What ability would it be?No hindering abilities, nothing too broken.
>>58208547Early Bird, Normalize, Gluttony.
Speed boost, Wonder guard, Sheer Force.
>>58208547Moxie, Defiant, Wind RiderSomething to match Carracosta with its defensive abilities.
>>58208547the 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 BodySlacking: ComatoseArcheops 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>SlakingInsomnia to contrast Vigoroth and Vital Spirit, matches with Slaking's eye bags>ArcheopsEarly Bird or Rattled>RegigigasClear 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?
>>58209201gay freak thinks high bst mons with debilitating abilities is funny
>>58208968For fun.
>>58209201It made sense for Slaking but power creep immediately blew it the fuck out
>>58208547I wouldn't because I don't want the game dumbed down for campaignshitters>>58210291slaking is still good if you're not terrible at the game
>>58208547Fluffy, Clear Body, Gorilla Tactics (Just for meme, I don't know if this would make it OP)
>>58208968What’s that move that makes you always move last?
>>58210295>slaking is still good if you're not terrible at the gamesure
>>58210350Did 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.
>>58210482I don’t give a fuck about smogon
I'd say "fuck it" and give Archeops Speed Boost.
>>58210482I 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.
>>58208547Regigigas>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 StartI 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 battleThe 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 standardsGame 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.
>>58210368Yeah that one. That could work as a hidden that keeps the same theme
>>58208547>ArcheopsOwn Tempo>SlakingGorilla Tactics>RegigigasClear Body
>>58210291Slaking with no ability would easily be OU at least.
>>58210482Gigas is a fucking mythical and the king of five other legends, it should be fucking uber.
>>58210863Ehh maybe? I've tested it in multiple formats. It'd be pretty good in singles but shit in doubles.
>>58208547>ArcheopsAnything else >RegigigasAnything else >SlackingAnything else
>>58210938Honey Gather
>>58210863I doubt that. Power creep has gone a long way.
