Hi jump kick

[Mr_D]

Now that medicham has been fixed and its attack now reduced so it cant be haxxy anymore, hi jump kick should have some work put onto it again. With a large cooldown and hit freeze its not a very useful move. Ive also noticed that it has a lager cooldown than giga impact and giga impact also has no hit freeze as well which is why i also need to ask why does hi jump kick remain to have hit freeze and a very large cooldown while giga impact does not? Also with few pokemon able to learn hi jump kick, its a rare move to see now. Im sure lots of users would want to have the move sorted out so it because usuable again

Lemme just, like troll you here.

@Mr_D

Now that Medicham is fixed.

Medicham wasn’t Hi-Jump Kick’s only problem, and abuser.

@Mr_D

Its attack is lower and its less haxy.

Naaah, its still pretty haxy.

@Mr_D

With a large cooldown and hit freeze its not very useful.

So you’re saying it should be re-haxy?

@Mr_D

I also need to ask why does Hi-Jump Kick remain to have hit freeze and a very large cooldown while Giga Impact does not?

That’s a bad comparison, they’re two completely different moves This seems more of a nit-pick at some Giga Impact users, just like your X-Scissor post.

@Mr_D

Also with few Pokémon able to learn Hi-Jump kick, its a rare move to see now.

I’ll give you that, not many, if any people use it now.

@Mr_D

Wait, wait, wait, wait! In my quote above doesn’t it say its a rare move? If its rare there aren’t many users, if so many people want it changed, how is it a rare move? O: -Inception-

PS: All of the quotes were reworded.

Well, i can understand that you’d like to see Medicham become more powerful again, but i mean look at Azumarill, it has just about the same ability, and i still use it and make it work out great.

And by the looks of it, Medicham is still a good pokemon.

But with HJK in General, i think maybe the cooldown could be lowered, but the recoil increased to half the users HP.

but thats just me

Or possibly damage per tile something like:

For x = number of tiles
Pokemon Level+(3x) = Damage output

Why?
Because if you build up momentum and run into something, it’ll hurt depending on your speed and acceleration. Accelaration in this case would be tiles.

I don’t think talking about Medicham helps with your high jump kick topic. :P I think highjump kick has a hitstun because its a huge ranged LoS. Its range is almost like f-thrower and with its high base power I think it deserves a stun.

You cant compare the range of flamethrower and hi jump kick. Flamethrower has the ability to make attacks go through walls whereas hi jump kick can only go as far as long as it doesnt hit a wall. In a dungeon if you are to be in a small room with a lot of pokemon you cant hide behind a wall to hit them, you would need to move in with them to attack

Another case of being a hypocrit, you compared it to Giga Impact, I think Flamethrower is a slightly more just comparasion, but only slightly. Lman’s idea is interesting, they should consider it.
