And out of left field comes Darkfire! Nice to see you again!

Sets look good to me. We may not need an offensive set, but I wouldn't be opposed to it.

It's good to be back! I've used the offensive HP grass set and it works pretty well.

Sounds good to me. I think having it HP Grass is plenty of justification for two sets.

But wouldn't Hydration be good to have on one of the 2 sets? It's the HA and it's pretty good with Rest

Both sets look good for me but I agree with MC that one of the sets should have its HA. I think Hydration would work best on the bold set.

I agree, Set 1 ability changed to hydration.

I think Water Absorb is pretty much mandatory for Bold. Its main use is as a Wish passer and giving it something it can switch in on helps save turns you may have used to heal yourself.

Also a bit iffy on Charm. Its Eevee only but is it really worth relearning? It does get Stored Power which may go good with a baton pass team as its one of the few wish passers with Baton Pass. There is also Refresh which is another Lv Up move but I feel will get more usage than Charm.

Also welcome back Dark, havent seen you in ages

Agree with Blue, Water Absorb absolutely must be on the first set, and I'll go to the mat on that one.

Honestly, Hydration is one of the worst abilities now that permanent weather is gone. Water Absorb is so much better by comparison that personally I want both to be Water Absorb.

I agree with Blue and Bunsel, Water Absorb seems more useful for both sets than Hydration.

Also, welcome back Darkfire.

Welcome back Darkfire!

Water Absorb is indeed good for both sets but at at least you can breed one from Hydration.

Hydration is definitely usable and it's the HA which means normally it would be mandatory to breed it on at least one of the sets even if the other ability is better.

However, this is Eevee, so it's kind of a particular case, cause we have other Eevee's with the HA. This is the only reason why it might be fine to have Water Absorb on both if that's what most people want...

welcome back



i usually leave the actual set details to the smart people unless it's my topic or the topic is starved for attention, so back to half existing for me

So, water absorb on both sets?

Yeah Water Absorb is fine as said b/c we already have HA Eevees.

Also how do you guys feel about Charm?
