Haven't seen any mention before now. This is *massive* if true, and also not a huge surprise not just from a balancing point of view but also from one of technical debt: it's easier to not code moves if you don't have to have every random mon that learns them from a 20+ year old event memorised.
No but mostly because there's no actual way to know if
1) it's the case
2) it's final
Even if that's how it would work now, it can also change by the time Home updates in 2023.
I do see it as possible since from what I learned, the data structure of movesets is actually different between gen 8 and SV, but as I said... things can change.
doesnt iron bundle also get spin or novery low hazard removal distribution and I can't tell if someone already made a list of the users of it so I did real quick

Mortal Spin?: Glimmora
Unsure if Mortal Spin acts like Rapid Spin but with a similar description, I think it's safe to assume
Yung Dramps
awesome gaming
How does centro know this? Has he found a way to "simulate" transferring in a Pokemon from a prior game to see this effect in action?
Also if every single game is going to have its own set of moves that you have to constantly erase every time you hop between games even in the same generation, well....after a certain point just auto cleaning is probably just QOL
I kind of suspect that the BDSP & LA situation really highlighted it to gamefreak so that's why they just pulled the ripcord
So basically I bought lgpe, bdsp and pla for nothing. Motherf...
Also, smogon metas including (or excluding?) natdex are going to be INSANELY different
Have you considered buying games to actually play them for fun instead
It doesn't appear to
You can use it twice in a row, however. So that's a nice trade for the taken Item slot (plus, it's never not using anything not named Population Bomb and Super Fang anyway, and neither require a Life Orb boost.)
Play games for fun? That's unpossible!!
Well...they were certainly the last Pokemon I expected to get this move
It does seem like a nice fit competitively when paired with Regenerator. Also, Kanto Slowking has a nice set of resistances that covers a lot of Ice types' weaknesses. It could be a great pivot for Snowstorm teams.
Only if you didn't enjoy playing them
It's because it could use pantsWell...they were certainly the last Pokemon I expected to get this move
Well i did enjoy arceus for itself, but enhancing the main games aint shabby either
Oh nice.
I expected something like this being a thing, though I expected it to be a DLC thing. Nice to know it's in the base game.
Salamence is interestingly one of the only Pokemon in the game besides Wattrel line and Bombirdier to get Dual Wingbeat. Neat.
The longest time between set-up and spike ever
The true tech will be Ice Terastal Slowking and/or Slowbro.Well...they were certainly the last Pokemon I expected to get this move
