Yeah, but Phantom Force is telegraphed since it requires a turn to use, and then you can switch out to a Normal type to become completely immune to it. Not worth it, I'd rather use Shadow Ball or Shadow Sneak instead.

Why use an Assault Vest on the Trap Em' and Zap Em Set if you can't use Sticky Web?

This is just a question but since I've used Both Pokemon: How is Skarmory in a Lower Tier than Mandibuzz?

No offense, but that's not the answer I was looking for. I'm well aware that its not a great Nature for Rayquaza (as I mentioned before). What I was Asking is what can I still use for it: What EVs should be invested in, what Moveset and What Item should it grasp? Even with a bold nature, its IVs...

What can I do with a Bold Rayquaza? Not a useful Nature for it, but it's all I've got atm. I'm not very likely to get a Mild or Jolly one anytime soon, if ever at all.

I do think something good with a Foul Play could shut him down, especially if they can taunt him and force him into Blade Form. I could be wrong, but I think Mandibuzz might serve as a good counter since she can do both moves and is faster than Aegislash, not to mention the fact that it gets...

What tier is this specifically for? I'm not a great competitive battler yet, but what I DO know is that you have too many Mega Stone-oriented Pokémon. Remember: You can only Mega Evolve once per battle and you're basically wasting an Item Slot when you already have a Mega Evo.

Hi I made 3 teams on Showdown for OU and 2 of them are doing pretty fine, but one isn't. Members: 1. Venasaur with Stall Set and Mega Evolution: with Chlorophyll (originally had Ninetails for Drought support, but got rid of it) Toxic Leech Seed Synthesis Giga Drain Nature: Bold EVs: 252 HP, 4...

Yeah.... still not worth it, especially not when you can just use Flamethrower or Fire Blast 2 times in a row that would totally outdamage it. As mentioned before, these moves also have the chance to burn the opponent (though its based on luck admittedly), where the latter is not true at all...

Using a reset bag isn't hard, I agree. Getting a reset bag however, is, I don't have any with me right now. Most of the time you'll end up getting a bag that just boosts a particular stat, the other non-stat bags are rather rare and you'll have to be lucky to earn them. Also, even though using...

I don't really know sadly, all I know is that they're somewhere between 91-120 from the Stat Judge, I tried an IV calculator and I found it really confusing to use since I don't know my EVs, and I'm not really willing to try again. Sorry :(

Hey Mr. Aulbath/Rikuo (sorry, I just love that avatar of yours from Vampire), did you ever think about what happens if your Substitute is already destroyed on the same turn you create the move? If your Charizard is faster than your Opponent (who happens to be a heavy hitter), then is more this...

Well luckily, I'm not you :) *snickers* (Sorry I just had to say it). But thanks for clearing that up anyway, your soccer comparison kinda helped a little even though I don't play soccer (I prefer Basketball)

Yeah I know that. But since Xerneas is a Legendary, it's not breedable and you can only obtain one in the game. The question I was trying to ask was since I'm stuck with it, I'd still like to make the best of it anyway: What Moveset could be used and what EVs should I try to boost? I know it...

Can I do anything with a Lonely Xerneas? I know its not as great as a Modest one and prefers special attack, but I don't know anyone who'd offer me a replacement, I'm gonna be stuck with it for a while.. What EVs should I invest in and what moveset can I use?
