I really wish Gigaton Hammer had the Freeze Dry effect where itd be super effective against steel types. I feel like it just makes too much thematic sense.

Just in general I'd love to see more moves with additional effectiveness boosts like freeze-dry, there's definitely potential out there! Gigaton Hammer's a great pick for that.

Yeah, it's weird. There are only two moves with different type charts than the rest. It's such an interesting move concept too, but to only limit it to Freeze Dry and Flying Press is rough..

@captain_buggles 7 ай бұрын

Even without evolving, it would be way better if it were just more synergistic and efficient in how it's designed. Pointless amount of stats wasted on defenses and sp. atk. I'm not proposing anything *super* insane because it's an early route bug, but still. Canon spread is 60/79/92/52/86/35. And I actually think it could stay pretty slow and still benefit from its other traits, saving some points for them. So I would propose like 60/109/72/42/66/55, even being purposefully conservative with how much the Sp. Atk gets lowered so that the minmax feels less "tryhard". Even just 55 speed really boosts how much it would outspeed after they get affected by Silk Trap or Sticky Web. And I would give it priority, so that there are more situations where Stakeout is actually good for something. Shadow Sneak would make a decent amount of sense, given that it's an ambush hunter. Mach Punch could arguably work when it already learns a couple of Fighting-type moves.

Idk if anyone commented this but one move that always interested me was toxic thread. It’s basically a poison type string shot, it lowers the opponents speed by one stage, and poisons them. If the opponent is steel or poison, they can still get their speed lowered. Idk if it hits two targets in doubles like string shot but it is quite a unique move. If it does it hit two Pokémon in doubles, it would be a better poison gas, without the poor accuracy. If you’ve never heard of this move, that’s because it’s exclusive to spinerak and ariados, but was added in sun and moon.

It has really good coverage with Giga Drain and Scorching Sands, and I Maxed it in Trick Room with Dusclops to activate WP and slow it to a decent speed with Bulldoze. I literally did it because I was in Wolfe's sub server and people hated on him. When I showed them proof and said "It's not a bad Pokemon" people took that to mean that I thought it was a top tier threat, so I got harassed. It was particularly annoying because I know for a FACT that if a player like Wolfe or Cybertron used it and said it wasn't bad, people would have loved it. I'm a believer in that every Pokemon is usable, but not necessarily good. Most of them require specific setup to make work, but they're definitely usable. It's fun to theorycraft that shit.

Tinkaton is especially a shame as it doesn't need that much more attack to be decent. Gigaton hammer has such a high power that even coming off a base attack of 90ish it would still do a crapload of damage.

It already does more damage than talonflame's brave bird, but because it's slow it can't really spam this nuke as much as the bird.

About No Retreat: If the mon you're using is already unable to flee before using No Retreat (mean look, or simply being the last non fainted mon in your party), you can just keep on using No Retreat and get the omniboost

I'm one of the single digit number of people in the Ariados fan club and I think it's criminal that it was gifted such a neat move, Toxic Thread, but doesn't have the stats to do anything with it. Sticky Web plus a move that can poison AND lower speed is awesome utility, but it's too slow and not bulky enough to make good use of it (though I did try in Sun). Give this move to a Poison type with middling speed rather than abysmal and we could see some Venoshock/Merciless strats really pop off!

If I'm not mistaken, there is a way to use No Retreat more than once in a game, Falinks must get trapped on the field (by Mean Look for instance), I don't remember if before or after the first No Retreat (I think the latter), but then it can use it again!

Explain to me why Volt Tackle is limited to the Pikachu line. Imagine how great Eelektross, Electivire, Luxray, Zekrom, and Zebstrika could be if they could actually do meaningful damage. Having to rely on Electric Take Down for physical coverage is awful and I wish they experiment and give away Volt Tackle more cause not only is it dumb to get being egg move only and with an item condition too but it’s limited on a Pokémon with base 90 attack (55 if you’re using Light Ball Pikachu over Raichu)

There's that weird interaction with No Retreat where if you trap yourself with Jaw Lock you're able to use no retreat multiple times, which technically removes one of its limitation. You could try it with smeargle when it's available

@reperfan4 8 ай бұрын

I know this one isn't a "bad" Pokemon and the move isn't broken or anything, but the fact that Zamazenta can't learn King's Shield is the biggest thematic travesty in the franchise. Zamazenta's ENTIRE identity as a legendary is defined by being "the shield of the kings of Galar." It not learning King's Shield is like if Mewtwo for some reason couldn't learn Psychic or Groudon couldn't learn Earthquake.

Spidoperative nation member right here, legit my favorite Gen 9 ‘Mon. I LOVE ogre-faced spiders and their BST is a tragedy. I also think they should keep Silk Trap as a Signature Move, since that’s very specifically a thing that their IRL counterpart does. Y’see the thing they do on the cover of their Dex entry? They do that. In real life. Just smother prey in a melee web.

If there is anything to be learned by the Archaludon situation, is that perhaps they might give Spidops a better 007 evolution on gen 10. Then the spidops nation will truly rise. Asside from that, I wish that thematically Houndstone would get revival blssing. Like the whole thing with the pokemon is that it was such a loyal pokemon it came back from the dead. I get that the combination of Revival Blessing and Last respect could get slightly abused, but it gets only one use.
