>let's make Light Screen again, except it only affects one type, doesn't stay when the user switches, and also nerfs the user's own moves
yeah not really sure what they were thinking here
dogshit filler moves like this is why the move cut is justified.
Blake Lewis
the limited move pool in PLA had it's ups and downs but at least you dont have to feel all the challenge leave the match because your opponent used something stupid like this
Carter Thompson
Except moves GF had no reason to cut got cut
Earthquake isn't in PLA
Pursuit isn't in Swsh
Spider web isn't in Swsh
Why?
Asher Lee
I've used this in a couple of fights I did in runs with shitmons. Both it and mud sport are extremely situational of course, but they can ahve their uses. Not all moves have to be a mainstream consideration.
Thomas Baker
>Earthquake isn't in PLA
It's not in the game because it trivializes horde fights
Adrian Bennett
they could just make it single target like they did with all aoe moves
Blake Sullivan
Yep you're retarded. Bulldoze is supposed to hit adjacent Pokemon but it doesn't in PLA
Dominic Baker
changing entirely what the move does is effectively the same as cutting it
then there's no need to put EQ in the game, now is there?
Dominic Green
>Mud Sport now creates a Water-Grass Pledge field effect
>Water Sport now creates a Water-Fire Pledge field effect
How'd I do?
Tyler Turner
You said they were cutting shit and pointless moves. How is Earthquake a pointless move?
Daniel Adams
There'd be too much overlap with Headlong Rush.
Joshua Wilson
>changing entirely what the move does is effectively the same as cutting it
oh boy, do you remember back in R/B and G/S when earthquake was useless? Good times were they not, fucking retard?
Michael Rodriguez
see
Other moves and changes to move mechanics make it pointless.
Chase Sanders
>move two pokemon have
I accept your concession
Camden Perez
>Headlong Rush
>a move that only 2 mon can learn
>replacing EQ
I see.
Jeremiah Jackson
>How is Earthquake a pointless move?
Because Bulldoze and Headlong Rush exists already.
Eli Watson
Do you ever criticize Daddy Gamefreak?
Liam Jackson
Yes, for things that are actually worth critiquing instead of retarded shit like "WAAAAH I CAN'T USE HIDDEN POWER ON LANDORUS ANYMORE"
Nolan Davis
>Yes, for things that are actually worth critiquing
Give me some examples
>instead of retarded shit like "WAAAAH I CAN'T USE HIDDEN POWER ON LANDORUS ANYMORE"
Except more than just the pointless moves were cut.
