Switch Out In Ladder Tournament

This is a suggestion to improve AI in Ladder Tournaments. The AI should switch out if a monster in the party has an element advantage against the opponent, or if the monster in combat has an element disadvantage against the opponent. The opponent AI may do this as well for fairness. I was taking critical damage earlier because I didn't have the ability to switch out, and the
AI wasn't using the Neutral move.

Nevermind. :|
Bad Idea.
Prevent switching out instead.

The AI needs improvement but not like this. Think about it, lets say the enemy team is Draco, pewgway, branchy, brawny and your team is cygness, smiter, ignitemare, scythe.

1)Draco vs cygness Draco switches to branchy
2) branchy vs cygness cygness switches to ignitemare
3) branchy vs ignitemare branchy switches to brawny
4) brawny vs ignitemare ignitemare switches to smiter
5) etc....

If you put the switches in you'll just keep switching and it'll never end. Battles will end from pp being used before any monster even dies. Not the best idea ever.

Re: Switch Out In Ladder Tournament

When I read the title I thought this suggestion would be to stop this lol the bug that's allowing this to happen is extremely annoying and as Rex pointed out, awful for the game. It takes away all strategy from the ladder and it just becomes pvp on auto.

Although... there have been times I've seen the AI swap out my monsters in Ladder for element advantage... :shock:

Does no one read my posts? Lol I said that there's a bug that makes that happen and I thought this suggestion was to stop that.
