it's useless

Now, if it's a cc reskin that bypasses gender limitations, it would make sense, but then straight to AG it goes.

>>32583773

hello AG

>>32583806
>Celesteela has a literal lightning rod on top of its head

I would fund it just to see how cancerous it'd be

>>32583821
>Fan Rotom - Levitate
>when it's part flying
I fucked up, I almost gave Buzzwole Rivalry too.

>>32583822
That could work.

How? it can barely live a hit, the chances for the foe to get infatuated on it would be minimal

I like these ideas except for Kartana's. Hyper Cutter's description is "The Pokémon’s proud of its powerful pincers. They prevent other Pokémon from lowering its Attack stat". Kartana doesn't have pincers, so the description doesn't make much sense.

>>32583832

Everything is down to predictions, but switching it into a resisted physical is basically a free turn - opponent either has to switch or risk a 50% chance of doing nothing. But you're right, ag is probably overestimating it.

>>32583832
>it can barely live a hit, the chances for the foe to get infatuated on it would be minimal
Because muh lore over making something useful.

>>32583773
>Guzzlord: Innards Out
Better ability than Beast Boost, that's for sure.

>>32583741
>Nihilego
Trace or Telepathy
>Pheromosa
Speed Boost or Tinted Lens
>Buzzwole
Guts or Mold Breaker
>Xurkitree
Volt Absorb or Lighting Rod
>Kartana
Sniper or Hyper Cutter
>Celesteela
Aftermatch or Flare Boost
>Guzzlord
Mold Breaker or Simple or Strong Jaw

>Pheromosa: Queenly Majesty
Has it ever been a more perfect combination please GF...

>>32583822
>but then straight to AG it goes.
>This pokemon that can take at most 1 hit, in the tier it currently is, is AG-worthy with this ability which requires it to taking hits
Derp

Depends. If they get pre-existing abilities,
>Nihilego gets Merciless
>Pheromosa gets Queenly Majesty
>Buzzwole gets Sheer Force
>Xurkitree gets Electric Surge or Lightning Rod
>Kartana gets Super Luck
>Celesteela gets Heavy Metal
>Guzzlord gets Gluttony

If they get new abilities
>Nihilego gets Symbiont: If this Pokemon poisons an opponent in a double battle, the opponent has a chance to target its partner for attacks instead of whatever the original target was.
>Pheromosa gets Beauty: When Pheromosa makes contact with the opponent, they may become ifatuated with Pheromosa(ignores gender or lack thereof)
>Buzzwole gets Absorption: All Buzzwole's contact moves now restore its HP by half of the damage it does to its target
>Xurkitree gets Lightning: Xurkitree's Electric moves now hit opponents regardless of type or ability, and gain 20% bonus damage
>Kartana gets Blade: All cutting/slashing/scratching moves do 33% more damage and get a further increased Criticsl Hit ratio
>Celesteela gets Blaster: Celesteela's special attacks deal 25% more damage, and if they have a secondary effect the chance for it to go off is doubled
>Guzzlord gets Devourer(because Gluttony already exists): When Guzzlord makes contact with an opponent's Pokemon, Guzzlord Eats the target's held item. Diffetent effects apply depending on what Guzzlord eats. (Consumables like White Herb or a Berry give their normal effect, Choice items give Guzzlord +1 to whichever stat the item normally boosts, Toxic Orb poisons Guzzlord, Life Orb gives +1 to both offenses but causes some damage when LO is consumed.) Can't consume Z-Crystals or Mega Stones.

>>32583741
Nihilego: No Guard
Buzzwole: Big Pecs
Pheromosa: Weak Armor
Xurkitree: Keen Eye
Kartana: Competitive
Celesteela: Defiant
Guzzlord: Speed Boost

>>32583963
>this convoluted shit
If you can't fit an ability in the ingame description window, it's too complicated.

>>32584337
>Sympiont: Poisoned opponents may attack their partners in a double battle
>Beauty: May infatuate target when the Pokemon makes contact
>Absorption: Contact moves restore HP by half of damage dealt
>Lightning: Powers up electric moves. Electric moves hit Pokemon that would be immune.
>Blade: Powers up Slashing moves and improves Critical Hit ratio
>Blaster: Powers up Special attacks and increases secondary effect chances
>Devourer: Consumes target's held item on contact. Effect varies depending on target's item.

It's really easy to simplify for the in-game description. The abilities aren't that convoluted, except for maybe Devourer, which even then is still pretty simple.

