    I think that once all of the types have been done for a hard-core nuzlocke it would be kinda cool to instead have a team that is weak to a specific type. (I.e. having a team full of pokemon weak to water.)

  • @miscellaneoof
    @miscellaneoof Před rokem +290

    After all the types are done, I would love to see a type lockout. You only get to use each type on a Pokemon once, meaning dual types use up both of its typings. I tried one recently and it was fun to prioritise which Pokemon would be the best choices for each type

    I have two theories about why Surskit didn't go for Bubble
    1- Viola isn't programmed with Highest AI level, which is weird since she is a gym leader
    2- Bubble has a 10% chance to lower your speed. We've seen a lot of times how AI chooses to use lowering speed moves only if the opponent is faster, regardless of this move being an actual attacking move, and since your Rhyhorn was slower than Surskit, she chooses to not use Bubble.

    • @supremeguy8963
      @supremeguy8963 Před rokem +2

      you might me be right but i also heard that the AI (atleast on set mode) choses always a move that one hits the enemy because it knows it but if it calculates that none of the moves can one hit (without crits which are (random)) it choses a random move

    • @simon3662
      @simon3662 Před rokem +9

      @@supremeguy8963 nah it's not like that. In the vast majority of cases, AI chooses the move that does the most amount of damage, If there's more moves that does the most damage or similar amount, then AI chooses between them randomly

      The speed control thing is actually a myth, they might prefer to go for other moves if the move can GUARANTEE speed control but it doesn’t actually prevent them from using that move. FlygonHG’s many runs of Rock-weak Pokemon in Gen III prove this. The actual reason why Surskit went for water sport is because it’s considered a setup move, and high AI levels prefer to use setup moves on the first turn

    Ok, hear me out. I am not 100% certain on this, but my friend does rom hacks and he told me the first gym has this weird mechanic imbued into it that makes the early game “less aggressive” and encourages new players to finish the game. How exactly does it work? Idk, but it definitely explains the dumb decisions by the AI.
    Imo nintendo probably read the complaints about gen 5 being too hard and decided to make gen 6 easier.
