>>13859478Same thing usually happens with gimmick pokemon. If it didn't have shit stats, it would be viable. It wastes a turn transforming and transforming only changes its STAB. Make it so each form changes his stats. His biggest issue is that Weather Ball is just fucking weak and it makes no sense. Give it AT LEAST 75 damage and now we're cooking with gas.
But its biggest downfalls are its lack of speed and shit defenses. A weather-changing pokemon is fine but with its useless speed and shit defenses all it is is a target. If it moved first it would be more about prediction and less about bullshit.
HAIL+RAIN DANCE+SUNNY DAY+WEATHER BALL should be a viable moveset for Castform when all is said and done, but as of now it's laughable.
