When it isn’t battling, it keeps Dreepy in the holes on its horns. Once a fight starts, it launches the Dreepy like supersonic missiles.

This is the exact same ability as Whimsicott-GX’s.

this is broken with Glimwood Tangle · Darkness Ablaze (DAA) #162?

I believe Glimwood Tangle only affects attacks, whereas this coin flip is from an ability.

Yup. The ability is good, but that would be broken lol.

We can have pultnoir in GLC and you’re blackpilling, anon?

There used to be a list with this Dragapult on the official Gym Leader Challenge website, but it hasn’t been there for years if I remember correctly. Phantom Force needs damage modifiers simply to reach the magic number of 130 damage, and the three damage counters it places aren’t as impactful as the six damage counters placed by Dragapult ex. Plus, you couldn’t use multiple Dusclops/Dusknoir Abilities easily, so the deck wouldn’t truly feel that much like PultNoir.

Yeah, it’s severely watered down in terms of power, but it’s also just a fun idea that I wouldn’t take seriously.
