Even if you run banded explosion, it just becomes another play to predict, especially if you use ghost types. It really isnt an issue

By "let's out a pointed stone" do you mean it uses Stealth Rock?

Yeah Galom , that's what I meant. Since they say pointed stones were scattered when SR is used, then I thought I'd use that term |

People would just run max attack explosion with focus sash and getting up rocks while doing 30-100% is really great for pokemon that barely see usage and could be a huge threat for the lower tiers. (This happened a bit with Gallie-mega as this was a huge reason for it being banned from PU/NU. It was more because of the sheer power of explosion+glaciate did though.) It should be compatible with explosion because how little the attack stat of the pokemon you are giving it to. @hernonchad do you know how few ghosts there are in UU? Chandelure and thats it. Not only that but chandy gets bopped by a STAB rock slide if you can predict the switch. The pokemon isnt bad if it is walled by a certain type it just needs to find an environment where it can fit in. (Like stoutland) I guess this is called a "niche". Also it'll rise when it's strong, or just get banned. I don't see why you should add random limitations when it's not necessarily needed, especially when many other Pokemon can do great stuff too. |

Unique, fairly interesting, and gives an effective way to get SR up in Doubles to counter Mega Charizard Y without having to waste a turn. Also gives a boon to some Rock-types, which kinda suck in general. Approved 2/2. Congrats, jaywad. |

Is anyone against changing this to: "When the opponent makes contact with the Pokemon, the user chips and scatters spikes on the ground." from it's current effect? Devoxys, kizzo212, pokemonvortex |

I prefer the current effect.

I also prefer the current effect.
Stealth Rocks seem more like chipped stones than spikes do.
