are we going to get a thread for SPL discussion similar to the one doubles has?
No; Island Scan Pokémon cannot SOS call, and hence cannot have Hidden Abilities. We'll have to wait until Bank.Is it possible to obtain a Flashfire Cyndaquil via island scan?
Evidently the Whimsicott didn't have Prankster, or it would have failed. No other part of that statement would lead towards Leech Seed having no effect; Poison Touch has 0 interaction with it and Leech Seed works on Poison types just fine.A whimsicott used leech seed on my alolan muk (who had poison touch). Is that a bug or is that intrinsic to the ability?
Aurora Veil is just Light Screen + Reflect in one move that checks for Hail first. Should be fine.Does aurora veil last after hail goes away if you're using light clay?
I believe Speed Swap only swaps the raw speed stat of the pokemon, discounting any boosts. So if your Raichu's speed if 150 (300 under electric terrain), and the other has 100, then after speed swap you would get 100 on you raichu, (200 thanks to e-terrain) and 150 on the other.If I have my alolan Raichu use electric terrain to get the speed boost from its ability, and then use speed swap so that another pokemon takes the raichu's speed stat, will the other pokemon get the raichu's speed boost or just the original stats? And will the speed swapped pokemon be affected by electric terrain ending?
They're not really comparable in that regard due to how different they are. Greninja can fulfill a variety of roles thanks to Protean and its wide movepool. Offensive, spike setter, all out attacker, suicide lead, ... Meanwhile, Ash-Greninja is a great late game sweeper. KO a low on health mon, and watch your ennemy's team crumble before you with nothing they can do to stop you.Protean vs Ash Greninja: which is better?
OU play.
It's used for this set:Is there anything that makes Salamence more viable this gen than from last gen? I was surprised to see it so high in the VR when it was unranked in ORAS.
Last gen it was outclassed by other dragon dancers, but thanks to Z-crystal Fly it now has a niche (as a DD moxie sweeper with a flying nuke). Check out the analysis here for more info. :)[SET]
