@black-redpill3 11 месяцев назад

Volbeat is kinda bad all around and Starmie doesn't really rely on its abilities in doubles, so having Illuminate changed to be a support niche effect gives both of these Pokemon incredibly specific but unique support scenarios they can run with.

Tbh I think way to buff e-exit is have it trigger at the end of the turn rather than right away. Right now Golisopod gets hit, and has to switch out, so it only ever has the option to use First Impression. If it were to be an end of turn effect, it would work similarly to teleport where you could get in a different mon safely, as well as still allow Golisopod to use the move that it is intending to use if it wasn't going to be priority.

@walaceandrade4046 11 месяцев назад

Yeh i dont know why they didnt went with that from the get go. Its not like Golisopod is a fucking monster stat wise like Slaking and needs a nerf through its own ability.

@fatyoshi696 11 месяцев назад

what I would also do is make golisopod retain its stat changes after getting forced out by emergency exit, so if it used swords dance earlier it can come back in and threaten with a +2 first impression instead of having wasted a turn

@ctm3922 11 месяцев назад

Yeah this is really all that Golisopod needs to be a lot better. The fact that its often completely denied an attack ruins it and this way it can get off an attack and a switch like a slow U-turn

@_y4020 11 месяцев назад

I saw one idea where Emergency Exit makes Golisopod use his last used move again, and THEN switch out. So if I smack the opponent with a fat First Impression and my ability activates, it casts First Impression again automatically, except it acts like U-turn now. Maybe broken??

@RiverWilliamson 11 месяцев назад

Thank you for keeping Klutz as-is. It is an hilarious ability

@anthonyk3952 11 месяцев назад

Klutz actually does have a genuine use when combined with Switcheroo. It lets you bluff items with negative effects, and then switch them to the opponent who wouldn't want it, like giving Flame Orb to a non-guts Pokemon, or a Choice item/Assault Vest to a support Pokemon. While the Klutz user doesn't get the benefits from the item, they also don't get the negative aspects of it.

@janniko6681 11 месяцев назад

Slaking should have a hidden ability that is similar to truant but if slaking fails to hit in the turn when it’s active, it will rile him up and it will guarantee that slaking is active again in the next turn and will also power up its move by 1.2. This practically changes the tempo of slaking and hopefully make it competitively viable

@AdmiralStormy 11 месяцев назад

Counter point. Slaking has a high HP stat. While under half health have the ability become Vital Spirit. Get some of that Vigor back in the Sloth.

@RabblesTheBinx 11 месяцев назад

I actually think that would make Slaking utterly broken. I mean, yeah, still missing a large percentage of its turns, but a guaranteed, _buffed_ re-roll if it doesn't hit basically ensures that not only does it lose its main counter, but it also can spam low-accuracy attacks and even if it misses, it can rely on its insane stats to survive a turn to try again. It would also make paralysis basically useless as a check, since being fully paralyzed would ensure a powered-up move the next turn. Basically, It would only ever be truly vulnerable on the first turn after it KOs a Pokémon.

@hen883 11 месяцев назад

Ball fetch could also have the affect of picking up items that were knocked off by any Pokémon. It’s still a niche ability but at least it does something

@vilukisu 3 месяца назад

I feel the obvious thing would be to grant a buff/effect when holding a pokeball. A step up would be granting different effects from different pokeballs but that might be too complex

@mectainea5575 11 месяцев назад

I would have like to see heatproof give the user complete immunity to fire type moves altogether . Currently the Bronzong line and rolycoly are the only pokemon with the ability and the former could benefit from having the option to choose their immunity between ground or fire thus giving it a neat use case. Plus I always thought this version of heatproof would be neat on Regice to give its lore of being impossible to melt a practical aspect for it in gameplay

