Aggron @ Focus Sash
252 HP 252 Def 6 Atk
Impish
- Roar
- Metal Burst
- Taunt
- Stone Edge

Immune to toxic and can roar your sub away.

Machamp@Flame Orb

guts adamant-252att/252speed

thief(lol)
cross chop
eq
stone edge

Well, first I will use a move that does jack shit too you and remove that focus sash's use. Next, after my burn i think I will cross chop you into obilvion.
 
I'm pretty sure flame orb stays on the holder even after it's used so thief would be useless there. It doesn't matter since Machamp will 2HKO Aggron anyway.

Claydol @ Life Orb
Explosion
Earth Power
Ice Beam
Psychic

Can switch in easily on all your attacks and OHKO with Psychic.
 
Dusknoir@Leftovers
Careful Nature
252 HP / 252 SDef
-Shadow Punch
-Focus Punch
-Will O Wisp
-Pain Split

Can't really do much to it with it's mediocre attacking stats, even with Life Orb. Explosion doesn't affect, Psychic and the other moves are shrugged off and I can just Burn you and keep punching until you die or switch.

Mismagius@Leftovers
Modest 252sp.att/128sp.def/128speed

Calm Mind
Shadow Ball
Thunderbolt
Psychic

immune to two of your attacks and gets the job done with shadow ball.

Thief was on machamp to do damage to Aggron, nothing more. The only real purpose is to make the focus sash unusable, because Aggron will be at less that full health.

Edit: BEATEN

-Focus Punch
-Will O Wisp
-Pain Split

Heracross@Choice Band
adamant 252 att/252 speed

Night Slash
Stone Edge
Megahorn
Close Combat

always appreciate the boost from will-o-wisp.
 
Weezing @ Leftovers
Bold standard spread
Fire Blast
Thunderbolt
Pain Split
WoW

Comes in on everything pretty much, Fire Blasts you, most likely after a CC sp. def drop.
 
That TTar doesn't counter Cresselia since it won't 2HKO Cress with Pursuit or Stone Edge while Cress can 3HKO it with Grass Knot. But w/e since MoP already posted Breloom.

To Breloom-

Heracross @ Life Orb
Adamant
252 Atk, 252 HP
-Sleep Talk
-Megahorn
-Close Combat
-Stone Edge

Doesn't take much from any of your attacks and has a 66% chance of OHKOing Breloom if it switches in on a Spore.
 
Not this again. I guess I'll bring up my previous Breloom counter.

Noctowl@Choice Specs
Trait: Insomnia [Timid]
EVs: 252 Spd, Sp Att, 4 HP
-Air Slash
-Psychic
-Shadow Ball
-Hyper Beam

Technically, this is a revenge-killer, but meh. This is based on the assumption that Breloom isn't extremely concerned about Speed. It gets a STAB'd, 4x Super Effective Air Slash that would severly dent Breloom, if not OHKO it.
 
@QuietLurker

What you're forgetting is that Cresselia is Spec'd. It would be very unwise of it to Grass Knot the switch, and after Tyranitar gets a DD in, Cresselia would almost certainly switch.
 
Metagross @ Life Orb
252 atk 252 hp
Bullet Punch
EQ
Ice Punch
T-punch

Bullet punch to break the sash and metal burst without taking much damage, immune to toxic, KO with EQ after.

The counters in this game have to be able to switch into ALL of the previous pokemon's attacks. I know, that sounds stupid if the previous pokemon was choiced but that's what people say in this thread.

To Staraptor-

Frosslass @ Focus Sash
252 SpAtk, 252 Spd, Modest
-Shadow Ball
-Ice Beam
-TBolt
-Destiny Bond

Survives a Brave Bird and OHKOs with Ice Beam or just Destiny Bonds.
 
@ Froslass:

Tyranitar @ Leftovers
Impish, 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Def
-Screech
-Stone Edge
-Crunch
-Earthquake

Froslass isn't strong enough to KO this thing, and sandstream screws over your focus sash.
 
Machamp @ Choice Band
Nature: Adamant
EVS: 252 Atk/252 Spd
-Dynamic Punch
-Stone Edge
-Ice Punch
-EQ

Comes in on any attack, and hits very hard with CB'd STAB'd No-Miss DynamicPunch.
 
Slowbro@leftovers
252 HP/252 De/4 Sp atk
Own Tempo

Slack off
Calm Mind
Ice Beam
Surf

Immune to confusion, walls all of your attacks, and can calm mind saftley and slack off most, if not all damage.
 
Golden Suicune's Slowbro

Raikou @ Leftovers
Timid@ 64/0/0/96/96/252
Thunderbolt
HP Ice
Substitute
Calm Mind

Just puts up CM's of its own and goes for the KO with Thunderbolt.
 
I was tempted to reuse Quagsire/Steelix. =D

Dugtrio
@ Choice Band (Jolly, 187~ sp def, max speed, rest in attack)
Earthquake
Stone Edge
Sucker Punch
Aerial Ace

Should be self-explanatory; Dugtrio is easily EVed to survive Raikou's attacks and can KO it back.
