🤔

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:17 AM nintendo

gigantamax is worse but you aren't allowed to use it

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:17 AM nintendo

It's generally worse

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:17 AM nintendo

is this really just because of duraludon and butterfree?

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:17 AM nintendo

Just because the only difference is the g-max move

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:18 AM nintendo

Maybe gengar? Trapping is only kind of good when you're working with limited turns

Dan K. Meme Nov 30, 2019 2:18 AM nintendo

G-Max Depletion doesnt seem that good

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:18 AM nintendo

Not like the normal max ghost is useful

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:18 AM nintendo

hazards are so infrequently used in vgc, and rapid spin is good now

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:18 AM nintendo

Excadrill is basically S tier

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:18 AM nintendo

until it gets tapped by dracovish

Dan K. Meme Nov 30, 2019 2:18 AM nintendo

i didnt know we were back in gen 6 meta

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:19 AM nintendo

I think dragapult will be up there with him

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:19 AM nintendo

You mean gen 5

Dan K. Meme Nov 30, 2019 2:19 AM nintendo

both

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:19 AM nintendo

Gen 6 was lando and heatran as the s tiers

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:20 AM nintendo

is excadril only popular because of the sand speed boost?

Dan K. Meme Nov 30, 2019 2:20 AM nintendo

still he was pretty prevalent in gen 6

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:20 AM nintendo

No, excadrill is just a good mon

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:20 AM nintendo

He was, yeah

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:21 AM nintendo

I liked using the spdef set with mold breaker

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:21 AM nintendo

won't he die to dracovish in one shot if he loses the speed war?

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:21 AM nintendo

The most common ones were sand rush sd and scarfed mold breaker

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:22 AM nintendo

Due to sand rush?

Dan K. Meme Nov 30, 2019 2:22 AM nintendo

i think excadrill will almost always win with speed against dracovish

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:22 AM nintendo

Drill is much faster

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:22 AM nintendo

what about with tailwind?

Dan K. Meme Nov 30, 2019 2:22 AM nintendo

okay well duh

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:23 AM nintendo

And really, I think strong jaw is just the best set for dracovish

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:23 AM nintendo

of course

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:23 AM nintendo

Giving weather abilities to the fossils is bizarre

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:23 AM nintendo

though you could sand rush it to try to beat excadrill

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:24 AM nintendo

very close base speeds

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:24 AM nintendo

It'd have to be an admant drill vs jolly vish

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:24 AM nintendo

or scarfed vish vs not scarfed drill

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:25 AM nintendo

Yes okay, you have made the most optimal set

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:26 AM nintendo

That's the another problem with the fossils, dynamax isn't the best with them

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:26 AM nintendo

or just use the cotton ball and tail wind

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:26 AM nintendo

maybe that will be the most overused pokemon

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:27 AM nintendo

I've seen a bunch of scarfed ones on rain

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:27 AM nintendo

i'm pretty sure both pro players i've been following use cottonee a ton

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:28 AM nintendo

I hate the meta being dominated by all these ugly things

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:28 AM nintendo

impdick doesn't learn beatup

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:28 AM nintendo

rip alternate prankster user

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:28 AM nintendo

Boltund and dubwool are just so unassuming in comparison

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:29 AM nintendo

Whimsicott is better for that anyway

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:30 AM nintendo

looks like the useful things grimmsnarl can do can also be done by whimsicott

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:31 AM nintendo

I prefer that for a bulk up set, and idk if it's the best at pulling it off

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:31 AM nintendo

Maybe spdef resttalk

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:31 AM nintendo

Since it'll have priority on healing, raising its defense, and on any move pulled from sleep talk

Dan K. Meme Nov 30, 2019 2:33 AM nintendo

okay catching Zacian is actually hell

Dan K. Meme Nov 30, 2019 2:33 AM nintendo

i might actually have to master ball this fuck

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:34 AM nintendo

just quickball

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:34 AM nintendo

Seems like every generation game freak releases an overpowered steel/fairy

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:35 AM nintendo

Klefki pog4

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:35 AM nintendo

Prankster swagger was hell

Dan K. Meme Nov 30, 2019 2:35 AM nintendo

Magearna

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:35 AM nintendo

yeah but klefki wasn't banned by VGC

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:35 AM nintendo

Doubles is completely different

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:35 AM nintendo

yes

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:36 AM nintendo

Snorlax is banned but deoxys-attack is allowed

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:36 AM nintendo

it makes the rock paper scissors slightly more complicated

Gent Nov 30, 2019 2:36 AM nintendo

I feel like it introduces a lot more luck though

grimmsnarl is why gmax is banned

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:43 PM nintendo

looked at nintendo switch reviews for some reason

taxes Nov 30, 2019 2:44 PM nintendo

i mean

taxes Nov 30, 2019 2:44 PM nintendo

a lot of that is correct

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:47 PM nintendo

first one is an industry issue not Nintendo's fault second why are you playing minecraft on switch online third, original zelda is on switch

taxes Nov 30, 2019 2:47 PM nintendo

uh

taxes Nov 30, 2019 2:47 PM nintendo

first one is partially a nintendo fault

taxes Nov 30, 2019 2:48 PM nintendo

I guess pokemon is the big glaring one

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:48 PM nintendo

this review is from august

taxes Nov 30, 2019 2:48 PM nintendo

oh

taxes Nov 30, 2019 2:48 PM nintendo

lol

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:49 PM nintendo

i don't think complaining about online is appropriate for a review of the console in general

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:49 PM nintendo

most games they release aren't really online oriented

taxes Nov 30, 2019 2:50 PM nintendo

no its still very important

legorhin Nov 30, 2019 2:50 PM nintendo

yes but this is a better place to complain
