>>38875340>>38875390this may kill his reign of terror but even then i still feel like he will be used. hes just too good at what he does. fire and dark are already risky types defensively so it would have to be a huge nerf, and intimidate doesn't have enough granularity for me to imagine a reasonable nerf gamefreak could give it. i mean he uses assault vest commonly anyway which makes special attacking fighting types not even that great of a nerf to him.
on top of that the box legendaries are looking like they're going to be steel type at least partially, and probably physical so an intimidating fire type is looking pretty useful.
hes not going away.
that said a better intimidate user could happen but it would need to be pretty minmaxed.
