Quick question


WolfgangDamien

Recommended Posts

So I did a match making the other day and had a match that pinned my 6x31, 252 speed, jolly Dodrio (no speed boost hold-item) vs a Feraligator. 

 

The Feraligator outsped my Dodrio. 

 

I looked up the stats and theres no way any Feraligator could outspeed my perfect speed-natured Dodrio by normal stats alone. 

 

So my question is, can any hold item in the game make a Feraligator faster than a perfect speed natured Dodrio? or is this a bug?

Swift Choice Band

How much speed boost does that give? Theres about a 25 point difference in max speeds, thats a pretty good spread to cover. I didnt think even the swift choice bands would make such a slow mon outspeed one of the fastest.

+50% boost, for example if an Adamant max speed Fera is holding one, it increases its speed from 130 to 195

keep in mind that like any other choice band it has a drawback of locking your pokemon onto a single move

Unless you switch out that pokemon ofc

yes, that i do know. the one mon Im thinking of in particular is already using a choice band so its not a big switch in strategy. I may have to redo some evs though.

Unlike choiceband swift choice band just boosts speed meaning you're losing a 50% attack boost if you do decide to use speed choice band

I know that too. I was thinking of putting it on my comp Machokes, who really needs more speed than power.
