>>58709104I really appreciate your insight. You have gotten me to change my perspective. Perhaps Sceptile should remain Special-oriented.
Moves like Nasty Plot, Aura Sphere, and Thunderbolt would be great for it. After all it learns physical moves of those types.
The more I think about it, the more I start to like replacing Unburden with a new ability that turns physical moves into special.
Call it "Specialist" for now. Looking at its learnset now, you would hardly need to give it any new moves.
>Special Scale Shot and Bullet Seed with Loaded Dice.>Special Earthquake and Rock Slide to somewhat mimic the old Earthquake and Stone Edge combo.>Special priority Grassy Glide when in Grassy Terrain.>Special Drain Punch to pair with Giga Drain for lots of healing.>Special X-Scissor, Crunch, Thunder Punch, and Acrobatics/Aerial Ace for more coverage.Yeah, this may be the way.
