So no love for Motor Drive? Noone else has mentioned anything. I don't see whats wrong with it... it creates a lot of risky situations for both sides, with the benefit being the same goal as Weak Armor, whilst not being superior or inferior. As for achieving a balance between itself and Illusion- you lose an overall paralysis immunity and the potential to sweep with a speed boost to gain the ability to completely pull the wool over your opponents eyes and score a crucial KO- both abilities are tied with their own risks- Illusion can be rendered ultimately useless once damage has been dealt, while Motor Drive has to predict EXACTLY an electric move to get its boost- predict wrong and its game over for our bug. And can you run the same sorts of sets with both abilities? Of course- however, the weay they would play would be different- Illusion would work as probably the wiliest and riskiest wallbreaker OU has to offer, whereas Motor Drive would run almost exactly the same as our Weak Armor sets, which, as I've stated, both have their own benefits and drawbacks.

As far is I'm concerned, "Triality" is achieved.
