Only on the physical set. I'm still building a case for tail Glow.Also you're forgetting Ice Shard.
iirc the proper EV investment is zero.
I really do think that Tail GLow would be quite broken. Remember it can still run Mountaineer with Tail Glow. In fact, you could just run the mix set with Tail Glow in the final moveslot, Mountaineer and Ice Beam > Blizzard and call it a day for just about anything that doesn't outspeed it.
And while we're at it, lets spit on all the people who contributed to Syclant because clearly their collective decisions wern't good enough.I don't see Tail Glow being broken any more than Nasty Plot on Azelf. It's slower, but packs a significantly harder punch. Sure, Psychic is a horrible STAB, but it also gets access to Flamethrower, Grass Knot, and Thunderbolt. Azelf doesn't have that nasty 50% SR weak to contend with either, and even has an immunity to come in on.
Now, I know some of you are going to say, "Syclant has Superpower!". Guess what? Unless he hits Blissey on the switchin, she can just T-Wave him and then Softboiled stall him. If he decides to go for more TGs, just bring in something that can KO it, which isn't a difficult task, especially with the Ant being paralyzed.
What makes this any different from Infernape and his NP? I don't see anyone complaining about how that's broken.
(sarcasm)you are sooooooooooo right! i think we should just take its stats and make them 200 across thee board, give him acess to Sketch, AND make mountaineer negate all moves, super-effective or not, for the switch and any turn where Syclant is in play!(/sarcasm) that being said, syclant really doesnt need tail glow. HOWEVER if enough people say they want it, we could do a poll similar to Hyra's first poll where there is no clicky poll and people have to defend their votes.And while we're at it, lets spit on all the people who contributed to Syclant because clearly their collective decisions wern't good enough.
It isn't enough it has 555 Base stats. It isn't enough it has CompoundEyes and an ability that Neutralizes Stealth Rock. It isn't enough that it has Swords Dance and Superpower, and can 2HKO Bronzong with Bug Buzz.
No, we have to give it yet more options, we have to make it stronger. Heaven forfend a pokemon should have any weaknesses.
Because the 14 polls wern't good enough. We should now appease the "we forgot Tail Glow OH NOES IT WON'T BE ABLE TO SLAUGHTER DUSKNOIR! It NEEDS to slaughter Dusknoir!" crowd.
So again, why not, since we don't give a shit about all the work that went into it, go back and give it Megahorn, Close Combat, and Baton Pass as well. It will be able to Tail Glow Pass!
dam this thing could 2ko bliss with a sp. attack after only 1 turn of setup, dont do it cooper. atlest not till its been tested.Tail Glow is broken IMO. It's too powerful move and with Tail Glow only real counter is blissey. There is only few pokemons that can outspeed Syclant. Swellow (rare), Weavile (can't do anything), Crobat (can't switch in), Jolteon (doesn't have chance) and finally Aerodactyl (can't switch in).
I love Syclant, but please drop Tail Glow.
TG + Blizzard w/ life orb to Blissey 50%-59%. It has nice chance to 2HKO. You can always revenge kill, but it can be hard because the nice 121 base speed.
If Tail Glow is allowed then I would use CB Bullet Punch Metagross so I can always kill it.
you superpower on the switch to bliss, bliss switches out, you tail glow. nothing can stop you.How is it going to get that one turn of Set-up?
Blissey switches in, it Tail Glows.
It hits, Bliss either OHKOs with Flamethrower or paralyzes with Twave.
Blissey proceeds to Softboiled stall or Syclant is dead.
Superpower + Tail Glow is illegal. Not possible sorry.you superpower on the switch to bliss, bliss switches out, you tail glow. nothing can stop you.
