Yeah I haven't gotten to play a ton, but the dodge/hotbox mechanics are interesting. It seems, at least early on, that if you can get some distance from your enemy a lot of melee attacks can be dodged. For projectiles, a bit of distance and circling your opponent seems to work okay. There does...

I know this is the data dump thread but I'm surprised about how little talk I've seen anywhere about how the actual battle system plays. I'm so curious about how easy it is to dodge attacks and such; in the gameplay I've seen it seems like some attacks won't hit you if you just circle your...

I know it doesn't matter as much for the main games, but bummed at some move cuts I've noticed so far. Roost is gone, as is drain punch, and rest, for this game at least.

Quick question - there are some moves listed in the pastebin as reminder moves that don't show up on serebii (mostly I'm wanting to know about shadow sneak on ceruledge). Is it really a reminder move or is it something we don't know about yet? Thank you!

I feel that this gen draining moves will be all the rage. I plan on making a team of bulkier mons with as much priority and draining moves as I can without being too extreme. Drain punch is on a lot of mons, but not too many strong Giga drain/draining kiss/leech life/parabolic charge choices

I'm liking what I see with ceruledge. Decent defenses, good attack, priority, and a 90 BP hp draining move. Not OU material or anything but still really cool

What does unknown moves mean? Was hoping ceruledge would get shadow sneak

Just give all the starters steel as a secondary typing. All of them would be great. Boom, done

I would be so happy if we finally got a good defensive fire type starter. So few good tanky fire types. He definitely looks like he'll have a lot of hp at least

Is rest in this game?

Count me in as loving ursaluna. I love bears and never really liked any of the bear pokemon too much (or mechanically they were a bit of a let down). But wow those stats - conkeldurr is one of my favorite pokemon from a gameplay pov and ursaluna has better stats across the board, and guts. I...

I'm at work so I can't check the move list, but what does grav apple and tar shot do?

Swoobat gets nasty plot now. With a base 114 speed, 77 SpA, and simple as its HA, that could actually be a big boon for it

I dunno, it has a couple things to help out. It has coil, which helps with defense and attack. Flash fire on a bug is huge for mono bug. It has fire, bug, grass, electric, dark, normal coverage with its attack stat, and water and poison with its decent SpA stat. It also has will o wisp to help...

Woof, having a hard time figuring out Toxtricity. His movepool is pretty barren. Almost exclusively electric, poison and normal moves. Only decent boosting move is shift gear, which increases his attack which is his lower attacking stat. Every time something seems like it could be good it...
