Owen Ward
gym leaders/elite four with multiple of the same pokemon
Alexander Foster
Triple Battles and Rotation.
They meant less pokemon added
Sebastian Stewart
single use TMs suck, especially in nuzlockes
pokeride is great, love that integration in S/M moreso than calling a random bidoof in BDSP
is that an actual tradeoff?
Logan Harris

t. ferrothorn fan
Xavier Smith
i just don't like the idea of any pokemon magically getting perfect coverage on whatever you want
Leo Ward
from a competitive standpoint, removing pursuit is full-retard. But I don't really care about that since I haven't bothered with competitive since Gen 5.
In-game it doesn't really matter though since they haven't improved the braindead AI after 20 years, and the AI still never bothers switching out.
Nathaniel Lopez
i think its fine because you can only pick one and it's very weak
Angel Foster
>>hidden power
>>pursuit
I know this is bait but I wanna know if there's any possible argument that removing these is a good thing
Liam Young
Yes, something added means less of something else
Grayson Parker
who says the team working on battle modes is the same as the design team making mons?
i don't see sky battles (which sucked) taking budget away from adding tyrunt and amaura
Luke Sanchez
user, gen 5 introduced the most pokemon in the series, in addition to those two formats
Cameron Morales
It removed tons
Lucas Watson
The issue is that special attackers need it for coverage. Think about your typical physical attacker and how every single one under the sun gets access to stuff like earthquake, rock slide, maybe elemental punches, etc. Basically the only physical attackers with shit movepools are quadrupedal physical fire/electric types like flareon and zebstrika. Meanwhile special attackers, without hidden power, are usually lucky to get ANYTHING non-stab for coverage at all.
Jaxon Morales
No it didn't? You could still transfer anything to gen 5?
Sebastian Evans
It clearly did. Never-ending the systems can't handle it after ds
Owen Lopez
Caves
What a fucking dogshit concept I don't get why they were a thing for so long.
Easton Davis
Pretty sure the Pursuit point is just bait. As for HP it looks like bad design on paper but in practice it wasn't really common because HP is deadweight if you don't run into whatever is 4x weak to it. And that's especially a problem for VGC where moveslots are so heavily contested because everything has to run a doubles-centric move or two.
Now the Smogon metas are a different story but usually the people trolling over HP usually shit on Smogon, so.
Colton Thomas
Completely untrue, they were added in Generation 5, which introduced the most pokemon out of any other generation.
Jaxon Nelson
Trash opinion.
Hunter Carter
Retard they're continuing existence is drain on dev
Caleb Mitchell
>hidden power
>pursuit
Remember these moves are just a result of Moveit and could be back for SV while Brine may be gone etc.
ALSO
Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl
Hidden Power is usable and functions as it did in previous generations.
