Santa Showdown
Premise:
This metagame is based upon the mechanics of Present, which can be found here (Can be edited if you feel the need):
Damage with 40 base power |40%
Damage with 80 base power |30%
Damage with 120 base power |10%
Heal the target by 80 HP |20%
What is this metagame?
The theme of this metagame is that no move actually has a set base power, it is determined by luck of the draw. Every time you or your opponent picks a move it is subject to randomization which produces an outcome. The type of the move will be determined by the original move it was supposed to be so Tackle would be Normal-type and Flare Blitz would be Fire-type.
Clarification + Clauses:
- Standard OU Clauses.
- Status moves work as normal and are not subject to the ramifications.
- Protean changes types in accordance to the move used.
- Secondary effects such as recoil and stat drops will still be connected to that move, making moves like Lava Plume preferable over Flamethrower.
- Multiple hit moves will have the same damage as they had before, but still have a chance to heal the opponent once.
- Abilities such as Blaze or Serene Grace still factor in.
- Accuracy of all moves stay the same.
- Moves with set damage won't be altered.
- Moves that lock you in, such as Outrage or Petal Dance will have different effects each turn.
Examples:
Altaria-Mega @ Altarianite
Ability: Pixilate
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Rage
- Dragon Claw
- Earthquake
- Dragon Dance
Rage is an attack which can actually become very good in the metagame, especially when matched with an Altaria. It gains the Pixilate boost, a STAB boost, and raises Altaria's attack when it is damaged by an opponent.
Chatot @ Choice Specs
Ability: Keen Eye
EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Naive Nature
- Chatter
- Echoed Voice
- U-turn
- Heat Wave
Chatot surprisingly gains a buff in this metagame as Chatter doesn't always deal the weak 65 BP and can even hit at 120 BP with STAB and confuse a foe. Echoed Voice works well in combination with Choice Specs as it does gain double damage per turn, as well as the randomized damage roll.
