  3. Gen 6 Creative / Underrated Uber Sets : V3 (No Gimmicks plz)

    Staraptor is definitely a beastly ass bird, so special provisions might be made. Also, yes! You can't change moves so quick attack isn't an option. The sad part is that I might have to sack smeargle... TLDR: I play BP so my sets change according to threats popular threats. Zapdos or Solrock...
  4. Gen 6 Ubers Gengarite Suspect Alt Confirmation Thread

    I am confirming my rank as both Metal Brellow and Mega Brellow. http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/uberssuspecttest-152260668 Its perish song set is by far the most annoying trap I have ever faced. Its enormous speed, special attack and shadowtag allow it to trap and kill anything that...
  5. Baton Pass - its role in the metagame and possible solutions to nerf full Baton Pass chains

    , Kingofswag seems like an annoying loser. I'm glad you defeated him. People are worried that if they change their movesets to help counter BP, that they'll be at a disadvantage to those that refuse to change. If everyone is making a moveset around beating BP then the meta is balanced. It...
  6. Baton Pass - its role in the metagame and possible solutions to nerf full Baton Pass chains

    The Bisharp's Knockoff spam doesn't always work. When an Espeon faces a Bisharp, a battle of wits and pure luck begins. Here are some possible scenerios that can happen when a Boosted Espeon faces Bisharp. Lets assume Boosted Espeon has less than 30% of its health left, and Bisharp is at full...
  7. Baton Pass - its role in the metagame and possible solutions to nerf full Baton Pass chains

    Any ban that takes away Espeon is a terrible idea. It almost destroys baton pass all together. If you don't have Espeon, you need to have either Smeargle or Mr Mime as s replacement. Mr mime blocks sound moves like roar and has immunity to dragon tail, but can be blown away with whirlwind...
  8. Baton Pass - its role in the metagame and possible solutions to nerf full Baton Pass chains

    I usually have a tougher time with Mega-Heracross than with Cloyster. If I'm running a "half baton/half Regular OU" team, I can obliterate Cloyser with a simple sucker punch after it shell smashes. Mega-Heracross - Armthrust (Counters Smeargle) - Bullet Seed (Counters Vaporeon) - Rockblast...
  9. Baton Pass - its role in the metagame and possible solutions to nerf full Baton Pass chains

    Replay 1 is definitely ass. Right after Kyurem died, he should have send out mega pinsir and went for relentless agressive play. He was using neutral physical attacks on a Pokemon that naturally boost its defense -_- (it made me cringe). He clearly didn't know what he was doing. If he would have...
  10. Baton Pass - its role in the metagame and possible solutions to nerf full Baton Pass chains

    The combatants in replays 1 and 2 weren't very skilled. In replay 2, Johnbolton made horrible moves and could have won if he got his stuff together. In all honesty, Espeon and Scolipede is all you need for a baton pass team. Everything else is filler. One can easily win with 2...
  11. Baton Pass - its role in the metagame and possible solutions to nerf full Baton Pass chains

    I recently read a post that went like, "BP>Stall>Regular>BP counter>BP". Oh no! How horrible must it be to have elements of rock paper scissors in Pokemon? Yet it seems a strangely familiar... Oh thats right! "Grass>Water>Fire>Grass". If you're having trouble with a strategy in a competitive...
  12. Baton Pass - its role in the metagame and possible solutions to nerf full Baton Pass chains

    True. That night daze gave me a rough time. If I would have missed anymore than I did, I might have lost the match. My Espeon couldn't hit mega gyrados and my Sylvion was poisoned. Priority moves, aggressive offensive boost/play, infiltrator and now accuracy reducing moves, seem to be the best...
  13. Baton Pass - its role in the metagame and possible solutions to nerf full Baton Pass chains

    Infiltrator Chandelure is a great idea. It can hold a powerful position on both BP and Anti-BP teams. I use it to counter both BP and Anti-BP teams since it has access to infiltrator, substitute, fire and ghost. It counters Mega Pinsir because of fire and Tailonflame after defensive boost. Its...
  14. Baton Pass - its role in the metagame and possible solutions to nerf full Baton Pass chains

    Baton pass teams do not neccesarily need Scolipede to be sucessful. You can be a good bp'er as long as you have a combination of Espeon with someone that can naturally boost speed or Scolipede with someone that has ingrain. The replay below shows how someone can bp and win, even without...
  15. Baton Pass - its role in the metagame and possible solutions to nerf full Baton Pass chains

    The point of infiltrator Whimsicott is to start off with switcheroo. If they use protect first round, they are forced to choose which pokemon you will shutdown with switcheroo. If the baton passer starts off with Smeargle, they will see a prankster, get scared and switch for a Scolipeed or...
