ForLackofaBetterName 0 Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Whenever I use a move such as mudslap, the other pokemon's accuracy isn't lowered. Or Bulldoze won't lower speed. Is it just rarer for moves to lower stats now? Link to post Share on other sites
Vinny 27 Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 No, it should happen all the time based on Bulbapedia. Bulldoze will always lower the opponent's speed. Any chances that the pokemon using these moves has the ability "Sheer Force"? Or that you're fighting something with "Clear Body"? Or it's just happening all the time?

DashingStorm 3 Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Moves broke in E12's release..? This isn't the first topic I've seen, actually. Link to post Share on other sites
ForLackofaBetterName 0 Posted June 8, 2014 Author Share Posted June 8, 2014 Good point! I hadn't considered the possibility of those two abilities (heh. that rhymed), but I recall using it against a pokemon that I know shouldn't have either ability. So wait, did anyone else report this sort of thing too? Or am I the first? Link to post Share on other sites
Vinny 27 Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Well, some other moves broke. The good thing is that the secondary effect is not happening, and the move is not broken entirely. Anyway, let me ask: Were you battling in the wild? Or was it under some field effect? I don't thin kany field effect should affect that though... Gotta read that Field Effect thing again.

ForLackofaBetterName 0 Posted June 8, 2014 Author Share Posted June 8, 2014 I think that I recall using the move in wild battles and in trainer ones, but not in any field effects. However, I recently used the move Bubblebeam, and the enemy's speed was lowered. So it might be some specific moves with this problem-- namely Mudslap and Bulldoze for me.

Vinny 27 Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 The best part is that i'm here, asking questions and i didn't test the moves myself. I'm going to test these two moves and see if they're broken in my game too. Link to post Share on other sites
Vinny 27 Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 omg a double post sorry .-. Hmm... i just tested both moves and they're working fine for me... so i'm going to say: Can you go and use those moves again and pay attention to see if they're really broken? Also: Is anyone else having a problem with Bulldoze or Mud Slap? Link to post Share on other sites
ForLackofaBetterName 0 Posted June 8, 2014 Author Share Posted June 8, 2014 Yep, Bulldoze won't lower the speed stat, and Mudslap won't lower Accuracy when I tried them again. Link to post Share on other sites
Vinny 27 Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 That's... different... I'm lost right now. So i'll leave this for Ame to see it. Sorry. Link to post Share on other sites
gutten_tag 0 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 those moves works fine for me @_@, even wild pokemons can do it (like rhydon) and it works everytimes Link to post Share on other sites
Global Mods Simon 38 Posted June 9, 2014 Global Mods Share Posted June 9, 2014 What pokemon are you using, out of curiosity? Link to post Share on other sites
ForLackofaBetterName 0 Posted June 9, 2014 Author Share Posted June 9, 2014 The pokemon that I'm using is Trapinch for both moves. So maybe it might be the pokemon, then? EDIT: Okay, so as it turns out, I'm just a really dumb person. The Trampinch does have Sheer Force, meaning that the stat changes don't occur. I'm so sorry for causing some trouble with this. :x Link to post Share on other sites
