couple mechanics notes - matcha gotcha doesn't have the heal flag in the game, so like bitter blade, it doesn't work with triage. normalize only boosts moves whose type gets changed by 1.2x, so already-normal moves don't get a boost (beads of ruin or adaptability would give a higher boost anyway). embody aspect doesn't work on anything that isn't ogerpon.

One set I can see work well for the fire Ogerpon is desolate land. Permanent boost to fire stab + solar blade no charge. Synthesis also getting extra healing to help heal off damage

rocky payload != adaptability. rocky payload provides a larger boost. 0 Atk Cornerstone Mask Ogerpon-Cornerstone Ivy Cudgel vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Arceus: 129-153 (33.8 - 40.1%) -- guaranteed 3HKO 0 Atk Cornerstone Mask Adaptability Ogerpon-Cornerstone Ivy Cudgel vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Arceus: 172-204 (45.1 - 53.5%) -- 31.3% chance to 2HKO 0 Atk Cornerstone Mask Rocky Payload Ogerpon-Cornerstone Ivy Cudgel vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Arceus: 195-229 (51.1 - 60.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

Rocky Payload I believe gives a 1.5x boost while adaptability gives a 1.33x boost on stab moves. 2.25x boost with Rocky Payload but only a 2x boost with Adaptability. But adaptability also boosts your other stab so it is usually better.

Man, i really wish they'd given Empoleon Defog. Seems really difficult to fit it on a team when corviknight is so similar and basically mandatory.

For Ogidogi, I was thinking either Contrary Superpower - because it already has good bulk and damage and you could boost it even more while attacking, or Triage bulk up to play sort of like iron hands except with a better pixelate/fairy matchup

Not AAA, but I've been having fun with a Dipplin build in monotype. Sticky Hold is fantastic for an eviolite user, and you do have the ability to trap and chip stuff with Infestation (plus Dragon Tail to phase so that dipplin can't be set up on, of course). It manages to do far more work than it seems like it would
@davidshatto76049 ай бұрын
Why can dipplin use eviolite?

It apparently has an eventual evolution in DLC 2 so it can use eviolite.

Rock head is legal but at the same time it’s just a worse magic guard so you’d just wanna use that instead, even then though you’d prolly rather use another offensive mg mon instead
