@GaBlazle@lilguybigplans@DinomiteVGC koko has an item and its attack is 115 so the difference is 20 whereas xchu has 135 attack and 90 spatk
koko also doesnt have access to volt tackle
@uchiha85732@AFlyGuy_ its simply a different skillset. what tournaments are looking for with OTS is consistency. being able to find lines that are safe or making plays based on prediction with what they could do is not “taking the skill out of it”, but it is a different skill required
@HachiSmash reaching masterball on the first day vs first week versus second week is a huge difference. there are at least 150k people in masterball and now that we’re later into the season we look at masterball mmr
@MasterAydenSmal@naka33530116 32+ SpA Armarouge Aura Sphere vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Mega Tyranitar in Sand: 112-136 (64 - 77.7%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
what scenario are you talking about?
@Sportaholic_21@PyreonPT oh no thats not what i meant. ive seen people call it CSR or calyshadow or ghost rider but shadowrex is a name ive never heard
@Quello_Scarso its like calling miraidon and CSR frauds in reg i when they have the biggest targets on their back like everyone is building to counter them
@0xKiryoko@IchhabkeinAuto@just_a_folk95@Alexis_Vgc a bit more casual is definitely wrong, and theres no need to put quotation marks on official since it is
each turn of doubles matters twice as much as singles. as someone who played both, its easier to get over mistakes in singles than it is in doubles
@DemonEmperorV@UncleLouPKMN everyone missing the point is crazy. he didnt blame new players, he blamed the company for not organizing well enough and taking that into account though its hard to blame them either cause the hype generated is unprecedented
@45mice@BlackBeartic not that im using it or that im biased but i think you can give a fairer assessment for skarm. note that it has stalwart as well and ignores follow me or rage powder.
32 Atk Mega Skarmory Iron Head vs. 32 HP / 0 Def Floette-Eternal: 200-236 (110.4 - 130.3%) -- guaranteed OHKO
@45mice@BlackBeartic the thing with chomp is that its just better with an item and the 10 speed slower is very detrimental. you talked about how crab isnt good because it couldnt ohko floette but under normal circumstances being a dragon and slower than floette after mega makes it considerably worse
@AshsHitbox@noeevermore@badgraphix not defending her about the vp thing but pledge is fair on quaquaval
if you double pledge, the pokemon that moves first will activate the pledge, and the slower pokemon deals the damage. eg meowscarada moves first but ultimately primarina does the damage
