Fairy Aura does not negate weather. It provides a Fairy boost to all allied pokemon.Guys, you don't realize something important. In no way does Xerneas have access to Thunder. This is because his Fairy Aura most likely acts as a weather condition and negates Weather, meaning 70% accuracy Thunders.
That's not a buff considering it's still under 100%.According to Serebii, Will-O-Wisp's accuracy is now 85 rather than 75. You can score that as another advantage for support Arceus formes when wondering how to differentiate them from other Ubers that may share the same typing.
The accuracy is higher than it was, so its a buff.That's not a buff considering it's still under 100%.
You make it sound as if it is easy to set up several nasty plots. In ubers, nothing ever gets free set-up turns, as even most leads have extreme offensive potential or phazing ability (i.e. Tyranitar, Dialga, etc). On the topic of phazing, even if this so-called stealth rock nerf is real, this set is utterly destroyed by phazing. Weakness to stealth rock and a moveset focused on extremely large periods of set up don't mix very well.Yveltal can actually go offensive and bulky at the same time while still killing everything.
Leftovers
252 hp 52 sp.atk 200 spd
Foul Play
Oblivion wing
Nasty plot
Roost
1. substitute on leads
2. Start setting up
3. Heal any damage with roost or wreck and heal with oblivion wing
4. Dark Aura Foul play for people who resist flying (dialga)
Or to punish physical power houses (mewtwo X, tina-O, arceus ghost)
5. Repeat
6. Profit!!!???
Walled by blissey temporarily, but this is b4 it gets its nasty plots up.
Yveltal could be a monster.
lol relying on terribly weak moves. No just no.Yveltal can actually go offensive and bulky at the same time while still killing everything.

oblivion wing is weak, yveltal is pretty frail with a pretty shit typing and sr weak. Foul play is better than dark pulse though so no coplaints there. But having 135ish base offenses and relying on 80> bp moves? Lol. That is awful.Will-o-wisp is buffed, end of story. You will miss 10% less than previously, no matter how you look at it.
As for Yveltal, Flying STAB is actually quite useful. With Flying / Fire / Dark, it could hit a large amount of the metagame while retaining bulk. I personally like Foul Play because it would punish Ho-Oh. It doesn't hurt to hit Zekrom, who resists Oblivion Wing, as well.
Couple things:oblivion wing is weak, yveltal is pretty frail with a pretty shit typing and sr weak. Foul play is better than dark pulse though so no coplaints there. But having 135ish base offenses and relying on 80> bp moves? Lol. That is awful.
1. I never said poor offensive typing. I said he has shitty moves (lol at two 80 base power stabs though dark pulse/foul play get double stab but mehs). 130/90/90 is absolutely pitiful bulk by uber standards if you factor in sr damage, and how it's weak to ice/elec/rock/fairy. 4 major weaknesses.Couple things:
1) Considering Yveltal has 130/90/90 bulk minimum and a typing that lets him check Arceus-Ghost, Darkrai, and Giratina formes, I wouldn't say he's frail or has poor typing. Offensive Arceus-Ghost checks are hard to come by and his STABs are quite useful.
2) We know like 5 or 6 moves Yveltal learns for sure, there's still a lot we don't know about it. Xerneas seems to have a pretty wide movepool already and we're just at the tip of the iceberg, so I'm sure Yveltal's movepool will also be pretty good.
3) Chill out lol.
lol relying on terribly weak moves. No just no.
Xerneas in Haruno logic there are only two types of accuracy. 100% accuracy or under 100% accuracy. All under 100% accuracy are equal so thus going from under 100% to under 100% isn't considered a buff.
130/90/90 is strictly better than Tornadus-T, Thundurus, Skymin, Rayquaza, Mewtwo, Landorus, Genesect, and every Deoxys besides D.1. I never said poor offensive typing. I said he has shitty moves (lol at two 80 base power stabs though dark pulse/foul play get double stab but mehs). 130/90/90 is absolutely pitiful bulk by uber standards if you factor in sr damage, and how it's weak to ice/elec/rock/fairy. 4 major weaknesses.
This is the XY Metagame Speculation thread.2. I'm sure, seems, more speculation. Overall has no water, it's better to use what we already know/have on hand than theorymon things that we think/hope it might have. So overall I'm not seeing your point.
I wonder what is consider bulky in Uber to you. 150/120/120? Oh wait... those are the stats of Giratina-a which is a WALL. With SR being nerfed this gen, 130/90/90 is pretty damn solid especially for an offensive mon.oblivion wing is weak, yveltal is pretty frail with a pretty shit typing and sr weak. Foul play is better than dark pulse though so no coplaints there. But having 135ish base offenses and relying on 80> bp moves? Lol. That is awful.
Icyman doesn't visit uber chats much though since anyone that does knows that any moves that has under 100% accuracy is the same to me. Not to mention you'll miss approx 13% less often if you really take it at face value but I digress lol.

It really does seem like that that since we are here to DISCUSS moveset possibilities and instead i was laughed atPlease use some proper grammar and spelling so that we see you as a mature and respectable person, rather than an illiterate child.
