☆n10sit: from a math standpoint
☆n10sit: there's about
☆n10sit: 8? things your opponent can do each turn
☆n10sit: in a dubs game
☆Nido-Rus: 10
☆Nido-Rus: but yeah
☆n10sit: ally switch doubles the things u can do
☆n10sit: each turn
☆n10sit: err
☆n10sit: doubles the things your opp has to think about?
☆Nido-Rus: sort of
☆Nido-Rus: but yeah the thing is
☆Nido-Rus: chansey is the sort of mon
☆Nido-Rus: that you can normally pretty much ignore
☆Nido-Rus: and save up your 1/2 checks for the end
☆n10sit: but ally switch forces you to not ignore it
☆Nido-Rus: where chansey just dies or is forced to switch out
☆Nido-Rus: big momentum suck
☆n10sit: yah
☆Nido-Rus: exactly ye
☆n10sit: or
☆n10sit: punishes you for ignoring it
☆Nido-Rus: if opp has
☆Nido-Rus: two spatkers on the field
☆Nido-Rus: and you have chansey+something
☆Nido-Rus: chansey would normally just heal pulse or stoss
☆Nido-Rus: but now it's a much, much bigger threat
☆n10sit: yeah
☆Nido-Rus: and same with even checking chansey
☆Nido-Rus: like marsh is the epitome of
☆Nido-Rus: chansey counter
☆Nido-Rus: and often
☆n10sit: but ally switch makes checking chansey a 50/50
☆Nido-Rus: marsh has to be sacked to get rid of chansey
☆n10sit: yeah
☆Nido-Rus: like chansey/fini, marsh tries to get rid of chansey in exchange for moonblast dropping marsh
☆Nido-Rus: but again yeah
☆Nido-Rus: ally switch makes it a 50/50
