Who thought it'd be a good idea to have only ONE physical Fairy type move?

>give a physical attacker mostly special moves
>no draining kiss buff
>only good physical moves aren't even STAB just Brave Bird and U Turn

Still OU as fuck regardless but Gamefreak dodged a bullet making this thing not as broken.

I think OP was talking about Play Rough.

Which Tapu Koko and Tapu Bulu don't get for some reason.

they didn't give Draining Kiss a buff because it's supposed to be a reverse Giga Drain.

50 bp 75% restorage vs 75 bp 50% restorage

meanwhile Leech Life gets to have 80 bp

He honestly should've been Electric/Fighting instead of Electric/Fairy. He's a goddamn tribal warrior.

Lycanroc for starters.
Play Rough is just such a generic move. Everything should get it. It should be like body slam and superpower.

Yeah, that would've been really devastating on any other type save maybe Bug. As it stands it's still really good, just not game-breakingly so like Lele.

Plus I'd argue tapu bulu needs play rough even more.

Play Rough being the only physical fairy move is the thing that is singlehandedly keeping Fairy balanced.

Fighting makes no sense on it's flavor. Koko refuses to save people in need unless it has an interest in them. Fairies can be selfish assholes.

I see your logic...but then there's the tiny issue of ice beam being used by everything that ISN'T ice majority of the time.

No. Play Rough is good enough that it being the only physical Fairy move does not keep the type from being broken as fuck. Koko and Bulu are strong enough with 0 physical Fairy-type moves, after all, and Bulu in particular doesn't really need it because of how fuckstrong its Wood Hammer is.

I thought it was the pokemon themselves? We finally have an adequate number of good fairies now? I remember back when it started the quantity of solid fairies was laughably low.

Is this a gen 3 thread? The only thing broken about Metagross is his self esteem after his signature move became as strong as a generic fairy move.

But he's literally known for having a horrible temper and always picking fights. He only saves you so he can battle you later on in the game.

Fighting-types are typically portrayed as being honorable fighters, secondary type permitting, with a few notable exceptions what the fuck Primeape so just being a battle junkie doesn't make for Fighting-type flavor. If anything, Koko's capriciousness only adds to its fae credentials.

Ofcourse but the possibility of an attack decrease or encountering a 4x fairy weakness is never a bad thing

It's already a tutor staple. Think. Why would the TM compatibility for Earth Power be any different from the tutor compatibility of the move?

ORAS was rushed shit, what else is new.
