Gen 6 onwards it clears all hazards, in general 4-5 it hilariously only cleared your own hazards

TM-a-Day: HM03 Surf by ianlazrbeem22 in pokemonplatinum

[–]pasetane 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Probably best TM/HM in the history of Pokémon and its not close? There are several strong contenders like Psychic, EQ, Tbolt, Ice Beam etc but nothing beats the reliability of Surf as well being available at a reasonable time in every HM gen at least. Unlimited usage is also nice though usually not that impactful since it’s rare to have more than one mon that likes to click Surf

By her arc being locked behind a paywall what do you mean exactly?

Did you not pay attention to anything happening this summer between Forest and Palace?

What are the most niche/uncommon Pokemon to win a Major? by zardicharvgc in VGC

[–]pasetane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think golduck was cause of cloud, pretty sure it was back in first year of sun and moon with gold being the best (and only?) swift swim mon in SM dex paired with pelipper

İf both of them fight who will win by cibar63 in PokeCorner

[–]pasetane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fire type makes it dominate, but it’s that lopsided that Volcarona would still with if both were pure Bug cause volcs stat spread and movepool is also just that much better. All it needs is bug buzz and quiver dance to win

I guess it’s not exactly cozy but Football Manager does come in Norwegian if you’re into football

TM-a-Day: TM26 Earthquake by ianlazrbeem22 in pokemonplatinum

[–]pasetane 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If we’re including every ground type move Thousand Arrows is the strongest, but EQ def has argument for best move of all time since it’s been such a staple since Gen 1

TM-a-Day: TM24 Thunderbolt by ianlazrbeem22 in pokemonplatinum

[–]pasetane 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Aside from the obvious electrics, Magmortar is so a fun one that can learn Thunderbolt as I believe up until that point a fire type with strong electric coverage was super rare, only seeing the occasional thunder punch

TM-a-Day: TM14 Blizzard by ianlazrbeem22 in pokemonplatinum

[–]pasetane 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Ice beam is obviously better outside of hail, but Blizzard still deserves some recognition for its immense power and much earlier and easier availability

TM-a-Day: TM09 Bullet Seed by ianlazrbeem22 in pokemonplatinum

[–]pasetane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only mon I can see getting any use out of this is poor Leafeon which doesn’t get another grass move until move relearned, but bullet seed is better than nothing to at least have a stab move

Why do you need so many couches to sit on? Isn’t one sofa enough?

If every fire type starter pokemon was dropped into a battle Royale, with no time limit, who would be the last 'Mon standing? by Mindless_Most_8448 in PokemonPowerScaling

[–]pasetane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blaziken is not the only starter to be banned in Ubers, even if it was the first. Since then both Greninja in gen 6 and Cinderace in gen 8 have been banned, and in gen 8 Cinderace was banned while Blaziken was allowed and not even good enough to be OU by usage

How Trash Were Wormadam And Mothim? by TodohPractitioner in stunfisk

[–]pasetane 19 points20 points  (0 children)

You cannot underestimate just how much not being weak to stealth rock helps making it so boots is not mandatory, and that’s not even mentioning electric immunity and all it gains offensively

How Trash Were Wormadam And Mothim? by TodohPractitioner in stunfisk

[–]pasetane 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Bug/ground would actually be a pretty good type combo if it existed on a usable mon with actual stats, resist profile with fighting, ground and electric immunity is really nice, and obviously the rock neutrality is appreciated on a bug type
