Hey Amir, this picture really spoke to me. What's it depicting? https://www.facebook.com/SmogonU/photos/pcb.10157187095557390/10157187093997390/?type=3&theater

How did people fuck up so hard on the MGar Suspect test? I read through most of the posts and the core argument for banning it (removal of choice) got down to the very core of Pokemon...smh Anyways, what makes Klefki such a good mon in Ubers? I can see how it's typing and Prankster would help...

DaKakz this might help you as well I use a specially defensive Gastrodon to take on the Nidos. It's a hard counter to both and either threatens back with a Scald (or Earth Power) or can heal back up. It takes ~35% min to ~40% max from Earth Power IIRC. The set is: Gastrodon @ Leftovers...

Twister is a horrible move choice... It has 40 BP, lower than HP Ice, and only hits dragons super-effectively. While Twister may have better neutral coverage, it still leaves Serperior walled by Steels. Besides, while you' at it, why don't you use HP Dragon instead? (Not really)

Quick side note... You cannot be a good man-to-man defender if you are "physically limited". Bruce Bowen had amazing lateral quickness and very quick hands that would contest every shot pretty much... Nash plays point guard, a position that doesn't require supreme athleticism to be effective on...

Yeah, if he didn't step up then the Clips probably would have lost by 10 or more... But he's been playing very well all season in a limited role. He's decent at running an offense, but as the best offensive option off the bench he's really been lighting the scoreboard up. His defense is still...
