Jelibean Man Vs Ash0011 REF Greyfox

[Ash0011]

well, yes but I belive you are the only ref that does that, most allow you to forego your other actions in order to combo damaging moves with quick moves to preempt an opponent, your way removes this in exchange for energy gain on turns used in the combo(does that mean I can do a combo and normal actions?) however your way also allows for a +4 priority attack so...
edit; protect is +4 priority itself, soo provided poke is faster said combo could preempt protect

1 - Every ref is different, Ash, you know this. I ref combo moves differently than everyone else because this is what I believe makes the most sense. It costs more energy to use moves in a combo, but you gain the excess energy lost back in the requisite actions anyway.
2 - The only moves that have higher priority than Protect and its clones are Pursuit (only when used against switching pokémon) and Helping Hand (which fails in single battles and is used on your allies).
