    You cannot possibly rebut an argument like this, you just stack the deck way too far in favor or the Lando user. I'm bowing out of the debate if double switches in competitive pokemon are not valid arguments. No offense to you personally either, I found you posted some of the best arguments in...

    That was more or less irrelevant to the question I was responding to. The question was which pokemon can handle common cores that feature Lando-I. So whatever my answer is you can just add any other pokemon to your hypothetical team to throw a monkey wrench into dismantling said cores. "LO...

    To be fair just for the sake of argument Zard Y can use Dragon Dance to boost its speed if it so desires. And just so this isn't a one-liner, a few pages back someone asked for a list of one or multiple pokemon that can not only safely handle Lando-I but also the common cores associated with...

    Not exactly true. Any variant of Excadrill gets bopped by DD Cloud Nine Altaria with EQ if it holds off on mega evolving until the switchin happens. A slight nitpick but a valid point nonetheless.

    I've addressed this in a post a long way back, but disregarding the fact that you don't even NEED to run more than one pokemon to beat it if you don't want to (M-Scizor hard counters), keep in mind that it's the best pokemon in the tier so it's simply not going to always be a cakewalk to KO it...

    Agreed, the purpose of posting those teams was to make a point, not to have them dissected. Suffice it to say that both teams have several viable ways of handling standard 4 attacks Gross, and both teams have some difficulty, not "floored by", an uncommon set on the best pokemon in the tier. Not...

    You're forgetting that it's not running one of its two common coverage moves, as it needs to run Agility. Even if Rotom-W is 2HKO'd, it's switching in on an Agility, not an attack, so it can get off the burn.

    How does Suicune get floored by Agility Gross, or Sash Weavile? Even Talonflame cannot be OHKO'd by Agility Zen Headbutt. What about Sash Diggersby, Rotom-W, Skarmory with WW? Yeah, not a chance in hell either team gets floored by Agility Megagross.

    I'd like to reply to this because it's true that you pretty much just build teams without Megagross in mind and you already have so many things that threaten it. I'll list just a few of my OU teams to exemplify this: Team 1: DD Mega Altaria with EQ, Suicune, Scarf Timid Zone, Air Balloon...

    Yeah it seems like you don't have a very good grasp of what lower tiered pokemon became viable in ORAS, like Starmie, Hydreigon, etc. Either that or you're one of those people that think anything below OU is garbage. This isn't a case of Arcanine countering M-Mawile; pretty much every pokemon on...

    I'd like to preface by saying that when pokemon have absurd base stats all across the board it really infuriates me (see Aegislash, except Megagross has the added benefit of the much-coveted 110 base Speed). Now even though this was one of the reasons why I agreed with Aegislash's ban, I think...

    I'm on Mobil and at work so I'll make this brief. Altaria: Jolly Cloud Nine, DD/Frustration or Double Edge/EQ/Roost, 252 Att 252 Spd 4 Def. Talonflame is the standard Band revenge killer, that info is readily available, I will mention it has Tailwind in the fourth moveslot. Magnezone: max...