@Matthias-pj6th 11 месяцев назад

Another possibly interesting variant for Color Change would be to make it work like the defensive half of the Legend Plate from Legends: Arceus. For context, the Legend Plate would allow Arceus to automatically change it's Type to the best defensive Monotype vs an incoming damaging attack (I.E. if you tried to hit it with Earthquake, it would reflexively change to Flying Type) before the attack went off, and then reverting back to Normal Type after the attack. It would also cause Arceus and Judgement's Type to automatically change to whatever was most effective against the target (I.E. if you used Judgement against a Gyarados, it would change Arceus and Judgement to Electric Type for a STAB-boosted 4x Judgement) By making Color Change into the defensive half of Legend Plate (I.E. changing to whatever Type best defends against the incoming attacks), it would preserve Colour Change as a purely defensive ability that takes control of Kecleon's Type out of your hands, while being potent enough to actually be worth using. To elaborate, this would mean that Kecleon would be Immune to damaging Normal, Electric, Fighting, Poison, Ground, Psychic, Ghost, and Dragon attacks, while making it resistant to everything else, but also allowing for Status moves to still be used against it (It won't change in response to non-damaging attacks like Spore or Will-O-Wisp), thus turning it into quite the wall despite it's incredibly lacklustre stats (Special Defence notwithstanding)

@pketr5 11 месяцев назад

Make it work once per turn and that should make it fair for doubles. Make it work once per switch, should make it fair for singles. Might not be needed based on its stats but who knows.

@levv-baksteenjongen8742 11 месяцев назад

Ball fetch should increase a stat depending on the ball that the user is holding like: quick ball increases speed and the master ball adds 50% to all stats or even more, it would also make pokeballs viable as a held item

@geometryemperor 11 месяцев назад

Some abilities that are mediocre would be Forewarn, Frisk and Anticipation. While not terrible, they do not really impact the fight much, especially when you know the opponent's sets. They could each get some rework to have an additional effect.

@cornonjacob 11 месяцев назад

Before open team sheets became the norm this gen, frisk was at the least kinda useful in most scenarios so I think it's fine as is. Forewarn is in a similar spot but generally less reliable bc it only tells you 1 move out of 8 vs 2 of 2 items, and only the highest damaging move. Like "oh, urshifu has close combat, that's crazy, never would have guessed" Yeah anticipation sucks, no clue how to fix it tho

@blackbuffalo62 9 месяцев назад

Forewarn should protect you from one super effective attack, anticipation should give you a one-time endure or type-reduction berry effect from a super effective move, and frisk should steal the opponent's held item (as long as the frisker doesn't have one) upon being sent out

@IronDino 8 месяцев назад

Forewarn, alerts the user to one opponent's most powerful move and reduces the base power of that move by half for three turns (like a more limited version of Aurora Veil). Frisk, alerts the user to the opponent's held item and prevents it's use for three turns (like a shorter version of Embargo). Anticipation, alerts the user to one opponent's supper effective move and reduces the base power of that move type by half for three turns (like a shorter version of Water Sport or Mud Sport).

@louisangle1597 11 месяцев назад

Klutz could be interesting if you make it fumble it's item on it's first turn of the field. For example, a Lopunny holding a Choice Band could use Fake Out turn one, and then the Choice Band would be useable turn two.

Atk (Plus) and Defence and Sp. Def (Minus) to ally Electric and Steel Types. Doubles if both Pokemon on your side have both Plus and Minus 9) Slow Start - If they keep the counter resetting upon switching, it should instead only halve the Speed stat for 5 turns 10) Zen Mode - Changes form upon switching into the field *Thank you for coming to my Pokemon TED Talk.*

I wouldn't mind ball fetch be taken in a parental bond kind of spin but for ball, bomb and bullet class of attacks. A little inversion of the bulletproof ability 🏀 🐕 Edit: a thought just came to mind. Another way could be like oricorio's dancer ability but for the attack classes stated above

BTW as of the lastest SV update that dropped today Illuminate stops accuracy drops instead of effecting encounters. Some data miners found it

Klutz is really funny to use with Lagging Tail Lopunny. Has access to a pretty solid Fake Out, and you can then Switcheroo the Lagging Tail onto an opposing mon with no detriment to Lopunny since Klutz makes her unaffected by the item.

I love Klutz honestly, I'm glad you didn't change it. You can use it to trick an Assault Vest onto a stall mon which is hilarious.

@giovannirocket9954 11 месяцев назад

So for Ball Fetch, it can power up "bullet" type moves like Shadow Ball and Bullet Seed by 20%. Alternatively it could give multi moves that don't deal contact damage an additional hit, making Bullet Seed go from a 2-5 hit move to 3-6 hit move.

