right. so here's my takes: recovery - this is a necessity on the mon. we want to be able to survive in the long term to get the most use out of beak blast, and recovery is by far the easiest way to do that. making this mon work without recovery would be very difficult and would probably...

you could also have 2 clawitzers, or 2 galarian slowbros. or 2 gmax inteleons. or 2 blastoises, that's 4 guns, 6 if you mega, and something like 3 dozen if you gigantamax

wait did they change that? i could've sworn anyway, expanding on wonder skin, here are the relevant moves that you'll see in cap that are affected by it: taunt toxic will-o-wisp thunder wave glare trick/switcheroo encore parting shot strength sap this list is pretty much exhaustive, anything...

i kind of jumped the gun on this one, sorry about that, but now i am formally submitting thermal exchange. most of the justification for it has already been stated earlier, but boiling it down: it mitigates 37's weakness to burn, which is probably the most common status it'll be encountering...

since there's no direct way to discourage non-contact moves at large (you can discourage special moves but there are like 3 options there and they're all non-starters for some reason or other), i think the best avenue of discouraging non-contact moves is to lean one of two ways: abilities that...
