I don’t think shinnies show up too frequently. I didn’t want to shiny hunt before legends Arceus and S/V but because of them showing up in the overworld and being easier to find it’s actually fun to shiny hunt and you still get the dopamine when I find one. I actually really enjoy getting a few shines naturally

If I'm gonna be honest, I actually wish shinies were more common. Shiney hunting, especially in older games, can be an extremely tedious process, and a pokemon being a different color is honestly a pretty underwhelming reward. There are a few that look cool enough to be worth it, but a lot are either underwhelming, or just bad. Why would I want a pokemon that looks worse than its original form? Just because it's rare? Getting struck by lightning is rare too, doesn't mean I want it. At this point, shinies are just a preference, and one that's very annoying to get.

Pokemon without RNG is just a spreadsheet

For the shiny take, on one hand I found a shiny Tarountula literally hour one of my Violet file and have gotten nine shines across my file, but on the other hand literally every single one has felt magical.

The journalist probably haven’t touched competitive / doubles lol

“Shiny Pokemon are too easy to find” Me, who has two entire sword boxes full of rowlet I hatched trying to get a shiny

Are we ignoring the fact that tasty fought a Salamence with a Blaziken lmao

A horrible take I heard on Discord was that it’s a good thing that most Mythicals are locked behind limited time events because, and I quote, “making them permanently obtainable just kills all the hype behind them”

I've played a few turn-based RPGs, and the Pokemon battle system doesn't strike me as especially simple. It seems to me that the battle system is a complicated as you make it, you can brute-force it, give your Pokemon a bunch of high-power attacking moves, or you can finesse it, building a stall team.

Lorelei is indeed hot AF. For shinies, even if mathematically, they are easier ti find, in practice, it's not that easy. I played ALL mainlines games multiple times, and except when I was explicitely looking for one (fish chaining, Masuda egg, or spamming sweet scent), I think I can count the number of shinies encounters on a single hand. (not couting Gyarados in gen 2)

Whoever said finding shinies was easy? I've not found one (a Weedle btw) since Gen 3.

I must admit, I really hate critical hits, they make catching Pokemon a nightmare...

I really appreciate that the video is creating healthy communication of our thoughts of a franchise we all love. If I were to give a critique, I was hoping for more of a video where there was going to be debate between two sides of the opinions where one person would play as devil's advocate. Instead, it came off as a little bit of an echo chamber tbh, without any room for understanding the mindset of the opposing opinion. Granted, some of the opinions were already weak arguments to begin with little to no room for genuine discussion like pokemon being a bad rpg etc. Overall, great effort in the video and I'm always excited to see more content from you!

I agree on everything but the last point. We should be allowed to criticize the things we appreciate (to a degree, there definitely are fans that complain about the tiniest things). Something like a game from 2022 running properly and steadily isn’t an unrealistic expectation. You can’t blame it on the hardware because games like BOTW, TOTK, and Witcher 3 run just fine on the Switch and are bigger than Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. Pokemon is the biggest media franchise in history, it should have some respect for itself

I feel the shiny being easy is nice because ALL people should be able to see every feature and shouldn’t be keep for people that have a lot of time to play. Also is not that the game obligated you to do a sandwich or masuda method and you can always hatch 4000 eggs if you want

Shiny Pokemon don't show up too frequently. It *still* feels amazing every time I find one, and the only thing more exciting than that is randomly finding Pokerus that I wasn't expecting (like the one time I got it on my Scorbunny starter!).

"Lorelei is HOT AF" This isn't opinion. It's FACT 😍

Critical hits are fun and definitely should remain as a core part of the game, but could be handled so much better. The current system is leagues better than the Gen 1 base Speed reliant system, but when "high crit chance" moves like Night Slash only give an 8% increase to crit chance (~4% to ~12%) while being barely stronger than a boosted Knock Off (which also removes the opponent's item) _even when_ scoring a crit, then you know something is wrong. So high crit chance moves should be amped in base power, maybe to 80 would be fine, and the crit stage boosts should be buffed as well (stage 1 could be 33%, stage 2 could be 66%, and stage 3 could remain as guaranteed crits). And on the flip side, defense boosts should offer _something_ against crits instead of being completely ignored. Obviously, the boosts should still be reduced from the normal amount to prevent Cosmic Power cheese and the like from going crazy, but something like +1 defense being a 1.1x boost, +2 defense being a 1.2x boost, etc could give more usage to moves like Amnesia, Bulk Up, and Calm Mind without keeping them as cheese or nothing moves due to the chance of a rogue 4% chance erasing multiple turns of setup. IMO, the stat stage boosts themselves could also use an overhaul, being more effective at earlier stages and weaker at later stages to let +1 boosting moves like Work Up and Hone Claws shine, but that's a whole other topic.

