Name: Thundurus-T Replaces: Mega Ampharos Thundurus-Therian (M) @ Expert Belt Ability: Volt Absorb EVs: 104 HP / 252 SpA / 152 Spe Modest Nature - Thunderbolt - Hidden Power [Ice] - Focus Blast - Agility This set specifically fills in for Amphy's Agility set. The main benefit to using that...

I don't know if it's worth considering, but when I was theorymonning with a friend the other day, Clear Body Tentacruel came up. It has the use of being able to spin reliably versus Sticky Web teams, as it can get the spin off first with its usual speed investment that comes from outpacing...

I don't know if it was brought to your attention when an above user pointed out certain empty files, but several in the moveset directory for this month are empty, including ou-1500, which is one I can't see being empty due to lack of data.

Does that deadline include posting up teams? I want to share mine but not before I give it a go in Doubles Doubles c:

Just chiming in to say while 252 HP vs 248 HP is usually trivial, a stall Pokemon like Chansey without Leftovers really really benefits from having 248. If you ran max HP, it puts you at a multiple of 16, which maximizes passive damage, and since you don't have Leftovers, there's no benefit...

Something else to consider is a Relaxed nature used to be popular since you get the "slow U-turn" on enemy Landorus-T, which is a fairly common scenario. Now nearly every one runs HP Ice though, so you won't be able to duel with opposing ones as often. That's always my first thought when...

Why is only the finals a bo3? That replay is disappointing since it shows how Myzozoa only advances because he got lucky. This should be a bit more skill_based instead of being another bo1 gimmick like everything in the main Tournaments board.

Gems, like Grass Gem, boost each hit by 50%. http://pokemonshowdown.com/replay/ou-53324603 Berries, like Yache Berry, reduce only the first hit by 50%. http://pokemonshowdown.com/replay/ou-53325410 I don't actually use any of the 3 items featured in the replays but they seem to work like that.

Don't forget about the mix set, which is very popular lately and can run Energy Ball to beat Rotom-W / Gastrodon / etc.

Perhaps you're recalling an encounter with Rotom-Frost?

Ok, got a bunch (edit: too much? lol) of non-QC stuff on the sub set. I've been playing with it a ton lately in the top 100 of the PS ladder, so while it is by no means tournament level play, it has allowed me to explore many different things about Kyubey. Some of this might be a little iffy for...

I was just messing around. Plus I only knew of defensive Toxicroak from that RMT you posted :D

So when Prankster affects a move, it officially counts as priority, and Quick Guard can block it? EDIT: This doesn't seem to be the case, unless I missed something.

Landorus-T is a popular one, which gets Stealth Rock to support your team and U-turn to get you momentum off Pokemon locked in to their fighting moves. Not only does it resist fighting, but it has Intimidate to lower their attack incase they try to sneak a coverage move in there. This helps it...

When Ditto transformed I saw his moves, but he still outsped me (as in we're both scarfed, but I have 2 speed IVs).

Basically, a Volcarona switched in and killed something. I send in my scarf Ditto to revenge it - I see it has the standard Fiery Dance / Bug Buzz / Hidden Power / Quiver Dance. But he moved first. Like, he had a scarf. With Quiver Dance. Someone clue me in on his plan?

Apparently it's a set on the site now, but I always loved seeing those DD Latios shenanigans. They switch in something to take a Draco on the turn you set up your Dragon Dance. As they panic and switch to their answer to physical boosting threats, you just drop the meteor on them anyway. Mindgames.
