Does anyone have a link to the discussion about the Tinkatink + Knock Off complex ban? I'm in a Little Cup draft league at the moment and someone drafted it without realising because it's not in the rules, banlist or viability rankings threads

I've been testing Hitmonchan out as a way to deal with common leads that are a problem for my team and it's surprisingly effective - Inner Focus makes it immune to flinch and Intimidate, STAB Close Combat hits hard enough to OHKO anything weak to it that hasn't Dynamaxed, it gets Fake Out and...

There's actually a TR for Power Gem in the game, Coalossal just can't learn it for some reason. It really is just generally better off running Flare Blitz + Stone Edge + Earthquake if going for an attacking set to make up for it's poor Attack with good coverage and high Base Power...

I ran into this set on the OU ladder and was really caught off guard by it and was super impressed as it picked apart my top tier defensive core with ease, so I started playing around with it and boy is it actually pretty damn good! Now that Dynamax is gone this set seems like a real threat to a...

Hi everyone, I am looking for a Skrelp with Adaptability - I have no Pokemon with useful hidden abilities to offer as trades (and my Friend Safari has Seviper, Ariados and Muk lol) so all I can offer are Pokemon with good IVs or X version exclusives. Please let me know what you want in return...

I come back from work and this thread has just exploded! Thanks for all of the input guys. So far using this method, I have managed to chain Riolus, Azurills and Budews with the Poke Radar, catch more than 30 of each, and I can confirm that every single one has 3 or more IVs of 31. Using...

Hi all, can anyone who has cleared the game and reached the IV identifying NPC in Kiloude City Pokemon Center help me to confirm this theory? So far every single baby Pokemon that I have caught or hatched from an Egg in-game has had at least 3 perfect IVs - so far I have Budew, Riolu, Mantyke...

OK, thanks for your input Setsuna. In my experience using it, the only above leads that usually present a problem to Abomasnow are Metagross, Jirachi and Machamp; I have only seen one Heatran lead, and it used Stealth Rock first (probably assuming that I would switch). Often I switch out of...

I have not been in this exact situation, as when I see lead Machamp I generally tend to switch to Rotom, (or they tend to just use Bullet Punch twice when I have tried to test it) but I thought that Magic Coat reflected back any status ailment caused to the Pokemon during the turn it is used...

EDIT: I'm sorry, I miscalculated; Dragonite is not OHKO'd by Ice Shard, so the extra speed EVs should be put into Attack, to help KO Infernape and Colbur Berry Azelf leads with Ice Shard, who are rarely KO'd with the previous spread. I've never come across a Dragonite lead who stayed in is why I...

This moveset has probably been suggested before in the past, but I have tested this set quite thoroughly on the OU ladder over the last few days, and it works rather well. So, without further ado, Anti-Lead Abomasnow. http://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/abomasnow name: Anti-Lead Move 1: Ice Shard...
