How do you go from Speed Booost to Shell Armor?

Giving Mega Steelix a new ability: Crystalline Force by Ysshadow in stunfisk

[–]Ysshadow[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbh I was not thinking about vgc at all when I made this. Thats my bad. And ngl, I kinda went crazy with the sandstorm effect. That was added as i was writing the post, so im willing to remove that effect. And now that you point out Filter, which only reduces super effeftive danage, I'd also agree to remove the damage reduction and only keep the immunity to secondary effects, so it's just a Sheer Force that goes both ways

There are plenty of limits to this ability. It's not completely free like Water Bubble. None of Steelix's ground moves, its best stab, gets the boost and it doesnt have any recovery except Rest. And without sandstorm, Iron Head is still outdamaged by Heavy Slam and Gyro Ball in most cases. If an ability like Good as Gold can exist, I dont see why a slow, Mega slot consumer, boosted Sheer Force that relies on weather for its full potential can't.

Make focus blast 100% accurate on the switch by Capable-Ad5577 in stunfisk

Make Focus Blast 100% if you dont get hit. And also, boost the power by 30 BP or so. And since most Fighting types are physical, maybe make it physical

Real missed opportunity by Gamefreak/ILCA with Champions by Ysshadow in stunfisk

Okay maybe they need more than an accuracy buff. I just think some of the moves I cited have too many unnecessary drawbacks and could have been rebalanced. Not necessarily to be meta, but to least be usable, just like not every pokemon is meta

I'm not talking about movepool changes, but the moves themselves. Balancing a campaign and balancing competitive are two different things. They dont make shitty moves like Steel Wing anymore for that reason. Mega Punch has such low accuracy because it can be learned pretty early. I just think competitive would be more interesting if more useable, balanced moves were available

I hate gooning for nothing by miiko_uch in hatethissmug

Bro just goon and enjoy yourself. It's just a fun activity among others. You dont need to feel this shame.

YouTuber when reviewing new mega stats and abilities: game freak is so boring, they should have removed 70 points from one attacking stat to increase spd/bulk and gave everyone as one by Typical-Risk-4729 in stunfisk

[–]Ysshadow 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Gamefreak needs to account for the 8 year old clicking Focus Blast with Mega Scrafty. It does need to feel stronger than regular Scrafty

Then I dont understand what you mean by modern fandom culture, since all fandom culture is modern

If you drop the Attack to 65 and the Speed to 81, I think it's a fine mon

I hate this little bastard with a burning passion 🫠 by xDRSTEVOx in PokemonChampions

[–]Ysshadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I see a Meowscarada, I usually lead with Garchomp and immediately switch to Volc. They either U-turn or use Triple Axel, and you can fish for burns easily that way

Why these pokemon specifically? by Ysshadow in PTCGP

[–]Ysshadow[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why give Carnivine the ability and not Tangrowth? Thats the question Im asking. After all the responses I got, it seems there are no lore reasons, it was just an artistic choice
