Hydreigon Draco meteor? Garchomp SD? Knock Off buff?


Recommended Posts

Sitting at 41% and 18.5% usage I don't think the dragons are starved for additional options. They're plenty powerful as is. Hell, chomp just got its HA released which makes going physdef a lot more feasible.

 

The knock off buff isn't just the base power increase, it's also increasing the damage by 1.5x when it removes an item. It's a move that very few pokemon really switch into given the absence of mega stones and Z-crystals. The dark types that would really benefit from the buff are already good. Knock off is currently a viable move in a healthy state, why buff it?

just asking to know the chances of being changed because of the changes, i see some people afraid of a more stall meta.

this will also help me to decide because I am building up a team, I was thinking of making a shiny comp reuniclus, cofagrigus or weezing. I was with great doubt between cofagrigus and weezing, and if there is a chance that knock is buffed because of these new changes coffagrigus wouldn't like it very much I think

If players start to using knock off, Gems and mons Itemless will be more common.

If they did buff it I believe it would be better to choose between one or the other. 65 base damage but not buff or 20 base damage with the 1.5x buff
