I COULD BE BORED!
Nothing really fancy, just a fixing of slashes and where they are to be.

Alright, so let's look at the DanceOrb set:
Also, in the Counters section, I'd like to make something clear: Gliscor still struggles against X-Scissor variants as well. Remember that Roost loses his Flying-type and Scizor will do around 45% after a Swords Dance, or 80s to 90s after a Roost, which leaves him vulnerable to a Quick Attack. And Charizard as a counter to the DanceOrb set is a bit ridiculous as well as stretching Moltres here. Stealth Rock easily chips off their HP and leaves them to Quick Attack sweep. FINALLY, I'd like to add Lucario perhaps. Remember that he 4x resists Bug and 2x resists Steel, Normal, and Dark moves and only fears Brick Break.
If you have any questions or anything else to add, just post it here I guess. Lately I've been on a Scizor craze so I decided to look at this...

Alright, so let's look at the DanceOrb set:
As you can see, I've simply just threw Brick Break over the slot for Roost. Now of course you're going to ask me why, right? It actually is quite a simple reason: STAB. Remember that Scizor still needs STAB moves to thrash around opponents, and Iron Head (for Ghosts) or X-Scissor (for Cresselia and Swampert) are the answers to that. Just tossing Brick Break in here over your STAB options make you generally weaker. Since Roost would be the move that would be easy to remove, I'd just slap Brick Break here. And don't worry, I have tested Brick Break over Roost for a while with much success.Analysis said:Name: DanceOrb
