What ability would it be?
No hindering abilities, nothing too broken.
>>
>>58208547
Early Bird, Normalize, Gluttony.
>>
Speed boost, Wonder guard, Sheer Force.
>>
>>58208547
Moxie, Defiant, Wind Rider

Something to match Carracosta with its defensive abilities.
>>
>>58208547
the ability is the whole point of slaking, why the hell would I change it?
>>
Archeops: Emergency Exit/Wimp Out (I'd give it Wimp Out.)
Regigigas: Perish Body
Slacking: Comatose

Archeops keepps the theme of going "Oh fuck" if it gets hit, Regigigas basically gets a reverse situation where it starts at full power but faints in 3 turns instead of gaining full power after 3 turns, Slaking keeps the lazy theme ,even though it does step on Komalas toes in the process.

Still, not like any of them need it, maybe excepting Chops. Im giving this answer at a hypthetical Gunpoint.
>>
>>58208547
>Slaking
Insomnia to contrast Vigoroth and Vital Spirit, matches with Slaking's eye bags
>Archeops
Early Bird or Rattled
>Regigigas
Clear Body to match the classic Regi
>>
This gimmick never made any sense, he has higher attack when he flies clumsily in the air instead of when he's on the ground and can actually move around properly?
>>
>>58209201
gay freak thinks high bst mons with debilitating abilities is funny
>>
>>58208968
For fun.
>>
>>58209201
It made sense for Slaking but power creep immediately blew it the fuck out
>>
>>58208547
I wouldn't because I don't want the game dumbed down for campaignshitters

>>58210291
slaking is still good if you're not terrible at the game
>>
>>58208547
Fluffy, Clear Body, Gorilla Tactics (Just for meme, I don't know if this would make it OP)
>>
>>58208968
What’s that move that makes you always move last?
>>
>>58210295
>slaking is still good if you're not terrible at the game
sure
>>
>>58210350
Did you mean ability? If so it’s called Stall.
>>
Anything non-hindering on these guys would be broken. Even just no ability would already make them top tier, Gigas and Slaking would definitely get sent to ubers.
>>
>>58210482
I don’t give a fuck about smogon
>>
I'd say "fuck it" and give Archeops Speed Boost.
>>
>>58210482
I don't think that'd be the case with Archeops. I've tested it with other abilities in various formats, it's honestly mid by modern day standards.

Regigigas
>Held Item: Origin Plate
>Initially promoted as collecting Arceus' Plates
>Giving it to Arceus makes it Normal (aka nothing)
>However, giving it to Regigigas gets rid of Slow Start
I have two ideas. One that potentially broken. The other safer.
The safer one
>Origin Plate gets rid of Slow Start
>No new ability
>Origin Plate cannot be taken or lost during battle
The possibly broken one
>Origin Plate replaces Slow Start with Full Potential
>Full Potential gets rid of the recharging requirements for moves
>Debating Origin Plate should be knocked off or not (personally, I want the latter)
I was told that Full Potential would be broken since Regigigas knows Giga Impact and Hyper Beam (Normal STAB). But Giga Impact is the only one of the two that's physical and that's only one move that takes advantage of Regi's new ability. Plus, Regi deserves to be broken after so long and he may not even be that broken these days
>>
>>58210535
>it's honestly mid by modern day standards
Game Freak's idea of balancing is that Archeops not having Defeatist would be game breaking while a Pokemon blatantly made to be OP on purpose without any drawbacks is balanced.
>>
>>58210368
Yeah that one. That could work as a hidden that keeps the same theme
>>
>>58208547
>Archeops
Own Tempo
>Slaking
Gorilla Tactics
>Regigigas
Clear Body
>>
>>58210291
Slaking with no ability would easily be OU at least.
>>
>>58210482
Gigas is a fucking mythical and the king of five other legends, it should be fucking uber.
>>
>>58210863
Ehh maybe? I've tested it in multiple formats. It'd be pretty good in singles but shit in doubles.
>>
>>58208547
>Archeops
Anything else
>Regigigas
Anything else
>Slacking
Anything else

I doubt that. Power creep has gone a long way.

>Archeops
Limber, Keen Eye, Unburden or Quick Feet
>Regigigas
Analytic or Power Spot
>Slaking
Own Tempo or Iron Fist
