what's the stat spread look like

Already has great physical defense, with lefties and boosted spdef nothing really kills it

ah yeah I figured

so it's like

On paper it’s actually weaker

if you inverted snorlax

Facade with guts boost hits way harder than blood moon

right but that's like

all in one and done fuck your life up

just a big beat stick

bloodmoon is generally better at setting up and staying in instead of just getting a few cheeky frags and then running out of tempo

at least that's what I figure

what's that ability do anyways

mind's eye

Keen eye + scrappy

wow okay what the fuck

So blood moon isn’t spammable, but it kills everything

yeah I looked at wiki

keen eye scrappy and lock-on

And the only switch-in, gholdengo, can be picked off with vacuum wave

it hits ghosts ignores bonus evasion AND can't be accuracy lowered

Corviknight is not a switch in since you setup on that

so the question is what do you do

and the answer seems to be that you die

The fact that it’s slow still means you should have a few ways of stopping it

send in a fast boy who has psycho shift

you get the calm mind stacks

You mean psych up?

I may have said the wrong move but you know the one that copies stat changes

yeah

psych up

that's my idea at least I imagine that it is not possible

Also, it can basically one-shot all the unaware mons in the game

Unlike gambit

base stats cannon yes

Somehow empoleon made the cut for OU

all of this

tempo

reminds me of an idea I had for like

ancient unova golett golurk

steam mechs fire/steel

using fire moves stacks boost to your higher offense but if you go too far you explode

there's a neurodivergent 4 year old in my head and he really very much likes trains and other large machinery

Based

There is zero hype behind this game

Idk what Nintendo is even doing with it

quickly dumping out their boring switch projects before the next console is unveiled

I bought it for the promo card it comes with
