[Guide] Pokemon Showcase: Escartress [Competititve]

[Lord Windos]

Oh well, guess I'll have to plan around that, huh? Guess my next guide will be a little more interesting...

You probably don't need these links any more, but just in case...

The changes to its bases are listed below.  The mega is a tad dissapointing to me, just feels like a bland special attacker.  But what really leaves a poor taste in my mouth was the changes to normal Dramsama.  In order to balance M-Dramsama, they outright gutted normal Dramsama and left it on the street to die.  It's almost completely unusable now...

Also, you should join the breeders discord, I'd like to see some more competitive discussion.

Well fuck, one of my favorite pokemon has basically been turned into Zoroark 2.0, which is not very good...

What made it special (and good) was that it used to have decent speed, high health, good def, and good Special attack, which combined with Illusion, actually let it do its job well. It could be taken out quickly if it was STABed to death, but otherwise it could maintain its presence on the battle field, screwing with minds all the while. Now that its survivability has been nerfed to the ground, it has gone from one of the only usable ghost in comp. to just disappointing...


Honeslty, with these changes, I rather have the devs remove the mega form and revert the changes to Dramsama, as I rather have old Dramsama than have to write a guide in its disappointing state. Heck, I even though the mega was redundant, as its flashiness goes against its nature of espionage...

I mean, I still will, but now I have to describe on how in the past it was useful, but now it is just not, which will just be depressing...

Oh, and I am part of the discord, I just never go on there anymore due to college. Sorry bout that.
