>>15336212>this does not necessarily mean boosting sweeper.No, but it does mean that you aren't gonna put it out at the beginning of the game and attempt to weaken the enemy team with it, then switch it out, then switch it back in to use outrage. You're just going to use outrage, or else you're gonna boost and use dragon claw. You're missing the point here- You're trying to justify this by using haxorus in an instance where it simply cannot possibly perform at its best, and to justify THAT you're creating scenarios which are going to be very rare in practice (mister "you should actually play to know the meta," like Double Yew Tee Effers, Toots MacGoots), which is why I keep using that word you're ignoring, "circumstantial." It means in a very specific circumstance you are right, but nine times out of ten, you're horribly, horribly wrong.
>What if they don't let them get weakened until you switch in haxorus?then 1: the rest of your team is shit as well and 2: having outrage and DC both on a banded Hax isn't going to help you. This isn't just circumstantial, it doesn't even work for your argument.
>>15335869Correct and correct. I've tried to keep it on fairies but he seems obsessed with proving that his gen 5 haxorus doesn't eat shit when it does as well.
