>>It's life orb that ruined everything.>howBy letting mons power up their attacks with a very weak drawback, since attackers either don't care too much about their HP or have recovery
>>made everything better*>howBy forcing players to act decisively and allowing mindgames where players have to predict what the opponent's item is.
