Holy shit how did they let this slide for so long

At least they have hidden abilities now.

But I don't really understand why this kind of ability should be banned. Why not ban Focus Blast, too? 30% of the time, using it might cost you the battle.

I feel like sand veil gliscor would be better to deal with than toxic heal. Was Gliscor really the deciding factor?

Because low accuracy moves are a risk you are willing to take upon yourself, instead of the opponent forcing dice rolls onto you, you fucking piece of shit strawmanning retard. We've had these damn fucking FUCKING debates thousands of times, yet you people never fucking learn YES I'M MAD

smogon is retarded, what's new?

>banning everything we don't like
Anyone who even pays attention to Smogon should get raped to death by angry bears.

If you really want to get me going, just keep defending evasion by bringing up magical leaf, gravity, and how OHKO moves are always 30%

>>31935095
But OHKO moves should be a risk you're willing to take upon yourself, anon, yet they're banned.
>>
>>31935095
If you're not hitting a mon that has higher evasion, it's your fault. You should be using moves like Aerial Ace and be prepared for everything.

252+ Atk Metagross Meteor Mash vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Gliscor: 102-121 (28.8 - 34.1%) -- possible 5HKO after Poison Heal

Gliscor was insanely bulky before the power creep, I assume having it dodge your shit would've been ridiculous.
