Acrobatics and Recycle?

Dec. 13, 2012

Is Recycle a good follow-up to the Acrobatics + Flying Gem combo?

Being able to hit triple power multiple times sounds amazing, but, is it worth it or too risky to leave an opening to “recharge” when Acrobatics' base power’s only dropped to 110?

It would probably be on a Drifblim or one of the lake trio, for reference.

(tag fail because apparently nothing else in the “matching tags” list is a current tag? wat.)

Depends if you want to waste a turn or not. I wouldnt want to waste that turn plus Drifblim will work better without an item if it has its Unburden Ability.

I wouldn’t say it is really worth it, people just usually use acrobatics drifblim to get the unburden boost, not to destroy the opponent. It could work, that is if you want to use up a turn. It would be easier to just attack the foe three times.

For Archeops, it also gets STAB which brings it up to a massive 247.5 base power if you use flying gem!!
