    Metagame Metagame Discussion Thread

    A cool Pheromosa check and good Pokemon in general, especially with Aegislash banned, is Buzzwhole. With 152 HP / max Atk+ / 104 SpD and Lefties you always avoid the 2HKO from any move LO physically based Pheromosa usually packs, even after SR, and you always OHKO back after SR and one round of...

    Choice Band Tapu Bulu has been working out really great for me. Adamant Wood Hammer almost always 2HKOes max HP Aegislash after SR, Lefties, and Grass Terrain recovery, though you have to predict if Aegi is going to use King's Shield if you want to 2HKO it. Stone Edge and Superpower take care of...

    Pokémon Alola Exeggutor

    Lum Berry doesn't seem very good because burn should't hinder Exeggutor that much, as it should be running a special set or at least a specially based mixed set. Sitrus Berry is probably the best item for Harvest Exeggutor, and Trick Room +3 attacks its best set. This way, you take advantage all...

    Talonflame

    Sharp Beak + Brave Bird deserves at least a Set Details or Moves mention on the first set, having 30% more power on your main STAB is very important to OHKO Pokemon such as Thundurus after SR, Excadrill after two LO rounds, Scarf Landorus-T after SR, and even Raikou if you go with Adamant after...

    No, we will just start over and apply changes to the list we will have by then. And we could drop Espeon one subrank lower as Mega Sableye was a big nerf to Baton Pass strategies, forcing Espeon to run Dazzling Gleam and either forfeit protection against crits with Sub or healing with Morning...

    OU Metagross

    I don't like SubPuP. Metagross's STABs have terrible coverage, to the point where three attacking moves is a must, and PuP just doesn't cut it as a fighting move. Being able to take advantage of checks such as Alomomola, SD-less Mega Scizor, and Zapdos is sweet, but not worth it when it means...

    Hydreigon to C+ Great scarfer that revenge kills tons of offensive Pokemon with U-turn to keep momentum, great STABs, and good coverage with Earth Power, and decent wallbreaker as well. Honestly, i could see Hydreigon even to B- in the future as it's a really great scarfer which fits on many...

    Unranked stuff are fine, just be reasonable with your suggestions.

    OU Hydreigon

    I don't find mixed Hydreigon to be such a good wallbreaker, but i am ok with it being first if you vouch for the mixed set. QC APPROVED 3/3
