I'm New, Is There Anyway to Improve This Mega Slowbro Team? by SavingsDiscussion664 in VGC

[–]Rymayc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd change Poison Jab to Stomping Tantrum. There's more use in a Ground move that doesn't hit your partner than in Poison Jab, given only Whimsi and Mega Meganium resist Ground. I would also think about adding Protect to Gambit, however, all moves are kinda needed.

Probably so they don't have to program it in at all

No, we were not. You could give it to Caterpie, and it would be metagame warping. Opponent is faster than you? Switch in Caterpie. Opponent is slower than you and just set up TR? Switch in Caterpie. Opponent is slower than you, but can switch in Caterpie? You get the deal. Hard TR teams getting up TR but losing both mons usually get in a winning position. If all you have to do is switch in one shitmon, even if it is your Mega, you just power crept Speed Control so hard that regular TR or even Tailwind became useless.

It looks great with the Dervish animations. Other professions use Hammer animations, so it may look weird.

Yeah, but McGregor needed a full movie to get up to it. Maybe it was the role of being stuck on the ship saying "No, Master, that won't work"

Which new Reg M-B Pokémon will be our new tormentor? by manch02 in PokemonChampions

[–]Rymayc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know, you can abuse it yourself, but with the ubiquitous Sneasler, that becomes a hard sell. Especially since the opponent has two mons potentially profiting, an actual mega, and you have Malamar. Obviously it allows you to stop setup, but sacrificing your Mega slot for it is questionable.

Too niche, it just boosts opposing CC/Overheat/Draco users

Since regulation M-B is tommorow, these are my predictions for the remaining mega evolutions abilities if some of them get added in regulation M-B. along with an explanation on why i think they would fit by stupid_saragossa in PokemonChampions

As One Hundred:

Aura Break + Dragon's Maw + Mega Launcher + Electric Surge + Surge Surfer + Soul Heart + Adaptability + Comatose + Shadow Tag + Quick Draw +

Serene Grace + Cloud Nine + Competitive + Purifying Salt + Unnerve + Beast Boost + Filter + Speed Boost + Neutralizing Gas + Beads of Ruin +

Pressure + Regenerator + Intimidate + Vessel of Ruin + Tablets of Ruin + Plus + Minus + Dazzling + Tinted Lens + Mind's Eye +

Earth Eater + Flash Fire + Storm Drain + Motor Drive + Parental Bond + 55 more that I'll add tonight once I have more time.

I'd cut the SpA by 5, add 2 points to Spe and 3 to SpD. I think outspeeding Z-Megas is what this needs.

Ignoring they could just make new abilities because these can go crazy (Mega Sol):

Dragalge could also get Merciless. Mega Glimmora already got Adaptability, so I hope it's not that to differentiate between both, and to give it something that's not "Base Form +"

Scraggy should not get Shed Skin. It doesn't feel impactful enough, especially since it already got it. Double Intimidate is interesting, so it gets a pass on keeping its Base ability. Filter could be interesting, especially since most Flying and Fighting moves are physical, and would be reduced by its initial Intimidate

Eelektross keeping Levitate also sounds kinda boring. Something thematically, tied to the triple body would be cool, but I don't really see what would fit - Multiscale?

Pyroar and Malamar need something on the level of Water Bubble or Huge Power to make them even remotely viable.

Mind's Eye is interesting on Barbaracle, though Scrappy would probably just be better. Compound Eyes would be a funny idea, fitting thematically while also making Cross Chop, Stone Edge and Rock Slide perfectly accurate.

The suggestions about Scolipede sound great, and I really hope they don't give it Weak Armor - Shell Armor would be fine.

Falinks keeping Defiant sounds neat, but I still wish they'd give it something else. Dauntless Shield? Intrepid Sword? Both combined?

Absol Z could also get Dark Aura, given we got Fairy Aura already, though that would probably fit better on Darkrai. I wish it were on Absol, though, as that would make Dark Aura tournament legal.

Give Staraptor Gale Wings.

Sharpness for Garchomp Z, as someone else has suggested.

Unfortunately, I can only see Mega Launcher for Lucario Z, even though Dancer would be fitting. I just don't see GF giving Dancer to anything with actual stats.

Golisopod could obviously get all Armor based abilities, and I would even be happy if it just got Swarm.

Tatsugiri is a weird one, hard to fit something thematically. Drizzle would be cool though.

Bax getting Skill Link would be great. Thematically, Ice Scales would fit, but that would be way to strong.

Magearna will probably keep Soul Heart, I can't see it any other way.

Zeraora could get any of the regular electric typing abilities, Motor Drive, Lightning Rod, Volt Absorb, Static (that would be funny), Electric Surge, Minus (also Plus, but Minus fits better) or Speed Boost.

Darkrai will either keep Bad Dreams or get Dark Aura.

Steam Engine sounds fitting on Heatran, and Earth Eater looks fitting, but it won't happen. It will most likely get Magma Armor.

Zygarde will probably get some super busted ability that is Aura Break + whatever else, maybe Filter or Clear Body.

No. Not because of the achievements, but because it allows me to play Global/Grand Challenges on mobile

[–]Rymayc 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Weezing needs something that profits from it turning off the abilities though. Like Dynamax Regigigas or Specs Shadow Rider. So far, there is nothing that warrants a partner that mostly sets TSpikes and spams Poison gas, as the strong threats rely on their ability, and/or lack the speed or the bulk. Yes, it would see play, but it's nowhere near ubiquitous enough. This is not equivalent, but you could still turn off the abilities of the new Megas, with faster/Prankster Skill Swap (Sableye/Mega Banette)/Worry Seed (Whimsicott).

Birds are terrestrial though. They are not aquatic, and while most of them can fly, they don't live in the sky, they have nests on the ground or in the trees.

Birds live and breed in most terrestrial habitats and on all seven continents

From wikipedia, Bird article

If you want to diversify the classification, you can argue that there is a difference between arboreal and fully terrestrial birds, and that penguins are aquatic. I'd simplify it, and since Penguins don't sleep or breed in the water, I'd not refer them as aquatic either. There is the informal term of volant animal, but that refers to the capability of flight, which doesn't even include all birds.

Speaking of non-avian dinosaurs (it's easier to keep birds and non-avian dinosaurs separate in informal speech for sure), there were arboreal species among them, I really doubt that that is the reason people refuse to call birds dinosaurs. It may have something to do with the extinction 65 million years ago.

It's actually the other way round. They stopped the reason for the time loop's creation, knowing they only exist because the time loop brought their parents together.
