Why different names
>>
>>29137246
Pure Power and Huge Power
>>
So it can be distributed to different Pokemon as-is thematically appropriate.
>>
>>29137246
Maybe Queenly majesty has more than one effect ?
Or maybe they have different out-of-battle effects ?

Either way, yeah, they should have been one and the same. We have abilities that have the same effects already, but these are introduced the same generation, for crying out loud.
>>
>>29137246
Vital Spirit and Insomnia
>>
>>29137274
Teravolt, Turboblaze, and Mold Breaker.
Insomnia and Vital Spirit.
Air Lock and Cloud Nine.
>>
>>29137246
Leak proved that Queenly Majesty blocks roar/whirlwind/counter etc..
>>
So it's pretty obvious these were designed by the very same person.
>>
>>29137282
Except that "Dazzling" fits both of them perfectly fine
>>
>>29137282

Correct Answer
>>
>>29137246
Queenly Majesty is not applicable to Bruxish's appearance.
>>
>>29137320
Correct Answer
>>
>>29137339
But Dazzling is applicable to Tsareena's appearance.
>>
>>29137339
you shut the fuck up
>>
>>29137320
That's a translation thing. The Japanese name makes it clear that the ability is referring to the gaudy colors of its skin.
>>
>>29137320
Dazzling is only its name in english, though.
In french it's basically 'colorful skin", and in japanese "vivid body".
>>
>>29137302
Clear Body, White Smoke, and Full Metal Body

Whoa there trigglypuff.

Bruxish, as much as I love it for its ability, is nowhere near "queenly" or "majestic." Face the facts. It's hideous and it looks like a tranny called "Jasmine Masters."

I thought I told you to be quiet.

One refers to to priority attacks while the other refers to priority moves in general.

Dazzling can't out priority protect but Queenly Majesty can. Queenly Majesty exists to shit on stall setups.
>>
Queenly Majesty is going to be so fucking good in VGC, holy shit.

No more fake out faggots.
>>
If one can stop protect and one only stops attacks then they'd be distinguished.
>>
>>29137246
One stops priority mves from attacking first, the other stops them mostly.
>>
>>29137418
You cannot silence me, you silly hooker. Kek! Autonomy and democracy! Let's have fun here in /vp/ and get along with one another!
>>
>>29137246
Vespiquen better get Queenly Majesty
>>
>>29137320
Sort of, but Queenly's Majesty is meant to be intimidating, whereas Dazzling is meant to be disorienting.

Bruxish uses its psychic powers to give terrible headaches to opponents and eventually leave them unconcious, and Dazzling was made with this in mind. Therefore, Dazzling can't fit Tsareena because it doesn't have psychic powers, it just has a no-nonsense, intimidating personality reminiscent of a noble woman.
>>
Dazzling only affects offensive priority moves, queenly majesty affects all priority moves
>>
>>29137246
Maybe dazzling just blocks all priority attack moves, while queenly majesty blocks all priority moves, including status moves.
>>
Maybe one ability stops priority moves from going first and the other one stops them from being used at all.
>>
Based on the description I think Dazzling just removes the priority and Queenly Majesty makes it impossible to use a priority move.
>>
>>29137605
>>29137454
>>29137427
Queenly Majesty sounds like it's going to fuck up most stall teams.
>>
Do we know anything about how these abilities work with Prankster?
>>
>>29137316
>Negative priority is considered in this
That's actually something I didn't think about.
>>
>>29137712
Yeah. It's required to know more strategy efforts this year.
>>
>>29137712
Still requires Tsareena to not be a total shitmon.
>>
>>29137385
battle armor and shell armor
>>
>>29137384
if muk doesn't get that as it's HA I'm gonna be a wee bit upset
>>
The wording is slightly different, bruxish says it blocks priority moves that "normally" hit first, so maybe dazzle can't block gw brave bird, but queenly majesty can
>>
>>29137316
/thread

>this is a new ability... never been done before

this is why
>>
>>29137316

Which leak?
>>
>>29137401

> "Tsareena done fucked up drag"
>>
>>29137316
Makes sense considering the wording in OP's image.

Queen Majesty
>Priority moves won't hit at all
Dazzling
>priority moves hit second

Seems broke as fuck and i hope i am wrong but yeah thats what it seems like
>>
>>29137427
Where are you getting this from?

Both of them just say priority moves.
>>
>>29138319
Could be a good counter for megas.
>>
>>29138319
You are completely wrong. Bruxish's trailer shows that it cancels them out. They work exactly the same way.
>>
>>29137246
Bruxish seems to apply only to priority attack moves while Tsareena prevents all priority moves. Seems to be an upgrade to Dazzling.
>>
>>29137246

Dazzling prevents positive priority moves, i.e. Aqua Jet, Extreme Speed, etc.

Queenly Majesty prevents all priority moves, including ones with negative priority such as Roar/Whirlwind and Tirck Room
>>
>>29138341
On the website, Dazzling is described as "preventing priority moves that normally strike first."
Queenly Majesty says "prevents opponents from using priority moves".
>>
>>29138319
factually incorrect

Bruxish's trailer showed it negating Quick Attack entirely
>>
>>29138363
Well fuck my ass and call me sally I am a retard

I think this anon got it right
>>29138413

>>29138512
Bend over, Sally. Daddy's going in dry.

N-nani!?

what's this about
>>
>>29137427
Oh. So it's like what Soul Heart is to what Special Moxie is. Where it is slightly better and people don't realize it.
>>
>>29137282
this is likely the case

>>29137316
oh shit nvm this

>>29137302
>>29137385
>>29138039
I think Gamefreak had an idea for what ability that they wanted to give each pokemon, but they didn't think the name of that ability suited it. I don't really mind them having the same ability (even if it is kind of boring)

What I do mind is them trying to pass off ability clones with different names as "new abilities no pokemon has ever had before"
>>
>>29137316
>Leak proved
?_?
>>
>>29137274
I thought these actually did work differently?

If this is true...then Tsareena has to have poor defenses, or at least one good/one bad. If it can really block priority attack moves AS WELL as Roar/Whirlwind, Trick Room, AND Protect...then that is insane, and I need one on my team.
>>
>>29137316
Well shit