The only problèm i have with the pokemon community is i can't take i break without people insulting me because i hate Paldean Wooper Clodsire Tinkaton and Ogerpon and i love Iron Jugulis, the worst part is i respect people taste but they doesn't respect mine

Okay, two takes from this video. 1. The Physical/Special split was a great idea, but it was implemented kinda poorly. To this day we don't have good physical electric stab and mons like banette got shafted incredibly hard. Heck, even gengar which got its stab moves wishes it could use the elemental punches like it used to so it could be more creative. If it was implemented with account for these mons, it would be great. Still overall positive change that was needed, but it ain't all sunshine. 2. I think shiny pokemon are alright right now because they still are difficult to find unless you specifically look for them, which is fine by me. The normal rate is still 1/4096, so that is incredibly low. You can get them to high odds, but you have to have the resources to do it, which means you are trying to get shinies. I can see why it might be disheartening, but I think it is for the best because not everybody wants to spend hours getting one. You can easily go back to older games if you don't like it and that for me is perfect if you want a quick or long hunt. Still, love the video.

*sips coffee* this’ll will end without me getting even the slightest bit mad

best video ever on gangster no cap no cap thanks bro shepskydad for inviting me along!

I also have a take, steel types are good at math. Don't ask me how. I just know.

What's that music? I know it's from PMD but i forgor the track name.

The first shiny I really hunted was Hisuian Zorua, zo with "easy" odds but it still felt like work. I remember trying to shiny hunt using the rod in Pokemon X as a kid and never succeding. On the other hand I got a lot of shinies in Violet by just roaming around (like 2 the first evening I played the indigo disk). My fav shiny in this game is the Noibat I got with the Masuda method before I even went to the academia. The odds were awful but I got her in less than a 100 eggs so I was so happy. I get why people think it's too easy. But I think it's important to give tools to the players to make the process easier if they want, and the planning is an enjoyable part of the process.

For the turn based point, most people forget that this game was made for children. That should've been a point to press upon more.

Critical hits in trainer battles are good and makes sense. But i don't really see much of a reason for them to exist with wild pokémon battles.

There are people who think the physical/special split was bad? There are so many more Pokémon that are usable because of that singular change. And people complaining about critical hits is funny because like, it's an RPG, most RPGs have this. Even if Pokémon has a competitive side to it, critical hits are integral to the core experience of what makes an RPG an RPG.

Pokémon Silver was my first video game ever let alone rpg.

I’ve long been a critical hit hater; in my opinion they don’t need to do extra damage on their own. They can ignore stat drops and return an attack to its usual damage, that’s a balanced way to get around bulky setup ‘Mons, but to suddenly do extra damage is an unfun mechanic that doesn’t take skill or planning. In fact, you often have to plan around them

I still don’t know why they never added a shiny patch item you could buy from the battle facilities. I guess they think you gotta “earn” them by wasting anywhere from a few seconds to a few days hoping rng rolls in your favor. Or they just want to distribute shiny locked legends via mystery gift since that’s sooo memorable

I have been playing pokemon since it was first released, and in that ENTIRE time, the only shiny I have found that wasn't a forced encounter like the Gen 2 Red Gryados, was a Shiny Donphan in the desert in Scarlet. I have yet to find another shiny since. So whoever thinks shiny's are too common? They're the luckiest bastard in existence, to apparently be running into a Shiny more than once in almost 30 years.

Rather than shinies being too easy to find, it's more the entry criteria has lowered. Since you now just have overworld spawns, the modern encounter style speeds up your rolls. You get 10-16 encounters at once, rather than running back and forth for a couple seconds for a single encounter. There are still ways to get the super difficult feeling if you are the type that wants the grind, like egg hunting and just not getting the shiny charm for instance.

How about Scarlet and Violet still suck and I’ll keep playing the older games I do like and are not an embarassment.

