is allowing wobbu and wynaut a good idea

Ohhh right. I was gonna do something about it then forgot.

I considered it since they were banned in the free-for-all.

Opinions?

I feel like wobbuffet's main niche is trapping. In a 1v1 format, that's already a deadweight.

Also, since wobbuffet is dead slow, encore trapping is awful because you can't switch out into a counter.

You can encore him into a swords dance, sure, then follow up by not fighting back, and then get one-hit ko'ed after he's completed his setup.

Even if you can't ohko wobbu at +6, you can always wear him down to say 40%, tank that counter/mirror coat damage and then start setting up.

 

tldr anything that sets up destroys it. Except maybe like curselax because it's slower.

And I mean, in 1v1, everything has counters and doesn't. Often the outcome is determined at turn 1 by the matchup.

Wobbuffet's annoying sure but I don't think it wins over a large proportion of matchups in a 1v1 without support.

And I think it'd be amusing to see a wobbuffet win a match and wouldn't be particularly cheap, provided how safe carrying a setup move normally is in all matchups.

 

But yknow if anyone would rather have it banned, please do speak up with reasoning and I'll reconsider fairly easily, I just think it's fun to have it and not particularly broken.
