no, because my heatran won't die. if heatran comes in on the sd, ferro will get demolished by lava plume before it can do anything

obviously you don't know the set?

Good luck.
 
idk, his entier strategy is to set up rocks, explode, then spam brave bird, i think sky battle has much to do with this, that i think is just coincidence
 
Do people complaining about legends count? Because they kept ranting after the game, but the fact that Kyu-B and Latias didn't even touch the field is what's silly (it was a beautiful [gg] game).
 
I never knew Eviolite worked with Slowbro.

Turn 17

hyphennnnnn withdrew Azumarill!

hyphennnnnn sent out Slowbro!
Pointed stones dug into the opposing Slowbro!

Conkeldurr used Knock Off!
It's super effective! The opposing Slowbro lost 53% of its health!
Conkeldurr knocked off the opposing Slowbro's Eviolite!

- ice punch dnite
- switching volcarona into said dnite and using bug buzz on it
- dnite going for ice punch on espeon when it should've just d-clawed. maybe he was worried about it having a sash and fishing for freeze hax?
- red card venusaur
- using sludge bomb and superpower on an aegislash. why?

I use ineffective moves on Aegislash every once in a while when I'm predicting a KS and my only other options are contact moves. Why he didn't just EQ it to death is a bigger question, though I've made that mistake before too. There are so many Levitating Ghosts that it's not entirely unreasonable to assume that he borked up and assumed Aegislash has Levitate, especially since its sprite actually levitates.
 
I've seen a Gyarados with Thunderbolt and, on mega evolving, it used Bite. On the same team, the fellow had a Sableye with Assault Vest (I found it out when I used my Gliscor's knock off) and a Chansey holding a Lucky Punch and using moves like Egg Bomb and Power up Punch.
Also, he had a Talonflame without Gale Wings, which kept using Flamethrower on my Heatran.

Gonna go ahead and point out that, as stupid as it sounds, Bite is actually MegaDos's most powerful STAB option for its Dark typing. Pretty much better not to bother and to save the slot for a coverage move, but there it is. The only other option is Payback, which I don't believe gets much use on a sweeper that frequently runs DD.

AV Sableye: Jeez. This is like running CB Smeargle. Or, god forbid, AV Smeargle.

I got nothing for the rest. I'm straight-up unable to envision a situation where Gyarados could make much use out of a special coverage move, where Chansey could make a dangerous physical attacker, or Flamethrowering a Heatran makes any sense whatsoever.
 
Not a bird
Not really a bird

Lol was kinda looking forward to seeing the other nicknames.

Also, dayum, if there is any proof of flying being the best offensive typing right now... Well

Wasn't it always practically the best offensive typing available, only hampered by SR shredding anything with a Flying STAB and being overshadowed by rain-boosted Water attacks?

Rain nerf, rocks nerf, now it's all bird turf. I can deal with that. At least Flying-types are fragile.
