Title: spikes
Post by: zylonnick on December 04, 2010, 09:18:07 PM
I know stealth rock isn't usable in PU, But how about spikes?
I need it for my current strategy, otherwise I have to change it (again).
Let me know.

I think it's sad too, but we can't do anything about it. They have to leave it out to make the game more balanced.

Meh, until you realise that they can be very helpful... SR could deal up to 1/2 of your opponent's pokemon upon switching, making OHKOs easier.

Actually it can deal 1/2 damage if the pokemon is 4x weak to rock, like Charizard.

Its 50% for 4x weak, 25% for 2x, 12.5% for 1x, and 6.25% i think for .5x

Oops, right, I was scaling it to one level less in my mind :-[ . Correcting...

Oh and 3.125% for 0.25 effective ;)
