Truant now prevents the use of moves of the same category in consecutive turns
For example, Slaking can't use 2 physical/special/status moves 2 turns in a row, but it can use a physical attack and then a status move next turn
Is it good now?

Step 2: Protect
Rinse and repeat

Truant is now flat out removed because >powercreep
There, Slaking is now fixed. Give it Oblivious or something.

That was kinda what I had in mind to be honest
Earthquake, knock off, return and slack off/protect/bulk up seems like it'd be a good set. I'm unsure if with today's power creep it would be ubers rather than just S+ in OU
It would indeed be a monster in-game tho, but I think after all these years it deserves it
The ability is just pure bullshit like defeatist. There needs to be some upside to it.
>>31439058
I don't think every ability needs an upside.
>>31439058
The upside is legendary stats. Don't ask me about Durant
I've used Slaking in semi-competitive play before. Even with Truant the thing is hard to take down, especially if you're good at predicting switch-ins.

I think they literally just did it for the pun.
