The problem is thinking that just evaluating the suspects alone based on the characteristics is enough to prove they did something. It's not; you can't just jump to conclusions without a frame of...

It'll need a bit of Special Defense EVs, but surely prediction helps here. If it uses HP Ground, and it's Moltres, it's fucked. So it becomes much smarter to use Air Slash, but Air Slash doesn't...

Stealth Rock is so deadly to it, you can probably get away with just Arcanine with Roar and a Wish passer. Works for both, since with Speed Boost it can't 2HKO, and with Tinted Lens it can't...

Seeing so many player's perceptions of the "tier where Luvdisc is usable" being shattered into a million pieces makes me smile.

They sure do.

But I'm left wondering if they're using real statistics to fake an April Fools joke, so we end up ignoring a prototype to the actual list. The list doesn't look too unrealistic,...

Yanmega is living proof that speed isn't everything. It's still beat by Crobat and Electrode leads, as well as Stealth Rock, which means it'll have to find its own niche with STAB bug/flying special...

Slowbro needs near max Sp. Atk Evs to outdamage Altaria's Roost because it doesn't get STAB on Ice Beam (and Roost removes the flying weakness), so that doesn't work for the usual bulky sets....

Lapras and Regice should do it. They can deal over 51% damage with STAB Ice Beam without significant EV investment, meaning Altaria won't be able to Roost stall them, and with Rest and Sleep Talk you...

That's a hard call. If it's LRcanine, they can just Toxic on the switch and bring in their bulky water to break your substitute (or defensive poison to absorb toxic, if available). It's not hard to...

Sorry - keep forgetting that nobody runs Iron Ball Steelix but me. =/

1 + floor(25 * 212 / 29) = 183 Base Power against Min Speed, negative nature Staraptor, but it peaks at 150. Also, LonelyNess.

EDIT:



Staraptor's Close Combat vs. max/max Steelix:
372 Atk vs 548 Def & 354 HP (120 Base Power): 230 - 272 (64.97% - 76.84%)

Still looks like a 2HKO to me. You're done for whether it subs...

In my experience, you're not getting very far without a critical hit on Slowbro; it'll just Slack Off the damage and go on with its business. I'd still keep the Vacuum Wave.
