Top 10 Most Game Changing Buffs In Pokemon

Having less PP make it better than Splash, I'd say, since it lets you use Struggle sooner. At least Struggle does something.

[@Sleeper800]

That fact is probably also helped by the fact that Drizzle isn't even Pelipper's hidden ability like it is for Politoed. It's just its second base ability, since it already had Rain Dish as a hidden ability.

[@Rakkun_Streak]

One Pokemon buff that I was expecting to see in this video is Poison Heal Gliscor. While it was already a solid Pokemon in Gen 4, it would have not survived power creep all these generations later if not for that ability.

[@LoDart210]

itemless and moveless chip heal and status immunity is incredibly powerful on such a good defensive mon. Gliscor definitely can survive without it if it has roost and another good ability, as natdex almost any ability has shown, but man toxic heal really vaults it to the stuff of legends. There should never be a gen where gliscor gets powercrept.

[@jaseplays9975]

Ever since Gen 3, Pelipper has been my favorite Pokemon. I took it with me to the Elite 4 as an HM slave at a point in my life where I was too young to recognize how I beat Pokemon Gold, and after losing all my Pokemon to Steven but Pelipper, the little pelican that could dodged a Meteor Mash and Hydro Pumped Metagross down. Ever since, I have loved Pelipper dearly, even as I grew older and realized that it wasn't considered a good Pokemon. When Pelipper got Drizzle, I instantly knew the game had changed. I'd used Pelipper in every game it was in following Sapphire, even knowing how not good it was, but having Drizzle meant that my constant companion had hit the big time. I could not be happier for it. This is for you, Pelipper. Know you beat the odds and became a star.

[@ariechriswell2669]

Scizor getting Technician Bullet Punch and U-Turn in gen IV was a buff that literally redefined it as a Pokemon. It went from a mediocre mon that occasionally saw play on dedicated Baton Pass teams in Gens II and III to the vicious bulky physical attacker it is known as today. Other notable buffs would be Gen IV Mence getting physical Outrage and Draco Metor and getting itself banned, Gen III TTar getting Sand Stream (and then getting even better in Gen IV with it buffing its SpDef), Gen V Gliscor getting Poison Heal, or the myriad of buffs Azumarill and Weavile got over the years. Maybe Gyara getting DD in Gen III and physical Water STAB in Gen IV?

[@karisasani7006]

32:56 While he didn't mention it, the fact that Bisharp gained the ability to evolve into Kingambit in S/V meant it could now run a eviolite if it wanted

[@shisuiedits]

I think it wasn't mentioned because by the time he got that he was power-crept

[@EvanFarshadow]

Honestly the eviolite doesn't help Bisharp. Kingambit is bulkier even after eviolite boost, and Bisharp needs life orb more for its damage, as it's not that bulky in the first place and is better off boosting what it is good at.

[@bdt2002gaming]

Here’s some more of theseI can think of off the top of my head: -Electric-Types arguably benefitting more than any other type from the addition of Hidden Power in Gen 2, to the point of a historic complex ban that doesn’t exist anymore -Several Dragon-Types benefitting from a significantly buffed Outrage in Gen 4 (DPP Garchomp and DPP Salamence especially) -Magic Guard being expanded to other Psychic-Type Pokémon in Gen 5, lowkey giving me Gen 1 vibes in the process -Alolan Ninetales’s rise to stardom in Gen 9 thanks to the changes to what is now Snowy weather

Another game changing buff is Tyranitar getting Sand Stream in Gen 3. Went from simply being a great Pokemon in Gen 2 OU to one of the absolute faces of Gen 3-5 OU. I highly doubt the mon would have anywhere near the competitive longevity it has if it weren't for getting Sand Stream.

[@riccardocasu5576]

Especially in Gen 3 OU, where Tyranitar was THE face of meta. Outside the great variance of sets (Dragon Dance, physical, special and mixed with all the possible coverage) Sand Stream itself was a game changer: the fact that you can negate Leftovers recovery and place constant chip damage (putting certain sets on a timer) is immense. It says something that Swampert and Claydol manage to find genuine OU usage despite the competition (Suicune / Milotic for former and Starmie for latter) just for the boon of not having to deal with the damage from sand.

[@ragnaricstudios5888]

If Gallade was faster, I would have said him getting Sharpness was appropriate

[@joshuakim5240]

The main issue here is that Teleport got cut from Slowking's movepool (and its Bro counterparts) in Gen9, so Slowking literally can't run Teleport even if it wants to. Because the important thing about Teleport that distinguishes it from Chilly Reception is that Teleport has Trick Room synergy, whereas Chilly Reception as a pivot move with no priority alterations can't do safe slow pivots in Trick Room. I'd say that both moves are comparable with different team synergies (Chilly Reception into Slush Rush mons go brrrrr, vs Trick Room'd Teleport into slow attackers go brrrrr), but one does not outclass the other as both tend to require very restrictive team compositions to make the best use of their full effects. Personally i really wish it was still available to them in Gen9 just to combat the obnoxious speed creep as a huge middle finger to that, and because anything that kicks down flutter mane is funny asf. Really miss the times of Trick Room'd Teleporting into Alolan Marowak. My favorite middle finger tactic to zacian's existence.
