    At 16:44 it is mentioned that the annihilape got too low, but the switch clocks needed to be desynched to prevent losing switch. What else could have been done to prevent taking that charm damage?

    • @HomeSliceHenry
      @HomeSliceHenry  Před 4 měsíci +13

      If I realize the clocks arent back in sync, i should bring in the ape right away and don't wait my clock, I get counters onto basti while they are locked, giving me a night slash to chip the wigglytuff and burn the remainder of my clock after they switch.
      If I can wait out my clock, I will, but if I can't, getting counters into basti is good as I can night slash wiggles to stall the rest of my clock :)

  • @NepNeppy
    @NepNeppy Před 4 měsíci +3

    One thing to note as Annihilape whether you are running Ice Punch or Night Slash into a dps heavy pokemon with low bulk like Shadows or Dragonair they will tend to almost shield everything thrown at them so having quicker charge is always a good thing as well if you are running NightSlash as it is 1 counter cheaper and also a chance to boost attack as well.
    Giving up Ice coverage against Gligar but in exchange you will charge at the same pacing as they do and you also win Charge Attack against them as well which does not seem bad either but another good benefit is while you cannot deal higher damage onto pokemon without that Ice coverage it can also put them down to farmdown range.

      Shadow ball is a good neutral move in a lot of matchups and can hit Cresselia, Medicham and other Annihilapes for super effective damage. The matchups where CC is good are matchups where Annihilape can probably win without it anyway.
