seems to do pretty well.
I love doubles matches.
It has more of a rubber band feel to it. Even if you were ahead most of the match, if you get overconfident the opponent can turn it around really fast.
Not to say singles that doesn't happen, but do 15-20 good doubles matches and you see the difference from singles...
since we're on the subject of berries.
How much damage does those "If you get hit by a special/physical attack, the pokemon that attacked you gets damage"
Is it like a reverse Recoil or something
Trying to make sense about how much defense is really worth.
With everything neutral.
How much HP does 1 pt of defense protect against from a regular neutral attack?
I say Recycle isn't a good option. Its already a one-time use move. Using up yet another moveslot just to make it work again places...too much burden on trying to force it(wording it correctly?)
And once you used that Natural Gift once, be it fail or win. The opponent is going to know what...
yea, its kind of hard figuring which one I use. Usually depends on the rest of my team and I try to fill a spot.
I switch around often based on my mood with the 80bp Ice, Grass, Fighting, and to a lesser degree the 80bp Electric or Ground one.
I been using the berry for 80bp Ice and 80bp Grass with relative success with my Ninjask. It feels so good killing a specmence in the middle of the match or that silly swampert at the beginning with an unexpected move like Natural Gift.
looking at starmie's moveset.
Saw Camoflauge.
It says it changes the pokemon's type based on the environment its in.
So in Wifi, will it just change it to normal?
I like easily readable formats where your constantly updated on the status of most things.
Enjoy commentary but not when its just a paragraph of describing what just happened in the turn. Also try to insert humor into every turn takes away from the battle as well.
