    As many people think, I feel like Metagross should have been a defender. Not because only of the pkm in question which in main games have good defenses, but because I also feel like his whole nature of its moves is around shields and getting in the middle of the fight. Allrounders tend to do this, but this is a pretty certain thing defenders do best imo. I hope the big steel-y boi gets a better spot, especially with its unite move.

    • @vaughn_erich
      @vaughn_erich 7 месяцев назад +4

      I feel like it would’ve felt fresher or more thematic as a defender. As an All-rounder it feels boring to me. Plus I thought it’d be a way to get some people who don’t play defenders to play one.

      @lasanova110 7 месяцев назад +5

      I think the All-Rounder lore fits best for Metagross. Because it makes it similar to the original games where metagross is balanced with attack and defenses, does a ton of damage and can take a ton of damage.

      I agree for unite metagross should have been a defender 100% and yes meta gross has great defenses in the main series games but it also has great attack and even decent speed so I get the all rounder. Still though defender needed 😂

    Buffs I’d like to see:
    Slight Cool down for Meteor Mash and Magnet Rise
    Slow enemies hit with Gyro Ball
    Magnet Rise doesn’t lose speed during travel
    Fix the damn unite move. No unite should be cancelled by anything besides another unite. This unite is cancelled by everything. Even nothing. Just a wall… just a wall. And up the damage, lower the cool down.
    More healing from basic attacks.

    I was trying Metagross. It wasn't really working for me. I tried a super offensive build, but I felt less tanky than Machamp for some reason, and certainly Garchomp with their offensive builds. I tried a build with Resonant Guard, but I was really missing the damage. Then I noticed while playing Gyro Ball, Metagross's basic attack damage is generally better and more reliable than his special moves, so I put on a rapid-fire scarf. That did it for me. Scarf, Weakness Police, Atk Weight really works for me.
    I really like zen headbutt. The distance is great. It's a true dash, it goes through everything, and when you land the hit it is hard for pokemon to time their escape. Pokemon like Gengar and Zera who try to dodge around tend to get take the hit of zen headbutt regardless, but it depends on what you want. More than anything, I want a way to catch fleeing attackers. Magnet Rise doesn't accomplish the same task without x-speed, and x-speed is a good option because atk weight feels necessary to me, but I like potion. I want to last as long as possible to do as much damage to numerous pokemon as possible to make them super easy for everyone else to pick off if/when I die.

  • @JackSukeru
    @JackSukeru 7 месяцев назад +6

    Zen Headbutt being a skillshot does have one upside over Sure-hit Moves, and that's being able to target enemies in bushes.
    Its range is pretty good so a buff like a whiff leading to a complete cooldown reset after half the CD timer completes could help it more aggressively fish for getting the drop on enemies in bushes, and would overall make misses less punishing too. I dunno, it doesn't help with the move forcing you to commit so a defensive buff would probably also help. But I think leaning into the pros of skillshots would be more fun than having it feel like it should have been a Sure-hit Move.

  • @andrewgood7586
    @andrewgood7586 7 месяцев назад +26

    Gyro balls shield is 300% max attack for hitting just 2 enemies. If you stack an attack weight, at lvl 13, thats about a 1600 shield every 5 seconds, and then you add resonant guard on top of that.

    Im really enjoying Metagross. I like gyro ball though. Meteor mash is alright, but I prefer being able to weave in and out of combat.
    Magnet rise is definitely the play though.
    As for the unite move. Dont auto attack while youre scanning and targeting. Itll target the lowest hp mon scanned and it has an execute mechanic. Its meant to execute, not to engage.
    Definitely should be unstoppable though, and it should be able to bypass walls and obstacles.

    I think another reason why it has such a late evolution is because game-wise, Pseudo legendaries have a slow growth rate. Which is also why a lot of the pseudos in unite evolve around 5 and 9. But yea, from what I'm seeing it definitely needs a lot of quality of life changes. Sucks too since Metagross is one of my faves.

    • @frostymasso6508

      Goodra and Dragonite evolve at Lvl 8 and they get their UNITE move at Lvl 9.
      What about buffing the rest of the Pseudos with Lvl 8 evolutions? Garchomp and Tyranitar would love this change especially.

    I am struggling with Metagross. When I first got him I skyrocketted from 1250 to 1400, mostly by just playing a lot more than normal, but I found myself feeling super unimpactful. I'm pulling defender numbers and bottom damage compared to other attacker/all rounder/speedsters. every time I think there's a smart fight, my team bolts and runs away and I die for it. Maybe I do need to be playing metagross like a speedster more and not commiting for kills, but jeez that feels bad with a kit seemingly designed to brawl.

    I like to think that the unite move not functioning properly for a super computer Pokemon is like a meta commentary on the current AI's we have. Sometimes the AI would butcher the results so bad that it's funny and makes me believe that I get to keep my job for a little bit longer.

  • @orzhov12
    @orzhov12 7 месяцев назад +6

    Metagross will definitely get a rework to its Unite move similar to Charizard and Lucario. The fact that it's unite can be canceled through no fault of your own, just because the game forced you to run into a wall is clearly a development mistake and not something the devs intended.

    Metagross is the first Pokemon I've bought with gems because it's my second favourite mon. And at first, I agree he felt really bad. But as I've gotten into more of the flow of it's playstyle and figured out what items I like on it; it's not as bad as I initially thought but still underwhelming. I'm excited for the probable buffs.

    Yeah, I think everyone expected him to be a defender or able to destroy teams like Ttar. He probably feels a lot better after playing him less aggressively and should get buffs soon. I'm curious what they're going to do with Dragapult, they could nerf him a little but I'm beginning to think they won't.

    What irritates me is that Zen Headbutt’s tracking is more reliable than it’s unit move. Some interactions with the unite move leaves me wondering what happened and why I wasn’t refunded my unite move.
    By the way, if anyone is intending to buy Metagross with the 50% coupon, make sure you buy it alone and NOT the bundled skin. It goes without saying that the coupon is for a single item. You will receive *no* prompt when you click “obtain” to buy the skin bundle and it won’t apply it.
