Every Pokemon can now learn Sketch one time (barring Smeargle, Wobbuffet line, and Ditto).

How does the metagame change?

All pokemon have 4MSS, shit breaks.
>>
>>28122591
Every Pokemon that's currently unviable because of a lacking movepool suddenly becomes much more viable. Even Flareon
>>
>>28122591
-ilate Boomburst and Extremespeed dominate everything.
>>
>>28122618
Nice, Sacred fire Flareon.

>>28122591
>inb4 le crabhammer mew maymay
I guess that means Pokemon like Meganium and others with poor movepools become useful.
>>28122611
He just makes you relearn forgotten moves.

>>28122642
You can relearner sketch.

1hko moves are banned in Smogon, but gamebreaking shenanigans would be cool for normal online.

Dark void on everything
Mew learns Crabhammer
>>
>Dragon Dance Garchomp
Also any mon that can currently learn Lock On or one of its variants would become broken in game and on the battle spot
>>
>>28122591
The meta becomes even more stale and unchanging.
>>
>>28122591
It's called Sketchmons and it's a Smogon metagame

>Boomburst M-Gardevoir

>>28122591
The meta changes in a way that makes it not only impossible to fix but also impossible to change.
It would be broken forever.

>Draco Meteor/Overheat/Psycho Boost/Dragon Ascent/Close Combat Serperior/Malamar
>Cosmic power Shuckle
>Extreme speed M-Kangaskhan
>Electrify M-Sceptile/Raichu
>King's Shield ANYTHING

That would be one hell of a metagame alright.

Bad idea.
Make it a new Z-move that can only be used while the correct Z-Stone is attached.

That way it's limited to one mon, once per battle. Spore Jolteon might be broken as fuck, but if it can only be used once, it's less broken.

You forgot that it now has Geomancy and Stored Power as well.

Slow start and truant are dine away with skill swap.

Smogon did an experiment for a month a while back. It was kinda stupid.

Spore or Dark Void + Prankster users kills everyone's fun.

Geonmancy, Shell Smash, Quiver Dance, or Shift Gear on fucking everything.

Recovery on all bulky walls, Regis still kinda suck but suddenly Cofagrigus with Recover counters many OU threats thanks to Mummy and being able to restore HP after getting hit.

Skill Swap Slaking s a nuisance but can be dealt with.

Anything with an -ate ability spams Extreme Speed and ruins everyone's fun again.

It was so bad they had to ban Mega Pinsir. Seriously, those -ate abilities ruin everything whenever they try to do an "any move" or "any ability" format.

This, except it's a version of Sketch that only works on moves learnable by at least ten Pokemon families. Is the meta still broken?
