OU for five generations only to get buttfucked by power creep.
What can GF do to make best eevolution great again?
>>30629455
If they wanted to buff its stats, then they'd have to buff the stats of all the eeveelutions thowhich is not a bad thing at all
>>30629455
Speed Boost, Nasty Plot or Calm Mind, and Ice Beam
>>30629492
Eeveelutions already have 525 BST, the same as Lucario. What some of them really need is a stat redistribution.
>>30629455
Introduce a common water type stall mon, and make the KoKo/Jolt match up fall heavily into jolteons favor.
For real though, Lead Koko/vs Lead Jolt is fantastic if you don't mind risking the speed tie. T-bolt's a two-shot under terrain, and Koko's dazzling gleam fails to two-shot jolteon without a life orb.
>>30629455
Give it a tutor poison move to BTFO topcuck.
>>30629536
Jolteon's stat distribution is fine. What he needs is something to set himself apart from Heliolisk, A-Raichu, Topu Keko, etc. Maybe some sort of exclusive Z-Move or something?
>>30629704
>something to set it apart from helioisk and a-rai
More speed and better base special attack. There, we set it apart.
M-Manetric on the other hand.
>NB4 it's not gen 7 legal
It eventually will be, and we'll all go back to using that, and only using jolteon when we wanna use a different mega.
How do we set jolteon apart from M-Manetric?
>>30629704
>exclusive Z-Move or something?
Z moves are fairly shit in the meta
i want jolteon to sit on my face
Who gives a shit about OU? Use it in lower tiers
>>30629455
it needs actual attacking moves
>hidden power
lol
Dazzling gleam would be a good start
Switching its base Def and Atk would be a small step in the right direction...
>>30629455
>Mega Manectric is faster, hits harder, and has Flamethrower and Overheat for coverage
That's what went wrong with Jolteon.
+10 to sp.atk
>>30629455
Give it more speed, moves and Spatk.
They cannot fuck with its typing since it's an eeveelution so it can't get a secondary STAB and I can't think of a single ability that would make it better without breaking the theme, except for maybe lightning rod but at the end of the day it'd still be a shittier Manectric.
I'm sorry Jolteon but I'm afraid you have a case of chronic RU.
give it needle arm
>>30629455
>dual-type pokemon get 1.3x STAB on all moves
>mono-types keep their 1.5x modifier
fixed
>>30629455
MAKE IT FASTER
>>30629455
Jolteon has a shit movepool outside of STAB as well as being outclassed by Manectric, if it had some form of coverage that isn't hidden power or shadow ball it'd be UU at least
Also speed boost HA, Tangled feet is literally worthless and speed boost fits it well.
>>30632128
It has intimidate, too
>>30629494
>Nasty Plot
Oh my fucking God, YES.
>>30629704
Give all eevee evos technician. Technician pin missile would be neat.
>>30633763
How would that help?
It still has no coverage outside of Hidden Power
