Last two seasons I didn't even grind to A rank.
It was charming for a while but the FFA system frays my nerves. Sometimes no matter what you do you end up sandwiched and the best you can hope for it taking someone down before you get rolled. Running anything that isn't designed to OHKO just felt like shooting myself in the foot when I end up staring at 2 Xerneas and a Kyogre. Even in the legendaryless seasons everyone was minmaxing.

I tinkered around here and there, had fun with a lot of suboptimal pokemon and builds but most players running the same grab bag of mons got boring to deal with.

Climbing was never a problem when you can pubstomp with just about anything.
I'm saying it got boring because opponents either didn't know what they were doing and it was easy points and forgettable matches or you get into a lobby with 3 players running top meta and properly max their shit.

I tried going for the 0 death badge for a while but quickly got bored. Lot of ways to cheese it but ultimately it involved just skirting fights and running away a lot.
It was fun watching Milotic facetank a thunderbolt and heal it off for a few games.

They need improvements, but can't say they're a bad idea. ZA doesn't really go deep enough with them.

I played enough battles during season 1 to get whatever the mega stone was and haven't touched online since

Since we're likely less than a month away from their reveals, we should make our final predictions for their abilities. Suggest an ability, or if you think it'll get a new ability.
The abilities we know already: Starmie (Pure Power), Greninja (Protean), Chesnaught (Bullet Proof), and Delphox (Levitate).
First four:
Meganium - Drought
Emboar - Reckless
Feraligatr - Dragon's Maw
Barbaracle - Tough Claws

I got all the mega stones. Why would I need to keep playing ranked?

I suspect the Z megas will get a new ability shared between them to reflect their Z-A gimmick.
>>59046513
So they can ONLY hold the mega stone? I figured it would allow any item, so long as it was on a Pokemon that had a new mega. That really does limit things more than it needs to.

That seems pretty reasonable, sort along the lines of Ultra Beasts and Paradox mons.

Only because of how they're implemented. Who the fuck asked for a FFA mode to be the only option for online play? That's the lazy way out when you don't want to balance anything because pretty much any pokemon can steal kills

Actually, forget Mind's Eye. Meowstic doesn't have the moves for it. Not sure what to put here. Psychic Terrain?

Also thought Berserk or Overlord for Pyroar.
