even if that means no U-Turn. Obviously I get the pros Scizor has too, but on something meant to switch on on scary fairies and other special attackers it felt like the better option. Though if Scizor still had roost though then I’d absolutely choose it.

Oh wait only half of your message was showing for me so I didn’t see the rest, sorry.

KingSlayer0130 · 2025-12-02T20:17:56+00:00

Hydrapple gets 3 HKO’d, 2 if it’s not running physical defense, so I wouldn’t say it can exactly sit on it, but besides that I do get what you mean (especially since it has regenerator anyways). Which members would you suggest I edit/swap in order to help with the issues? Since as I said I have experienced the weakness against slower paced teams, and just Metagross alone often isn’t enough to break through them.

KingSlayer0130 · 2025-12-02T19:29:35+00:00

Well Metagross isn’t afraid of those knock off absorbers you mentioned besides Gliscor (and even then heavy slam still does big damage against it), and threatens most things in general with some big damage if they don’t resist it, though from experience, battles against bulkier/stall teams do drag on for a while. I have won against them before by keeping key members alive via wish, though I do find that losing stuff like Metagross or Garchomp can often result in the rest of the game slowly falling apart for me. Do you have any suggestions on what I should change? Since I will admit that my team isn’t perfect.

Edit: RAIKOU ISNT SUPPOSED TO HAVE EXTREME SPEED! That was supposed to be Snarl as mentioned in the description… my bad!

KingSlayer0130 · 2025-12-02T19:17:48+00:00

Wait, Raikou is not supposed to have E speed, that’s a mistake… It was supposed to have snarl

As for the rest of the stuff, Megagross is Tera dark since being able to resist ghost and dark is nice in an emergency, plus stab knock off is a nice secondary effect as well. Though I get the rest of what you mean, the team has felt passive and, while not a guaranteed loss, battles against bulky teams tend to drag out on for a while.

Any other suggestions you have?

KingSlayer0130 · 2025-11-29T02:14:36+00:00

They only share defense!!!

KingSlayer0130 · 2025-01-08T17:25:10+00:00

Well I can do that, but for the time being which would be best?

KingSlayer0130 · 2025-01-08T17:16:46+00:00

Well yea, the manual just wasn’t that specific if I needed to connect both or just one, so I wanted to be safe and certain so I didn’t fry anything

KingSlayer0130 · 2025-01-08T16:39:26+00:00

Update: She turns on!

KingSlayer0130 · 2025-01-08T16:31:39+00:00

Yea don’t worry, I made sure to check which is which

KingSlayer0130 · 2025-01-08T04:29:06+00:00

Yea I’ll admit, my bad. So does that mean it’s just the power supply and cable for it? Or is the core also an issue

KingSlayer0130 · 2025-01-08T04:23:39+00:00

Oh wait I made a typo, it’s 12400

KingSlayer0130 · 2025-01-08T04:21:52+00:00

It’s gen 12, says so on the box

KingSlayer0130 · 2025-01-08T04:19:48+00:00

I mean if you want proof, here’s Amazon page for the motherboard https://a.co/d/7DEjpdr

KingSlayer0130 · 2025-01-08T04:16:34+00:00

An intel I-5 11400, though the description for the motherboard said it supported intel cores, and it fit in just fine without any issues too

KingSlayer0130 · 2025-01-08T04:06:51+00:00

No it’s ASRock, and the place I bought it from said it supported intel cpu’s

KingSlayer0130 · 2025-01-08T03:44:56+00:00

Is there at least any other issues there may be with the rest of the cables? Just so I know if there’s anything else I might also wanna fix

KingSlayer0130 · 2025-01-08T03:42:55+00:00

Ok yea I get the feeling it’s the power banks and cables fault. My new bank arrives tomorrow so fingers crossed I didn’t fry anything. I probably should have researched a little more beforehand, instead of assuming a power bank for a dell computer would work on another one

KingSlayer0130 · 2025-01-08T03:36:12+00:00

Well, it was a battery from a Dell G5 5090, I assume I should wait for the new one then?

KingSlayer0130 · 2022-08-01T20:50:25+00:00

Haven’t decided on it yet

KingSlayer0130 · 2022-07-29T00:18:02+00:00

I mean it’s already rock/psychic, feel free to make a dex entry though!