I think pokemon just need to experiments with changes a lot more. Getting rid of critical hits may actually work if they compliment it with more changes, like reducing the stat raise cap and adding moves that ignores such stats raise with the drawback of being less stronger, like a 75 base power flamethrower that ignores special defense raise. I think status too can benefit from such changes too, like instead of some moves like ice beam having that freeze chance relying on probability, it instead relies on how many consecutives ice beam you land. Like you take 3 ice beams in consecutive turns and you get frozen. I know these are drastic changes and that rng is part of what makes pokemon it's own thing, but i don't think the game wouldn't benefit from trying new things to shape the battle formula.

The last part is a bad take. Im not a big pokemon fan, but if a game franchise Im a massive fan of that I supported throughout the years turned up with a buggy mess that Id find hardly acceptable from an indie dev and downright unforgivable from a massive company, thats gonna result in some complaining. Im a big dnd nerd, and everytime they put out a book that has 2 pages of content and the rest is filled with "yeah here are some ideas for the dm to flesh out", Im gonna complain and not buy anything until the quality is fixed. If silksong comes out and its barely functional, Id be upset and talk about how its a massive let down. If ultrakill dropped the ball and suddenly became shit, you bet your ass Im gonna complain. If a company as big as gamefreak puts out a bad game, people will complain. You cant just go "oh well just dont play it and stop complaining" when they do stuff worth criticizing.

The worst take I've heard: HMs need to come back

I can see why somebody might not like the physical/special split, its harder to remember every move's physical/special type and you can just remember 17 (or 18 now i guess) types. However, it made no sense 😂

My thoughts on crits/RNG: Pokemon is an RPG, not just a competitive game! The game isn't always meant to be perfectly fair! Sometimes it's really exciting to have to deal with something terrible happening, and everyone knows how good it feels to get super lucky.

Common take I vehemently disagree with: "Luxray should be part Dark-type." The "lux" in its name literally means "light", and anyway Dark-type is Evil-type in Japanese, so there's more to it than just being black. I also very much do not think Pokémon should have their anime voices in main series games.

Im an avid shiny hunter and honestly if i wanted a bigger challenge id just play the older games.

I think the Ice type needs some serious buffs, like more resistances besides itself. I think it could be interesting if Pokémon did implement some different mechanics to its formula. Not saying that the games are bad, but could benefit from more unique mechanics.

As someone who hasnt played since platnium.....i have no idea what stab is.

I find the battle mechanic idea kinda stupid the games are just made accessible for children there is still some challange in the newer gamers but they aren’t extremely hard . Pokemon has such great battle system there is a competive scene which is the only one of its kind and as someone who loved the indigo disk and found it challanging the battle mechanics really shined. Even comparing to other rpgs on the switch like xenoblade chronicles 2 both are held back by switch graphics I would argue Pokemon scarlet was more fun for me at least battle system wise

I am an avid competitive player and I feel like the physical special split wasn't nearly as accounted for as it should have been when they actually did it. A lot of moves that were common coverage for special attackers like the elemental punches and all dark moves became physical in the split, and inadvertently made typing in battle a lot more about Same Type Attack Bonus since Gengar no longer had to use a wide coverage pool and only needed to care about hitting hard on the things it can hurt or KO, gaining special ghost and poison moves but losing basically everything else it had

I completely disagree that shinies are common. I have a shiny charm in Pokemon sv and have played for hours upon hours without finding a single shiny pokemon in the wild. Hell, I've used a shiny power sandwhich before and got nothing!

I think it would be quite interesting if Game Freak in the future allows you to remove critical hits and secondary effects when battling online much like how you can disable items in the smash games. How would the game be played on a professional setting? I reckon no hax barring missing inaccurate attacks (Which is up to a player if they want to get screwed by bad RNG.) and damage rolls would be the new standard Smogon rules.

I was gonna say what i like and dislike about Pokemon, but instead I'll simply say, thanks for the picture of your dog. 🐶

Best type changing horse? And no mention of Glastrier or Spectrier? :O Wait do those count?

