Existing in the code and being culled is effectively the same thing as just straight up not exisiting / replaced entirely with snowscapeSo apparently, Snowscape is a separate move altogether, and Hail still exists in code, just culled. I wonder what this means for NatDex.
(honestly, in my opinion NatDex shouldn't bring back any moves, only Pokemon, since bringing back moves leads to all these messed up interactions)
Might be a stretch but it also looks like a candidate for a unique held item.It could make for a nice defensive check to stuff and if it has good utility it may still end up decent.
I mean, I assume they'll chalk it up like how fairy type replaced normal: irreversible change. otherwise it'll just become a pet mod (and it's already on thin ice imo)honestly, in my opinion NatDex shouldn't bring back any moves, only Pokemon, since bringing back moves leads to all these messed up interactions)
Yes, but not for NatDex.Existing in the code and being culled is effectively the same thing as just straight up not exisiting / replaced entirely with snowscape
Personally I just want to know if its an actual stat boost or a multiplier (x1.2, 1.3, 1.5,etc)Does anyone know the specifics of how the paradox abilities work? Is it a +1 boost anytime it switches in with the respective condition active? Limit once per game like intrepid sword nerf? Is booster energy consumed to give the boost?
Home.quick question, if anyone knows. Delphox, and the other Kalos starters. are they home transfer only or can you get them in game?
Thank you!! If I can ask a follow up: since this is not a stage boost and Booster Energy is consumed, does the boost remain in effect for as long as the Pokémon is on the field?The paradox abilities give a boost of an uncertain amount (it's not a stage boost, but the game announces when it activates), and wears off when the respective field effect disappears. Booster Energy is a consumable.
For the case of NatDex, I would personally treat any cases of Hail in a learnset to be replaced with Snowstorm.Yes, but not for NatDex.
that argument is definitely helped by the fact that moves that used to mention hail mention snowstorm.For the case of NatDex, I would personally treat any cases of Hail in a learnset to be replaced with Snowstorm.
At least until proven otherwise.
Since I'm only basing this off what I saw on stream, I don't know the actual answer to this. My thinking is that it does, but I don't know whether or not it gets deactivated by the field effect disappearing.Thank you!!

it's subjective, they can't do that. since it's technically a separate move, they have to leave itFor the case of NatDex, I would personally treat any cases of Hail in a learnset to be replaced with Snowstorm.

If it's a consumable item that means that paradox abilities are garbage. One time boost is p weak.The paradox abilities give a boost of an uncertain amount (it's not a stage boost, but the game announces when it activates), and wears off when the respective field effect disappears.

NatDex is Smogon copium. It should've never existedSo apparently, Snowscape is a separate move altogether, and Hail still exists in code, just culled. I wonder what this means for NatDex.

That's just to further incentivize you using them alongside the box legendaries. Or Torkoal. Or Groudon on the restricted format. Though I dunno if Future Paradox will really use Pincurchin. They don't even get a 2nd restricted option that has SurgeIf it's a consumable item that means that paradox abilities are garbage. One time boost is p weak.
Someone in this thread said it was a 50% boost from what they saw but it's hidden in the same way Ttar gets the boost from sand.Since I'm only basing this off what I saw on stream, I don't know the actual answer to this. My thinking is that it does, but I don't know whether or not it gets deactivated by the field effect disappearing.
It looks a bit like a glaive with a blade on both ends, but it could be based on something elsewhat do they call that weapon, i wonder
