    Is there anything notable Timid Mega Charizard Y outspeeds that Modest does not?

    You just stated why Jnyx is S Rank. Lovely Kiss is amazing, Dry Skin is amazing, and Ice STAB is great.

    Samurott @ Liechi Berry Trait: Torrent EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd Adamant Nature - Waterfall - Swords Dance - Substitute - Aqua Jet I first used this Samurrot before Jynx and friends entered the tier, but I still enjoy using this set. Like the SUbSalac set, the basic idea is bring...

    I still think Butterfree could be dropped, but I will let it go. Though I think lead Butterfree to prevent rocks from getting up is painfully obvious, and you can simply send out something like Liepard to Taunt it.
  6. NU Viability Ranking

    But Butterfree can only have one ability, which means, for the Quiver Dance set, it has a 25 % chance of missing, and then being promptly OHKO'ed. Sure it can outspeed walls, but Butterfree is revenge killed quite easily, as its bulk is really not good, though its Special Bulk is decent on the...
  7. NU Viability Ranking

    For Butterfree, its low defenses, and low speed, makes running Butterfree more of a hassle than everything. Most every team will be carrying something faster than it, even with a Quiver Dance, and simply kills it. If I want to sleep something, I would use Jynx, who is faster and actually packs a...

    I think Butterfree should be moved down to D Rank. It simply isn't all that good anymore. And I also think Probopass should be moved up to A, but I will write more on that later
  9. Munchlax

    That is really Munchlax's best set. And you win if the team isn't carrying something that can OHKO Munchlax, which is a big stretch. And Sleep Talk is pretty unreliable, as you could very well end up with Rest again. That set is good, but Lickylicky has a lot of perks over it, like causing...

    Liepard gets U-Turn. If you want Fake-Out Damage, use Kanga
  11. NU Viability Ranking

    Why not use Liepard? Fake-Out isn't doing much anyways, and Liepard has all that, with a PRIORITY Taunt, and Priority Thunder Wave
  12. NU Viability Ranking

    Charizard has Flare Blitz? The two things do completely different things. And Charizard has a worse SR weakness.
  13. NU Viability Ranking

    I would like to propose Rapidash to A Rank. With Weezing and Misdreavus being the most common walls, Rapidash's Flash Fire is extremely useful. Not only is Rapidash immune from their WoW's, but he gets powered up from them! In addition, Rapidash outspeeds non-Scarfed Jynx. With a Scarf, Rapidash...

    Primeape @ Flying Gem Trait: Defiant EVs: 252 Atk /4 Def/252 Speed Adamant Nature/Jolly - Acrobatic - Close Combat - Bulldoze/Punishment - U-turn This Primeape is meant to be a lure for things that feel they can jump in on Primeape's Close Combat, and instead get nailed by a Flying Gem boosted...

  16. The RU Viability Ranking Thread

    I have been using Rapidash in RU, and I think it actually desrves High C, maybe even Low B Rank (I might argue mid-B, but that might be pushing it). It is quite good in this meta. The thing that sets Rapidash apart from Emboar and Entei is Rapidash's excellent speed. This allows it to spam its...

    Prehaps I was a bit unfair, lol. But Grass attacks are not that highly used in NU, particulary ones that are locked into a Grass type move. It is also really frail, and Fighting types generally carry Stone Edge. I forgot about the SubSD set, which is quite good, but does that set give...

    I actually haven't found Scholipede to be that good. Prehaps I am only see noobs play against it, but I have never been terrified of Scholipede. Scholipede can't get spikes up at the start, thanks to the rock weakness (one layer of spikes, but still), and its attacking sets are beaten by faster...

    I was on Showdown! trying out my new NU Volt-turn team on the NU ladder under the alt Catch me if you Can!. Lately, it has almost become boring, the opening game always starting out the same exact way, and little to no major predictions occurring. As such, I excepted nothing better when I came...
