>>24917458Wait no hold on it's looking to be nowhere near as degenerate; the King's Shield equivalent only reduces damage rather than eliminates it entirely and it's unknown whether the sharp attack drop against contact moves is still present. Hopefully Protect doesn't flip her back like how it somehow didn't with Aegislash. She also appears to be lacking a LOT of what made Aegislash so stupid (no priority moves, unless that new one at 56 is a Chaos priority move, no set-up moves, nowhere near as good defensive typing [fire weak, earth weak, double weakness to fighting], doesn't look to have anywhere near as good type coverage...)
Sorry, I just had horrible flashbacks about how insanely bullshit Gen 6 competitive was. We already have stuff like SukunaD running around that eat this thing for lunch, I just panicked and assumed the worst.
>>24917600Wow, it's like a physical Regice minus all the weaknesses that made Regice completely useless.
