  1. You know what they say about monkeys and typewriters...

    Yet another n00b that doesn't realize why standard sets are standard. If someone made something original that worked very, very well, then it would become standard, such is the case with Bulkydos. Sucker Punch is NOT the most powerful priority move in the game. Correct me if I am wrong, not you...
  2. Garchomp and this Metagame

    Garchomp can be rather a pain to deal with, but I think most people have stated that it can be stopped. I absolutely with a passion hate having to face Suicune as it is such a pain for most of my teams to fight. I would love to see it go, but like Garchomp, I don't expect to see it go any time...
  3. Defining the NU Tier

    There aren't any ghosts, bar NFE's, who have not been decided what to do with yet, in UU. Also, is Butterfree being ignored for the (hopefully finished) Clamperl BL/UU/NU argument or is it just for sure an NU. I'll still be happy to use it, but I feel like it should be in UU.
  4. Post new creative movesets/EV spreads here:

    Um, I'm not sure if this has been done yet but... Mantine@Wacan Berry Calm 252 SpD 252 HP 6 SpA Mirror Coat Surf Ice Beam HP Electric
  5. Defining the NU Tier

    I was under the impression someone had already thought of my Wacan Berry Mirror Coat idea, maybe I should go post it somewhere, although, I probably read it somewhere already. Anyways, I still feel that Clamperl would fall easily to something. Shiftree and Ludicolo do wonders in Ubers, but they...
  6. Defining the NU Tier

    Um, I have never had the opportunity to battle a weather based team against a TR team, or the vise-versa, but would the weather destroy TR, I don't belive it would not, but I am not aware what would happen if Rain Dance, Hail, Sandstorm, or Sunny Day was used it would cancel out the TR, in which...
  7. Defining the NU Tier

    Yes but a lot of Mantine carry Wacan berry for the safety from a OHKO by an electric move so they can Mirror Coat it back. We can't really always bring TR into play, remember that it is never guaranteed to be on the field with Clamperl. Also, has nothing positive been taken into account the...
  8. Defining the NU Tier

    Excuse me for not realizing you meant pure UU matches, Marriland, where I hail from, does not have that large of a population of players that do pure UU battles. I am certain in my long time battling there I had encountered more than that one TR team based around Clamperl, but that is the only...
  9. Defining the NU Tier

    Jolteon WAS Borderline at one point in time, you asked me to answer truthfully, and thus I did, and as such I had used Jolteon when it was BL in my teams. Mantine and Toxicroak seem to both do a rather good job of stopping the Clamperl you mentioned with Ice Beam, Surf, and HP Grass. I would...
  10. Defining the NU Tier

    Actually I have. It was rather easy to stall out. I used a combination of Protect + Sub I carry on my Jolteon. QFT I hope you were actually talking about someone being able to make a prediction and not being able to predict correctly 100% of the time. Anyways, it is true that to have the...
  11. Defining the NU Tier

    Yes I could say Skarmory is pretty worthless Taunted, and am by no means denying it, nor agreeing with that statement should it come back later when we are arguing that point. Stalling out TR may be hard for you to do, but in all my time battling, I have never had a problem dealing with it.
  12. Defining the NU Tier

    What happens when you get Taunted? Even if your opponent doesn't manage to stop the first Trick Room, you can still pretty much stall out Trick Room, leaving time to taunt the next person.
  13. Defining the NU Tier

    I'm nto sure If I did give it speed EV's, I just assumed I did. Anyways, I still think that Clamperl could easily be OHKO'd due to it's extremely low speed. It can't always rely on Trick Room.
  14. Defining the NU Tier

    Clamperl is also very slow if I remember correctly, let me check mine, I have one with the EV's from Smogon's Deep Sea Tooth set. Okay, so a Modest Max Speed and Special attack Clamperl is only 163, I don't think it is going to have the chance to trick room, let alone to lay the hurt on Toxicroak.
  15. Defining the NU Tier

    I would like to disagree with Butterfree being NU. It functions very well sashed with Smogon's Doublepowder set going Timid, and it functions well in BL & UU, and wreaks complete havoc to teams in NU, if not just to protect the NU tier, I think it should be placed at least in UU, and skeptically...
