Not to say I don't agree that Keldeo is not S rank, but max special defense are not common sets for those pokemon. Sylveon is normally physically defensive, and Togekiss is normally offensive or bulky attacker.

You forgot about Conkeldurr which completely fucks over M-Tyranitar. I think M-Tyranitar is great, and I love using it, but I've found that it's horrible defensive typing really hurts it's chances of setting up. Also that quad fighting weakness is a bitch. A+ seems good.

I wasn't arguing usage as a reason scolipede should move up, I was making the point that usage doesn't determine viability, hence why Deoxys-D is 45th in usage. And from what I can tell, baton pass is not used in tournaments not because it isn't good, but because a lot of higher levels players...

Yes considering his anti-Scolipede argument was essentially "lel it isn't used enough", to which I counter

I'm not sure how you can get more convenient than categorized pokemon with a description on how to use them and why it works. I mean, sure you'll probably get more pokemon in this thread because you're just listing names, but that doesn't really help. Giving a list of names to a player isn't...

Don't we already have the OU teambuilding thread which does the same thing? This thread seems pretty pointless.

I was going to respond in full but you're right, we should stop before this derails the thread. I'm just going to leave it at making fun of little kids on the internet is unfair in my mind. Back on subject. lel

You didn't literally say that, but it's pretty obvious that's why you posted the replay. Unless you posted it to show how good of a player he was, which I don't think it likely. Well that's good that you don't think it's good. If your team is for just stalling to ride the lower tiers than ok...

And yet you didn't switch to the magnemite first, you let a lot of pokes die before that. My point is that if you're going to make fun of a noob, at least beat the piss out of them instead of struggling. It's really pathetic when you say "lol this guy is so bad look at them and laugh" and then...

The funniest part about this is that you almost lost (and probably would've lost had he been running adamant like he should've). People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

Ah ok, didn't know you were running a special set. I think the problem with that set is, while it can beat the pokemon mentioned, it loses out on beating other physical threats. 252 Atk Choice Band Terrakion Stone Edge vs. 244 HP / 0 Def Gliscor: 202-238 (57.3 - 67.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO - can't...

Could you explain how it can take on Rotom or Slowbro, I'm having trouble understanding how that's possible. From what I understand, it switches into Slowbro to absorb the Toxic, and then Slobro just spams scald/ice beam until Gliscor switches out. I guess you could sub/protect until Hydro pump...

I still don't see why we need to divide a rank with 6 Pokemon in it. Should we also split A rank into A++, Amiddlemiddle and A--? You know, just to be precise?

Scolipede is only more powerful than Sharpedo when using Megahorn, and since Bug is an awful offensive type, it can't always spam it. And I agree that it has a bit of 4MSS but it doesn't necessarily need either Crunch or EQ. Also you're forgetting how awesome it can be with a super fast...

Lower ladders are fun.

On the topic of Sharpedo, I have some experience using it. First off, I don't know how you can consider it weak. 120 atk with life orb brings it to over 500 atk, which I don't know how you can consider weak. Water/Dark/Ground coverage is pretty good, and you can substitute EQ for nice moves like...

But that's wrong. Xatu doesn't get Baton Pass, and M-Absol can't because it's even more frail, needs to mega evolve, and doesn't get Stored Power. The team IS amazing because it has Espeon on it, because Espeon is a Magic Bounce user with all of the qualities that the others lack.

Jesus did you get shat on by an Espeon as a child or something? You seem to have a massive hateboner for this thing. So you're telling me that a pokemon that is so important that losing it in the match means you lose is bad? How is that bad? That just means it's THAT much more important. Now...

I know it's been done to death, but I never get tired of Shuckle sweeps.
