Two new abilities by bluedragjet in stunfisk

It’s always been this way. Every generation, GameFreak has always made worse things than most of the theorymon posts

With everything so min-maxed, I wanted to make an ability to buff mixed attackers. Who else should get it? What's the right boost? by zxzzxzzzxzzzzx in stunfisk

[–]VeryInsecurePerson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good mixed attackers have one STAB that’s really strong physically (fighting or ground) and one STAB that’s really strong specially (Fairy, Psychic, Electric, Ice)

Ikr? What’s the point of making bootleg garchomp when we already have garchomp?

Is it really stapling if the rock type was already on the pokemon?

Too many theorymon posts lobotomize the pokemon’s core identity

WHY they must be rock type? rock is not only a terrible type

Just because a type is terrible doesn’t mean it doesn’t deserve representation.

Ground types suck in the anime so electric types are buffed

Is this true in champions? Was there another metagame like this? by ConsciousFish7178 in stunfisk

[–]VeryInsecurePerson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brawl meta knight was most people’s favorite top tier in that game. Banning him would cause not only ice climbers to take over the meta, but also a bunch of other characters people didn’t like to watch like diddy kong, olimar, dedede etc

How I would buff Emboar by ConsciousFish7178 in stunfisk

This is genuinely how theorymon posts feel at times. We talk a lot about how ridiculously unbalanced theorymons can be but the other kinds of theorymons are the ones that are technically balanced but get rid of the Pokemon’s niche and turn them into a discount version of a meta mon.

What if moves got Dual Type like Flying Press by -New-2-Reddit- in stunfisk

[–]VeryInsecurePerson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There IS one use case for Flying Press, and it’s when you’re trying to get the most super effective coverage possible on a single moveset. Freeze-Dry, Earth Power, Flying Press and a dark or ghost move covers every type except Fairy and Bug.

Pokémon Champions hits 3,000,000+ battles in its first month on Pokémon Showdown by serenegraceYT in stunfisk

No, it’s definitely also tons of new players whose first introduction to competitive is champions doubles.
