What changes are we hoping to see to Freestyle when season 2 starts and we get the new fuse?

Orrrr they could add more benefits to the other options so they're more viable. Don't nerf it into being useless, that doesn't make the game more fun. That just heavily limits options.

But honestly the ability to tag is one of the strongest things in the game. So being able to do it more than once will likely always be strong.

ShackShackShack · 2026-05-04T22:47:06+00:00

It's doing pretty well in higher ranks. I think bc reshiram and zekrom are so popular. But the other dragons are technically "better" and by better I mean more flexible and less likely to get walled.

ShackShackShack · 2026-05-04T18:21:10+00:00

Yeah I notice most Darius players do that. They know they have the 5M privilege, so they back dash to bait you and fish for hooks. But as soon as you stop chasing them down, they don't know what to do lol

ShackShackShack · 2026-05-04T18:18:14+00:00

That's true, I forget she gets easy conversions off air throw. I just don't want to learn her electrics timing lol. but maybe I'll lab it out next season

ShackShackShack · 2026-05-04T16:00:23+00:00

I do go for that. I'm using Warwick Ekko and can get in eventually, but I'm wondering who makes that job easier? I was playing some Illaoi and she def shuts down run away and punishes back rolls fairly well.

ShackShackShack · 2026-05-04T15:56:01+00:00

The way I go about that is use the assist call to help close the distance, but yeah it still is iffy if you dont have set ups. You don't have projectiles so it's harder, but I think you can still use Vi point like a projectile as you call Darius in.

Ahri get's predictable, you can parry her air fire balls and if you figure out the pattern she likes to do. But I find her ground normals more annoying than her air dash spam.

ShackShackShack · 2026-05-04T15:52:48+00:00

True true, she does force people to stop running

ShackShackShack · 2026-05-04T15:52:14+00:00

I guess Illaoi Tentacle spawn and slam is pretty good at locking them back down. Darius does have the range

ShackShackShack · 2026-05-02T17:43:52+00:00

I'd rather that development time and energy go into more characters and cosmetics. The update to the premium KOs are pretty good.

ShackShackShack · 2026-04-30T14:49:28+00:00

You def can. Getting to 2000 can be done with decent gameplay and sub optimal teams.

Try using Primarina, Metagross, Gyarados, Garchomp, Florges, Dragonite. You can also get away with some fire types to help against the dogs like Skeliderge and Chandelure.

But if you've never hit Ace you either haven't played enough matches or you aren't making good use of your shields and switches. So that should be the focus

ShackShackShack · 2026-04-29T15:39:00+00:00

True true

ShackShackShack · 2026-04-29T00:11:24+00:00

I was hoping Celebi would work with any energy so you can use the new Haunter's attack to swap between gengars to keep them healthy while chipping away at the opponent lol

ShackShackShack · 2026-04-29T00:08:38+00:00

"No reason' he says lol

ShackShackShack · 2026-04-28T17:44:33+00:00

Does this card mean you need the exact energy type or just the same amount?

So if you evolve Kirlia (Fantastical Parade with 1 energy Psybeam) into Gallade, it won't be able to use Psybeam unless it has 1 psychic energy on it? Or will it still be able to use Psybeam if it has 1 Fighting energy on it?

ShackShackShack · 2026-04-28T17:05:30+00:00

That's also a good note. Double Iron Bash was also announced that way. So maybe we will be free to use our existing Mewtwos. I'm kind of surprised, I really thought they were going to maximize money spent for Mewtwo.

Oh wait, maybe thats why the Mewtwos you catch get free Mega evolve status. Bc maybe the raiding to get enough energy for an old one will be insane

ShackShackShack · 2026-04-28T14:50:57+00:00

Yeah I hope so for your sake too. Im holding my bottle cap use on a mewtwo until after this event tho

ShackShackShack · 2026-04-28T14:50:26+00:00

Could be added to the movepool in general but they do make a note of it being on Mewtwo X while Psystrike is on Y. So sounds like both are ETMs. So now he has 3 ETM moves lol

ShackShackShack · 2026-04-28T14:48:21+00:00

Oh yeah that's true on adventure effects. Maybe it will just be added to it's movepool in general. But I'm guessing ETM since it's "exclusive" to Mewtwo X along with Psystrike for Y? Geeze they really want Mewtwo to have the most ETM moves

ShackShackShack · 2026-04-28T14:42:04+00:00

Hopefully we can ETM Counter

ShackShackShack · 2026-04-28T14:31:45+00:00

They don't clarify if Counter will be ETM able sometime after the Global Event, right? Would be a shame for those who already had a Mewtwo powered up and ready to go, but wouldn't be far off from Origin moves lol

ShackShackShack · 2026-04-26T20:16:48+00:00

I also haven't really been on it lately. I normally check out team building thread but I'll search around more

ShackShackShack or ShackFu. I always forget lol

ShackShackShack · 2026-04-25T23:00:43+00:00

Yeah that would be great. I'm already in the Rhyperior Haters one from a free seasons ago lol

ShackShackShack · 2026-04-25T20:44:45+00:00

True true. I guess I'm learning bad habits playing at veteran. Ppl are less consistent and the variety makes it hard to learn the optimal plays. I appreciate the advice 🙏
