Poke-BODY lock?

[yoyofsho16]

Next year, in DP-on format, will there be any way AT ALL to lock someone out of Poke-Bodies?

I was thinking about this, and I am fairly certain there isn't a way.

Glaceon lv.X has a body that says when it's active, your opponent cannot use any Poke-Powers.

Hello Warp Point!

Mesprit. A searchable power stopper.

 

[Killax]

Ofcourse you still could use Gardevoir to stop powers, and it's level X attack isn't even bad because of all the damage spread we could get

 

[yoyofsho16]

Sorry, I already knew about all the ways to stop Powers. I meant Bodies, not Powers, I mistyped that.

 

[Blaziken 1111]

I think shuckle does but I think that'sit.

Oh gosh, Bodies could make it or break it next season.

Dont worry. Im sure they will come out with some obnoxious card to ruin everyone's fun.

Shuckle stops bodies if their active.

But theres really no over-powering bodies out there or in the immediate future, so theres really no worry. It actually seems like alot of bodies are being turned into powers (ho-oh, dusknoir lvl X, shedinja), so maybe their trying to prevent that from happening.

No, they constitute as Powers, because you choose when to use them. Ho-oh's Phoenix turn says, "...you MAY flip a coin...", Dusknoir Lv. X and Shedinja also say "may."

 

[Papi/Manny]

^Up until recently, powers have never activated on the opponets turn, only bodies. The may has nothing to do with it. :/

There are some very strong poké-bodies available, that cannot be countered by just shutting them off with a card like cessation crystal.

Ampharos, Gyarados, Mr. Mime, Kabutops, Aerodactyl, Armaldo, Dome Fossil, Darkrai LvX, Helix Fossil, Glaceon LvX, Magnezone, Sceptile, Shuckle, Espeon, Umbreon are amongst some of the greatest threats/annoyances.
