Absolutely not. Arm thrust has mantained his 15 BP per hit, so 15*5=75. It's as strong as brick break. CC sits confortably at 120.Does arm thrust with Skill Link become stronger then CC?

Oh wow that is terrible then I was hoping it would be better. Is that stab included?Absolutely not. Arm thrust has mantained his 15 BP per hit, so 15*5=75. It's as strong as brick break. CC sits confortably at 120.
Factoring stab in:Oh wow that is terrible then I was hoping it would be better. Is that stab included?
The loss of power is *massive*, though. I don't see how you can justify dropping from 120 BP to 75 BP on a Pokémon designed to bust open walls and defensive mons. An obvious example:I don't see the point in running close combat instead of arm thrust. Sure CC is more powerful but since with this mega Heracross has got very good bulk lowering it seems a bit counterproductive imo. I think the loss of power is worth the increase in longevity, adding to it the always nice utility of breaking shashes and subs.
Arm Thrust breaks Subs, Brick Break breaks screens, Close Combat breaks Pokemon. There's only one good choice out of the three here.I do want to point out that while Arm Thrust can break Substitutes, Brick Break has the same base power and can break Screens.
Hm... I'm going to go with Focus Blast.Arm Thrust breaks Subs, Brick Break breaks screens, Close Combat breaks Pokemon. There's only one good choice out of the three here.
Tbh I feel comments like this are stupid, there's very little things that wouldn't benefit from +2 Atk/SpA/Spe, baton passing boosts is simply not a reliable/good strategy outside of full bp.I can vouch for the Gorebyss as an outstanding partner.
Baton passing is not easy, but if you know how to play it correctly, and find the right moment to start doing so... I've found some consistency with it at the higher ladder.Tbh I feel comments like this are stupid, there's very little things that wouldn't benefit from +2 Atk/SpA/Spe, baton passing boosts is simply not a reliable/good strategy outside of full bp.
