after a bunch of games as azumarill i finally understand their intent behind their moves
>each slot has a primary move (whirlpool and water pulse, the meat of their respective combos) and a supplementary move (aqua tail and play rough, moves meant to keep you alive and/or make your use of the primary move more efficient)
>aqua tail and water pulse has you playing mid-range, firing water pulse as much as humanly possible and healing up with aqua tail
>whirlpool and play rough has you run around and bully people, performing hit and run bullshit
the issue here is that aqua tail and play rough fucking SUCK, which makes whirlpool and water pulse the objective best combo
here is my solution for buffing the other two moves
>aqua tail: reduce the cooldown by 2-3 seconds. that's literally it.
aqua tail is more of a "keep you alive" move than it is a "beat them to death" move, and this leans into that
>play rough: also increases attack by 35%/whatever play rough+ is% while active
makes your whirlpools beefier, your smacks smackier, and the play rough attack almost usable
