One thing that wasn’t discussed is how budew affects matches by slowing down games. Even in this turbo format it can be tricky to finish 3 games in 50, with budew that will become even harder. Seems that budew was designed with Japan rules in mind with rest the world just left to figure it out. Maybe TPCI should make it best of 1 as well so that they are aligned with the game designers.
Seismitoad was op because it was a bulky pokemon for its time and could take 2-3 shots on everything with the right modifiers. Budew should be very fair and balanced for the game.
Ive been testing gardevoir with quad Jacq and its been working for me even pre budew format and its going to be better in budew format because the game is slower.
We lose cyllene so infinite strategies will be more difficult. Also tpci has been printing a bunch of supporter based switch effects recently so item lock plus paralysis isn't an auto win strategy. Also we have so much more supporter based search available for essentially everything at this point so if anything budew will cause decks to be built differently.
Can’t wait to see how budew interacts with Klawf. Not only could I slap a mochi + sneasler and item lock + 80 damage, but I’m also poison donking opponents budew turn one.
5:30 what balance? Basics are broken. Dragapult/Gardevoir are the only stage two that benefit from this mistake. Because they have innate draw power. 7:40 then dusknoir/dusclops was the problem not candy 9:35 Dragapult has gatekept chien Pao since it was released. 11:30 hopefully it's more testing than what the testing they did with dusknoir. 15:30 wise words, intelligent comment from Kevin. That's what will happen. Nobody is playing bibarel because of this. 😢 23:37 it's not players mistake. It's designers mistake, supporters can't be played going first so people prefer to see search items in their opening hand.
Budew will not create interesting gameplay. Budew is going to be toxic. But ill be playing pult thorns so i guess pokemon is heading towards more toxic gameplay like yugioh. hopefully it doesnt get to yugiohs level of just being centered around not letting your opponent play
@paradiseislands yes because negates, destroying cards, banishing cards, floodgates and interruptions on your opponents turn are not what win games in yugioh. I played until last year. Quit because it was so toxic. Ppl so afraid of their opponents even searching a single card. Whole games won off of one floodgate handtrap being played.

This is a good point, we'll probably see the tie rate go up if the play rate of Budew is high enough
Can Pokémon please hire him as a game designer?
That'd be fun

Good point, it goes beyond Brock as a good supporter option. Stuff like Surfer is potentially important now
If playing budew and use 4 cards which cards do you give up? Rhetorical question
Depends on the deck really

Please no 😭

this post was made by someone who doesn't play yugioh
