Bruh it's even worse than dire claw. It's really baffling how every new batch of new moves gives us even more RNG involved. I guess Game freak really wants for its game to never be truly competitive.
To elaborate a little bit: if when I have to calc in a match I consider it to be a flat 160BP move than hydrapple is broken. You can't have these stats, Regen and a 160 BO move. If I consider it to be a 80BP love there is always the possibility (same as scald) for it to destroy my switch in. It's terrible, unfun and uncompetitive imo
Yeah funny hydra goes fickle beam but the move is a fucking nightmare
