    Tournament SPL XI: OU Discussion

    This is something that I've been thinking about and is important to bring up regarding Dracovish. As a lot of people have noticed, teams look pretty similar, and although this could be attributed to how good mons like Clefable and Corvinight are (and this is definitely part of the reason), the...

    Pokémon Barraskewda

    I've been using Barraskewda on a partial rain team, and it really adds value because of its ability to function well outside of rain. Even with a lower speed investment, it still outspeeds the same pokemon, so some bulk can be added. Here I have it at 365 speed. Barraskewda @ Life Orb Ability...

    Metagame Mega Evolution in Sun & Moon

    Heracross is going to need EQ this gen if it doesn't want to become another mon on the long list of stuff walled by Toxapex.

    Stall vs. Offense http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/smogtours-gen7ou-250787 This SPL replay is very interesting in my opinion since Destiny Device has multiple pokemon that people repeatedly say are "stallbreakers", plays pretty well, but still loses to the default stall build. They had: -SD...

    13th team really has -spdef phero so that rapid spin does more damage nice compilation by the way, looks like some fun stuff :) also if you're looking for dumb/interesting stuff to build around check out Rockium-Z SSmash Barbaracle. It's fun and hits like a truck, but struggles with coverage...

    Announcement SM OU Suspect Process, Round 2 - Dirt

    There are plentiful arguments that are valid on either side, but the main reason I'm not a huge fan of dugtrio is because it makes the metagame more matchup based and therefore less skill based. People show replays where dugtrio does very well, and then it is refuted by examples where it does...

    Mimikyu @ Ghostium-Z Ability: Disguise EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Swords Dance - Shadow Claw - Shadow Sneak - Play Rough Minor change but considering Mimikyu is just going to take a few hits, wallbreak, and then die, Ghostium-Z might be a better option than...

    What's the best z abuser right now? I've had trouble against double dance lando but that's in part because I don't expect it at all (usually I think it's scarf). I feel like I have to pray they use the z move on my sack and then I have something to tank and revenge kill.

    Metagame Metagame Discussion Thread

    I'm really looking forward to using Bulu and especially Terrakion now that Aegi's gone. It can hit almost anything really hard with just CC+Edge, so it could be a great rock setter for offensive teams with rocks/SD/edge/cc. It's strong enough frail mons don't want to switch in often, and with SD...

    ORAS OU Mega Swampert volt/turn/pass Rain HO

    After playing around a bit with rain, I realized that Mega Swampert seems to be a major threat to many teams, so I decided to attempt to make a team around it. I kept a voltturnpass (or whatever you want to call it) core to keep up momentum and make the best use of rain turns. I'm currently...
