xNalx Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Togekiss has been one of the most annoying pokemons to fight against, since he has roost, heal bell, nastly pot, air slash and among other moves that makes him a very used poke ,why can he get out of a stall by giving heal bell or roost then a nastly pot and then giving himself a sequel of air slash The problem is that a pokemon of the size of the togekiss (very HP, good defense, medium speed, sp def medium and a sp atk a little high) that holds a lot of damage and still returns an unbalanced damage with a lot of chance to give you a "RNG" (flinch, burn, Critical hit) is not very cool and with nastly Pot the damage only increases ... go your opinion I'm sorry for my english :/ Link to comment

Bubaili Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Honestly when I see the Hax clause which forbids items like King's Rock affecting Hax during battles I wonder why Togekiss Serenity Grace ability is not forbidden too. It works with the same effect. Togekiss would remain strong anyway because of its stats and move pool and it would have 30% flinch like the rest of the pokemons. xNalx, AlejandroGB and PinkLabel 3 Link to comment
gbwead Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 With the right defensive sets, dnite, aerodactyl, emolga, milotic, blissey, cryogonal and crobat can all counter togekiss very well. Link to comment
Bubaili Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 (edited) Still a flinch at 50% or over should be forbidden otherwise why not allow king's rock too? There are pokemons with inner focus as you mentioned some. They can perfectly counter it. Edited January 11, 2019 by Bubaili Link to comment

One makes Togekiss pull luck based bullshit. The other one makes everyone pull luck based bullshit. If the only other ability alternative for Kiss wasn't Hustle, which is completely worthless on it, I'd probably propose banning Serene Grace (Which would probably still cause plenty of backlash), alas Kiss plays too important of a role in the meta to force it to use Hustle and Super Luck won't be out for a while.

Bubaili Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 (edited) Quote One makes Togekiss pull luck based bullshit. => 60% The other one makes everyone pull luck based bullshit. => 10% Just saying... I honestly dont mind about Togekiss in pvp, i got ways to deal with but the hax clause doesnt make any sense if we keep togekiss with serena grace. Besides on Pokemmo it's not the first time one pokemon in particular got nerfed (hi Draco meteor hydreigon) Edited January 11, 2019 by Bubaili Link to comment

razimove Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 nasty plot is the problem for you? And here I am ranting about how cancerous it is to fight scarf togekiss. Link to comment
FlaFlaPT Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 If you get annoyed by nasty plot toge with heal bell, then you should try running less stall/fat teams because the whole purpose of that set isn't to hax through, is to destroy stall. I feel like most people of this meta think "I'll use 3 to 4 fat mons and I'll do fine" which strengthens this set. The scarf set is the brainless I'll just hax through set, which works great vs offense and loses power as the opposing team gets fatter because requires more coin flips to ko. gbwead, razimove, Chjul19 and 1 other 4 Link to comment

foyone Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 what about nerf air slash from %30 flinch to %20? xNalx and RayUwU 2 Link to comment

Then you will nerf any Pokémon that learns Air Slash, the move isn't the issue suggest by the OP. It is the Pokemon + the ability + the move. Just use scarf Tyranitar and ez pz dead. Link to comment
RayUwU Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Nerf Air slash or togekiss? why not? The dragons are nerfs (hydre without Draco Meteor and Outrage 90 of 120, Knock Off with 20 of 65 in 6ta gen and maybe more idk. xNalx 1 Link to comment
gbwead Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Those are not technically nerfs (outrage and knock off). The reason why outrage is at 90 bp and knock off at 20 is because otherwise we would end up with some insanely powerful mons against which there would be little to no counter play. That's not the case when it comes to Togekiss and/or Air Slash; there are numerous ways to deal with Togekiss no matter how strong or versatile it may be. RayUwU 1 Link to comment

RayUwU Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Of course there are many ways to deal with them, in the same way with Hydre plus Cometa Draco after all there is a drop of 2 levels, same with dragonite steels pokes (Skarmory,Ferrothorn, Bronzong or faster pokes type dragon/ice, prority included). The problem no is a counter for togekiss, the problem is the broken hab plus move, if you lose your poke ¨counter¨ or kiss flich any turn u poke ¨counter¨, kiss its a poke so bulk, with a decent speed and a lot of skill (luck), too unfair in my opinion, thing for which other pokes have been banned (Dugtrio). . foyone 1 Link to comment
