Dark type preventing prankstered support moves that call other moves/did damage was actually relevant in a finals match in VGC 2017, where a Z-boosted nature power used by prankster whimsicott was outright nullified by the opponent switching to mandibuzz .(though they still won despite losing their z-move)

You can still hit dark types with status moves if you have prankster IF you are encored into a status move but selected a non status move. Like if you went to attack at normal priority but then got encored into twave, you would use twave normally since you weren't queued to use prankster priority and dark type only blocks the priority

My question is how you would have clicked a status move in the previous turn to get encored into in the first place if you're up against a dark type The only way I can think of is happening if you had a prankster pokemon use a status move against a pokemon using a pivot move, and after (but during the same turn) that the status move is used they end pivot into a faster dark type and use encore?

The toxic-poison type-accuracy-bypass is actually super nuanced. SadisticMystic found that as long the FIRST move a poison type uses in a turn is toxic, any move it uses in that turn bypasses accuracy. You can use instruct on a Nidoking for example to have it use toxic first in a turn, and then have Nidoking use its own move to guarantee a hit with Horn Drill.

Terrain's interaction with Grounded and Ungrounded pokemon surprised me. I knew it mattered because of Rising Voltage and Grassy Terrain, but I didn't expect Psychic Terrain. I thought it prevented priority, but it rather shields you from priority, a small difference, but one that could have influence in a battle.

Hey Portobello, I really liked having all these grouped together. I'll put this in a playlist for myself, so I can make more educated guesses in team building. Thank you. Also if you're up for it, bulky stall vs hyper offence, pros, cons, matchups. The sky is the limit. There is a spectrum that goes from hyper offence -> offence -> mixed -> bulky offence -> bulky stall (with a few that fall between, like hazard rotation stall. Example: Tinglu wihrlwind/fissure)

Nice. I think flying types could use roost in a terrain to get the effects or activate seeds. Imagine Talonflame at low health. Enemy uses a priority move, but you use roost. Since you are flying type, your priority should activate thanks to gale wings, letting you recover, and, since you are now grounded, priority moves against talon flame should be nullified. That would be wicked, no matter how unlikely it is to happen. Also, why does sheer cold has a 20% Acc if you're not an ice type, yet it shows a 30% Acc. That's bound to confuse people

Something jank but funny is that, Ice type moves that can freeze, also do so to fire types with exception to those who have Magma Armor, which are limited to like 2 Pokémon. Macargo and Camerupt... neither of which would normally see play against ice types let alone most fights in competitive. I mention it because once frozen in gen 1, there is literally nothing you can do to escape without using an ice heal or being hit with a fire move that could burn. Meaning Fire Spin does not affect the frozen status... which you would think thaw them out immediately. But no. They are simultaneously frozen and burning from the outside. Which makes Gen 2 even funnier when you can: Freeze an Ice Type through Tri-Attack and Poison a Steel Type through Twinneedle. HOWEVER. Something that remains true to this day is that, the Freezing secondary effect does not work when the sun is up BUT IT DOES NOT thaw out the Pokémon any faster or immediately. You'd think it would at least double the chance of thawing out or speed up the process but it does not. Pokémon is fun.

It's interesting to notice how these immunities evolved trough generations: many of these immunities were introduced in gen 6, while in gen1 and gen 2 status immunities worked in a completely different way: pokemon were immune to statuses inflicted by moves they share a type with. For instance: twineedle could have poisoned a grimer, thunderbolt could have paralyzed a rattata but not a pikachu while body slam could have done the opposite. Tri attack in gen 2 could burn a fire pokemon or freeze an ice one. There are still some way to bypass the status immunities of certain types: the ability corrosion allows you to poison steel and poison types. while you can have strange results by evolving a statused pokemon, like a frozen glaceon, a burned flareon and a poisoned scizor, steelix or dustox...

they need to make an ice-type status if they ever used legend arecus frost burn status. Imagine freeze ray or freeze tag as an ice-type status. ice types are missing out on the status moves. we got thunder waves, will o wisp, toxic, a lot of sleep moves like hypnosis and yawn, we got infatuated and confusion. Ice types are the only ones that's missing out. but I get it freeze is super over power. but they could easily make freeze two turn thraw out like 2 turn sleep. but I think they should use legend arecus frost burn instead

​@@nightcollapse I thought so too initially, but Hail was never great. The chip damage is okay, but also hurts most of your own team. Unless you wish to include multiple Ice-types on your team. Snow and Aurora veil were massive buffs to Ice-types.

Partially related, but why is fighting not immune to ghost, but ghost is immune to fighting? Are fighters afraid of ghosts or something?

Because ghosts can cause fear and horror, or hunt you on your dream. But you can’t punch ghosts in the face coz their corporeal body

@@alfialfian2097 that makes sense but why are normal types immune? I assume that its because normal people dont believe in ghosts, therefore theyre immune, but are skillful fighters any different?

Grass types are immune to powder moves in general. Saying they're immune to Powder is true, but inaccurate, because Powder is only one of several powder moves.

When I said powder I did mean powder moves in general, hence the footage of Sinitcha being unaffected by Spore, Stun Spore, and Magic Powder. Sorry if I was unclear on that!

They should have kept hail and given it snow's stat boost. Instead they just made one of the worst types even worse. Removing pursuit while ghost can't be trapped is definitely an oversight, GF just doesn't care anymore if a detail that big is going over their head.

@@cuttlefish6839 I said double up, give hail the defense boost. I don't do any sort of battling in Gen 9 and probably never will, but there was nothing wrong with the chip damage, Ice just needs a lot more help than a defense boost. They've been trying to make defensive ice types work for almost thirty years and they haven't made any progress.

Alolan Ninetales is a great example. I know it's counter-intuitive, and my initial reaction was the same. Just don't talk about it as if you know for certain.

@definitelyarealperson3835
@definitelyarealperson3835 4 ай бұрын
I’m assuming you’re asking if a prankster Pokémon uses trick room when a dark type is present on field does that prevent the move. The answer is no since the move is not directed at the opponent but yourself. The same applies for stat boosting moves. A prankster sableye using calm mind will still successfully use the move first, even if the opponent has a dark type due the move not being directed at the opponent.