The only take I really disagreed with was Tasty’s take on adding Physical/Special split to older Gen rom hacks. I mean, if you’re playing a rom hack, you’re going in expecting a different experience. Otherwise, why play a rom hack if you don’t want newer Pokémon or mechanics that didn’t exist then added to the game? It’s essentially the Futurama What If Machine, but in game form. And not wanting those mechanics added after you opted in to play it is like that SpongeBob bit about the kid who didn’t want pistachio ice cream. Like, I do agree the older games not having it makes them feel special, and that changing it would throw off anyone, but if I’m playing a rom hack, I’m expecting changes. As for Shinies, I don’t think they’re too easy to find, but I can see the argument. Like, for starters, if you’re speaking from a Shiny hunter’s perspective, they can be super easy… but that’s usually due in large part to method hunts that you have to actively engage in TO make it easy. Like, sure, they lowered the base odds, but that’s still a 1 in 4000 chance of finding one without any modifiers. Add in the Shiny Charm which takes a lot of work, or method hunts, and it can be easier, but it can also be just as long a process. I do a lot of Masuda Method hunting, which is breeding Pokémon from different countries to increase your odds. I had a Poltchageist I hunted in Scarlet with Masuda Method. It took me 4,130 eggs, when the odds of a Shiny through Masuda Method are 1 in 512 with the Shiny Charm, and the base odds are 1 in 4,096. So it took me longer than BASE odds with a method hunt, which is super ridiculous. And it’s not the first time I’ve had luck that bad. On the other hand, I’ve gotten Shinies as fast as 2-3 eggs before, very rarely, so Shinies CAN be too easy to find… but really, they’re only as easy as you make them. And even then, you can just get that bad of RNG even with all the methods and boosts to the Shiny odds. A similar point I’ve seen is defending the lack of audio or visual cues in Scarlet and Violet, and I just CANNOT agree on that one. Like, the only point I will concede is the game was developed alongside Legends Arceus, so they probably couldn’t have known about that change Legends was making. But with how small some Pokémon sprites are and how subtle some Shinies are, the challenge has always been about rolling the dice, not identifying the Shiny. So yeah, can’t exactly disagree on Shinies being too easy, but I also can’t fully agree. I do see both sides to that one. Like, XY were the first games for people to look at and say they’re super easy to find. Never found a Shiny I didn’t actively hunt for in Gen 6 period for a decade. It’s all a matter of RNG.

I think the main problems with shiny Pokémon is that it made certain ways to encounter shinies way easier, especially those used be people who are specifically hunting for them. The odds being boosted to 4096 a while back plus the amount of over world Pokémon are great for casual players who don’t hunt to actually be able to find a couple across a play thru. However with things like sandwiches it makes actually hunting for them stupidly easy for those that know what they’re doing. If they just got rid of those types of hunting methods and got rid of shiny locking to allow hunters to do old fashion soft resetting for legendaries this wouldn’t even be a debate.

It'd be nice if there were SOME moves that were extra good at the cost of being unable to crit.

Pokémon doesn't give other turn based RPGs a bad name, because it can't. It shouldn't be a genre anymore as it's not nearly distinct enough to start making comparisons based off this one mechanic alone. A decade or two ago turn based RPGs was a feature that could define a game on it's own, nowadays it's just one mechanic out of possibly hundreds if not thousands that you can choose to put into your game as a developer. Pokémon doesn't give other turn based RPGs a bad name, just like Baldur's Gate 3 doesn't make Final Fantasy or Persona 5 look bad. It doesn't make sense.

Dragon claw... was a physical move...

About the shiny Pokémon being too easy to find, i actually found 2 shinys in 2 days, it was a blue psyduck in lets go pikachu and a tyrouge with blue underwear in scarlet´s dlc, by the way if you where wondering edit 3 other siny i found was a goomy in scarlet and a skarmy and bronzor in go.

Pokemon Red was my first video game ever. Even outside of Pokemon, I love playing RPGs.

My opinion on the shinies is that I think because of how many raw pokemon you encounter means you will find more on average. I think to fix that in games with so many encounters they should go back to the 1/8000 but from kalos to galar the 1/4000 works like perfectly

