>>36867186I made a huge rant about hazards and weathers but 4chan scrapped it because fucking captcha. Hazards can stay, probably at the same powerlevel it'd just be fun to have better ways of dealing with them so birds and everything that isn't steel or poison doesn't get fucked so hard by them.
I appreciate all the little features of the game, I just think both GameFreak and Smogon are bad at gamebalance.
There's also Talonflame. I hate hazards and love birds, but damn, that's the one thing I'm glad got fucked by stealth rock in XY. After the nerf is it viable to run Flying Gem Acrobat bravest birb in any tier? Assuming you get a clean switch.
I'm more into romhacks, trying to fix the type matchups (lol) and balancing game mechanics these days. So I'd like to ask if the anons in this thread have any solutions to fixing the mechanics by changing how types, abilities and moves work, not just adding more clauses.
