4th Gen Do you like 1 hit ko moves in wifi battles?

[Heartless33]

I only hate it when someone uses it on me. I only like it when I am using it so I guess it counts as both, I like it then I don't.

While yes, it can be annoying, the move altogether can be avoided by good planning. It's only 30% and yes, its a bit cheap, but it gives something to those that don't take it as seriously as the rest. I mean, its not everyday you get Killer Laprases, god help the community if they were given Lock On as well. On Wi-Fi, I don't care if they use it, if they're feeling lucky, then go for it.

To be honest, they don't bother me. The only time I hate them is in the battle tower, because of 'Tower hax'. Any other time, the person usually ends up wasting thier 5PP, only for it to miss altogether, or work once or twice. Hardly a game shifter, really, given most players would just switch to a sweeper and KO the OHKOer with a strong attack while it keeps missing.

The only 'Competitive' clauses I really use is the evasion one, and, in the case of my jumpluff-using friend (I hate that annoying little puffball...), sleep-clause.

Yes and no. If someone is dumb enough to take the risk and miss im fine but if it hits I would probably complain! =^.^= lol

I've always been a strong proponent for 'anything goes' in battles. To be honest, I don't battle people who lay out this ultimatum of noobish rules (sleep clause, tiers, etc). I don't know what happened to pokemon battles, but they used to be really fun. That's why I mostly stick to either the battle tower or my friends in real life.

"noobish rules"? It's only the most inexperienced players who don't understand why they help foster a competitive environment.

Naw, I think they are pretty cheap.

 

[Nnoitra Jiruga]

I agree. No one hit ko's plese...
My friend had a hax'd Deoxys with a Sure Shot Ability (I think that's what it's called...) All of his moves were one hit ko's so they never missed
D :

I was going to reply but I couldn't be bothered. Anyways, they aren't cheap. I can't say I like them, but I don't hate them. It's more of a dislike. Answering the question of whther they should be used in competitive play or not. No. If those 10 year olds who think that having a pokemon with No Guard, No EV's and No Good Nature think that OHKO moves are awesome, they can go ahead and attack me. Chances are I'll just use Protect (it still has 70 accuracy) then find out what it is that they have and switch to an immune pokemon. Then the 10 year old will say "Noob, you have Protect." Obviously the best answer to something lke this will be "At least I have some guard. No Guard isn't a bad ability, just use it with stuff like Stone Edge, Cross Chop, other competitive moves please.

I dislike those moves myself but thats why they have a 30% hit rate or so I believe. I'm just unlucky enough to get hit nearly every time. So in Wi-Fi battles I wouldn't mind them so long as it wasn't overused until a Faint Status occurred. I myself avoid teaching my pokemon them because I love having nice long battles.

I hate them OHKO moves XD Its like... works when you dont want it to XD eg: switch to your DDer Gyarados and >.> Horn Drill.

 

[Ash&pikachuarethebest]

No because it is a cheats way of winning and boring. If you want to win then you should learn to EV train ur Pokemon effectively like everyone else.

 

[~MasterMind~]

I like them when iam using them not the opponent :P
