It does have much more options on the Physical side, but it honestly ain’t going to be that impressive off Sceptile’s mediocre Base Attack of 85.Ĭonsidering the wealth of better Grass Type alternatives out there, like Venusaur, Kartana, and Rillaboom, Sceptile is firmly relegated to niche category. Despite being largely classified as a Special striker, Sceptile’s Special move selection is rather lacklustre, with only the likes of Dragon Pulse and Focus Blast as notable coverage options. Losing its Mega Evolution really hurts, considering the sheer viability of Regieleki, as well as the loss of one STAB option. Out of all the fully evolved Hoenn starters, Sceptile is probably the worst hit by the shift to Generation VIII. It regulates its body temperature by basking in sunlight.” This Pokémon carefully grows trees and plants. In PvP getting to charge moves faster is almost always the preferred option.“In the jungle, its power is without equal. So in this case go with the spammier option. Dynamic Punch, long considered a top charge move, is 2.16DPE and Close Combat is now 2.67DPE and also has a debuff. Cross Chop for Machamp is just the fighting version of Dragon Claw. Dragon claw does 1.71DPE with STAB btw, while Outrage does 2.20 and Draco Meteor does 2.77 which is really high for a nuke move, and why they added the debuff to it. That's the same energy requirement as Dragon Claw. Leaf blade is the second best grass charge move in the game, and happens to fire off for only 35 energy. Leaf Blade oddly breaks the mold, and because it is faster it's generally preferred on Sceptile.Īs a comparison, a few grass charge attacks:
Community day moves have been sought out for PVP in part because they tend to be faster-charging moves that also do tremendous DPE. You want to spam a bunch of charge moves like cross chop or dragon claw? Okay, but you're choosing to be less efficient with your energy. Decent but not great imo.Īnyways, typically fast-charging moves have significantly lower total damage per energy (DPE) than slow charging moves. I did a post a couple of days ago on Sceptile at Rank9 if you look for it.
