Waiting for the Corax nerf

How are you all using your increased free time from not playing as much crossout per day due to the Corax spam? I re-started my hobby of painting and have started a brand new run of Pokemon Violet

Corax is sooo annoying to fire, it should be strong considering it’ll break controller buttons :joy:
I agree it needs a nerf, but hopefully nothing too much because it’ll never be used again.
And it stops people from wanting to buy passes.

im a bit confused on how the corax works.
some people say the exploding re-bar it has still explodes even if you shoot it off. but i for the life of me cant figure out how to shoot an explosive from it lol.
do you need charges accumulated to shoot an explosive? am i just that clueless here?
i havent played around with it because i just dont like how it functions. the whole charge shot thing i never agreed with. i prefer the spike and commit over it, heck even the phoenix i prefer over it.
can anyone tell me how it works? ill probably experiment around with it later to see if i can get the explosive bolts to happen.
