>>44818858Lets see for the example of doublade which
>>44818723 put up to why not evolving it can be a good idea, it has Aegislash’s physical defence stat (though thanks to SWSH nerf, its physical defence is actually better than Aegislash), fantastic physical attack, has access to great moves, fucks over Potential evasion bullshit, can reliably work well in trick room teams (whereas Aegislash would normally prefer to attack after the opponent to avoid the risk of being blasted to oblivion while in its attack stance) and can also run Eviolite to further jack up its physical defence to tank physical hits even better and patch up its weaker special defence. The only thing that’d make Doublade an even better as equally good option to Aegislash is if it got something like Parental bond as an ability as well.
