Sometimes I think about how all the johto starters are just unequivocally worse versions of a different starter and it keeps me up at night. How do feraligatr and swampert have the same bst but swampert still wins in almost every category it's not right (rhetorical question). Typhlosion is just...

please enlighten me on this bulky kyu b set, I'm out of the loop

This feels kind of random to bring up. Is sleep stupid and broken? For sure! We have known this! It's hardly a grand revelation we had as a collective one day. The status that incapacitates you is busted? Say it ain't so. I'll make my position clear right now so you can scroll past my post...

Is rest gyarados+steelix still a viable defensive core, or has steelix been phased out in favor of an actually good pokemon? I've been trying to use it but it feels like it just switches into stuff and then doesn't actually do anything beyond that lol

chillax, I'm not good or patient enough to get reqs. I also acknowledged that it could still be broken even after a hypothetical gholdengo ban. I don't think me specifically picking between a 3 or a 4 is going to change the outcome of a gliscor suspect. For your sake, I will officially bump it...

Might as well post my own thoughts. I've got nothing better to do :kingambit: 4/5: If there's any pokemon to fight one billion lions, I'd place my bets into this one. Imagine 1015 fallen allies. Jokes aside, this guy's a real ass. I don't think it's a brave statement to say almost nobody likes...

If you heal past 50% you can proc berserk twice which is kinda funny. Aside from that I run a bunch of anti hazard options (mainly hat and glimmora)

Despite what someone said like two seconds ago, I've been having a good time using a gimmicky amoongus set. It's completely normal except you have worry seed for the sole purpose of trolling gliscor. Speaking of which, I threw ice fang on gliscor and have had a decent amount of success with it...

Ursaluna and gliscor kicking everyone down to UU is fucked up and blissey being OU is wrong. Also how does anyone retain their sanity trying to get reqs. I'm using a team that the person who made it said "yeah this kinda auto loses to unaware clef but thankfully nobody uses that" and I've now...

Haven't seen much talk about Greninja, but I think it has a lot of potential right now. I've been using it a lot lately and have had some decent success. Specifically with everyone's favorite "trying to be different" set, mixed protean (yippee!). mc complex (Greninja) @ Choice Scarf Ability...

As for my votes... Hearthflame is a 5. That pokemon is crazy, don't need to elaborate. Bro just wins games on its own and can even go full zacian beast mode if it wants to. Nothing really takes hits from this well besides shit like tera fire corviknight and general rule of thumb if you have to...

What did Zamazenta do off goat he's keeping our nation together. Also I just wanna chip in on Darkrai again. Please don't. Gen 9 already has its hands full with threats out the ass, we don't need to add another threat just for kicks. What value does Darkrai provide other than being another big...

Has anyone tried sinestcha yet? I didn't read the first few pages but I think it might be a good meme. In particular I found a very stupid way to """"""""""""""""beat"""""""""""""""" ogerpon with it. The ability shield, of course! troll logic (Sinistcha-Masterpiece) @ Ability Shield Ability...

First off, thank you so much for your reply, it was very helpful :). I'm just curious, isn't it a bit dicey for cinderace to do the removal thing because you might put your own hazards on your side? Obviously that doesn't count it out completely, but I'm a bit curious on how to play with that...

What manaphy set are you guys running? I've hardly seen it and idk how to ev it. Granted, my elo isn't great but the few I've seen mostly weren't able to get going with enough hp/speed. Is max speed worth it?

Not sure if this is the right place to ask but I keep making my teams weak to one specific pokemon that suddenly becomes #1 usage on the ladder. It feels like all the defensive pokemon in the metagame are dogshit and (next part is true) tusk being the ONLY hazard remover that doesn't invite in...

The fact that they didn't add any really reliable hazard removes (you will find me dead in a ditch before I call geezing a reliable hazard remover, like it seems ok but not easy to slot) makes me sob just a little bit. Born to defog with real pokemon forced to use corviknight/mandibuzz. Some...

I often see people randomly bring up how we should suspect whatever uber for ou like giratina-a or now skymin, but I must ask what we as a society would gain from this. You know what ou needs right now. Fucking skymin to flinch and subseed us to death. Even if (gigantic if) it somehow ends up...

Slither wing is already in the game. Regardless, I think it's a bit early to start doom posting about the dlc that isn't gonna release until fall.

You know who I've been having a lot of good times with? Why Zacian of course! No, not zacian crowned, zacian normal person! :zacian: girl power! (Zacian) @ Choice Scarf Ability: Intrepid Sword Tera Type: Fairy EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Play Rough - Close Combat...
