I was saying that because of the insane stats.Why?
What about those stats makes it insane? 75/142/100 bulk is decent but outclassed by any defensive walls. While 144 Sp Atk is fairly good, especially when backed by Calm Mind, the fact that Delphox is running this stone, and also isn't running Psyhock, means that Blissey walls it easily, and stalls it out with Confide. Meanwhile, another wall that easily takes care of this particular Delphox, when it has accrued a few Calm Minds, is Blue Orb Magearna, as Heart Swap easily removes the boosts. 104 is fairly average for a speed tier, and ultimately, Delphox finds itself too easily walled to really make any use of its "insane stats" you say it has.I was saying that because of the insane stats.
Thanks for the advice. I appreciate it. Though, I could easily switch out before Magearna could use Heart Swap, and counter with Primal Groudon or Red Orb Shaymin-Sky.What about those stats makes it insane? 75/142/100 bulk is decent but outclassed by any defensive walls.

In the future, consider this; is its stats really insane, compared to the other Pokemon that can also use that stone or similar stones to it?
I don't feel like Earth Power should be used over Earthquake on Archeops, unless you know of a relevant target that I've missed out from using Earthquake instead of Earth Power.i'm bored

OMG, did you just post that after we discussed in the om room. It still is not viable in any wayHere's the stupidest/greatest Smeargle set ever conceived
Smeargle @ Red Orb
Own Tempo
252+ Attack, 4 SpD, 252 Spe
Spore
Shift Gear
V-Create
Heart Swap
After much experimentation, this was the closest I could get to an offensive Smeargle that could actually function, I like to pair it with a Trick Room user to get Spore off, and then go ham, with this strat, it's actually a decent Xerneas check, but it is still Smeargle, pretty much any decent hit, and it's down.
nah I've had this on my silly ideas team for some time, and while it's definitely flawed; it's a very, interesting nicheOMG, did you just post that after we discussed in the om room. It still is not viable in any way
It gets cappedWhat happens if a Regirock mega-evolves with slowbronite? Can it have 270 base def or is it keeped to 255? (know that's useless but it's just to test out game mechanics)
Maybe an altarianite set with frustration or return instead of play rough would work. Night slash is better than knock off, because knock off is virtually useless in MnM. That’s just my thoughts on purugly, even though it has barely any viability.K so idk why but I've had a growing obsession with Purugly of late and thought it could work as an offensive pivot...? Like maybe?
(Literally idc I will build a team around it if I have to like I don't think you understand)
Anyway here's my set. I'm pretty new to the meta so I'm open to stone suggestions:
Purugly
*insert mega stone here*
Fake Out
Knock Off
Play Rough
U-Turn
Thanks in advance!
Durrr... I should have thought of that hahah. Knock Off was pretty dumb lol :PMaybe an altarianite set with frustration or return instead of play rough would work. Night slash is better than knock off, because knock off is virtually useless in MnM. That’s just my thoughts on purugly, even though it has barely any viability.
There are probably better choices for that role, including base Pelipper because it auto-sets it with access to U-turn.Also considered running Rain Dance over Night Slash as a weather setter pivot for a teammate with Swampertite. Again, thoughts
