One of the few stalls I've seen to have major success recently is
Tesung's (
for reference). I've been looking through stall teams more than anything else because there's just so much less time if I was to try and develop a trend for stall team spots than what I had before... I mean, I basically had from January to July to make the conclusions about the trend in an aegislash meta... Between
Monte Cristo's (and I guess by extension, Adrian's) victinistall, Tesung's, and a few of my own dabbles, I'm trying to pick up specific trends.
But the one trend both Monte and Tesung followed was a speedy psychic type. I know what monte's is for (I've talked to him multiple times), he runs victini to take out mega heracross (Checks it, I believe) and counter Medicham-mega. I'm not sure Tesung's jirachi can counter either, (he was choosing between a spdef and scarf set last time I saw him), but his would be able to, with a scarf, check medi/hera/gard. With Spedef and some speed, it probably still checks hera, counters gard and lets something else solve Medi. In fact, Tesung runs a second psychic, starmie, which I believe is probably the bulky set jukain has been advertising. I would imagine it checks Medi at the very least. I know Jukain's set outsped a raikou so it could easily manage. So I'm wondering if the answer to these new wallbreakers isn't
Fast Psychics or Doublade.
It seems that somehow, stall is meant to take those three wallbreakers with two mons max. It seems like Victini from the psychics will check all of them. Spdef Jirachi can counter in one (gard) and check another (hera). Scarf checks all three. Starmie can check two (Hera/Medi) but probably can't stop a Gard. Even a modest Alakazam could check off Medi/Hera, and it does have access to taunt. Even Sableye (+another mon) is pretty decent for checking down Hera and basically countering Medi.
Keldeo countering has become a very noticeable role recently. Even though it's not considered a great stall breaker even with specs, you can't just have a chansey do it. Amoongus/Venu, Starmie, Slowbro and Celebi all are pretty prevalent, especially since all of them can perform other roles. I'm thinking that if you use a second mon to cover off the three wallbreakers, that mon also is responsible for keldeo (since psychics can basically overlap on medi and keldeo).
And as a last note, two of the three teams I'm looking over use a target other than skarm to take on Pinsir-mega. Tesung and I both have forgone Skarm for a rock type (Aero-Mega and Rhyperior respectively). Just food for thought.
