    Judgement is actually used somewhat commonly in Balanced Hackmons, where ghost types with the ability Normalize run around entraining it onto everybody

    Multi-attack having 20 extra base power just rubs me the wrong way. No idea why but that rubs me the wrong way

    • @MattBudYT
      @MattBudYT  19 днів тому +47

      Considering the plates boost Judgement to 120 power (in addition to any moves of their typing) and the memories don’t, I think it’s more than fair.
      Silvally having the base 90 Multi Attack in Gen 7 rubbed me the wrong way😂

      @MattBudYT personally I would rather have Silvally at 100 and Arceus at 120 or something.
      Thanks to current powercreep the signature moves of previous legendaries and mythicals are becoming less and less relevant. A buff to moves like Spatial Rend, Roar of time, etc... is needed

      Seems kind of weird that Silvally's technique is more powerful than Arceus's, but Judgement is already kind of underpowered anyway. Oooh, not like it would impact VGC, but what if Judgement ignored redirection?

    Man, if Dancer worked on cartridge, Doubles would just be Oricorio+Dancer leads for both parties that just end when the Oricorios have maxed out the 3 stats then stopped, which is crafty on GameFreak's part.

    Battle revolution required multitype to have an appropriate plate. When I’d battle my siblings, I’d always bring Mew and Ditto to steal their Arceus, but they’d be holding different plates and changed type

    Saw a fun mechanic on ladder in a streamers chat right before the GC. So if you use focus punch and then after you, it'll focus up first, after you second, then attack third.

  • @LeifMjelve-w1g

    Something that I found out when play random Hackmons is that if a Pokémon with dancer switches into a dance move and uses it, any turn 1 moves will fail (fake out, first impression). Normally this wouldn't matter at all, because Oricorio doesn't get any of those. However, if a Pokémon with one of those moves switches in on a move like entrainment, gets the dancer ability, and then another Pokémon on the field uses a dancing move, their first turn moves will fail. (Alternatively you could just skip the setup by just playing in Hackmons but whatever)

      I don't think so. I don't have those old gen games to test old mechanics anymore unfortunately :(
      I also haven't bought an actual game since generation 7 funnily enough so I don't have access to them as of now.
