0 Quakkz Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 i actually like this idea - has been forever since i last used a macho brace Link to comment
0 Takens Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Oh hell no! Most of the players have way limited time to keep doing this kind of stuff to the items. GaloL48, Kijigo and Ultrajesus 1 2 Link to comment

When was the last time you've used a macho brace? Usually when I EV train I get a single Pokemon that knows Sweet Scent and a spread move with 5 other Pokemons I want to EV train. Slap on Exp.Share in all 5 and now they all get EV. I've never actually used a Macho Brace so changing it so it has some uses now would be good. Link to comment

I can see wild Machoke holding those Macho Braces and people using them to EV Train. I feel that the items that are consumable are great picks. As long as you're not a competitive item (Leftovers, Life Orb, etc), Type Boost Item (Mystic Water, Dragon Fang, etc), or an Exp. Share. It would breathe new life for this item, but the EV Trainer may struggle to find business since it may be faster to do the job yourself. Spoiler For any EV Trainers that are scared of such a suggestion, you don't need to worry. There are still plenty of people out there who do not want to EV Train their own pokemon. However, the only thing that is going to change is your price. To stay competitive, you may need to drop your price below 10k since EV Training would have a low barrier to entry. Edited February 10, 2020 by Bestfriends Added the word "Wild" to make more sense for Machoke. DibzAgain 1 Link to comment
0 Raichuforyou Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 I've always liked a good middle of the road suggestion that is applicable to the amulet coin as well to make anything like this run on a per-battle basis. Consumable item supporters usually really like how much more efficient these items can become if you use them right, and permanent hold supporters really like how relaxed it is to use the item and the ability to tab out and do other things if your game is open. Per-battle satisfies both of these camps, while still turning the macho the brace into a new farm-able item that encourages economic activity. Bestfriends 1 Link to comment

0 shiningluck Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 I don't like this idea tho, surely if applied, EVs farming will be faster (don't have to switch the EV trained mon to the sweeper), but it's will be a waste, most of the case, you don't need to spend the whole 1 hour just to EV trained a team yourself (mostly some of them, 2- 3 mons each time I guess), which mean the remaining time (not used up) will go to waste. This idea only benefical to those running EV training service, 'cuz they will deal with their huge amount of orders faster this way. Link to comment

Share instead of Brace, and well, save up half the amount of Leppa needed. Link to comment

I'm pretty sure you would be losing time in some cases by doing this with the current system just due to the swapping animation and having to deal with 5 Pokemon's attack animations. I'm pretty sure it's just better to be leading with 1 sweeper and then whatever amount of XP share'd Pokemon you want. It's maybe a different story if you're wanting to level up just this one Pokemon. For for bulk EVing, you probably don't want to do this. Link to comment

Oh that won't be a problem to me, most of the time, their attack just "have no use at all" since I swap to the immune sweeper, and the time, won't be slower than your way, just like I said, one horde of mine bear the EV amount equal to 2 of yours. You have a point if the number of mons needed to be EVed is big, then manually switching like my way make it more tiring in the long way, but in my case, my number is small, so it's works.

Sure your 1 horde = 2 of ours, but you're probably taking longer, with the swapping then animations. Doesn't make and sense at all Link to comment

(x5) --> That's 5 notifications, and with 2 hordes to make up to my one horde, will take you 10 notifications. b) This is my screen: - Turn 1: xx attacks failed (x5) - Turn 2: xx fainted!
