Concept:
Typing: Water / FairyTitle: Very Fast Immovable Object
Description: This is a wall that has a high speed stat
Justification: When designing a wall, we typically prioritize defensive typing, defensive stats, and ability choice the most, with offensive prowess and speed being secondary considerations at best. This concept aims to explore how the general considerations for designing a wall change when said wall actually has the speed stat to change how it interacts with the offensive threats it's expected to take on.
Questions:
- How and why does the Speed stat matter for a wall.
- When and why does outrunning an offensive threat matter?
- Is speed only useful for letting a wall force a KO on a threat before said threat can KO it? What formes of utility / recovery are strongly speed dependent?
- Are there any options that are open to a wall specifically because of a high speed stat that may not be open to slower walls, even accounting for ability choice?
- What makes fast walls decide to not just invest in their offenses?
- Does being a "Fast Wall" imply some level of offensive presence? Is offensive presence necessary to truly reap the rewards of going very fast?