Do these guys count as well

Nihilego - Levitate
Buzzwole - Huge Power
Pheromosa - Speed Boost
Xurkitree - Lightning Rod
Celesteela - Heatproof
Kartana - No Guard
Guzzlord - Gluttony
>>32583836
To add to this, the Japanese name of this Ability can be translated as "Superpowerful Claws."

>>32583963
>Lightning
Do you know this one pokemon called zygarde? well zygarde, you see, has a move called thousand arrows. It is a ground type move, yes, but here's the thing, it hits flying types. Just like that, you fly, and suddenly bam, a thousand arrows. Oh, but its not just flying types actually. Levitating mons, balloon mons, nothing escapes.
Now, the move alone has made zygarde a big deal, because it can hit everything with just it right?
Well now picture this: zygarde now has 173 base Atk instead of 100, and thousand arrows power is boosted by 20% for no real reason. Seems fair right?
That's how absolutely retarded this lightning ability sounds.


Out of the 7 abilities, only symbiont, absorption and blade are somewhat balanced, and I'd say blade's extra crit chance is too much. Lightning, beauty and blaster are needlessly powerful, and devourer might be alright if it was more consistent and less convoluted.

>>32584496
>Well now picture this: zygarde now has 173 base Atk instead of 100
And significantly less bulk
And a lower speed with now way to boost

>>32583741
Clear body
Unburden
Iron fist
Motor driving
Super luck
Heavy metal
Gluttony

>>32584594
>now way to boost
ever heard of z moves? choice scarf? being locked into a move hardly matters when it hits everything

>>32584608
>ever heard of z moves?
Oh wow a one time boost. Better hope hypnosis hits.

>>32583963
This shit is broken as fuck.

Solgaleo and Lunala just have renamed existing abilities. UB codenames would be the same.

Symbiont = Battery
Beauty = Intimidate
Absorption = Stamina
Lightning = Mold Breaker
Blade = Tough Claws
Blaster = Sheer Force
Glutton = Gluttony

>>32584630
It boosts regardless of whether the move hits you stupid fuck. "No way to boost" is objectively wrong. Z-Electric Terrain also boosts speed.

>>32584385
>Absorption: Contact moves restore HP by half of damage dealt

I was already running leech life with a life orb

>>32584648
But those "renamed abilities" negate Mold Breaker.

Symbiont: Battery that raises Attack as well
Beauty: -2 Attack
Absorption: +2 Defense and +1 Special Defense per hit
Lightning: Same as Turboblaze/Teravolt
Blade: 1.5x damage for contact moves
Blaster: Sheer Force with a 1.5x boost
Glutton: 2x HP gained from Healing Items as well

>>32584795
>But those "renamed abilities" negate Mold Breaker.
No they don't, what are you talking about? Their signature moves negate it. The abilities are carbon copies of Clear Body and Multiscale.

>>32584800
My bad. Only Shadow Shield negates it.

>>32584795
>renamed abilities negate Mold Breaker
>instead of doing the same for UBs, let's give them a bunch broken ass added effects

Stop

>>32584809
My bad, then.

Turboblaze and Teravolt are Mold Breakers that ignore held items, by the way.

>Xuritree
Simple

>>32584805
Oh, wait. A search in the wiki tells me that Full Metal Body negates Mold Breaker as well. Good to know.

Nihilego- Clear Body
Buzzwole- Unscarred (like Multiscale but for sattack instead of defenses, you do more damage if you're at full health)
Pheromosa- Quick Feet
Xurkitree- Motor Drive
Kartana- Defiant
Celesteela- Heatproof
Guzzlord- Mountain Muncher (Anything causing Rock-type damage to it heals it by 25%)

>>32583963
>blade
>not sharp edges

>>32584594
>And significantly less bulk
>And a lower speed with now way to boost
Oh, my bad, excuse me then. I was thinking about how easy is to scolipass speed/sub into a xurkitree, or give it a scarf, or use z-hypnosis or z-electric terrain, or just make a team dedicated to removing faster EQ users for it to sweep, but since xurki is less bulky and can't boost on its own, then I guess lightning is suddenly balanced.

No it isn't you stupid fuck. >>32584650 already told you this but I just can't believe how anyone would think this kind of ability is ok under any context other than giving it to absolute shitmons like unown or delibird.

>>32583801
>I prefer Xurkitree with Electric Surge.
And then it was uber.