13:12 well, Malisson prof. Lapin came up with an idea for ball fetch and it would be a kind of Stakeout clone, wich, sounds kind of weird, but it could be a little more useful

@DeisFortuna 11 месяцев назад

Illuminate boosting accuracy for the pokemon with it *does* make sense, but I also feel like it could work as a Punk Rock type ability for Light based moves like Moonblast, Dazzling Gleam, Flash Cannon, and any others I'm probably forgetting... But I also feel like that effect is more deserved for a more aggressive pokemon's signature ability, or an ability that sounds more like it's gonna focus those light based attacks into a laser. Also, while Klutz doesnt *seem* to have a competitive use, it does, since it not only renders the pokemon immune to getting tricked a bad item, but it can just say "no u" to the strat by running a detrimental item itself.

@RudolphMcNeil 11 месяцев назад

I think there is a few way ways we could buff Truant, without breaking it: 1. Allow for very specific non-attack-based moves to be used, that are themed around being lazy or nonchalant. Stuff like yawn, slack off, after you, amnesia, sleep talk and so on. It would not be the first Game freak made such specific abilities, look at Bullet proof and abilities like that. 2. On the turn that it is loafing, Slaking gains a 1 stage defense and spec-def buff. This will prevent it from just being ganged up so easily while it’s loafing and in a team that has Aurora Veil, Screens or if Slaking had raised it own defenses through something like Bulk up/Amnesia on a turn that it could attack. 3. Make it so it has a built in leftovers on the turn it loafs.

@duckiivg6738 11 месяцев назад

Ball fetch could be like a redirection ability (same as lightning rod) but for bullet like moves (so compare bulletproofs list) and the idea is the user is so obsessed with catching balls it catches moonblasts and shadow balls an gains an attack boost

@i-work-at-enron 10 месяцев назад

There was a Plusle-Minun combo in Colosseum's Battle mode that absolutely destroyed me. I don't know if they had perfect EVs or what but they just rain dance-thunder'd the hell out of me and I had nothing to counter it at the time.

@jbyrne4531 11 месяцев назад

FINALLY!! I've been using the Truant = True Ant explanation as headcanon for years.

@roccopecori8446 11 месяцев назад

I actually have an idea for ball fetch, it can be made so it nullifies the switch in moves like u-turn or volt switch for the opponent (imagine it like the pokemon intercepting the opposing trainer pokeball)

@_puduposting 10 месяцев назад

I think it could be fun if ball fetch has a chance to return a teamate's item during double battles after they use/lose them Like your ally gets hit by knock off, lose their leftovers, or throws their item with Fling and Yamper goes back to retrieve it, same case if they use a held item that can only be used once (not berries tho)

@GeorgeDCowley 8 месяцев назад

I was thinking that Truant should have higher power/always crit when it works, fitting Slacking's lore. 5:50 I think the "joke" is that Golisopod only pretends it's different.

@scorpionvenom9031 2 месяца назад

Honestly, I like the idea of the ball fetch ability synergizing with fling like that. Fling doesn't get much play, and when it does its very niche and gimicky, so having a pokemon be able to reliably use it like that would be really fun

@JustaGuy_Gaming 3 месяца назад

Fetch could do something like 20% (or higher) chance of taking the enemy item when used. So if they use a berry, you have a chance of getting that same berry. If it's something like Leftovers, a persistent item you get it fully as well. Small chance to work, and can't work if you already have an item.

@sveipr6516 11 месяцев назад

Ball Fetch - When an opponent uses a "ball/throw" move (shadow ball, energy ball, weather ball, fling, rock throw) Yamper "catches" it and throws it back at the user.

@PlanGoneAwry 7 месяцев назад

Ball fetch could be like a lightning rod/ storm drain like ability but for ball moves. Basically like bulletproof but with some sort of stat increase instead of immunity

@DonDavelle 11 месяцев назад

You forgot Tangled feet, cute ability because because the pokemon who have it are essentially pulling a drunken fist, but not only do you have to roll the dice to see if that +1 evasion actual means something, you also have to do so to see if your pokemon actually hits through confusion. To make matters worse, the only pokemon with the ability that can confuse itself without pinch berries is Dodrio who has to use Thrash.

@williamdrum9899 8 месяцев назад

Should at least reduce the confusion self-hit chance from 50% to 20%

the idea i had for ball fetch was that it would steal and then use ball moves so if you had a shadow ball targetted into you, you would use it against them instead LOL
