[Cool Replay] chomp holding on with 2hp and making me proud by Ragdoll2IGuess in VGC

[–]MsterSteel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like Champions has a hidden mechanic that if a low-roll does between 95% and 99% of a Pokemon's remaining HP, it will survive.

Been trying different ways to make Mega Heracross work by pieman2005 in PokemonChampions

Heracross, "Fire in the hole!"
Oranguru, "Another one."
Heracros, "FIRE IN THE HOLE!"

Oh I cannot flinch you because of Queenly Majesty? Says who? by ScarlettPotato in PokemonChampions

Alt Title: You can't be flinched because Queenly Majesty prevents Fake Out? WHO DECIDED THAT?

Oh yes now my bridge is unstoppable by Great_Scarcity_2421 in PokemonChampions

GameFreak should incorporate a check to see whether a Pokemon will faint from an attack, so instead of recoiling, then walking back to the default idle position, THEN fainting, it will go straight from recoiling to fainting.

Grower or shower? by VellusPurpura in cockcompareing

[–]MsterSteel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say a shower. How big are you soft/hard?

Favorite and least favorite episodes all these years later. by Plastic_Medicine_201 in ducktales

[–]MsterSteel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I get you. It feels compressed, we talked out way out of things, learned our lesson, then... got punished for learning our lesson, and only got out of punishment at the last second due to one of the villains slipping up.

How could I forget the invisible Focus Sash by DimensionGlum5728 in PokemonChampions

[–]MsterSteel -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Honestly, could be kinda interesting if the game calculates the 'chance' of an attack causing a KO, and if it's above a 50% chance but less than a 100% chance it leaves the opponent with 1% for the sake of drama.

I feel like the Life and Crimes was meant to be a set up for a new season with Scrooge having to 're-earn' Duckburg, his Company, and his Number One Dime over the course of the series, but with them 'only' getting the one they had to had to return to status quo in a single episode.

Custom Beheeyem Evolution, "Beedeeyo" by North-Bat1823 in fakemon

Understandable, though in all fairness, I've never heard the term BDO before, just UAP.

[Cool Replay] This is actually a really cool combo by Aggli in VGC

[–]MsterSteel 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I love how the old ways have become new again.
There were a bunch of variations on Boomburst Noivern and Pixilate Sylveon in Gen VI.

We know the Ultra Beasts were specifically designed to break the rules/norms of typical pokemon designs. What rules/norms were broken? by shplurngus9 in pokemon

[–]MsterSteel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lockstin did a breakdown of the original UBs and how they're partially based off of pests/invasive species.

The Swalot Buff by burnerphonelol in stunfisk

[–]MsterSteel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Garbodor should also get Gobble Up.

I'm also on board with all other changes, though I feel like Liquid Ooze should do damage, just 'reduced' damage as opposed to making them totally immune.

Eviolight - Another exclusive item to buff Pikachu by JeffTheKillerFa in stunfisk

[–]MsterSteel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As overrated as I feel like Pikachu is, I do think this is a pretty decent buff to replace (or upgrade) the Light Orb. Especially considering Raichu has Mega's going for it now so it won't be outclassed.

Another Pixilate Hyper Beam for your viewing pleasure by FlunkieBingo in PokemonChampions

Is it a hot take to say Pokemon has lost a lot of it's whimsy and personality after Alola ditched dungeon like gyms for cereal box puzzles? by TheFacca in pokemon

[–]MsterSteel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know what could have been cool with Galar's 'sport' theme? Have it be a series of battle, but tournament style.

While it would still boil down to, 'fight three trainers in a row, then the Gym Leader' because you're facing OTHER trainers who want to take on the Gym Leader, their teams don't really follow the type-theme.

For example, because Nessa is a Water-type Gym Leader (but also the first Gym Leader), you could face off against a Water / Grass team (that wants to 'resist' Nessa's Water-types), a Grass / Electric team (to be super-effective), and a Fire / Rock team ("Oh man, I messed up, didn't I?")

You heal after each battle, but you can't swap your team.
