Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Mr mime is still in so batton pass chains still have sound proof, they still got ninjask for speed boost, xatu for magic bounce, poltreitgest can shell smash batton pass which might be broken. I have had limited experience playing against gen 7 batton bass team's, but batton pass chains in gen 6...
Ah fair enough, it had the same accuracy as sing so wasn't particularly for the math. Ah didn't realise metronome could call lovely kiss still. Call dark void doesn't help since it just fails if a pokemon other than darkrai uses it now. The other moves that technically could sleep are relic song...
I feel as though evasion may have been more off an issue while batton pass was legal due to, an evasion move user losing one of their slots to set up evasion. That being said evasion is super annoying to play against since if i decide to bring a 100 accuracy move i expect that it shouldn't be...
How come moody is still banned in ubers, wasn't it banned as part of the evasion clause? Or is the ability to get a random stat to good even without the ban on evasion boosting?
i was trying to imply that megakanga was overcentralizing the game. Hence should be banned, as "countering" m-khan is neccesary or you lose anyway. (there isn't any counters)
If your battle 6v6 then your playing by smogon rules, and you hope your opponent does too. That being said something that are balanced according to smogon may actually be broken when battling via wifi as %dmg is slightly higher at level 50.
you should probably have something that can kill a ferrothorn, since it 100% walls that mega kanga, i would assume it also trades with talonflame. So your team needs a special sweeper say togekiss (who just so happens to have access to both wish and a cleric move). Pretty sure that if your...
So stacked, if you knew that much about an opponents team before making your own, assuming equal play, and no hax you could beat that team easily. So knowing 4 of your pokemon your opponent makes a perfect counter team. But if all your opponents teams were just like that you might wins heaps but...
The point of my post was to show that if ferrothorn did sucessful switch into a PuP, that unless kanga was running fireblast or eq it wasn't killing ferrothorn for nothing, it was left with 3hp, now usually trading your lead/wall for your opponents mega is a good thing. Still No one want to run...
unless your fire attack is fireblast, (which it could be). Your mega kanga is either dead n sitting on between 1 and 3 hp assuming prior rocks dmg, if you kill with eq your sitting on 7/24 of your max hp. Which is suitably in range of revenge killing with some of the stronger priority.
Wobafett can take a +1 return or crunch and ko in return, it can take a +2 if it has the repective resist berry.
+2 252+ Atk Parental Bond Mega Kangaskhan Crunch vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Wobbuffet: 561-660 (96 - 113%) -- 75% chance to OHKO
The kanga user can get around this by using power up punch...
Dragonite looks like a solid check until you relize the dmg calc doesn't work for parental bond v.s multisccale properly.With some math we get this which shows banded is indeed a check, albeit a very bad 1.
252+ Atk Choice Band Dragonite Outrage vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Mega Kangaskhan: 330-388 (79.7...
I can definently visualise the problems that megakhan would force upon ou. It issues seem to stem from the fact that power up punch is a move this generation. It just seems sad that a pokemon can be in uber with in item but nu without it. Never the less when your hold item give you 100 base...
