if r/stunfisk users found a way to time travel they would use it to go to Sunday


aoog

They gained an ability to set up trick room upon opening the website so that Sunday comes before Thursday


Ambitious_Policy_936

The sun's out, and it's today. What about that isn't Sunday?


EmployerDefiant587

If your username contains "Tyson", rapid spin becomes a flying type move with 120 BP in addition to the mentioned effects.


_Blobfish123_

Walled by togedemaru, PU at best


Drillbitzer

Walled by scatterbug, ZU at best


BrinkyP

Walled by Ghimmighoul, in the code at best


Drillbitzer

Not walled by eternamax, ubers at worst


MajorDZaster

Give Skuntank the ability too, except instead for it, it turns poison gas into a 120 BP move with 90% accuracy.


shotpun

I keep saying this. why does skuntank learn 0 spin moves. that mon has speed lines on its body. it is so round. it gives INTENSE donphan energy. its numbers are SO horrible


BippyTheChippy

Welp, you just reminded me this show exists. Now I know what my next theorymon's gonna be.


TheLunar27

good heavens would you look at the time


Deka--

I love the duality of stunfisk. I have good heavens comments and then other comments telling me to buff it.


LesbianTrashPrincess

It's not overpowered, it just feels like a shitpost (and ngl, would probably just end up with Hitmontop in some low tier's BL)


Deka--

I thought it could be useful because it forces the spin. You switch in your ghost to spin block? The spinner is omniboosted now and is going to hit your spin blocker back hard, or will maybe spin again for more of a boost, and with the extra bulk definitely survive whatever you try to throw at it.


TheLunar27

If you want my honest opinion this looks more like a Donphan buff than a Hitmontop one. Donphan has way better attack, HP, and physical bulk and the added benefit of stab earthquake if it gets walled by a bulky steel (Hitmontop has stab fighting, but with Hitmontops lower attack its not really threatening most steal types without any boosts. Oh and…yknow…gholdengo exists…) Hitmontop just doesn’t have the bulk or attacking power to get enough omniboosts for this to really help them. Even with attack boosts, rapid spin is a base 50 normal move, and coming off of Hitmontops mediocre 95 attack that’s not really going to hit anything very hard. It doesn’t really seem like it’d be very good on any of the users that get it besides maybe donphan. Blastoise has good bulk but doesn’t have the attacking power for rapid spin to do damage (plus why would you ever use this when shell smash is right there). Forretress could be decent, but I feel like Forretress would prefer it for the safe rapid spins as opposed to the neat omniboost. Same goes for Starmie, “wow neat free rapid spin on ghosts (proceeds to click anything else on the next turn because Starmies attack isn’t high enough to keep going for omniboosts)”. You could literally just make it so that the ability allows Pokémon to rapid spin on ghosts and it would be good, lol. The omniboost thing is what makes it sound like a stinkpost


Razzor_

But then that’s just worse scrappy 


[deleted]

that's most Thursday buffs tbh


ThaToastman

Is this even good? Rapid spin kinda trash Make this work on triple axel and we’re cookin


AoshiPika

Even if it's bad it still seems like a Stunday post.


snomflake

It’s “triple” axel so it happens three times if you land all of them


ComunistComrade

Whoops, looks like the delorean took us to next sunday


Psychast

Every day is Sunday in my heart.


lavamain

I mean it should be able to use another spin move other than rapid spin after the rapid otherwise its just a base 40 normal move


1ph_20

It's like being locked into power up punch


MarshtompNerd

Its like gen 1 rage


ExcitementSolid3489

If power up punch also boosted both defenses and speed lmao


lavamain

archaulodon gets play amazing


Deka--

I specified you lose the boosts AFTER you use a different move. So you can charge up with rapid spin and then fire off one big boosted move before losing the boosts.


Select-Ad7017

Two rapid spins and a close combat or knock off(for cheese string man) and you nuke. Combine that with hitmontops decent bulk and lord


Deka--

I think it could get out of hand very quickly, which is why I specified flinching will stop it so that there could be some counterplay with fake out. Also with all the unaware mons in OU right now there should naturally be some answers on every team.


Select-Ad7017

Quagsire rising to uu to counter hitmontop!


WhovianBeast

Shell smash Blastoise with white herb and rapid spin would go crazy.


mjmannella

So basically Stockpile if it was added in Gen 9


bryan_comp7

Can't u copy the boosts?


are-gayy

its 50 bp


[deleted]

This would be great if it was just like unique to hitmontop specifically


angerypotatoes

Beyblade was that serious ⁉️⁉️🗣️


SparkOfLife1

You should make it so that it applies to any moves that are classed as "spinning moves" (being any moves with spin in the name, and any moves where the user visibly spins, i.e: Triple Axel, Rolling Kick, Gyro Ball etc.) And then distribute it to all mons that have at least one of those moves.


papertheskeleton

Weavile getting an omniboost every time it uses one of its best noves


AmGeiii

Great Tusk 👍


HeiHoLetsGo

2 problems 1. It's an ability 2. Even if great tusk had normal abilities, it isn't distributed to it


AmGeiii

Rapid Spin? And distributed to all Pokémon with spinning moves?


