Smogon is using Pokemon Showdown for BW2, where Kyurem-B and Kyurem-W are banned.Tornadus-T. I've never been so amazed and disappointed at the same time, because before the base stats came out I expected it to be an OU lugia, a flying wall, and it turned out instead to be an amazing bulky offense mon instead.
Oh and KD24. I'm in the PO alpha testing, where else can I be? its the only one that shows up when i look for servers. Am I doing something wrong?
I'd like to hear more thoughts on this...the core is definitely great, but what's the best home for it?Heatran, Slowbro, and Amoonguss are THE FWG core. Slowbro and Amoonguss can just switch out when their health gets a bit low, and Heatran takes on the sun teams that plague the duo. An interesting defensive partner for this, I've found, is Bronzong - it is immune to the Ground attacks that plague the core (since none of them resist it) and is a reliable check to both formes of Tornadus. Partnered with another Ground immunity (maybe a Therian, if you wish) and a final attacker, it makes for a really nice balanced team, or one can try full stall with Blissey and... Vaporeon? I'm not sure what would go there.
thats why mamo is good as shit, it kills all of those. you should use it like, right now.Latios
Jirachi
Tornadus
There, i think those three are promising in BW2 meta
oh it's not like i have 5 other pokemon on my team or anything. do people even use iron head hax? lol..Mamo can lose to Iron Hax tho
Holy **** why I not hear earlier? That is just going to be ridiculous. I'm already updating my old Stoutland teams as being great with Amoonguss for extra backbone, and since Stoutland beats just about all the new threats easily. Oh, AND Tornadus breaks Steels / Tyranitar etc for it.Don't forget superpower stoutland
Scarfrahci would resent this statement as it is one of the most proficient Iron Head haxers in the game today.oh it's not like i have 5 other pokemon on my team or anything. do people even use iron head hax? lol..
Yeah, I was going to point this out too. With Superpower, stoutland loses its one big disadvantage - its inability to hit steel types. Also, nobody is making mention of the fact that Hydreigon got roost as well? With its good bulk, it could conceivably run a bulky set now, or simply roost off life orb recoil.Don't forget superpower stoutland
Now Stoutland can have near perfect coverage with a band set. Assuming a set of Frustration/Superpower/Wild Charge/Ice Fang, Stoutland can literally take out every OU threat.Holy **** why I not hear earlier? That is just going to be ridiculous.

EDIT: Needs a Politoed remover though. Hmm. Need some help on that.
Ttar already had fire punch, fire blast was for skarm while still wrecking ferrothornSub Keldeo has been amazing so far. It's pretty simple, switch in on something you threaten (or locked into something ineffective) and then sub up. This lets you get off two hits on Jellicent / Amoongus and allows you to hurt Thundurus-T/Tornadus-T. His Hydro Pumps hit hard as all fuck, and I'm using it in a sand team. Imagine that in a rain team. Holy shit. Of course, it sufferers from coverage (Hydro Pump / Secret Sword / HP Ghost only gets you so far) but hitting something twice makes it worth it.
Also, TTar got the elemental punches. Does this mean it can stop running Fire Blast and use Fire Punch, or is it still inferior (not having to split your EVs is good). It also helps the DDance set and the CB set a bit.
Run double sand and a grass type (celebi or shaymin). Run Tyranitar with Pursuit...if you can force the froggy out you can catch it with pursuit as it tries to flee.Holy **** why I not hear earlier?
