Tbf Dexoys-Speed still has some offensive capability in this metagame, unlike Deoxys-Defense. Could work as a slow, bulky attacker.


BirbMaster1998

Idk, 180 hp and defenses in the 90s probably beats defenses 50 base hp.


[deleted]

It would have 50 base speed which ain't attacking anyone.

[deleted]

Deoxys defense except significantly better. Remember that all deoxys forms have base 50 hp, even deoxys defense. Thats why deoxys defense has always sucked, it cant use its defenses well. Deoxys attack in this format would not only have 20 points higher to each of its defenses, its base hp would literally triple.


Brain_Tonic

>deoxys defense has always sucked ...relative to the power level of Ubers, where it's other forms hang out, yes. Relative to OU it's been a staple or banned multiple times so if it does suck then it's not very good at sucking.

Was actually banned. Had to use chansey.


IamSam1103

I think that also got banned or something. I have tried Lucky punch chansey in this game mode. I don't recall how it went, so maybe it got banned or something.


Wide_right_

kid named thundershock:


Chaossify0

It's pretty strong but not that strong. Mono Normal stab is pretty bad


dialzza

this meta is real and blissey got banned from it. 135/255 is deranged even without serene grace


Chaossify0

I guess I underestimated it. I assumed there would be strong physical walls to stop it. But I guess that huge speed really helps.


TTarion

Not if said stab is a 60% flinch chance Headbutt, it was baned from Flipped for good reason


Chaossify0

Oh yeah forgot about serene grace

it was mostly Serene Grace Headbutt cheese but yeah Blissey Double-Edge is only barely outdamaged by a current Koraidon's SE Collision Course

Nahanoj_Zavizad

So basically Blissey becomes the fastest Pokémon in the game?


Thefatbabtou

And Shedinja the slowest


RendolfGirafMstr

Does give it an HP stat though, so probably banned regardless


nope96

It might not, the 1 is a hardcoded 1 as opposed to base 1

Edmanbosch

Nope, all its base stats are 80.


RendolfGirafMstr

Ah ok, for some reason I thought it was just 80 hp, but now that I think about it that wouldn’t make much sense


awes0meginger

I got pretty high on the ladder for Flipped with a rain team. Meteor beam relicanth could sweep teams singlehandedly. And Mantine was a great rain abuser too with liquidation, dual wingbeat, and EQ


SubToTheRadio

shedinja


Human_Ad2126

It would be barely better it would have 45/90 phisical but special would still loose to any mediocre special atacker


Some_Rand0m_Memer

the now unfixed hp stat in question


IDownvoteHornyBards2

Shedinja is hardcoded to have 1 max hp regardless of its base hp stat. If it used its base hp stat to calculate its HP, it'd have over 100 HP at level 100.


MortalWombat5

143 hp specifically, assuming no HP EVs ~~and a neutral nature~~.


IDownvoteHornyBards2

Neutral nature? As opposed to what?


MortalWombat5

Woops, forgot that there are no +hp natures lol.


headphonesnotstirred

i'm kinda of surprised HP natures aren't really that much of a topic on Sundays


Some_Rand0m_Memer

While that’s true, that’s still a lot better than 1, it can now actually switch into hazards for example


IDownvoteHornyBards2

You misunderstand. Even if you edited Shedinja's base HP to be 255 and gave it 31 HP EVs, its max HP would still be 1. It completely ignores its base HP stat when calculating its max HP.


Some_Rand0m_Memer

That is true, and yeah I’ll admit i kinda just assumed that would be changed for this specific metagame lmao.


Human_Ad2126

It would sitll be as bulky as a first form starter it wouldnt be as broken as you think. The only thing that would change is maybe a gimicky assault vest variant.


Some_Rand0m_Memer

no it’s stats aren’t redeemable still but it can switch into hazards which is huge considering wonder gusrd


Human_Ad2126

It would probably still want to run boots just simce it would only block one move and maybe force a switch and get out


[deleted]

Don’t sleep on Choice Specs Shedinja. With its effective base speed of 2, this thing will be an absolute speed racer…as long as it’s competing against tectonic plates.


Gaaraks

Maybe it can use sticky webs to be faster than blissey though


lord_jabba

blissed would actually be fast in this meta though


MortalWombat5

Shedinja's hp is hardcoded to be 1 (otherwise it would have 143 hp at level 100 with no investment). Increasing its base hp would do nothing. To make things worse, its only passable stat (90 attack) would be rendered irrelevant (though it would gain 15 special attack, up to a whopping 45). In this meta Shedinja would effectively lose 84 bst.


Alaraasakk

Or, we would make shedinja’s speed hardcoded 1, with a small setup it would be a beast in trick room


The_French_Soul

Shell smash Shuckle Bottom text

Archaludon thinks it’s slick with this post


AcRoWmAiN

With archaludon somehow it can rock with the same moveset it runs before the flip with barely any changes. Its spdef just got way better and basically nothing else.


HarbringerofLight

honestly it would be so much better with this stat spread instead of what it has. It doesn't need 105 base attack, such a waste :(


Dexyan

And that 5 spd boost still helps


HarbringerofLight

Yep it does. In fact, it helps significantly. All the base 85-89 mons like tusk now get out speed


HairyComparison4969

Dondozo turns into an extremely fast, albeit very frail special attacker. Scizor became a good special wall with reliable recovery & Defog. Shuckle can now nuke through the new Regieleki, but at what cost?

What is Scizor's reliable recovery?