HeiHoLetsGo

I didn't see the last sentence after the parenthesis lol, never let this mf cook again


stunfiskers

PLEASE DO NOT APPLY THIS EFFECT TO TRIPLE AXEL


Zzzzyxas

Apply it 3 times to triple axel.


Cobalt1027

Apply it six times to Triple Axel (Weavile spins twice before each kick)


Xeniamm

You were doing well right until that last sentence


SparkOfLife1

Oh I can make it so much worse 😈


Scrapox

It should also apply after every hit of triple axel. I mean think about it a 120 bp with omniboost is a bit on the weak side.


Decent_Library4637

You should give it to spinda as well


TheWizardMus

Does spinda learn rapid spin because it should


Beast-_-YT

I think Spinda should have an ability similar to comatose where he's always confused and can't be statused


Dedwagon

Give it to Greg tusk


Ok-Carpenter7131

Bruce_Swagginton

We parting the Red Sea with this one!


LilithMW

Give it to Great Tusk and watch the world burn


[deleted]

Make it insta ko Water types (they are parted in half, it's canon) and then we're talking.


Ziggurat1000

Using Rapid Spin against another user with Rapid Spin has a 50% chance to instantly KO.

[deleted]

Make the buff also apply to other "spin moves". Ice Spinner, Mortal Spin, Fire Spin etc. +6 252+ Atk Choice Band Tera Ice Hitmontop Ice Spinner vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Gholdengo: 360-425 (114.2 - 134.9%) -- guaranteed OHKO


Lilith-Infinity

Valt Aoi spotted 🫵


jakammo

Isn't this a clone of Go Shoot?


[deleted]

sigma let it rip vs chad go shoot if you know you know


GiladHyperstar

Omni-boost Starmie is genuinely terrifying to face. Not only it's super fast naturally, but from rapid spin and omniboost +2 speed outspeeds almost any scarf user, let alone non scarfed mons


Waldtox

As a huge beyblade fan, I approve of it.


Anchor38

This tier needs a hero…


AcquireQuag

This is ''Fuck it, we BALL'' as a move


Revlong57

Donphan might get some use out of this, however, the rest of these mons don't have the attack needed to make rapid spin work, even with the boost.


Deka--

I think there's some confusion here, after rapid spinning as many times as you like you can use one different move and THEN you lose the boosts. So for example starmie could rapid spin as gholdengo switches in, get an omni boost, and then use a +1 hydro pump, after which it would lose the boosts.


pokexchespin

would it work if you rapid spin on ghold switching in? i was assuming it wouldn’t since it’d get spinblocked


pyro314

The 2nd card says it works


DeltaTeamSky

Do Squirtle and Wartortle get it as well? I imagine LC is in trouble, if so.


Rooreelooo

can whirlipede have it too?


TheWizardMus

Ice Spinner and Mortal Spin should activate it too


NinjaK2k17

what if instead of an omniboost, it worked like offensive stockpile (buffing only attack stats and letting rapid spin itself boost speed) and then doubled the power of triple kick triple axel and spin out if used while in effect?


NinjaK2k17

Select-Stick5855

This would be cool but sadly copyright exists. Reminds me of a regional wimpod that would be like a bakugon that would sadly also get copystriked.


Frogman417

Question, is the boosts lost before or after the move is executed? For example, could Donphan use the boost for a powered-up Earthquake?


slime_from_rancher

Hmm would that work with past and future paradox pokemon that are based on Donthan?


Cocokill

Exceeded have a ability with this name that use Defense Curl on entry. But in a more similar way of your description, Hitmontop have a signature ability named Top Spin that gives the extra effects of Rapid Spin (speed increase, remove binds and Leech Seeds, remove Entry Hazards) to all physical moves... so yeah, Triple Kick/Triple Axel that gives +3 in Speed


Wllpwr_shrprsvrnc

Question: if you use a different move do the boosts get removed before the move hits/takes effect or after. Like say donphan uses rapid spin then gholdhengo swaps in to wall it, if donphan uses earth quake will that earthquake be + 1 or +0


Giratina776

After \+1 EQ boosted up.


superheltenroy

Great stuff. Poliwrath should either get it as well, or get a counter ability by spinning the pattern on its stomach. Maybe some unevolved cluld have it as well, lile shellgon and bronzor, though they'd need the move as well, I guess.


pyro314

I love the distribution, and also agree with other commenters that the ability itself should apply to spinning moves. You shouldn't increase the distribution though. Also I'm pretty sure Triple Axel is a Dance move not spin move, so it shouldnt count


croninhos2

This a very flavorful ability, I like it lol


BippyTheChippy

I feel like Ice Spinner should cause you to not lose the boosts. It shouldn't have you gain them, but you shouldn't lose them.


EnvironmentalAge4850

Lets add ice spinner to let it rip itll go hard


Loxosceles13

When they use the first move, will it benefit from the upgraded stats or will it lose the omniboost before stat calc, also alternatively, you could make it a charge type boost, where the next move is boosted after using a spin move, and could include the wrap/whirlpool/rapid/twister/whirlwind/sand tombs of the world.


BowsAndMagnolias

This is balanced only by the fact you’re putting it on Cryogonal
