On the note of really weird Assist shenanigans, did you know that it's a banned move in exactly gen 6 Balanced Hackmons? A buddy of mine made a joke-ish team back then that ran 2 Prankster Primaldon (ability clause prevented more than 2 copies of an ability per team), Imposter Chansey, and 3 mons that used only non-callable moves + V-create, and it worked alright. Then someone thought "you know, idrc if half of my team is PDons that only have Chatter, non-priority V-create, Whirlwind, and protecting moves, that's still cracked." This was followed shortly by someone innovating on it by using Thousand Arrows instead of V-create since it nullified a larger pool of already-niche answers like PrimSea Ferro (which was checked by your DesoLand Pdon) or Flash Fire (similarly handled by the one with Mold Breaker). Pretty much the only true silver bullet I remember to the strategy was Prankster Imprison Mega-Gengar, a pretty useless set in any other matchup. Then someone proved that Primal Kyogre could do the same thing with the raw power of Steam Eruption, and Assist wound up banned shortly after. Funnily enough Mega Rayquaza was never able to pull the strategy off well bc it still lost to most steel-types, which is also the main reason that it remained legal in gen 6 BH while the Primals were both eventually banned. These are two of the funniest facts I'm got from oldgen BH, besides the fact that it was BH players who first developed endless battles

If you try hard enough you can find a niche for any Pokémon. Did you know that gsc charmeleon has the highest dragon type move while not being a dragon type itself in gsc NU? With a dragon scale, it can beat dragonair one on one a little over 60% of the time. The reason why you want a dragon type move and not an ice type is because you want to chunk the common teammate of dragonair and likely switch in Kingler, which is very dangerous if it can get up a swords dance for free

It's worth noting that despite Assist being a cut move, the flag that decides whether or not a move can be called by it is still in the game which is why Revival Blessing works with it on Showdown. Of course if Assist were kept in the game then it probably wouldn't be flagged as Assistable, but NatDex doesn't like adjusting data like that cause it can set bad precedent.
@HumanReverend

@@HumanReverend It's also not the first time Liepard has abused moves that should be on the Assist blacklist but aren't. In exactly Gen 5 NU Assist Liepard was a viable strat that wound up being banned for being awful to play against because you would run Liepard with Assist, Dark Pulse, Nasty Plot, and Substitute and then 5 backup dancers with cobbled together movesets that avoid running a single Assistable move except for Roar and Whirlwind. The goal was to leverage one of two win conditions; the first being hopefully getting hazards up through Ditto and just shred your opponent's team with Priority Roar, the second being to utilize the Priority Roar to fish for Pokemon that Liepard can set up on to sweep. The problem is that Liepard is kind of bad and struggles to execute this gameplan in higher tiers where it gets threatened out of setting up or just outright killed and walled despite +6 and a sub. However Gen 5 NU had Musharna as a common defensive staple and Musharna was free set-up for Liepard as it would have to give up one of its valuable move slots for *Signal Beam* to not be cat food. It was probably the worst best team strategy to ever exist until NatDex brought us the Kitty Hospital and I'm glad it got to pull some final bs after Game Freak tragically blacklisted Roar and Whirlwind.

In, once again, literally only gen 5 (and only really being viable in vgc i think?) two-turn moves like Dive and Fly are able to be called by Assist. Liepard and its pre-evo which i can't remember the name of right now would use that and some way of making sure they go last like iron ball or lagging tail or something to use a +1 priority first turn of Dive and a neutral priority second turn to effectively be invincible against basically all regular damaging moves.

While we're on the topic of Gen 9 flag setting that matters to *almost* nobody, the flag that Triage uses to check whether something is a recovery move (& thus granted +3 priority) is not set for Bitter Blade, despite the fact that Bitter Blade does recover HP. This is completely irrelevant for 99.999% of Pokemon players because Comfey isn't in S/V so the interaction would never come up. It is, however, very vexing to people who play Other Metagames, where Ceruledge might otherwise run a sweet Triage set.

I personally found crystal battle tower aerodactyl was a large threat to mirror match aerodactyl for one reason, supersonic. It seemed to hit my flappy boy 99% of the time and then he would flap himself in confusion 9 times out of 10. I ran bitter berry just for the mirror match and you know what, it worked consistent after that.
@IschmarVI
@IschmarVI 10 месяцев назад
It hits 55% of the time and makes you hit yourself 50% of the time. But Pokémon does that great thing where it gives you 20 bazillion opportunities to get screwed over by RNG so it is bound to happen eventually. So yeah, bitter berry is a good strategy here for sure so that there are now only 19.9999 bazillion opportunities to get screwed. It's called "playing the numbers game" and it is a really good strategy.

@CpnStan 10 месяцев назад
@@IschmarVI yes, the rng is damn near rubber banding in some circumstances. When I tried to run an eggs set in battle tower I remember an enemy pokemon getting first turn wake up something like 10 consecutive times. This is why gameboys got thrown through windows world wide!
