Suggestion- Ban Prankster+Confuse Ray

[Villidan]

Here is the thing, i wanna test it but never really have time to do so.

Lets think about this: Why, on showdown, ps or other places, not so many people are using confuse ray but here. Even gengar is using confuse ray, for what? And Lanturn since last season, cause they found something wrong with it. They can win with it easily yeah, by luck or whatever they said. Have you lost to lanturn as amoonguss or vennusaur? thats my point. Confuse ray should be banned. Even blissey is running swagger, even politoed is running swagger just becasue they cant use confuse ray.

confuse ray is bad and unhealtier for pvp, some players don`t play usually because most of the ladder ones are with this bugged move, also the players mostly who voted no are the ones who use it in abuse ^_^, simple as that ( ofc they won`t admit ). If all the pokemons could learn confuse ray in game i tell you 2000% you will see players with confuse ray on each of his pokemon ( ofc the one who abuse it ) wich is more then 80% of the pvp community ). And give me a break with addapt or don`t play, or be better, cus is neither of this reasons and as you can see alot of people complaining ^_^. 90% of the ladder players will go down instantly when confure ray will be banned or working properly, you won`t see a sableye selling for 10mil or so as max price, you will see problaly for 4-5mil max the most epic one. I don`t know how many times people need to ,,cry`` but is more like a real complain about this bug, ban the move already untill it can be fixed properly.

lol A couple days ago I came across Sweet Kiss Togekiss and was confused by Rock Climb Garchomp.

I voted no due to the thread starter wanting to ban prankster + ray only wich didn't make sense, but i guess you can tell what i think of confuse ray from my signature. The move should be looked into, and in the while banned from pvp.

This is the same reason I voted no. If the vote was just about confuse ray, I would have voted yes.

I honestly feel it needs to be banned asap as it is not healthy for pvp atm. I myself started running tests and and it looks like for every successful hit while confused the pokemon will hit himself 2-3 times. Definitely not a 50 50 chance as it's supposed to be.

I've passed this thread on so that Confuse Ray's mechanics can be looked into when possible. Thank you for your patience in the meantime.

 

so what is going on now?

Has been looked into by Shane personally, the move is working as intended.

Confusion Ray: Bulbapedia source.

Confusion Status: Bulbapedia source.

 

Prankster or Confuse Ray won't be banned, as there is no such existing clause in any pokemon competitive environment and the ability / the move are working correctly.
