Research Group Mk. II #3 - Zangoose, Rotom-H, Braviary, Eelektross

[Ernesto]

Zangoose hits like a real truck. I was afraid that by leaving CC out for SD it was gonna have trouble breaking through things, but that +2 Facade wrecks everything. I'm having trouble keeping logs on PS, but here's my latest, too bad it's a haxy match were my MVP was Hitmontop (looooool)

6feetunder: as if my luck doesn't suck hard enough already

PS seems broken there, I'd fought him earlier and we had the same disconnect issues. Anyway, in a very haxy match were my top nailed two nice KO's and Umbreon got double protects twice (not half as haxy, but as it's something people don't tend to rely on it's worth mentioning), Zangoose left a nice mark getting two KO's before dying to Toxic damage. What's even more noteworthy, Facade KO's Umbreon even before a boost, which is something I didn't consider at first...

Two things to note about that match: Claydol was his remaining Pokémon and didn't do anything at all, sleeping throughout all 33 turns. Plus, Specs Tom didn't even make an appearance, though it's usually my go-to Pokémon (not as the Scarf version, though), since it's waaay too powerful. Also, Hitmontop > Blastoise :P
