what are you talking about they buffed HP to shit and back sonZapdos loses heat wave and tailwind. Also, weakened Hidden Power.
I thought a male Dragonite can learn Extreme Speed? I thought it was possible to breed it onto new Dratini's with scale and such.Eh, a personal gripe is that Dragonite lost access to Extreme Speed. Not a big deal for most I imagine but it was always a favorite of mine with him.
No, Hidden Power got nerfed from a maximum 70 BP to a fixed 60 BP. For Pokemon who don't have access to Technician, this is a significant nerf. For the few Pokemon that have access to Technician and use Hidden Power (ie Roserade), this is a buff.what are you talking about they buffed HP to shit and back son
I just tested, and Honchkrow doesn't get superpower. As far as I'm concerned, he's benched until bank time.It can't get both Mach Punch and Drain Punch now either, right?
Honchkrow unable to get Heat Wave (or Superpower?) is annoying.
they never really did, considering that like, 20 or so wish chanceys ever even existed legitimately. i seriously doubt wish blisseys will be transferable considering the rather small chance that any legitimate users of the move still actually are around.Blissey / Chansey have no legal access for Wish currently.
Hippowdon learns Stealth Rock via egg move from Smeargle.
Do you think their gameshark in emerald really cares?they never really did, considering that like, 20 or so wish chanceys ever even existed legitimately. i seriously doubt wish blisseys will be transferable considering the rather small chance that any legitimate users of the move still actually are around.
Tell me one pokemon that would be using HP that didn't already have technician.No, Hidden Power got nerfed from a maximum 70 BP to a fixed 60 BP.

Not really, one could of mess around with the IVs before to get 59-60 hidden powers (59 did less IV damage).No, Hidden Power got nerfed from a maximum 70 BP to a fixed 60 BP.

Pretty much like all special attackers with movepool problems: Jolteon, Alakazam, ect.Tell me one pokemon that would be using HP that didn't already have technician.
It is the smallest of buffs for technician users. It means they may be able to have perfect Iv's and it's quicker to breed.No, Hidden Power got nerfed from a maximum 70 BP to a fixed 60 BP.

Lets see...Rotom, Latios, Thundurus, Landorus (special set), Zapdos, Politoed, some Eeveelutions, Abomasnow, Salamence off the top of my head. And Im talking VGC here too; top tier players in VGC make heavy use of Hidden Power for coverage. Note that none of those mons have Technician.Tell me one pokemon that would be using HP that didn't already have technician.
Well, there's Persian. I actually did use Persian's special-attacking Techniset in NU last gen, Water Pulse / Hidden Power / Swift / Fake Out... something like that. Sadly Persian isn't even out until Pokebank arrives.Really though, aside from Mr. Mime and Roserade, I can't think of any Hidden Power users that have Technician, and even then Mr. Mime has the movepool to not resort to that while Roserade can have 4MSS due to its immense support movepool.
Aerodactly has better things to be doing, like Mega Evolving and wrecking everything with its Tough Claws boosted attacks, insane speed and good bulk.Well, there's Persian.

Since I've been working with Bisharp, it's really disappointing that he loses access to Knock Off and SR until December, although he certainly doesn't miss SR as much as Aerodactyl does. Aero would make a great lead if he still had SR access!
Oh, I must have missed that change. I just assumed they both had to come from a male, like before.With the breeding changes it should be able to, they're both egg moves right? So you just have to breed Drain Punch onto a Conkeldurr female and then breed Mach Punch onto that Conkeldurr and you'll end up with both.
Everyone had the option to use 60 BP HP on Technician users in past gens but few people did. I don't think it's as big as a boost as it seems to be.It is the smallest of buffs for technician users.
not only that, but acrobatics is weaker because flying gem isnt on cart, meaning you need to use a berry to get the double damageWell scizor lost Super power , so people actually use the acrobatics or the roost variation of SD a lot more than they should, which ofc is only good news for magnezones out there.
Yes, I completely agree. It is only a buff, because it is easier to get the right IV's and you don't have to waste IV's to lower your HP power. Like I said, the smallest of buffs, but a buff nonethelessEveryone had the option to use 60 BP HP on Technician users in past gens but few people did.

I'm running Brick Brake instead... i was about to mention this for Scizor, it's true that is one of the Fary Slayer but Super power is missed :/Well scizor lost Super power , so people actually use the acrobatics or the roost variation of SD a lot more than they should, which ofc is only good news for magnezones out there.
You guys forgot about Hitmonchan like that? How did you get those moves on Conk back in Gen 5? Wasting Tutors?It can't get both Mach Punch and Drain Punch now either, right?
To lose something, you have to have something to begin with...Metagross pretty much lost everything. No Ice Punch, Thunder Punch, or Zen Headbutt hurts and Iron Head, IMO, is better than Meteor Mash now that it only has 90 BP. Meteor Mash/EQ/Bullet Punch/random filler move is the best it can do right now.
No you can get both; Drain Punch from Meinfoo and Mach from HitmonchanIt can't get both Mach Punch and Drain Punch now either, right?
