>>47758688 I don't think Stealth Rock should ever heal the opponent since there are already many ways to deal with it
Stealth Rock Balancing
>The damage done by Stealth Rock is reduced by 1/2 for all grounded Pokemon (Fire/Flying takes the normal 50%, Fire/Bug takes 25%, Pure Fire takes 12.5%) Flyers/Levitators being immune to all other hazards makes this fair. It also fits the lore because the Rocks float in the air. Other Moves
>Scald is reduced to 65 BP >Close Combat is reduced to 110 BP since everything gets it now. >Moonblast is reduced to 85 BP >Recover is reduced to 8 Max PP >Skitter Smack is increased to 80 BP and 100% accuracy >Pokemon using and targeted by Ally Switch are considered "switching" for the purposes of Pursuit (meaning Pursuit has increased priority and power against those Pokemon. Also put Pursuit back in the game) Other
>Light-based moves have 20% boost when used by a Pokemon with Illuminate >All moves that can cause flinch can not flinch the same target on consecutive turns >Dual Type Pokemon only get a 1.3% STAB for both of their types >Dual Type Pokémon weaknesses max out a 3X. Types interactions
>Ice resists Flying and Ground >Ice gains a 1.5% Def Boost in Hail. >Bug is not resisted by Fairy Anonymous

Why is pursuit even banned

>>47760724 It's Not banned. It was just removed from Sw/Sh with other moves like Return or Hidden Power.

>>47760731 Idk. Gamefreak remove many moves in the transition to Sw/Sh, the majority being not popular ones like Spotlight or Rototiller, but also moves who are used in Strat like Pursuit, Hidden Power and Return.

>>47760752 I agree, but they could bring the move back in BDSP as a signature to Unown.

>>47760760 They'd probably just straight up remove the Soloceon Ruins for no reason.

If pursuit was still in the game do you think Dragapult would be nearly as prominent?

>>47760769 That would be Tyranitar-tier of dumb.
If they really don't want Hidden Power,but Unown and the Solaceon Ruins are still there, they could just give new moves for Unown like Confusion, Tackle and Cosmic Power for example.

To fix pokemon remove the powercreep and make the gameplay more like the trading card games, which also are in need of removing power creep
