you do know it only gets the boost whenever something switches in, right?

>choice locked ghost move KOs your mon
They gotta switch
Opponent kills one of your mons. Swich in yungoos use retaliate while opponent swiches in non ghost mon
(140+70(STAB))×2=420 Base power

Talonflame have shit stats besides Speed and it's OU. 81 Atk and it's OU seriously?
>>26791658
Stakeout clearly isn't as broken or as useful as Gale Wings Brave Bird/Roost. I think it has to have at least decent stats, hopefully speed.
>>26791648
That's some high base power.
>le retaliate meme
Who fucking started this garbage? Retaliate is an awful move and Stake Out is a very situational ability.
Retaliate only gets boosted in power if your shit gets killed, which means you've let something die just so you can fire off one powered up attack. Literally worthless. Return or even fucking Double-Edge is going to give you comparable power without sacrificing something, and they're both actually STRONGER over the course of two turns or if you haven't lost any Pokemon.
That aside, Tough Jaw Hyper Fang hits 120 BP without factoring in STAB. That's 20 points weaker than a boosted Retaliate (either through switching or losing a mon) and it's consistent damage.
TL;DR: Stake Out looks good on paper but if you can't force switches (I don't see this thing being that big of a threat) it's a useless ability. Retaliation is a shitty gimmick, even as a joke.

I want to believe in Yungoos
I feel like this thing is not going to get many kills on the switch, but more often make it too risky to switch out.

Well, let's not have too much faith in GF, so let's just pretend it has Linoone's stats and go with that.

Shame it does such shit damage if the opponent chooses to stay in.
>>26794560
Yes hopefully it has good atk and speed to be a good revenge killer
>>26792125
Are you trolling?
Retaliate gets 140 damage. That's higher than Return or DE.

>Reading comprehension
>>26796527
Only if something dies. If you need a pokemon to die for you to actually be able to kill things, that's fucking terrible.
>>26791315
Hopefully for Trumprat it learns Knock off if it doesnt want to get walled by every single ghost in the game.
>>26792125
>and they're both actually STRONGER over the course of two turns
140+70=210
102+102=204

If you never let something die, then it doesn't matter what you put on Yungoos because you've already won.
>>26796556
If you want to put walls up, you'll have to deal with people putting walls up against you. Shouldn't just be a one way thing that only benefits you.
>>26797158
Well now I look like a fag, but my point still stands.
As a side note, Strong Jaw Crunch is a more reliable way to handle the obvious Ghost switch in, assuming this thing doesn't get Knock Off (which it probably will)

Say this to Lenora.
