    Chingling is a yellow, spherical Pokémon similar to a jingle bell. It has stubby arms and legs, as well as beady, black eyes. There are circular openings on both sides of its mouth. Inside its mouth is a red orb, which creates a ringing sound as the Pokémon moves. Additionally, the orb can be vibrated to create high-frequency, long-lasting cries to deafen its opponents. The sounds produced can be too high for people to hear, yet powerful enough to give them headaches. Atop its body is ring-like growth with a striped rope through the middle. The rope is red-and-white with short tassels on the ends.

    In I believe gen 6 VGC or maybe OU, there was a time where key targets were afraid of being tricked detrimental items such as a choice item, so they would actually run mail to ensure that their item could not be tricked into something worse. I think this also served as keeping knock off damage at 65 as well. Incredibly specific metagame conditions made mail an actual niche option on some mons and I think that’s great

    Delphox gets access to Switcheroo, so stealing a detrimental item with Magician then trading it to an opponent that doesn’t want it (or an ally that does) could be a good strategy
    if it weren’t for all of the situations where it could fail: Pokemon holding mail to stop thief strats, z-move user, Genesect’s drives, Silvally’s Memories, or Arceus’s plates, a Pokemon that’ll mega evolve or undergo primal reversion, Zacian or Zamazenta, a Paradox mon with a booster energy, Ogrepon with a mask, or *anything with sticky hold*

    This reminds me, one of my favorite Pokémon to use in a Singles team back when I was semi-competitive in Pokémon X was Hawlucha. The set I used though was Unburden, Power Herb, Sky Attack, Acrobatics, High Jump Kick, and a coverage move (I forget what it was).
    Get it in play at a good time, let loose an instant 140 base power Sky Attack, then after it gets its speed boost, keep spamming 110 Acrobatics and 140 High Jump Kick and go for the sweep.

    • @spiritwolf3103
      @spiritwolf3103 6 месяцев назад +1

      If they did then Delphox could use a Life Orb, powering up its moves without drawback. I support this though. The starters, save for a few, need an ability change, nothing too drastic, but most are inferior to Greninja.

    For a little while in Gen 9 UU, (I think) Hoopa Unbound would run eject pack and magician. Hyperspace fury would deal massive damage, active eject pack to switch out, and steal the enemies item all in one turn. I don’t know if this is a documented strategy in sample teams for UU at the time, but I definitely ran into it a lot on ladder when climbing

      I just checked Serebii and Lagging Tail, through Fling, has a base power of 10 and Iron Ball has 130, same as a Big Nugget, so Trick Lagging Tail/Iron Ball is better for slowing the opponent with Iron Ball also making flying and levitate Pokemon vulnerable to Ground moves, but it and Big Nugget can be used as a high power one use Dark move

    • @hatguy3119

      Fling does not give the opponent your item, so fling big nugget is better, since it does not slow you down like the iron ball.
