I'm gonna fucking challenge the President to a gym battle.
Challenger used “malarkey”
It had no effect
Biden Blast
Type: Psychic
Category: Special
PP: 5 (Max 8)
Power: 90
Accuracy: 95
If this move is used after the target used a sound-based move (EG: Hyper Voice), the attack ignores typing and is treated as a 4x super effective move.
With all due respect, that is a severe underrepresentation of the power of the Biden Blast.
Biden Blast (Gen 11 revison)
Type: Psychic
Category: Special
PP: 1 (Max 1)
Power: 200
Accuracy: 95
If this move is used after the target used a sound-based move (EG: Hyper Voice), the attack ignores typing and accuracy checks, and becomes a one-hit-KO. When Biden Blast becomes a one-hit-KO, it ignores the target's ability and held item. (EG: Sturdy)
Little more.
Biden Blast (Gen 14 revison)
Type: Stellar
Category: Special
PP: 1 (Max 1)
Power: 250
Accuracy: 95
Priority: +2
Targets entire enemy team
If any targets know a sound-based move (EG: Hyper Voice), the attack ignores accuracy checks against that target, and becomes a one-hit-KO. When Biden Blast becomes a one-hit-KO against at least one target, it ignores all targets abilites and held items, (EG: Sturdy) and restores 1 PP of the move to the user. Targets knocked out by Biden Blast cannot be revived for the duration of the battle.
Good enough 👍.

People would have actually done this during the peak of Pokemon GO, 2017-2018 ish. Good times
Peak Pokémon go was when it had the footprint tracker imo. It was so fun searching for them
It’s a shame it didn’t last longer; if only the devs didn’t put out such a half-assed sad attempt of a game when everyone was expecting pokemon
What sucks is that they only started to put actually effort into the game, e.g. fixing the bugs, updates, etc., until after the game died.
I would do this now if I lived near the White House
I don’t even play it anymore, but I’d start again for that damn gym
Hey guys, did you know…
That in terms of proximity to the White House
Vaporeon is objectively the best presidential candidate?
I held that gym for awhile in my spoofing days. Most of the landmarks along the east cost I took for fun on my journey across the eastern US. It was actually really cool to spoof. Because you’d find gyms with no mons way out in the country where there wasn’t cell service and you could simply place mons in it and rack up coins.
How… would a gym even pop up then?
Not really sure. This was like 2016. Not sure how it works getting gyms set. But they were empty.
Now I kinda want a Pokemon game where the head of state is the Pokemon Champion
SV, kinda. Geeta is the chairwoman of the pokemon league, which seems to be the main governing body of the pokemon regions.
If that gym was going to be controlled by any team, it absolutely would be valor.
That’s a game level twist if I ever heard one. The president is also the Champion
I remember when I had an internship in DC in 2015, Pokemon Go was hot and everyone was doing it. One day, a legendary spawned right on the White House lawn just out of reach from the walkway in front of it. Some desperate fool actually jumped the fence trying to get it and got absolutely wrecked by Secret Service. There was also an editorial or two in the local papers that summer telling people to not catch Pokemon in the Holocaust Museum because it was becoming a bit of a distraction. Simpler times.
-President used "Biden Blast".
-It's super effective!
