I don't think it necessarily has to be a defined difference. Guidelines are just that- guidelines. A starting point to making a decision. I don't think something needs to strictly break game play to be unhealthy in the context of the larger format.

I think Landorus should be treated like Deoxys and suspect tested at the support role. It really does everything- one of its best roles is checking opposing Landos with HP Ice. In a game with so much flexibility, you can have a brokemon with well over a dozen "answers".

We had a discussion about this in the #metagame-discussion discord last night. Curious what your thoughts are but with a little more depth. --- Also, can we get a Z-score for that usage statistic? Someone?

Please join the smogon discord server? You were hilarious 10 years ago and that's worth something.

any pokemon that can be used with 5 walls to actually make a good team is unfair.

playability? (in terms of being easier/harder to learn?) D/P is still fairly difficult to learn, and the addition of the new pokemon only makes the expansion slightly more difficult over the 3rd gen games. Many of the 4th gen pokes are similar to the 2nd gen in terms of stalling, where GSC had...

no pokemon are the same as any others, they're different species with differences all around. They have different stats, typings, and play potential. Rhy =/= Aggr

that's how.

oh yeah, I forgot about his nihil. whoops. I still recall boyd doing a lot of damage to him, oddly.

yeah, I used urvan w/ dragonfoe on boyd, w/ A support w/ mia for the attack boost. came out nicely.

perhaps I got them mixed up. Oh well, I'm doing another run now.

I did not crit, I had other characters do more damage (boyd and shinon). I used no battle saves.

that's right, her cap is 30, which becomes 35 before that chapter, allowing you to double attack. just like her 24 defense becomes 29, which becomes 32 with her support with sanaki, which is just enough for her to survive with 2 HP left. I'm still taping it when I get there, don't worry.

I guess I'll have to tape it then. edit: no I certainly didn't have sanaki attack deghinsea, that was just my 4-F team.

rexbolt has 95 hit, it's the rest of them that suck. I didn't use dragons either. I used: ike soren oscar boyd mia nephenee gatrie shinon zihark ilyana sanaki edit: ilyana both survives his attack and double-attacks him back.
