Obviously it's not great, but it does some stuff if used correctly.
nyeh

I've kinda given up on trying to dissuage people from using Ambipom. It's not my cup of tea, but for some people it's theirs. Honestly, I'll just continue gaining skill via prediction every time I come across on in UU, or *shudder* in OU.
