Lycanroc-Midday does a decent job of checking Weavile. It's almost like a rock Weavile itself. A slightly weaker, slightly slower rock Weavile with a worse movepool. Accelerock lets it force things out that Weavile can't, like Volcarona, while also threatening fliers similar to Weavile, just on...

Curse doesn't function that way for Ghost-types.

I'm guilty of leaving before the match is over sometimes; and it's mostly as Dragontamer has described. There are certain points in matches where it's clear you've lost, and there's no point in continuing. While good sportsmanship is a good quality of people, expecting it out of everyone in a...

Just a few points; Salamence doesn't have the unique speed tier to make him outspeed all base 100s. Tyranitar's typing is fairly atrocious (and he has a more reliable counter for most standard sets in Hitmontop). Gengar is particularly dangerous, as is Infernape, but they both suffer from having...

Stick with HP Fire. HP Electric will let you hit Gyarados SE... but then again, Bulkydos is already a potiential 2HKO by Grass Knot anyway. However, HP Electric means that Bronzong can stay in all day without much to worry about. Fliers will already have a problem if Stealth Rock out. Seems...

This would be my worry. Even if it's one Tyranitar/Hippowdown and 5 Garchomps, SubDance Chomp in Sandstorm has to work 'eventually', unless you're very unlucky. I'm not sure if this would be very common or used at all, but the thought of it after seeing what one miss on just one SubDance...

It's a 2HKO in Sandstorm, at the very least; then again, I don't see many CB Garchomps because they get eaten on the revenge kill by Weavile and Starmie. If, for some reason, someone's running a CB over CS and uses Outrage and you switch your (Smogon's Support) Cresselia in, yeah, your Cresselia...

If just to settle the issue once and for all, I wouldn't be against a test. I do not have high expectations, in regards to that this test will make several Poke`mon in the Uber tier viable in OU; as I feel several on the list are there for good reason. However, if it will ease everyones'...

Two things. Salamence can learn Hydro Pump. It's one of Bagon's Egg Moves. Tyranitar is Rock/Dark. Not Ground.

Steel, Ground, Ice works pretty well.

I was going to use an Espeon for similar purposes with the Flame Orb, and I believe I read in one of the D/P Research topics that it did not work.

Even then, there really isn't. A neutral Surf hits for 142, 2 damage more than a Super Effective Hidden Power Fire.

Item Clause: You may only use 1 of each item on a given team. For example, with this clause you cannot use 2 or more Leftovers on the same team. Sleep Clause: Only one Pokemon can be put to sleep by your opponent's effects intentionally. If more than one is asleep at the same time by your...

Ah, right. Sorry about that.

Aside; if Tyranitar got switched in before Garchomp, then Garchomp had Sand Veil in effect, so it was more than 5% miss chance. Aside, it was a pretty decent battle. I wasn't particularly bored or tired of reading all the way through it.

Ludicolo is not weak to Ice. On topic, the battle was allright and it's good seeing some less standard teams, but I found myself skipping a lot about half-way through since the commentary wasn't very interesting or entertaining.

Neutral Nature Bronzong with 188 ATK EVs KOs Blissey 100.84% - 118.63%. That's 261 ATK. Neutral Nature Golem with 20 ATK EVs KOs Blissey 100.84% - 118.63%. That, too, is 261 ATK. So to KO Blissey for sure with Explosion, 261 ATK is necessary. However, if you simply meant how low can an ATK be...

No. Sand Attack reduces accuracy, which is resolved by a switch-out; whereas Double Team and Minimize isn't so easy to get rid of.

Bronzong learns Stealth Rock and Explosion. And it's quite common for him to have them.

I can't really blame him for getting frustrated with the OU metagame, since outside of ARing teams to test, you have to breed and EV Train each 'well is this going to work' team. However, I will say that once you get into it enough, it's not too bad and will eventually start working to your...
