Two Rockruff 1 parents can (only) have Own Tempo. Them having the same species ID is like Shellos, but they don't breed like them.But if they have the same Species ID... wouldn't this mean no Rockruff can get Own Tempo, even if they have a "Rockruff 1" parent?
It's like hacking a Pokemon to get a different ability and try to breed with it, only for the babies to end up with regular abilities as the game only understands ability slots.
Or are they making an exception?
A Dark type Pokemon whose entire gimmick is buffing Dark type moves with its ability, no less.A Dark-type Pokemon with Ghost-type moves and no Dark-type moves. When did this turn into low-ladder Anything Goes?
Ah, I understand now. Own Tempo Rockruff is an alternate forme.Two Rockruff 1 parents can (only) have Own Tempo. Them having the same species ID is like Shellos, but they don't breed like them.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't this make Cryogonal the only Pokemon that can learn both Rapid Spin and Defog? (not counting Smeargle, of course)So, list of all Pokémon that now get Defog (Not adding NFE):
Cryogonal (I mean... sure..)
Realistically they just decided to peace up with gen 4 having Defog HM which was a pretty easy to learn ability.Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't this make Cryogonal the only Pokemon that can learn both Rapid Spin and Defog? (not counting Smeargle, of course)
Either way, good to see widespread hazard control, though plenty of those Pokemon that can learn Defog... I really can't get why they'd be able to learn it. I can guess they are blowing the fog away, but it's still kind of a weak reason...
Bummed by thatAlso, Suicune doesn't get Defog...
Thing is, Defog before this game was almost exclusively given to Pokemon that had wings.Realistically they just decided to peace up with gen 4 having Defog HM which was a pretty easy to learn ability.
Johto Trio lost them. All 3 get Inner Focus now.Bummed by that
Imagine Water Absorb Suicune with Defog, or Volt Absorb Raikou with Defog
"Who is this Mew and Latios you are talking about?"Defog Landorus-T rip meta
still going to remain unbanned anyway what's the point
There's also some from before Gen 5 that previously didn't get it but now do - Altaria, Ledian, Chimecho, Carnivine, Rotom, Volbeat, Illumise and Blaziken.GEn 5+ Pokemon with Defog only from tutor (if the move IDs (defog as 62) are correct) (going for the ones that were post HM defog)
