>Is a fricking legendary so low catch rate
>Isn't ice type so isn't immune to hail
>Is found in a location where it hails 90% of the time
>Will most like die because of the hail before you capture it
Unironically what the frick where they thinking, do GayFreak actually test their shitty game before releasing it?
Just change the weather with a move/ability and stop crying
just bring heal pulse. Still less annoying than roaming legends
it is a roaming legend, but 3d
>what do you mean I have to incorporate (simple) strategies to catch a rare, one-off Pokemon?!?!!?
Can't wait for Gen 10 where every PokeBall has the power of a Master Ball and they only serve cosmetic differences.
They really should just go back to Poke/Great/Ultra/Masterballs only and make all the other ones cosmetic. Most the other ones are useless but even if they weren't they'd be at best as good as a Dusk Ball in very specific cases where a Dusk Ball can be used anywhere as long as you change your clock. Dusk Balls really just ruin any chance of other balls being useful
Timer balls are better after the 8th or so turn.
>let's slap sunglasses on articuno and then color it purple !
regional variants were a mistake
G-Articuno would work better if it was stuck in Gen 1 instead with Guzzlord stat distrbution instead.
It’s actually worse competitively than Kanto Articuno despite all the campaignshitters whining that ice makes everything worse. Kanto Articuno gets a bunch of useful tools like Snow defense boost, Snow Cloak, Sheer Cold, Freeze Dry, 100% accurate Blizzards while Galar Articuno is just a mediocre special attacker that doesn’t really do anything.
I really think Gamefreak fricked up it’s signature move on purpose, but does Gamefreak really care about competitive then?
>It’s actually worse competitively than Kanto Articuno
Huh?
>Is consistently a tier higher in Smogon
>Sees more use in VGC, even after the reworked Snow made Ice more viable
>fanfic
not relevant
>vgc
Literally made it to day 2 of worlds, meanwhile galar articuno is nowhere to be seen
>day 2 of worlds
not relevant
>high ranking in the biggest tournament in the world isn't relevant
>but my fanfic format that arbitrarily bans two of the things that make the pokemon good that it was designed around is relevant because I don't actually play the game and like to stare at tier rankings
>high ranking in the biggest tournament in the world isn't relevant
No more than the actual game ladder. All it means is it won a couple of games. Galarticuno wins more overall.
>because I don't actually play the game and like to stare at tier rankings
Says the cuck that bases his knowledge tournament streams. I'm the only one bringing up ACTUAL GAME STATS.
Play the game.
>Galarticuno wins more overall
No it doesn't. Being used more doesn't mean it actually wins games.
>Says the cuck that bases his knowledge tournament streams.
No, I base my knowledge on playing the game.
No.
