I've seen multiple Whirlpool Garchomp in OLT. What is that set meant to accomplish?

https://pokepast.es/beb572711de17d36 :sirfetchd::slowking::nihilego: :zygarde-10%: :togekiss: :zarude: This team is centered around Sirfetch'd, who ideally lures fat grasses with Brave Bird for Zygarde. It also provides a revenge killer for stuff like Azelf and Lycanroc, and completely ends...

I noticed that Skarmory seems almost entirely absent from high-level play. Why is that?

While it may or may not be fair to drop Hatterene to B, this is an extremely unfair assessment of it. Being Fairy-type is about where the similarities between it and Primarina end; Primarina is much better defensively because of its better bulk and secondary typing, while Hatterene mainly...

Why not Psycho Cut? This is why: 252 Atk Choice Band Kartana Psycho Cut vs. 252 HP / 144+ Def Buzzwole: 180-214 (43 - 51.1%) -- 4.7% chance to 2HKO And who cares about its matchup vs Toxapex when Leaf Blade has overwhelming odds to 2HKO anyways? Aerial Ace hits Hawlucha, too. Psycho Cut is...

This is my first time doing this so I don't know how to add the 3D models, so please ignore it. :toxtricity: :grimmsnarl: :mew: :moltres-galar: :keldeo: :scizor: I wanted to build a Toxtricity team, since I felt like people on the ladder really weren't going to be prepared for it. Pretty much...

Here's another thing I'm curious about: People keep claiming that Zamazenta isn't a problem for offensive builds, or at least not as much of a problem as some would claim, by citing supposedly plentiful offensive checks/revenge killers. Where? Where are these plentiful offensive checks, besides...

I swear, well over half of the posts in this thread are basically saying the same thing, that since Zamazenta is such a terrible wallbreaker, it isn't unhealthy. I believe these posters are focusing too much on what Zamazenta does in a game, and too little on what Zamazenta doesn't allow in a...

So your idea of a better metagame is to force people to use suboptimal options that render them unable to properly check enough metagame threats to be consistent? (I am not claiming that Cinderace does this, because it doesn't; it'd just force different 3-mon cores. We know this because we saw...

People keep talking about the "positive changes" Cinderace brings to the tier, but what are those, exactly? We have plenty of wallbreakers that break what Cinderace could break, plenty of pivots that can enable what Cinderace enabled, plenty of fast mons that can control what Cinderace...

Just wanted to use my first ever forum post to say that Slowbro does not matter to Terrakion if you're running Megahorn, which is perfectly fine as coverage unless you're very weak to Aegislash or something, since it's also a guaranteed 2HKO against Tangrowth, OHKO against Latios, and a slightly...
