Alright, I tried editing a couple pictures to show the English names for all the abilities we know so we could see which abilities were which on the actual player info screen. I hope you guys like BIG pictures, because I wanted to make sure everything was easy to read.

A quick question, are you allowed to buy Gyroball as an ability?

I believe it was already mentioned that it is indeed purchasable.

Is Slowball pitcher basically the same thing as groundball pitcher?

And dang it Zumi, that's literally what I've been doing the last 15 minutes...

I think fastball and slowball pitcher are like power pitcher and breaking ball pitcher.

Next to Consistency is Recovery, so I would assume Poise would be above that. I would also assume that Throwing would be below second position. Poise and Throwing would fit in because they're the only 5 scale abilities left, but the translations don't look the same, so I don't know

Yeah, I think that's what it is.

I might get Gyroball on a pitcher as soon as I get the game. Thanks!

Also, down one and then right one from where Gyroball is, is Dr. K

Typing "recovery" into Google Translate gives me the proper Kanji, process of elimination gives us Poise as the last 1-5 scale ability, and I'll just trust Skittles on Dr. K. So with a big thanks to Skittles for his input, here's the updated pitcher abilities screen:

Ok there we go :) I was going to explain how I got that, but it would mean quoting a lot of PPFan31's posts

Also Dish, the smartass answer would be this :P

1. Lines of fire from two or more positions crossing each other at a single point
2. A confrontational situation in which opposing factions, forces, views, or opinions converge

But does anyone know a pitching ability anything like this?

Oh my goodness. I think the smartass answer might be of help here.

In this game, there are turning points. Perhaps this ability means they excel during the turning point of a game.

It would explain why there are blue flames on some pitchers during these turning points.

EDIT:

For those who don't know what turning points are, this quote is for reference:

Powerprosfan31 wrote:
Oh, and about the Attack Point, Turning Point and Defense Point things are certain situations, where, if you are successful, everyone on your team gets the pink, bouncy face, which is a step up from the normal pink face, and greatly increases everyone's stats.
