I actually didn't quite like how critical hits ignore the opposing Reflect/Light Screen and the opponent's Defense/Sp. Defense stat changes.
Exactly. I honestly don't get it why do people say gen 5 has the "worst" starters stat wise.
I have a feeling it's because they all have a BST of 528, which is on the lower spectrum of stat totals for the starters. But yeah it's not a good reason to judge usability
What annoys me is how when you have friends on Serebii Forums that do a ton of stuff, so your timeline is full as anything.
How in XY (can't remember if this happens in ORAS too), when Pokémon in your party level up (other than the one currently in battle), it doesn't show you that nifty window with how much their stats increased (HP +1, Atk +2, etc.) No idea why they took that out.
To get back on topic, it also has to do with Serperior but in Gen 5, it was really annoying that its HA was unavailable even though it made it useful in competitive.

Ah, fair point. I can definitely see how it'd be obnoxious when you've got (potentially multiple) Pokémon gaining dozens of levels in a single battle.Ya know I half hate that it's gone but I'm half thankful it's gone. I can see how it's annoying for casual playthroughs but when your grinding Blissey bases that would be one extra thing to mash through. And that already takes enough time as it is.
If you think that's bad, what about how Chandelure was supposed to have Shadow Tag as its HA in gen 5? It was never released and now the HA is different .
I kinda remember that. Maybe they didn't want it to end up like Gothitelle or something.
Immunities to 2 attack types and one status with more potential firepower is quite a decent tradeoff over goth bulk, honestly both would be scary as chandelure still has a workable bulk and could have trapped fairies if it had its ability.
Ditto's Mirage Spots never appearing...
