Maybe this is just because I’ve literally never played pokemon, but I wasn’t aware that there was a similar pokemon passive.
The issue is that A). It is often ohko’d once its HG has been used up, and B). It takes a ridiculous number of turns to start sweeping. To quote better players than me
Honestly, this feels like a WIP HI monster that they ported over with minimal changes. It’s balanced for a meta with no fast OHKO’s, no piercing, very few good stun monsters, and no easy way to bypass protectors. Right now, it finds itself in a meta where relying on a monster to survive 300 TU’s is a stretch, let alone 630, stun hard-counters crescendo strike spam, GT is hard to sustain, and protect has been nerfed to ridiculous extents.
It needs not only a buff overall, but also a respec to be less reliant on styles of support that are becoming less viable by the day. Thank you for coming to my TED talk
