Rage Fist is totally getting nerfed in the next game, right? RIGHT?

>Power increases by 25 instead of 50
>Maximun power of 125 instead of 350

There, it's not broken anymore...

I think 35 is probably better. You're most likely going to be using this move after being hit 2 or 3 times before you go down, unless you're running it as a part of a gimmick, so having a reliable 70 or 105 base power move will make the cost benefit analysis more interesting against other options like Poltergeist.

I doubt it. Aren't all moves basically meant to be used in BSS or VGC? GF doesn't seem to care about 6v6.

GF only nerfs things that weren't intended to be as powerful as they turn out to be, for example Talonflame, Aegislash, Zacian, etc. Annihilape is probably supposed to be strong. Last Respects is what's getting nerfed, and maybe Fishious Rend/Bolt Beak

Screens and or sub passing with bulk up + drain punch. Give it punching glove since its dual stabs and coverage moves all get boosted by it and it prevents damage or status from contact which you will be doing a lot of

Screens, can swap in on resistances, it also keeps the effect on KO, so you can throw it at enemies a few times then revive it to use the boost.

No, because getting that many hits accumulated and having enough HP left over to make good use of it is unironically hard in VGC/BSS, which are all GF care about

Last respects wont get nerfed because it's pretty shit in doubles. It's only broken in a 6v6 format. And the official formats are 3v3 singles and 4v4 doubles
What WILL get nerfed is chi-yu. They'll nerf all the 4 legendaries stats come next game. It's literally a better tapu koko in doubles and there's no counterplay to it

Why not reduce his defense every time he gets hit too?

I'm beyond excited to see Primape finally get the attention it deserves. Been a fan ever since it kicked Ash's ass in the anime. Imagine how disappointed 12 year old me was when it turned out to be a shitmon.

Who's laughing now though!

There are multiple ways to do it and can also do it manually too.
>Run bulky set up set with Bulk Up, Taunt, Drain Punch, and Rage Fist with defensive Tera
>Pivot into resisted hits since Rage Fist doesn’t lose the boosts when you switch out
>Use a weak Beat Up on Annihilape in Doubles
Annihilape is also probably the biggest Stall killer in the game because of Taunt and Rage Fist. Max power Rage Fist with 0 investment to Atk does more than half to Max investment Avalugg.
0 Atk Annihilape Rage Fist (350 BP) vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Avalugg: 195-231 (49.4 - 58.6%) -- 98.8% chance to 2HKO
For perspective, here is how much Choice Band Fishious Rend does to Avalugg.
252+ Atk Choice Band Strong Jaw Dracovish Fishious Rend (170 BP) vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Avalugg: 246-289 (62.4 - 73.3%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

No, it’s just that balance patches are $40 (now $30-$60) throughout the series, so there is no reason to make traditional balance patches.
