    This looks really cool. I am curious how Stealth Rocks and Dragon Pulse would work. Duraludon has always been a favorite of mine in this game. So seeing a rework is very cool.
    As for the midpoint question. I think they should rework Wigglytuff. She's always been a blast to play, but at this point, she is kind of too 1.0, if you know what I mean. Give the girl some modern tools to make her a truly disruptive Pokemon. Also, as fun as it is, drop rollout and give her something that helps her sustain herself longer, like Dream Eater or Chilling Water.

  • @big_axolotl_

    They should rework Duraludon again into Archaludon. But besides that they should rework Scizor scyther so that it stays as Scizor with both builds and Kleavor is added with a Scyther build.

      ​@@raylonghairdontcarehatton3585It's a dumb idea, Scizor doesn't learn dual wing beat. And their idea was inspired from main games and anime because Scyther and Scizor both shares same BST and so is kleavor. Agreed on adding kleavor, but removing Scyther is bad idea. They could add a third move option, or create kleavor as a separate mon which also like Scizor has ability to stay Scyther with same moves or if they really want to go crazy they can give Kleavor Scyther different movset.

      @@j_r28 Its just because scyther isn’t a real separate character (It doesn’t even have an official art) Also scyther plays more like a speedster while scizor is an all rounder so making both builds tanky and adding kleavor as a speedtser where one of its builds is identical to the old scyther fixes thats problem.

      @j_r28 Місяць тому +1

      @@big_axolotl_ But Scyther is still a valid pokemon, it has same BST. Scyther, Scizor and Kleavor are all on the same power level. You can have a separate Scyther character sure. But that's the point and idea of this split evolution the game wants to be. This same could have been implemented with Gardevoir too, they can release Gallade as a split evolution. But the only problem is both Gallade and Gardevoir are final forms of split evolution. While Scyther is the base form. Maybe can change their appearance and have both the pokemon shown in the license. I main Scyther, I would love to have a Scyther sticker. It's so disappointing to not have a scyther sticker or license appearance.

    I was always a fan of Flash Cannon, but before now Dragon Tail felt like a necessity. I never tried Stealth Rock until Dragon Dustup, which was kind of a Dragonite counter. The whole going through walls, setting 2, they stay around for a minute unlike Crustle, and they can stun opponents, never knew of it. It's pretty neat. Never was a fan of Dragon Pulse though.

    I would like to see reworks on Icicle spear glacion. It should definitely do damage based on range, it seriously makes no sense to me that you are dodrio you got clicked by Glacion with no aim, you hypothetically let's say are running Xspeed or eject + your ability, now you are half way across the map, you were 75-80% hp when engaged on Glacion, and now you are KOed half way across the map by the spears. It makes 0 sense to me, like literally.

    - Mew
    More than anyone I'd love a Mew rework to shift it officially into the Support role. It already has the kit to make it work and has been slowly inching closer that direction. Just need to modify a few moves a little more. Support role would allow it to be more balanced yet probably be funner for a greater amount of people.
    - Garchomp
    Make all move combinations do special things when combined like the dragon combo.
    - Goodra
    Rework passive to be more manual and less restrictive. Allow movement while casting Dragon-Pulse & Power-Whip. Lots more could probably be done but not more damage.
    - Comfey
    Passive needs total rework, as the last change to it was horrible and the opposite direction of where it needed to go. Latching off allies needs to be encouraged and another way this can be done is Floral Healing shouldn't heal much unless you have a full stack of flowers but if you stay latched the whole time you're an obvious detriment to your team.

    • @yourmomsuxdik4free
      @yourmomsuxdik4free Місяць тому

      Agreed, I don't know if you've played other moba's but in Heroes of the Storm, there's a character called Kael'thas from WoW, and his E ability is/was to ignit an enemy with a DoT, and after like 3.5 seconds, it will explode in the area shown around you to yourself and teammates, if it hits another champ/pokemon it will "spread" to them(only once until almost max level, then you could take a talent to allow spreading indefinitely, instead of max 1 time per character per cast) I loved this ability, and would love it on the game on an immobile mage character tbh. I know you read that and probably are like "wtf" but basically it was specifically just a problem for the players who refuse to learn from mistakes and walk away from teammates when ignited. It's a "unique" ability that I'd love to see in the game at this point with enough toning down to not be an insta pick in tournament levels. Think of Espeon future sight, but about double the radius and no %missing HP damage, just flat amounts, and if you stand near an enemy when you explode, they get a future sight put on them with a full duration before explosion. I love abilities with potential higher than expected payoff; it's basically gambling about whether or not the opponents will ignore it and die because they're dumb.

      The person with comfy on KO should get extended time out, and the enemy team for KOing comfy should get a little extra experience. Or comfy should take the portion of the damage falling the mon attached, hence giving enemies a chance to KO comfy, so it won't have invincibility on attaching.

    I was going to say Greedent, but honestly, I think Snorlax deserves a rework. It's flail moveset is just terrible, turning it into a wannabe all-rounder that provides less results than the average all-rounder or even defenders that are pretty much all-rounders. Overall Snorlax doesn't provide as good of a result vs nearly all other defenders whether that is in supporting damage or support with cc.
    I think flail should be entiretly replaced ala mr mime with guard swap, yawn should get a small rework, block should get reworked, and heavy slam could probably be changed a bit too.
