Would Moxie Infernape be more op than Speed Boost Blaziken?
>>59234696No
>>59234696>gets revenged killed by literally anythingNothing personel monkey.
>>59234696if it wasn't a mid mixed attacker then it would have never been a worse blaziken to begin with
>>59234696Adaptability would save it more. >>59234715It was a better Blaziken before the latter got Speed Boost so untrue
>>59234715t. zoomiebeing mixed is what made it good against skarmbliss in gen 4
>>59234996Nah mixed attackers are dogshit
>>59235022They are usually, but most mixed attackers are also slow. Infernape’s speed tier and STAB combo made it really good in Gen 4.
>>59234696The problem is moxie triggers 5 times max, less if they quit before then, and on KO. You have to work for those buffs and they go away on switch, never to return. Speed boost triggers every turn period. Did you switch? Just hang out a bit and don't die, ezpz, get the boosts right back. These aren't equivalent abilities, speed boost on Blaziken has always been absurd and I don't think any thought was out into it. Someone at the office said >Speed boosta roosta!And they ran with it.
>>59234696Infernape would still be viable if it's stats looked like this instead
>>59234696Buff Iron Fist, 1.5x boost like Strong Jaw and let it STAB regardless of typing so hot monkey dick has some solid coverage. Also give it Ice Punch, which is funny that it doesn't have
>>59235202This. Iron Fist is good on absolutely nothing so it's not a dangerous buff
>>59234996>skarmblissWho decided on that name when Blisskar was right there? Can't count on comp players to name anything right.
>>59235251skarmbliss genuinely sounds trannycoded and I never use that word
Just buff iron fist to 1.5 multiplier and he would have basically no drawback flare blitz and close comb with healing ,and with the Punching Glove they are even better
