Why do we keep calling Earthquake Spiral "Earthquake Spiral"
I thought it was supposed to be Overconfidence.
Thanks. I'm just too lazy to find the info myself, considering the massive data and a lot of work on my plate. So it doesn't look like the moth would be too good. I was expecting something like a special DD.It learns "[M552]: Special Fire PP: 10 Power: 80 / Accuracy: 100 Effect: May increase user's Special Attack by 1 stage."
Yes, Shadow Tag is a very powerful ability, but the reason Wobbuffet was banned is because it has the perfect movepool to abuse Shadow Tag. Take a hit, Encore, Counter/Mirror Coat, and then maybe Custap Destiny Bond to take out the next victim.
Self quote cause it got lost in the page jump. Anyone have an answer?OK. I have lurked forever and I finally created an account for the release. I must know. Do we have any confirmation at all on Encourage's effects? I didn't think it would block negative effects but Hihidaruma and Wargle learn a lot of negative-effect moves and not that many with normal secondary effects. Do we know for sure whether or not it blocks recoil and stat drops? I doubt it does, but there is evidence...
Oh God, please say that 180 power Fire-type move is some magic tutor move that only Blaziken gets.
If the "Lowers Def, SpDef and Speed" effect is correct then Speed Boost Blaziken with that and Hi Jump Kick just ate the metagame. The only thing that would stop it would be priority XD
@ WingedKnight, Encourage has to be the most discussed ability of any lol. Atm nobody really knows, I imagine it will be difficult to find out until someone actually does some tests. Serebii has some pages on Game Mechanics so he might do some tests based on the abilities, but I imagine not until after the general game stuff. Just have to wait until someone bothers to test it.

Thanks for the help. As I expected. I was convinced there was no way it would cancel negative effects. Boosted, recoil-less Brave Birds? Non-crippling Overheats? Ridiculous. But based on the fact that these moves are in the movesets of the Encourage guys, and that Hihidaruma and Wargle both share Superpower, it looks like it could be. It will be a perfectly solid ability regardless, but man, if it's true...Oh God, please say that 180 power Fire-type move is some magic tutor move that only Blaziken gets.

180 Base Power?? Where did you see this? Is it physical or special?
Well, they did give Gliscor Poison Heal...This metagame is the end of stall. Blaziken alone could demolish everything in its path.
[M557]: Physical Fire PP: 5 Power: 180 / Accuracy: 95 Effect: [E14E]
The end of the metagame is nighhhhh.
Though I imagine it'll be just for one Legendary guy to sit there touching himself while using it.
Well, they did give Gliscor Poison Heal...
Oh, I forgot to mention that Mothim got Tinted Lens. That means it is just a Yanmega with weaker stats. Maybe it'll get some use in UU?
It's effect is: "[M557]: Physical Fire PP: 5 Power: 180 / Accuracy: 95 Effect: Lower's user's Defense, Special Defense and Speed"
