Do we have any information on how life dew works in singles? Goodra might be able to make good use of it.

I've seen a drastic rise in snatch use over the last couple of days. Seems like the meta is trying to counter belly drum a bit.

I'd like to nominate Cottonee to move from A- to A. I've really liked this guy a lot recently. It has priority taunt, encore, stun spore, switcheroo, defog, substitute, tailwind, attract (although this is a little too inconsistent in my opinion), and worry seed. And it also has access to...

Can anyone explain the Moltres rank? I never saw it on ladder back when I played BW back in the day and I came to the thread to figure out my team. I'm sure it's a very competent mon, but I really don't know what it does.

I guess people arent fans of tspikes. Anyway, I have to agree that team 9 seems to be the best of the bunch.

Bring a stallbreaker that works for your team Vincune, pressure zapdos, clef, CM bro, stormtran, etc. You can tech against sab stall. Now, this tech may not beat every sab stall (see storm tran), but it's not impossible by any stretch for non sab stall to beat sab stall.

Most limiting =/= limiting to the point in which it needs to be banned. Aberforth brought up plenty of strong sab stall checks and you even brought a few up yourself.

It's been a while since I've posted here, but this seemed like a good way to get the teambuilding juices going for Sun and Moon. Anyway, here's the team. Cofagrigus @ Leftovers Ability: Mummy EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD Bold Nature - Toxic Spikes - Pain Split - Hex - Will-O-Wisp...

This is a two way street friend, if the fact that sableye is a matchup headache keeps being brought up, then the point of how easily countered Sableye is will continue to come up as well. It's the natural progression of the argument. If you want something else other than recycled ideas from...

You know what else is matchup based? Literally every single Pokemon in the game. It's the degree with which they limit matchups which is important. Swagger and baton pass also forced you to run Pokemon that were generally fairly poor in most other matchups (which isnt really the case with...

He also specified why there were plenty of reasons why stall was still skill based in terms of in game plays as well (pivoting and the like), so I don't see the issue with a small excerpt about team-building as well. Also, if those people like gen 4, they will likely play gen 4 over gen 6 since...

Look, I don't want to try to change your beliefs and if you just want to use your favorites, I will not stop you. However, the point of a competitive metagame is not to make every Pokemon viable, but instead it is to create a fun and interesting game for people to enjoy. Smogon has tiers to...

The meta has adapted to not breaking stall with hazards. Should we ban Clefable and Quagsire because they get rid of another common way of beating stall? Is Chansey's omnipresence on stall an issue because it completely shuts down a large portion of Pokemon? This honestly just screams boredom...
