Personally i run enough speed to outpace max Speed Dragonite
Ferrothorn.
I'd say Swampert, no?
I already have a ferrothorn on my team, it's my spikes user. what i want is a SR lead so i can use spikes and not stealth rock on my ferrothorn, to maximize entry hazard damage
I already have a gastrodon on my team and i dont want Two 4x grass weaknesses what should i do? replace gastrodon or try deoxys S with
t-bolt, ice beam, stealth rock, taunt.
What about Infernape? It resists Fire, is neutral to Fighting, and has Acrobatics/Earthquake to hit them back if neccesary. Plus it adds a grass resist instead of a weakness, and Ferrothorn can take Water and Psychic moves for it (along with Flying and Ground ones neutrally, though you say you have Claydol so that helps with ground moves anyway).
Thundurus usually wrecks any rainteam, once it managed to get a nasty plot. You need something faster in order to get it dead. Starmie usually can take care of in, assuming you have more than 353 speed. Of couse Starmie is not a counter but good enough to scare a bit, assuning you get it in somehow. It gets a clean OHKO by Surf in rain.
am i the only one who has problems loading smogon pages?
hows the work going on main page strategy dex?

does magic guard make a pokemon immune to perish song?
No, Magic Guard only blocks indirect damage, which perish song's making you faint after three turns does not count as.
ah, thanks, every google search result was telling me otherwise
so the only pokemon immune to perish song are those with soundproof, not magic guard
hmmm
===
EDIT: if i created a spreadsheet that made it easy to make speed tiers, and added to that spreadsheet the suggested spreads of the 54 most-used pokemon in OU according to the june PO statistics (well, i took out garchomp, so that's 53), both before and after a boost if they have speed-boosting moves, where would i post that?

If youre new maybe you should start with the OU tier since its the one most people play.
A water type.
No, but JK. The most common OU Fire-type Pokemon would be Heatran, Volcarona, Infernape, Darmanitan, and, well, I can't really think of any others. They're all grounded Fire-type Pokemon, making them REALLY weak to hazards. Anything that sets up hazards already helps you against them. Likewise, Water-type Pokemon such as Vaporeon can threaten them with Surf. Or, in the case of Volcarona, can Roar it out as it sets up Quiver Dance. Flash Fire Pokemon such as your own Heatran do relatively well against them as well, but must watch out for Infernape Close Combat or Darmanitan Superpower/Earthquake. Choice Band Azumarill threatens them with its Aqua Jet. Dragon-type Pokemon such as Dragonite resist their Fire-type attacks and threaten them with set up or Earthquake and such. All in all, they're relatively easy to handle if you have something to resist it and hazards to weaken them.
Wow thanks. I think ill use choice heatran with earth power then.
Can someone give me a decent list of good receivers for SubPass Jolteon?
