  1. Metagame [Gen 8] Category Swap

    Some of the unbanned ubers seem very strong. :magearna: has just been banned, which I agree with. In addition to the mentioned builds, gyro ball and coverage brick break are decent too and last moves in trick room, heal bell, explosion. :Cinderace: is in my opinion very wild. I run fire blast...
  2. Metagame Re-Evolution

    Ye just found out the hard way lmao
  3. Metagame Re-Evolution

    Made a team with a bunch of top raises just to get a feel for the meta: :Meltan: to :Melmetal: -> 300 to 600 (300) :Wimpod: to :Golisopod: -> 230 to 530 (300) :Snom: to :Frosmoth: -> 185 to 475 (290) :Tyrogue: to :Hitmontop: -> 210 to 455 (245) :Kirlia: to :Gardevoir: -> 278 to 518 (240) I...
  4. Metagame Tier Shift

    Ye without proper support Snorlax might be underwhelimg. I played him with slow pivots / wish / cleric / other defensive checks. I also just realised that spd Jolteon :Jolteon: is is a good alternative to Lanturn :Lanturn: with Wish Protox Volt Switch. Especially better versus Volt-Switchers...
  5. Metagame Tier Shift

    I feel like Gigalith :Gigalith: is very underrated. It has such good stats on its own + pu boost, an amazing ability in sand stream and is threatening to Xatu. I just hard countered a stall team with this mon single-handedly, because it also simply killed eldegross attempting to giga drain while...

    Hello! I have seen that it is popular to run spd Slowbro and def Slowking for balanced sets. There has been some discussion which sets have more combined stats. Just want to point out that Slowbro 16 +def and 240 spdef has a single combined point more than 4 def and 252 +spd. Same for Slowking...

  9. Metagame BDSP NU (Mesprit Ban @ Post #111)

    Am I tripping or isn't that exactly what I said. Edit: Ah, well I see your point. The comment I replied to was still contradicting saying, that Volbeat 'fell off harder than Fetty Wap post 2016, not surprised to see it rise into a tier'. Edit2: Tho interesting that Ninetales is not higher in the...
  10. Metagame BDSP NU (Mesprit Ban @ Post #111)

    I feel like if the usage drops, it should not rise in the tier. Ninetales was not moved to UU either, just because Draught was banned by BDSP RU. Also Illumise was not banned, which is the same set with less u-turn damage, which does not seem necessarily essential. I guess Volbeat simply rose in...
  11. Metagame BDSP NU (Mesprit Ban @ Post #111)

    I updated my scarfed Aerodactyl team. Features defensive Body Press :Regigigas:. Not sure if that is a thing already, but I find it pretty fun basically bypassing Slow Start. Alternatively run Thunder Wave instead of Sleep Talk. I tried to cover weaknesses with each other. E.g.:Chimecho: resists...
  12. Metagame BDSP NU (Mesprit Ban @ Post #111)

    I like to run Facade last in case of a burn. Adamant scarfed is also really nice as it outspeeds stuff like scarfed Typhlosion. With scarf I prefer Rock Slide over Stone Edge for the accuracy and flinch, but banded is indeed better with edge imo. Regice spd takes 40.6 - 48.3% from timid specs...
  13. Metagame BDSP RU (Cresselia + Gyarados Ban @ Post #112)

    https://pokepast.es/9c0e997632f4dfd6 Some balanced team. Spd Gastrodon, def Zapdos and Thick Fat Miltank are the core. Medicham, Absol and Moltres are the hard hitters. Medicham outspeeds timid Explaud. Absol outspeeds modest Exploud. Moltres is modest scarfed. Not really sure how well it...

  20. Metagame Multibility

    A funny alternative to prankster haze pex is g-weezing if you do not want to sacrifice the regenerator slot, but gain a levitate as a trade which is quite decent with the poison typing. However pain split is less reliable than recover tho it can deal decent damage if hp is not invested e.g. in a...
