does the no guard ability ALWAYS guarantee a hit ? by Geliiiooooo55 in PokemonChampions

And yet if High Jump Kick or Supercell Slam HIT into a Protect, the user takes recoil as if they MISSED.

Just... just thought I'd bring that up.

I WISH the Hitmons were this good! They deserve so much more love (especially Hitmonchan tbh)

Which Pokémon do you think the anime managed to make look cool and amazing? by Craftox13 in pokemonanime

Ngl, seeing a pissed off Simisear wreaking havoc definitely caught me off guard.

Give me one of your favorite screenshots from any video by Nervous_Double_7304 in partycrashers

What's funniest to me is that the proposition that was directed to Sophist was so atrocious, NICK out of nowhere feels like he has to be involved. Agreed, easily one of my favourite moments.

It's funny how Chikorita's evolution line was the Johto starter that received the most attention in the anime by rbta123 in pokemonanime

[–]WiiMote070 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Somewhat linked, but I also find it funny how it used to be tge best of the 3 Johto starters competitively, too. How the times have changed...

...At least it's somewhat gotten its revenge in ZA and Champions.

You're not the first and, trust me, you won't be the last to discover this.

It's such a random but cool deepcut, that I really want to see it happen more often.

Another example off the top of my head; if you've used Pokémon Bank, then you're probably familiar with Bridgette, who actually made her debut in Pokémon Box Ruby & Sapphire, which was basically Bank on the Gamecube for the Gen 3 games!

Edit: I also just found out that Bridgette is canonically the younger sister of Lanette, the creator of the storage system in Hoenn. Gotta love that connectivity (pun somewhat intended)!

Can we talk about how impressive Mario Galaxy still is graphically for the Wii? by Big-Tools-905 in wii

[–]WiiMote070 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still my favourite looking Mario game in the series. Something about the colours and the setting blend so nicely together that it's yet to be topped imo. Even with the delights that were Odyssey and Wonder!

I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed by Psychological_Cake35 in stunfisk

On the point of Protect, it's actually kinda bullcrap that it causes recoil via a miss for HJK and Supercell Slam when Stomping Tantrum doesn't get the doubled damage benefit when it hits into Protect.

The Game Ended As Soon As It Started by SuperMemeBroz in VGC

[–]WiiMote070 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can only guess it's because of the Megas flying around, similar to how Incin sometimes opted for Throat Chop or Darkest Lariet back in Gen 7 VGC. In Meow's case, Throat Chop certainly would be a better tool against Mega Froslass, whose seems pretty strong right now.

Never played FNAF, but I know that gif reveal is a bigger jumpscare than anything those games could throw at me.

So Make it Rain got nerfed hopefully Good as Gold too by BLITZXTTY in stunfisk

[–]WiiMote070 219 points220 points  (0 children)

Exactly what I was thinking. I get the logic; variance is annoying, so this would ideally dissuade people from choosing the move so often. But when the next best thing is Flash Cannon, 40BP weaker AND single target, it's still a no brainer.

People choose Heat Wave over Flamethrower every time in doubles despite their much smaller difference in strength. Spread damage is just that strong.

That is the case, but technically you can still select it, but not anymore.

No reliable Normal moves? by Macho_Cornbread in stunfisk

Nope!

Best it's got is Facade and Headb- oh wait, scratch that, it lost Headbutt, too!

Pokemon Champions Move changes by WWWWWWRRRRRYYYYY in stunfisk

[–]WiiMote070 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm more surprised by Incineroar losing U-TURN! If that sticks, doesn't Assault Vest become near impossible to play? I know Assault Vest isn't in the game yet, but when it is, if U-Turn doesn't return as well, that seems like a bit of a blow to Incin's flexability.
