Cloud Nine now completely get rids of weather instead of just negating it as long as the pokemon is out.

when it comes to overpowered mons (archeops) sure, but not when shit like Run Away is given to the weakest of the bunch

besides, we're not here to gives a shit what they're "meant to be," we're conceptualizing buffs for fun

tl;dr
>maybe your opinion is shit?

Haxorus is already OU, the other 2 are heavily outclassed by Haxorus, so they will stay there

He'd become uber more than likely, which would suck.

Oblivious ignores moves over 90 base power.

Pressure now has a chance to Taunt the opponent:
75% if it has 100% HP
60% if it has more than 75% HP
50% if it has more than 50% HP
30% if it has less than 50% HP

Water Veil gains +1 Defense and Special Defense from every move that can burn

Crunch, Shadow Ball, and some more. But I really just wanted to prevent outrage/close combat spam, so 100 power would work fine.

Does anyone have any ideas for improving Anticipation? I tried the last time a thread like this came up, but couldn't think of anything.

Nah man, Stench is pretty nice as is.

A good buff would be for that flinch chance to proc when the opponent does a physical attack to the Stench user.

>>11933386
I've dreamed of this for Jumpluff the moment they announced it.

Disappointed does not encompass my feelings when I discovered that all it did was bypass the screens+Safeguard.

>>11933394
I like it. Though, I think it should be a +1 Acc buff/30% acc buff like Compound Eyes.
It'll still have a chance to miss, but will be far more reliable.

>>11933484
Pressure doesn't need a buff.

Sure, some of its users aren't made to abuse it effectively, but the ability is perfect for defensive Pokemon.

>>11933624
Reveal the move outright. Hard to buff the ability without completely redesigning it, since the concept for it is so limited.

Keen eye: critical rate + 1, chances of added effect + 30%
Coumpound eyes: Raises evasion by 20%
Healer: 30% chances of recovering 1/5 of hp each turn
Normalize: It allows to hit ghost types and nullifies resistance.
Minus/Plus: 30% chances of raising Sp. def when using an electric move
Rattled: 50% chances of raising attack +1 each turn the oposing pokemon is either dark, ghost, bug or advantaging type
Stall: both defenses and evasion are boosted by 30% perfect for next's gen eviolite sableye

Have anticipation work like a reverse download, and raise the defense stat one matching the foes highest offensive stat one stage

As for Oblivious, just give it the same effect as magic guard, makes sense
