Sukoi — Nerfed Twice in Seven Days in Batomon Showdown (v1.0.1 + 1.1.0)

What did the official patch notes say about Sukoi?

Sukoi’s official balance trail is two entries in seven days, both pointing down:

The hotfix landed the day after launch +1, and it is a targeted nerf with an unusual shape: rather than touching damage or cooldown, it capped the monster’s own ability to climb levels. Six days later the 1.1.0 balance pass hit the other axis, tripling the cooldown at every level tier — the largest relative cooldown cut in the sixteen-monster Jinto sweep.

What the Shiny line proves

The v1.0.1 entry is two facts in one line. The first is the nerf; the second is the footnote that outlived it: “Shiny Sukoi: Max level from its level up: 4 (unchanged)”. The developer cut the normal form’s cap and deliberately left the Shiny’s alone — which means, on official record, a Shiny variant can have different tuning than the monster it mirrors, and the patch notes say so explicitly when they touch one.

That line is why Sukoi appears in the Shiny conversation at all: the site’s Mythical & Shiny guide drafts the same evidence next to Danuki’s separate Shiny damage share and Torrantler’s separate Shiny cooldown. TheBatopedia side of it is documented too — level selectors run Lv 1 through Lv 4, which is the leveling guide’s territory, and Sukoi’s cap is that page’s example of a level-up effect officially limited below 4.

What the double nerf does not settle

• Sukoi’s cost, attack, health and ability text — the level cap and the Cooldown are the only lines of its card on official record.
• What Sukoi’s ability actually does beyond self-leveling — no public source on this site’s record describes the rest of the kit.
• Any measured performance. No win-rate, pick-rate or replay data exists; the “deepest nerf” label measures the size of the cut, not the size of the fall.

The monster list files Sukoi under the Jinto pool with its hotfix-era debut noted, the leveling guide covers the level system its cap bends, and the Batomon tier list keeps both nerfs in its patch-by-patch record.
