    Item Choice Scarf (Role in the Meta)

    Personally, I think this might be the generation that choice scarf leaves the smallest impact on the metagame since it's introduction. With all the strong priority being thrown around this gen, not to mention the existence of talonflame alone, a boost in speed is becoming harder to justify...

    Pokémon Whimsicott

    I think the speed creep from the 68 EVs is worth running, for the reasons stated above and because it hasn't really decreased my cotton ball's bulk. I've been running this particular set along side an offensive pivot Lamdorus-T with SR as a sort of lead/anti-lead pair. Whimsicott @ Leftovers...

    Pokémon Whimsicott

    All of the support sets posted so far have 252 hp / 252 def for their EVs, but the BW OU analysis suggests running 68 speed EVs to be able to naturally outrun jolly Mamoswine. Is outrunning jolly Mamo's ice shard with a prankster encore (locking it in to EQ or something) no longer relevant, or...

    CAP 12 CAP1 - Part 5c - (Secondary Ability Discussion)

    Even though it was talked about as a primary ability, I would like to suggest Prankster. Intimidate makes CAP1 more of a wall/tank. It checks/counters physical threats and regains momentum, hopefully just like the concept set out to do. Prankster (Mischievous Heart) makes CAP1 more of a...

    CAP 12 CAP 1 - Art Submissions

    Sentret, use the green one. It looks more like a panda, and the other colors just seem out of place. I'm loving the seasonal motif though. Yours is easily my favorite design. It fits the stats, the typing, and the newly chosen ability too. Who wouldn't be intimidated by a flying grandmaster...

    np: OU Suspect Testing Round 3 - So Long and Thanks for all the Fish

    That's not exactly what I meant. I just meant that latios has at least one common AND useful counter. No, that by itself does not make him OU but it does help make that case.

    np: OU Suspect Testing Round 3 - So Long and Thanks for all the Fish

    The keyword there is "certain T-Tar." Specially defensive T-Tar is fairly common and is useful outside of countering latios. It checks reinculus and is just a useful pokemon in general. Also, most Latios run trick in one of those slots to beat stall, so it doesn't beat everything. Am I the only...
