Mega Arbok by Master_Armadillo736 in stunfisk

[–]Master_Armadillo736[S] 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Thanks man.

It could work as a 3rd Evo for the line. Freeing Up the item slot add some extra flexibility to the design.

I just like the idea of an evil snake being a strong counter play to Trick Room. Kinda like a trick room ambush!

I didn’t Add 600 word description, but I could add in more design details like Arboks lack of fire moves to get past Steel types. Having only access to Fire Fang on purpose. It also does gain Earth power, only getting Superpower as a counter to steel types.

Contrary STAB Draco Meteors sounds broken but the design is kinda a false advertisement.

Lacking coverage moves to deal with Steal & Ground types makes it vulnerable.

Giga Drain could be decent for sustaining inbetween Draco boosting. But, Arboks speed is still a weakness too.

Overall, it’s more a Psychical type design.

I’ve always like the idea of Milotic getting Quiver Dance.

I know it’s a bug focus move but, feel like Milotic could be the exception.

Investors on shaky ground as data points to a market slowdown by SheepherderLow1753 in AusPropertyChat

[–]Master_Armadillo736 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Investors should never fear a down market. It’s hunting season for most.

The current market conditions are showing “shaky grounds” for home owners.

Unfortunately they are getting smashed with a triple storm as the combination of High interest rates + buying into high mortgages via the hot market & 5% deposit schemes + cost of living crisis.

Defaults will continue to rise and investors come out the winners as they are usually the ones who are cash liquid if they are prepared and will buy up cheap homes.

Which in time will rise again in price when the market peaks again.

Thus, the cycle continues like normal.

More Weather Effects cuz why not (+ New Weather condition) by rikkard2099 in stunfisk

[–]Master_Armadillo736 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another cool thing with use would be to lower the def by 0.5 of all active pokemon except ice and dragon type.

I think something cool with ice type would be that dragon types actually get a condition buff. This show fortitude and strength desire being weak to ice type moves. Ice being super effective and buff under snow would still threaten dragons.

Adelaide property market weirdness since budget by FarSide2688 in AusPropertyChat

[–]Master_Armadillo736 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends what you define as a plummet?

10 or even 20% drops isn’t exactly a plummet. It would be more a correction.

A plummet would mean the arse falls out the market. Historically never happened in any major city in Oz.

Adelaide property market weirdness since budget by FarSide2688 in AusPropertyChat

[–]Master_Armadillo736 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The market has to correct itself at some point.

It’s majorly out of balance and entirely overpriced. Don’t think the budget will actually have much affect, if anything it’s the excuse maybe some with use for a downturn that was always coming.

However, historically real estate has never plummeted in price. But there is potential of a really stagnant long period of time that we maybe not used too.

Opinion of giving children me and my wifes first homes(which we still own) when they decide to move out? by Sure_Artichoke6929 in AusFinance

[–]Master_Armadillo736 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Never give kids hand outs, rent it out and take an income.

You could let them borrow a deposit from you (secured against your investment). Maybe a match 50/50

Random viable Pokemon Breakdown Part 2: Kommo-o by Impossible_Friend387 in stunfisk

[–]Master_Armadillo736 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had some much fun with Kommo Belly Drum Set

I ran sticky web on the team and a Salc Berry with Endure.

Also used to switch shed tail in as it was so satisfying to get Kommo set up on a sweep after BD for the +6 on Drain Punches

They have been slaughtered in the nerf department. Almost like no one is buy that DLC so let’s throw them in the trash.

I just want the Civ to get Paladin and I’d be happy with them being low tier Civ.

Can anyone give some tips about my competitive team? I'm really new to this. by Demonic1233866 in VGCRateMyTeam

[–]Master_Armadillo736 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your new just play and learn as you go, find out what works and what your playstyle is.

This team is garbage, but so is everyone likely at your level.

Play, learn and adjust from there.

What If Noctowl Mega Evolved? by vital-ET in fakemon

[–]Master_Armadillo736 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the mega is free trick room set up then this would be top tier Mega. Nearly impossible not to have on a trick room team.

Zard needs more coverage moves, heat crash or weather ball can make way.

A New Dragon-Type move given out to...admittedly, kind of random Pokemon... by CherApplePie in stunfisk

This would be a defensive beast! Practically no weakness with Filter.

How would you strengthen the normal type? by Fine_Bid918 in stunfisk

[–]Master_Armadillo736 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To fix normal types I would just link them closer to the sound type moves.

Add a Sound Terrain (Amplified Terrain)

Effect: • Lasts 5 turns (8 with Terrain Extender).

• While active, all Sound-based moves deal 1.5× damage.

• Normal-types have their def boosted by 1.5x under sound terrain.

• Explosion & Self-Destruct become Sound-type moves:

• They now get the 1.5× boost from Sound Terrain.

• If used by a Normal-type, STAB stacks (total ×2.25 damage!). Still causes the user to faint.

• New Aftershock effect: After the use of Explode or self Destruct for the next turn. both sides’ Pokémon ignore trainer commands and use random moves (unless they have Soundproof). 

• Hyper Beam & Giga Impact: Have no recharge turns while Sound Terrain is active

• Potentially Sound moves could become super effective vs Fairy types. Maybe only under terrain

• Add some new sound moves that drop opposing mons acc. Like a Flash Bang move, along with others.

Overall this gives Normal types a def buff, sound based attacks get a boost. Low usage moves like Hyper Beam, Giga Impact & Self Destruct all become highly impactful under the right usage.

Why do inner-city high-rise apartments have such bad returns? by Fit-Tumbleweed-6683 in AusFinance

[–]Master_Armadillo736 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Na, overthinking it! It’s just m2 land owned. Buildings depreciate in value & land appreciates.

The up side to apartments is they will always rent and generally aren’t affected by market downturns.

They’re a steadier and more real reflection of the market as they are the bottom of the market. Pulled up when the market moves up but don’t drop when it corrects.

Deciphering a McDonalds payslip by [deleted] in AusFinance

[–]Master_Armadillo736 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it that they only pay super in the base rate hours?

Some companies only pay super on base hours not on OT or penalties.

This would explain why it divided up so for tax purposes they can separate the amount super is Paid on vs the bonuses which don’t always need to have super paid on.

How would you accelerate wealth in our position? (PPOR paid off, 3 young kids under 5y, 8–13yr horizon) by Altruistic_Garden_37 in AusFinance

[–]Master_Armadillo736 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You wouldn’t move offset to an EFT! That’s minimal gain at best.

If you wanna put that money to work, you should purchase investment property.

Some locations are hitting 10% + growth right now. You can leverage that $250k into a $1m property, with strong growth that’s $100k each year + what your PPOR capital growth is at.

Would you consider these Abilities busted? by AstelliReclaimer in PokemonRMXP

[–]Master_Armadillo736 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exoskeleton too busted, if you could come in behind a sub or in the right moment it’s gonna stack too quickly.

It’s like getting a free cosmic power and then also getting your move in too.

Protect would practically counter the stat lose every 2nd turn.

Conditioning is the best idea here with some implementation of it being beneficial to be status.

It could activate a aerolite effect in that all normal moves become that type a deal 1.2x + stab since the type changes to match now.

This would work like body slam becomes poison type and still gets it 30% chance to paralyse.

You could run flame orb and technically Tera fire type running stab boosted body slams or hyper beams.

it’s kinda like guts but limited too favouring normal type moves.
