Precisely. I agree. Thanks also for correcting which pokemon I meant (Pinurchin not Pyukmyu or whatever). Honestly it was dumb that they didn't let Tapu Koko or any of the other Tapus back in when Lunala, Solgaleo and Necrozma got to step back in. Electric Terrain needs some new pokemon, what...

I don't know about OU honestly, since it really IS easy to just switch in Gouging fire where 3 Leafstorm boosts still won't be enough to do much. But you could consider using him in Doubles. With good follow me support Serperior becomes a powerful threat immensely quickly in Doubles. However...

I'm more of a Doubles Player, cause it makes more pokemon I like viable and i can play with legendary pokemon which is fun. But don't overestimate your screens. Another option you could consider is having an electric Terrain setter instead to really boost the offense obscenely. Consider...

Here's how to run Serperior. 1. Give it Contrary. 2. Give it Leaf Storm. 3. Give it Focus sash so it can spam leaf storm a second time if the first one doesn't kill your opponent 3. Spam Leaf Storm and Giga Drain until everything dies. 4. Spam other moves for coverage as necessary. 5...

No no no.. not Dragon Pulse.. its Draco Meteor that you need to run. White Herb Bolt should NOT be underestimated, especially if you run him on sun so he doesn't need that Booster Energy. Dragon Pulse is good though, but more for the Assault Vest/Specs sets. However, Vest is better cause you're...

To put it into context. Its like Solar Beam and Meteor Beam had a child and then they slapped Archaludon with the Child Support, so the judge gave him sole custody. :3

Electro Shot. You're gonna wanna always run it with rain. Its a waste to put Archaludon with a Power Herb like you would with meteor beam when rain allows it to run Assault Vest. Archaludon's probably in the same tier as Raging Bolt due to their immense defense offense, only Archaludon can...

There it is, that's what people keep doing. They write off so many mons because "Speed this" and "Speed that" even trying to make mons that shine as bulky tankers into jolly speedsters. Raging Bolt doesn't NEED speed. I've built hp maxed and special maxed bolt with Assault Vest. On a sun team...

To be frank, I wasn't saying "Its a bad time to be a steel type" Because the steel types were "Bad" particularly, but because Gouging Fire's entered the meta and unless you're Heatran, it's gonna be tough for most steel types to deal with that business. I still have a hard time dealing with the...

b... but I think Iron Boulder Looks cool. Better looking than most Paradox Future pokemon anyways.. To each their own on this. But I find that Trick Room takes a lot of "Non-Ou weaklings" and then turns them into absolute monsters. Regidrago has managed to obliterate entire UBERS teams...

Well Metagross is one. Metagross is one of the lowest tier Pseudos for a reason. While at first its Steel Typing feels like it can only mean good things, being a pychic type really kicks its knees in, especially with Chien Pao running Focus Sash or Sucker Punch to counter Bullet Punch. And...

Here are some less meta, but decent enough checks to Gouging Fire, and also pokemon that'll thrive fighting against Sun Teams. 1. Heatran. Its ability to absorb fire attacks like they are nothing and boost its own fire as well, and to directly switch into a Gouging Fire's Flareblitz/Heatcrash...

Archaludon can be a powerful check, as it is not affected by Burning Bulwark, and a supereffective Draco Meteor can send it flying. Also thanks to Stamina, you can accumulate enough defense that even under sun you'd be able to ride out most of Bulwark's strongest attacks. Its also large enough...

Honestly me too. Nothing too absolutely broken atm that it can't have a counter to it. I think that's mostly due to Terrastalizing making type matchups always up in the air. It makes move pool more important than typing.

it just occurred to me you might've meant "Choice SPecs" by specs and not like "Specs" as in stats. In all honesty that's a toughie. Kyurem isn't exactly a Nasty Plot user, and imo opinion it might fall under just "Blizzard" with Ninetails. You could run the same team I ran with Kyurem as a...