As somebody who recently tore through Crystal with an elemental punches Kadabra, yeah it sucks that those attacks are useless on him now. I wish every special attacker that once had access to the elemental punches simply got the special variant instead after the split. Personally I care way less about Shiny mons now that we have Marks. For me, shinies were just a way to make your individual mons stand out a little more, but there's so many different titles your mon could have whereas there's only one shiny form they would have. Though nothing will top Stadium's weird little feature where your mons' nickname of all things would give it an ever-so slightly tweaked palette. Pokemon is unmistakably an RPG for beginners. And with how varied the wild encounters are in the more modern games, it'll be as easy or as hard as you allow it to be. Box your starter, rotate your team more often. But if you still need more of a challenge, play Shin Megami Tensei or Digimon Story or Monster Hunter Stories instead. Claiming Pokemon "gives turn-based RPGs a bad name" because it's easy is like claiming Kirby gives platformers a bad name because you can just float over all the difficult platforming challenges. Just don't use any optional mechanics that would make the game easier. These clickbaity video game articles with hyperbolic takes, man. Sheesh! My unpopular take is that the gyms and dungeons are the worst aspect of mainline Pokemon. Even when trying to make the game more of a challenge I still find those monotype bosses to be too easy to steamroll, and for every abandoned building, ruins, or temple, there's several caves and foresty areas that don't even try to stand out from the other dozens of caves and foresty areas in the series. Scar/Vi having no real dungeons at all (save for I guess Deep Area Zero) was like throwing the baby out with the bathwater though. Also here's an even more insane take: You know how the modern games' friendship mechanic will give max friendship mons an increased crit ratio, increased evasion, a chance of healing from status ailments, and a chance of enduring hits? I want champion & rival battles where the opponent's team has those mechanics as well!

"Critical hits shouldn't exist!" -Something probably every competitive Smash Bros. player says upon playing Pokémon, because it isn't enough that they've taken all the fun out of Smash Bros., so why don't they take all the fun out of Pokémon, too. -_-; So far, I've only ever gotten ONE Shiny Pokémon since the chances were increased to 1 in 4,096: a Venomoth in Area Zero in Violet. Before that: A Poochyena (in Generation 3) and two Geodudes (in Pearl). Plus, the Red Gyarados in Generation 2. I do not "Shiny hunt". Who does the "Shinies are too easy to find now" crowd think they're kidding, here? -_-;

I've played mainline games for 11 years of every generation and have found NO shinies.

My friend has literally never found a shiny lmao

I have played pokemon all my life and still play it alot nowadays, and i still haven't randomly ran into a shiny pokemon, so i don't think it is too easy to find shiny pokemon

6:34 damn based ass line

Well hello there! New video!

7:59 welp, guess theres only one thing to do

how dare you diss chikorita like that leave my sauropod pal alone you can quote stats at me all you like, idc. I just like dinosaurs and the chikorita line are happy dino pals

theres too many good shiny hunting methods. shinies should maybe be easier to get casually but there shouldnt be all these shiny boosting methods to make it so theyre not even rare if you're actively searching

i dont understand why someone would be mad about someone else finding shinies without hours of grinding. If u enjoying grinding out hours literally so happy for u and this journey but why are u angry about somebody else stumbling across one??

The way that Pokémon is the standard for RPGs is sort of how Mario is the standard for platformers. Yeah there are plenty of great platformers out there with their own unique stuff, but it doesn’t make Mario bad just because of that.

(6:52) It sounds like he just plays the main storyline but does not bother doing the Battle Tower or equivalent post game challenge. Additionally, playing Pokémon competitively is anything but simple.

Ironically I subbed to tastykenter right before this without watching this video or his video

Arceus is a llama not a horse.

You lost me when you implied I didn’t have the right to judge S/V for being unfinished.

NICE VIDEO SHEPSKY

Are shiny pokemon too easy to find? Yeah, if you go out of your way to HUNT them. I love shiny hunting and talking to my fellow hunters about past hunts, up coming hunts and long hunts etc, but I also love random shiny pokemon. Those go into a special box on my save, and then I get to tell an interesting story too. I have a cute charm glitch platinum making shiny pokemon are pretty common, so imagine my surprise and joy when I found a 1/8192 odds magnemite while looking for shiny magmar. Moments like this make for good stories and memories. shiny pokemon are both easy and hard to get, you just gotta know what you are doing.

Bro went to vp for one day

I do not think Shinies are too easy to find, nor do I think that grinding to this extent should be something you feel obliged to do. Rather than making it easier, or even harder, I would suggest making the shiny experience different where if you're elaborately trying to get a shiny, you can go about it in a more engaging way. While there is a "shiny hunting" community out there, I think the game developers could make shinies a cooler part of the game - like the Red Gyarados or even a New Game+ experience where one new random Pokemon will be guaranteed shiny the first time you meet it (hopefully after you get Pokeballs) every time you New Game+.

