Anyone else think U-turn and Volt Switch completely ruin this game?

No need for predicting or making interesting plays lol all you gotta do is press u-turn lol and enjoy all the momentum for free

Git gud. Volt/Turn can be exploited if you, I dunno, predict or make interesting plays.
>>
That's called a switch you retard
>>
Are you 8? Learn to predict/deny switches.
>>
>>32938603
No.
>>
>>32938621

U-turn/Volt Switch differs from switching in that if you move last, you get to bring something in for free
>>
>>32938620
>>32938621
there is no counterplay to a slow u-turn or volt switch

if I switch, the enemy can then switch in the counter for free
if I dont I risk losing a mon

Its worse with volt switch because atleast electric is a good typing

if the enemy gets a chinchou out on my staryu Im fucked either way, either I take the volt switch and die or give the ememy momentum

its fucking dumb
>>
>>32938631
Teach me then, oh grandmaster of Pokemon
>>
>>32938642
>get to bring something in free if you move last

Or, you know, the Pokemon already out gets hurt or possibly KO'd
>>
>>32938657
Do you predict U-Turn? Use protect.

Wow! Hard!
>>
>>32938645
>there is no counterplay to a slow u-turn or volt switch
A: Carry unusual coverage to either kill the slow turner, or the thing it switches to after you switch. Don't use Smogon Copypasta except as a basic frame
B: Use Sneaky Pebbles/Spikes
C: Run it yourself
D: Use Ladder Helmet/Ground and Volt Absorb mons
E: Phaze things out to disrupt it
F: Bitch about it on 4chin
>>
>>32938685

>The Pokemon you have out doesn't have Protect

wow

>>32938603
they need to be buffed honestly, especially volt turn, it should ignore ground typing if thousand arrows is allowed to ignore flying type immunity
>>
>>32938848
ya but thousand arrows makes sense
since yknow
theyre arrows
>>
>>32938848
>This random TM move should totally receive the same treatment as a unique move of a legendary pokemon that is thematically appropriate!
>>
>>32938848
Why the fuck can't Return hit ghosts? It should ignore ghost typing if Thousand Arrows is allowed to ignore flying type immunity
>>
>>32938685
wow
genius
>>
>>32938930
that would be true if scrappy didn't exist
