    196+ Atk Life Orb Houndour Pursuit vs. 196 HP / 196+ Def Eviolite Misdreavus: 10-16 (40 - 64%) -- 12.1% chance to 2HKO

     

    This is the most damage Houndour can do but not to mention how stupid + Attack Houndour is, let's have a more realistic calc.

     

    0 Atk Houndour Pursuit vs. 196 HP / 196+ Def Eviolite Misdreavus: 6-8 (24 - 32%) -- 22.8% chance to 4HKO

    0 Atk Life Orb Houndour Pursuit vs. 196 HP / 196+ Def Eviolite Misdreavus: 8-10 (32 - 40%) -- 17.6% chance to 3HKO

     

    196 SpA Life Orb Houndour Dark Pulse vs. 196 HP / 0 SpD Eviolite Misdreavus: 18-23 (72 - 92%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

    196 SpA Life Orb Houndour Dark Pulse vs. +1 196 HP / 0 SpD Eviolite Misdreavus: 16-18 (64 - 72%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

     

    Meanwhile:

     

    76 SpA Misdreavus Hidden Power Fighting vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Houndour: 12-16 (63.1 - 84.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

    76 SpA Misdreavus Thunderbolt vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Houndour: 10-12 (52.6 - 63.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

     

    I wouldn't even switch out Misdreavus against Houndour because it's not even a bad 1v1 matchup for it. Scarf Pursuit is nowhere near a reliable 2HKO, Misdreavus can be faster. If you don't wanna run HP Fighting even Thunderbolt will do the job.

    what about the move beat up? dark typing and also the chance to break any subs and then ko

    I stopped farming this game a while ago and I never had any highest tier genderless mons so I personally didn't lose much anything at all because of this update so put this to "personal bias" all I fucking care... but I understand all the people who aren't too thrilled about the fact their things they used countless resources are now worthless. The biggest thing that baffles me is the lack of consistency about all of this artificially changed economy balance what comes to both genderless breeding and Hidden Power comps.

     

    Just because people asked easy genderless breeding before and now we get it 2 years later (something that COULD have been implemented the very moment it was evident that something is unbalanced) doesn't mean that "lol you have your fix now, don't complain scrublords". Why was there a sudden need for such a 180 to this mechanic? When the prior genderless breeding was first introduced,everyone obviously knew what that would result in - and that's incredibly hard to obtain highest tier genderless mons. And rather than fixing it immediately it's evident that it's unbalanced, the change happens after what.... 2 years?

     

    About Gems being able to change Hidden Power to pre-existing mons - I absolutely love the fact it's implemented. But it also seems like a very weird 180 turn to me. Prior Hidden Power comps were actually overprotected when the HP changer NPC became a thing. Rather than having a reasonable 0-1 changes in IVs to get a desired HP, it was demanded that you would really have to pay for this feature with the expense of your IVs just so that the prior HP comps wouldn't become useless.

     

    Just for the record, I'm not talking about every economy changing feature there is in the game. Only the ones that are artificially changeable. Some of the economy changes are inevitable, a side effect to new introduced main mechanics. That's fine, it happens. But I'm not buying the argument at all that "if it overall benefits the game, you can't be pissed". You absolutely can be. Mechanics that are artificially changeable should have some consistency in order to keep the playerbase to feel like at least something about this game is fair.

    very well said i think. changes are a part of any game although in genderless case a good genderless for comp cost maybe 2.5m which is say 2.5 pokes normal so this made it more challenging and meant you actually had to try hard for me rather than making it so easy both genderless and hidden power that there is no advantage. those who love and play the game alot dont get any benefit from this update which is a shame and i hope they implement something back in to reward those who play the game more rather than just make the game easy and boring

    I feel you and maybe you also have been around three years ago when something similar (possibly worse) happened with the introduction of the current breeding system.
    It also felt like punishment but in retrospective I believe it was necessary and also made breeding more predictable/les luck based just as the new system does for genderless species - and hopefully this update will also be judged as beneficial when regarded retrospectively.

    On the bright side: In contrast to a total wipe 'to even out the odds' we older players don't loose everything but a part of our resources.
    You still retain a lot of advantages over newer players - not only the still valid comps you might have, shinies, money, items, ... but most importantly the knowledge you gathered
    Knowledge on how to farm, on PvP, gaining money etc...

    yes to most people this might be true im not worried about the money side of it thats gone so what its not real. however my main goal in game was breeding the more difficult comps ditto breeds hidden power pokemon and that is basically all i did. yes i do have some shinies but only 4 and i was there for last update which happened more in the beining of the game and i think it had less of a total impact although did affect a few. im not being bad to the game i use to love it but it has hit me hard as my boxes are full of stuff which is now considered worthless when it was millions within a 2 hour update. i just wish if they ever had this plan that they did it during that time of 3 years ago. to go from me being a very active member in my team making all the harder breeds and helping them all out i didnt do it for profit i did it for fun and what it cost me to make for them. so now my account stands at 1.5m and no major things i can sell to make up enough to even make a dent in what needs fixing. i dont want people thinking im being over dramatic as im quite a laid back person, but the update has left me being almost totally broke, and nothing to show for 4 years playing. im sure im not the only one but im possibly one of the worse effected by this as this was 95% of my game gone.
