  1. Smogon University PO Statistics — May 2012

    Um, tyranitar/landorus/rotom-w/scizor is on pretty much every voltturn team out there. In my experience, it's really hard for latias to perform effectively when the opponent is pivoting aound and tyranitar is still alive. That said, if ttar does go down, HP Fire latias performs amazingly against...

  3. Great Defensive Combos

    I think FWG cores should be mentioned at least somewhere, as they're widely accepted as a strong defensive backbone (with support/checks to deal with things that your FWG just can't cover). There really isn't one specific FWG core that's generally used this gen, but they pretty much always use...

  7. What do you think is the most underrated Pokemon in OU? (Read the OP and Post #215)

    This can apply to some things, like Tornadus and Volcarona, that are recognized as threatening but don't see much use regardless of their enormous power. However, this really can't be applied to Scizor, as every successful team in the current metagame prepares for Scizor. Yes, it's a huge...
  8. Research Week #3: Rotom Formes!

    I made ~1450 with a rotom-C team a month or two ago, so i guess ill try him out again. Alt: ugh ill find one thats not in use and post it when im at a PO computer

    Um, what? The standard Latias runs 252 HP/ 4 SpA/ 252 Spd, with no defensive investment at all, and honestly it really doesn't have to work to not be "outclassed by latios." Unless you're trying to run full-on offensive latias, it plays as a defensive resource and in some situations it can pull...

    Lol, in my honest opinion guts is better than iron fist about 99% of the time. Part of what makes conk such a boss is that it doesn't care about scalds, and generally people won't toxic or WoW it for fear of the guts boost. I'm honestly mystified as to the things low use. It has enough bulk to...

  15. Smogon University PO Statistics — April 2012

    Terrakion has been has some of the best offensive STABS in the game coverage-wise and packs a ridiculous amount of power; It also has no counters to it that aren't destroyed by a couple of stone edges or can be taken out with just a little prior damage. It's also one of the most versatile things...
  16. Banning philosophy revisited a.k.a. return of the revenge

    @Vvamp6 By that logic nothing should be banned; if you want to play in a metagame like that, play ubers (which is actually surprisingly balanced) but lower metagames should be regulated. It's true that everything has stops to it, but some things are so powerful that their presence in the...
  17. Banning philosophy revisited a.k.a. return of the revenge

    This is a really interesting topic and there are a lot of interesting opinions and arguments going around, so I guess I'll throw in my piece on all of this. One of the big example topics going around is Drizzle+Swift Swim, and the complex ban on these two abilities being used together. I feel...

  20. Abomasnow (Choice Band) [GP 2/2]

    It's only really SE gyara that threatens aboma, bounce variants can only switch in once and then they absolutely have to bounce, allowing you to go into your gyara check easily and force it out to take SR damage again. Most run moxie anyway, meaning that they're pretty much dead if they come in...
