>Regigigas now learns Gear Up >it can use Z-Gear up on

Regigigas will always be shit.

>>31940053
not if it loses Slow Start

They should just remove Slow Start entirely

>Waste your turn and your Z-Move to make this pokemon less shit
Yeah, normal Regigigas is more viable.

What about Regigigas paired with Protean Skill Swap Kecleon in doubles?
Turn 1, Kecleon swaps Protean for Slow Start.
If still alive on Turn 2, swaps Slow Start onto the opponent's pokémon.

Pretty sure Skill Swapping Slow Start off of it means it never gets the power boost.

>>31940092
I'm not saying it would be amazing

I'm just saying that it would be much, much better than it is now

But you already knew that, right?

>>31940100
nerfing abilities were a mistake.
GF already failed with Slaking back then. I have no idea on what they were thinking.

>>31940095
This is incorrect according to Bulba-Pedo:

"Slow Start causes the Attack stat and Speed stat to be halved during the first five turns in battle. This counter is reset if the Pokémon is switched out.

If this Ability is replaced due to a move like Skill Swap or Worry Seed or suppressed by Gastro Acid, the Pokémon's stats return to normal."

>>31940110
it wouldn't be so bad if the ability didn't reset after switching

>>31940126
It would still be 5 turns. Any mon setup and recover in that time. Regigigas was cursed since the moment it was created.

The Pokemon focuses solely on it's work. Immune to status moves and status effects but can't use status moves either.
