Paralysis has been nerfed: the chance of being unable to move is now only 12.5% instead of 25%
>>59142657Sleep has also been nerfed
>>59142664amogusisters…our trans right one trick poney…
How does PP work now?
>TW nerfed to 90 accuracy>speed drop nerfed to 50% instead of 75%>Full para chance nerfedWhy does GF hate paralysis so much?
>>59142664>rest is now consistentnice
>>59142690Pokemon isn't designed around being an RPG anymore; it's a failed attempt at being an esport. Paralysis is no longer meant to be a tool for NPC enemies to wear you down in long routes, nor a viable strategy to potentially cheese a higher leveled endgame opponent.
>>59142657That's a good thing, it should lower you speed more though
>>59142657I hate this change. If you want to nerf the bad para chance then remove it altogether, putting a 12.5% is still relying in RNG. Nerfing from 25% doesn't actually make it more consistent because all it takes is one crucial turn for para to matter.
>>59142690It's absurd that it took until Gen 7 for it to finally start receiving nerfs. Sleep was adjusted every gen, freeze received nerfs between Gens 1-2 and 2-3, poison has never been unbalanced, and burn was nerfed two gens after it started to become a problem,
>>59142664Then remove Toedscruel's garbage ability
>>59142664How does early bird work then?
>>59142690Paralysis is fucking obnoxious. Way too many Pokemon get Thunder Wave and having even halved speed is crippling for anything offensive.
>>59142657>>59142664Nerf all status so everyone can be a little timmy spamming STAB moves non-stop. Bravo
Freeze was also nerfed
>>59142917Does ILCA even play Pokémon? They made freeze statistically worse than Sleep.>Sleep: 1 turn guaranteed, 33% in the second turn>Freeze: 25% in the first two turnsThere's around 44% chance to break free from Freeze and 33% from sleep during the two turns.
>>59142978They saw all the kvetching yawnie does about how ice is actually "a really good type" and unironically believed it was in need of nerfing because of it.
Leech Seed nerf feels dumb
>>59142917Should've just replaced it with Frostbite
>>59142690The hate is justified, but it's a shame they only addressed the actual problem with paralysis only after 30 years of this franchise existing.
>>59143074Frostbite is gay, especially for a status condition that only ever has a chance of happening.
>>59143095Well DUH if Frostbite was only going to be applied by current odds, it'd be worse.What people also want is for Frostbite version of Burn moves like Wow and Lava Plume.
>>59143118Still gay. Stop trying to make the two offensive stats equal.
>>59143043Actually it's weird>text says it deals 1/16th>seems to still do 1/8th
>>59142917>sleep but worseAuto freeze move when?
>>59142664Good changes for the three statuses desu.
