>>49182726>Like Hippo doesn't have a million counters.Like what, special attackers? It plays an important role in stall teams and checks Zera
and on grass knot
>SpDef hippo exists, and is the most popular set>No one uses it anymore cause mixed zera is dead in favor of bulk upalso
>It's not equivalent to 1 Pokemon taking on 3You realize how teams are meant to have one poke check multiple, my blissey or whatever doesn't just check specs Dragapult, but most specs mons, hippo is the same except you need to cover for ice and grass types (oh look a corviknight right there)
>autism rocks and a narrow selection of pokemon that resist itdo you know how rock metas even work? it's just like any entry hazard you don't aim to "resist" them (idk their rock type hazards so you use steels?) you just utilize them to allow KOs to happen or remove them to make switching less risky on your end
the make matches quicker and switching more risky, that sounds a lot more interesting then muh HDB regenerator stall fest
