What's the point of this move? It's literally just

What's the point of X-scissor when we have Leech Life?

Doubles

Earthquake in doubles hit everyone, even your partner, for reduced damage.
Earthquake also deals 50% of damage in grassy terrain.

It doesn't hit your allies in doubles.

>>31182086
what kind of shit comparison is this

Just for in game usage I guess. So that ground types have a nice ground attack without giving the player access to earthquake too early in the game.

Multi target moves get weaker when they more than one pokémon and get blocked by Wide Guard. Also, it doesn't hit your partner, that's why.

what's the point of scald when we have Steam Eruption?

>Same base power
>Same type
>Leech Life is better because it restores HP
>X-scissor doesn't

Why use it anymore when you have a better alternative?

I was sure they were going to buff x scissor to 90. It was always disappointingly weak. You have a chitinous giant bug monster slashing you with two claws, which is less powerful than a fucking fairy flower playing roughly with you

>>31182184
Because the mons that use xscissor didn't get leech life

The point is that is a signature move for a horse, and that it doesn't damage allies in doubles. Is it really that hard to understand?

mudbray learns high horse at level 24 while mudsdale learns earthquake at level 47

it's an ingame move

Except no-one gives a shit about doubles?

High Horsepower's power isn't affected by Grassy Terrain

checkmate

Should've been a Ground-type Heavy Slam.

Kill yourself

official format, nigga

>>31182068
A Pokemon that doesn't learn EQ or Drill Run could get High Horsepower

Doubles is the official metagame
