as much as i despise accuracy as a mechanic, if they made hydrapple's ability stronger it would be a problem since a lot of really broken moves are currently "balanced" with low accuracy. not missing heat waves is nice but dealing with accurate bleakwinds, sleep powders, etc would cause more harm than good
@@aldrichunfaithful3589 All of those could also happen if you're just lucky And getting two drops on the same pokemon wouldn't really matter since one is enough I think it would be good, but not game breaking
For the dondozo matchup you could swap the goth for Malamar with topsy turvy turning his +2 Omni to a -2 Omni and it would also work well with Taurus’ close combat, and if you swap fickle with Draco it would turn the -2 there to a +2
as someone who has tried to make arboliva work many times, I don't think there's much room for it in this meta. It struggles to function outside of trick room and in trick room it's now outclassed by pokemon like exeggutor (who has the same spa but can set its own tr) and ursaluna-bm (who is better for hyper voice spam)
Whats the point of supersweet syrup over regenerator on hydrapple if all the team moves hit 100% except for population bomb? Just seems like a waste and missed opportunity. I see the clear amulet on mouse but that doesnt feel like enough value, i could be flawed.
You forgot Heat Wave, the point of Supersweet Syrup was that hydrapple is already stupid bulky but with Supersweet Syrup it makes mons that are already insane without 100% accurate moves like Volcarona even more consistent and good
Im all for using Hydrapple, but this version is really mid imo, hydrapple just looks like it’s there to increase maushold’s accuracy, when it can be used a lot better with sustain like giga drain or coverage like hydro pump
I’m a simple man. I see Hydrapple being praised, I’m happy
Really starting to believe Moxie has an uncle at the back end of the Nintendo servers with some of these games lmao
I've always found it funny that a gen 8 pokemon that had a split evolution got another split and a second evo in that split evo
well it is a hydra...
Hydrapple! I wish supersweet syrup activated every time
If only

@@aldrichunfaithful3589the children(regieleki users) yearn for fully accurate zap cannon

i thought pokemon dodging bc you shout was just a story thing, i didn’t know it worked in comp too

Dondozo has unaware so the boosts don't really matter I think
@@Chibibooydoesnt matter when he receives damage but yes when doing it, also speed
On the flipside, it'd turn the enemy's evasion nerf into an evasion boost.
I love pointing this out: Malamar is also the only contrary user this gen with skill swap
The Uncle at Ninteno has been making a lot of cameos lately, let's goooo!!!
Does this mean the arbolivers can make a comeback?! (Harvest stall or blaster is acceptable)

Sorry syrup Bomb as well of course, but unless that's core it feels a waste

It's to help Volcarona's accuracy too
Hydrapple goth beats Dondozo
