stealth rock is just a thing people gotta deal with

it's a viable strategy that you just have to prepare for

right

and the way to prepare for it is to straight-up not use some Pokemon

that's the thing

it doesn't break the game

it just radically alters the viability of a pretty big swath of Pokemon

i'd like it if everyone just used stuff you can do in gen 5 wrt tm's and stuff

because i can't keep track of 3 generations of move tutors and tms and shit

(and because fuck stealth rock)

so enable the online option that does just that

not exactly

the option bans anything raised in Gen 3 or 4

it'd be kinda bullshit if we did that as a regular thing

I'm digging the hell out of that ghost jelly

Dichotomy

I seriously can't get over how awesome the spooky candelabra is

Speed Racer

not gonna lie a big part of how much I love the chandelier/candelabra/chandelabra is the fact that he's got the same face as Death does in Problem Sleuth

look man

I use scyther

I know how you feel

and SR isn't a move I would typically use, I'm less about setup and more about hitting people in the face

but it's out there and it's not THAT hard to deal with, there are enough spinners around that there's no reason you couldn't have one on your team

I mean we could all agree to ban stealth rock in battles here, and that'd be fine with me, but I'd rather have it on the occasional team where it's appropriate and just deal with it like any other thing

yeah I'm not against the move in and of itself

I just think it's way too widespread

and they've fixed that in Gen V

but it doesn't matter because you can bring stuff in from Gen IV

stealth rock is just straight-up bullshit, especially with the prevalence of monotyped/themed teams around here

spikes and toxic spikes yeah, those are entry hazards I'm fine with
but stealth rock is just so easy to set up and so devastating to so many awesome dudes that it makes me froth with rage
