>In addition to changing Techno Blast's type, Genesect's Drives now also change its primary type (Bug) to that of the equipped Drive
Burn Drive = Fire/Steel
Douse Drive = Water/Steel
Shock Drive = Electric/Steel
Chill Drive = Ice/Steel
How much does it improve?

Hes slightly better?
It could work. Though the one with the best type combination is guaranteed to be used the most.
>>32346914
It'd go some way to making the drives all usable and better rounded however losing Scarf is a massive loss to Genesect. It really sits in a bad speed tier.
>Burn Drive = Fire/Steel
Easily top tier. Game is in such a lack of a second Fire/Steel type beyond Heatran but Genesect is better for offensive teams. Also gains the option of STAB Flame Charge which fixes it's speed problem.
>Douse Drive = Water/Steel
Again top tier. Water/Steel is a fantastic typing and unlike the only exclusive owner of it Genesect has coverage moves, more power and speed.
>Shock Drive = Electric/Steel
Sort of a toss up, kind of loses out to Choice variations of Magnezone in exchange for actual coverage but not that great really.
>Chill Drive = Ice/Steel
Not as bad as you'd think though mostly due to it's coverage moves and ability to vault away from danger and that Steel actually gives Ice a chance to switch in.

Not really, Scarf is the worst Genesect set
>>32347323
Really, that bad?

I always thought specs was the best genesect set.
