>Slow Start now only lasts for three turns and doesn't reset if the Pokemon switches out
>Truant has a +50% chance of making the Pokemon refuse orders after each successful attack, rather than a guaranteed refusal every other turn
>Defeatist kicks in at 30% HP instead
How much does the viability of Pokemon with these abilities improve if these changes were to be made?

More shinanigans.
>Regigigas is only usable as a Substitute Gimmickmon
>RNG Shenanigans
>Archeops is even better
>>27245448
Only way Regigigas could become viable is if they gave it access to Protect, and made Slow Start last 3 minutes, a Normal type Physical draining attack and giving it to Regigigas would help loads too
Or just straight up give it a Primal, turn it into Normal/Fighting with 110/180/140/100/140/100 stats and an literally any ability as long as it isn't a hindering one, even Run Away would work
How about:
>Pokémon with truant only refuse to do an attack, so status moves are still possible
>>27245448
i think truant should just prevent attack moves every two turns, but allow a set of selected moves like Slack off, yawn, rest, and other passive/lazy themed moves.

>110/140/140 bulk with only one weakness
>180 attack and a slightly-above-average 100 speed
I want this so bad, the best regi deserves to be more than just some laughing tool. Hopefully gen IV remakes are made just for those extra primals and megas
