Modest or Timid?

For the tree? Timid is the only correct answer.

Timid. You already hit hard enough with Electric Terrain.

Has tapu koko always had an obvious stiffy front and center?

Yes.

>>31066533
They're feathers. He's a rooster.

They really nerfed it, it almost has no good attacking moves and attack is its 2nd highest stat

Naive

>>31066767

It's called balance

They balanced it around Electric Terrain being up.

Psychical Tapu Koko is noob bait, you should be using it as a special attacker.

>>31066786
Why tho? I've never using tapu koko, but it seems reasonable to run physical, being that you already have to use uturn. With bravest bird and wild charge and maybe roost or some filler it seems line it could do some damage.
Really someone explain why physical is worse than special.

So it's a cock

You use U-turn to get free switches, not to deal damage.

>Koko's physical movepool
Wild Charge
U-turn
Brave Bird

>Koko's special movepool
Thunderbolt
Volt Switch
Dazzling Gleam
Hidden Power
Nature's Madness

>>31066928
I'll bite. Because quite honestly it's special movepool has more value and why the heck would you reasonably want to use a recoil electric attack that makes contact over thunderbolt? Not to mention it doesn't get playrough while the the special side get dazzling gleam. But do what works for yoi

Dazzling gleam, Thunderbolt, U-turn, grassknot

Naive

>>31067041
Nature's Madness can work for a physical set just because of how it works though.

>>31067041
You would run volt turn and u turn on the same set?
>>31067083
It seems like the only advantage special gets is no recoil and dazzling gleam. That's good but not great.

I feel so fucking stupid.

>>31067236
Why would you run Switch on the same set as Turn? One's physical, the other's special. Volt Swich does more damage especially on a special set especially in electric terrain.

No recoil, no contact; STAB Gleam; STAB + terrain boosted switching attack; and the ability to take HP Ice for coverage against ground and grass types.

>>31067397
The entire point of switching is getting away from a counter, which would be a ground type.
You can't volt switch out of a ground type.

Regardless of this physical vs special, u turn is def preferred over volt switch in this situation

>>31067397

You use U-turn over Volt Switch simply because nothing is immune to U-turn; the damage doesn't matter.

Lets see...Wild charge on a pokemon who can't take recoil damage.
Also is susceptible to everything barring paralysis, long reach, pickpocket, and tough claws in pic related.

Sure if its physical movepool was worth anything these would be negligible...but it's not so...

>not naming your Tapu Koko "Thundercock"

>Not using protect/(Z-)Mirror-move/(Z-)Brave Bird/Wild Charge to blow marowak the fuck out and sweep
its like you want to lose
even if it switches after protect, you still get +2 attack

>>31066208
With modest, when you max out speed, your base speed would be around 119. All while dealing a lot more damage overall. Making you feel more safe.

Timid has a lot of benefits, too. It allows you out speed tie with Mega Gengar, Crobat, and Jolteon. It also lets you outspeed non mega Alakazam, Mega Salamence, and Weavile.
