Honestly I wish there was only 50% or 100% accuracy for moves, just make it a coin flip. Either the move is so good you have to flip a coin or you just never have to worry about missing a 95% move 3 times in a row because random number generators are just inherently flawed.
@LordEmveeКүн бұрын
Agreed. Missing 90 or 95 accuracy moves is frustrating and feels unnecessary in competitive play. However I can see how randomness keeps players engaged by offering opportunities for comebacks in tough spots. It’s a double-edged sword

Positioning is one of the most important parts of the battling aspect of the game. so having free reign in switches is crucial. Although... I'd be curious to see how a format would be with limited switches. Like in the Pokemon anime show you don't see Ash switching out left and right (though perhaps he simply doesn't know he can do that).

Yeah absolutely can go more in depth in the vid :) The short story is there used to be a Chinese database that contained unique sets and EV spreads for Pokemon all the way up to generation 6 or 7. I used it directly from there, but it shut down years ago (though I saved/stored a lot of it). For newer Pokemon I just make my own and call it Chinese EV spreads because it closely resembles them and is crafted in a very similar way. It's become second nature at this point.