Here’s my Pokémon hot take I didn’t enjoy playing the Johto games because of the level curve. I do like the characters and Pokémon in Johto it just the level curve

unrelated but one of the teeth in your avatar is uncoloured(transparent)

My hot take is that it's really annoying how every switch game needs to be compared to breath of the wild,are pokemon graphics incredible?no,but people make it seem like it's ps2 hagrid graphics when it's really not

Games in this series never looked good(exept the batle and trainer sprites in the 4 and 5 gen) and where at best a litle bugy. This series is also one of the worst designed turn based rpgs, it made me hate this genre. The only thing i like in those games are the music and the nonexistant exploration. The character design is good but is used better in the card game and the anime.

6:23 To me, they aren't I don't like shiny hunting, it makes shinies less special, unless you want to have the shiny of a certain species, shinies are more special and valuable if you found them by casualty while playing

I do think that shinies have become too easy to find, but with the nuance that the game has implemented so many ways for players to opt-in to finding them. On top of the Shiny Charm, which the game will give you once you complete the Pokedex, players in Gen 9 can choose to lower their odds to 1/512 by using outbreaks and Shiny Power sandwiches. While all these systems being opt-in (apart from the Shiny Charm) is a fine way to do it, I think that it severely devalues finding shines and makes having a shiny less meaningful. It would be way better and show more dedication from the player if the odds were permanently 1/4096. My real radical take on shiny Pokemon is that I don't think they should have ever been implemented back in Gen 2. I think by adding them Game Freak set themselves up for the situation they're in now where people want them so badly they have to add systems to make them easier to find so that everyone can get as many sparkly things as possible.

Im a shiny hunter and i dont care that theyre easyer. Like at all. I dont hate or like it idc. Meanwhile my kinda ex buddy who isnt a shiny hunter rants that theyre too easy now and its because of us shiny hunters fault for that because we "asked for them to make it easier" and its gotten so annoying thst i just cant talk to him anymore. He ONLY talks about pokemon, not his job not his life ONLY pokemon.

BKC wants to know your location.

Through my year's of playing Pokemon i only found 3 shiny across all games hot take graphics are not even thing in video games

0:01 3/4 of thise options are correct

I have a Switch Lite. I have enjoyed games like Shining Pearl and Sword. With that being said, given all the criticism of Scarlet/Violet, would they be worth it to pick up for my collection? Also quick balls rule

Honestly i feel like Critical Hits need a rework like a bar to charge

No, Scarlet and Violet do suck, and this should continue being talked about. They're an insult. Garbage. No game should be released in such a state.

Regionle forms are a better version of mega evolution.

Wow that shiny take was fucking garbage‼️‼️‼️ I absolutely hate the sentiment that shinies are too easy to find and it ALWAYS comes from people who think they are elite for hunting 1 encounter at a time at 1/8000 odds. Dont like outbreaks, sos, sandwhiches, dynamax adventures or any other shiny huntint method? Fine! Just hunt them at full odds instead of moaning about the fact that people dont have to waste their life away for a palette swap

It just feels like that you have so many gizmos and gadgets at your disposal for shiny hunting now a days

Thegamer is just a content farm btw

Certain shinys

Today Is my birthday

8:00 Whenever someone says "Pokémon introduced me to turn-based RPGs", I'm convinced that most of the time that's code for "Pokémon is the *only* turn-based RPG series I have *ever* played, and I don't plan to change that anytime soon".

9:16 saying "Pokemon fans need to relax" is such a hilariously trash take. Scarlet and violet had unacceptable performance, and that is a fact. There are open world switch games that came out half a decade before it that run better. The game is embarrassingly unoptimized and until they show they can actually make a game of acceptable polish I won't be buying another Pokemon game.

If there wasn't ways to drastically improve shiny odds in gen 9 I'd say shinies are still pretty rare, but sandwiches and the shiny charm exist, and you can find like 20 pokemon in the overworld at once Even then I found two or three shinies in my playthrough before I got the shiny charm and it was more of a 'oh cool' moment than something I got excited about, when in previous generations I would have been very excited

IMO they should make it so more moves always land as crits. That way they can actually be relied on as options for dealing with stat changes instead of having to pray for a 1/16 chance of it happening. It's not like we don't already have moves that do that anyway; Frost Breath and Storm Throw have existed since Gen 5.
