I was just reading this and realized they said "this Pokemon's moves can deal twice the normal damage to any Pokemon that switch in or ENTER THE FIELD MID-BATTLE"
This might sound far-fetched, but it sounds like some Pokemon will join a battle during an on-going battle. Not necessarily switching in, but just showing up randomly.
I believe U-Turn counts as switching in, so that's what I deduce "entering the field mid-battle means".
Thoughts?

Dude, it's just a Pursuit-style ability.
But what does "enter the field mid-battle" mean? It can't mean the same thing as switching in as I doubt they were being purposely redundant

Off to ubers it goes

Volt switch or U-turn or even just sending in a new mon after your last one got KO'd

It's the inverse of Pursuit. Pursuit deals double damage and hits outgoing Pokemon, regardless of hard switching/U-Turn/Volt Switch.
Stake Out hits incoming Pokemon for double damage, and applies to all moves. It'll always apply for a hard switch, and you'd want to be slower than the U-Turn/Volt Switch user so you can hit the incoming mon after it comes in so you can apply the doubling effect.
I'm pretty sure it's just referring to things like Eject Button, Red Card, u-turn etc. which aren't technically switches
neat, if he has good coverage then he can deal massive damage with a good read. too bad hes a normal type so hes going to have shit coverage.

It will be very lucky to hold out in RU. 2/10 for making me reply.

How infuriating would it be if you were just about to catch a rare 1% encounter rate kiwi pokemon when suddenly, a Yungoose comes out of nowhere, mauls the fuck out of the pokemon you just spent 30 minutes trying to find, and just leaves?

Holy shit. It's literally the opposite of Pursuit. It's a buffed Analytic.
>>26734880
It's like Gen IV Payback but for every move. Confirmed best rodent.

>implying Stake Out will be exclusive to this early game shitmon
>>26734880
Maybe rotation battles?

All it means is that Yungoos does double damage to other pokemon on that other pokemon's first turn on the field.
As in, the first turn of battle, and the first turn whenever an enemy switches in a new pokemon.
It is not Pursuit-style, it does not deal damage before switch-out.
If anything, it's Fake-Out-style in that it only affects the first turn of an enemy.
