I run 4 extra speed on my Kingambit because I speed tied with a Brute Bonnet once and I got very salty about it

I was just coming here to post this core but you beat me to it! Kingambit might not want Leftovers in this case because that makes the disguise less ambiguous, yes it's the type of Pokemon where it mostly runs the same set with minor adjustments based on personal preference but still. HDB or...

Where did the custom menu sprites for new SV Pokémon come from? I swear they weren’t there earlier today

Hydreigon gets Nasty Plot which lets it rip through bulkier teams, switching into it safely is almost impossible until you know all four of its moves (it can’t fit everything it wants on one set unfortunately… or fortunately if you’re on the receiving end of its wrath!) Jugulis has less reliable...

I’ve seen some discussion on here that banning the sword kitty will buff stall to be ridiculous, and even if it makes stall better it’s NOT becoming the dominant play style. Blissey and Chansey lost it all (I ran into one on ladder with no-tera Tera Blast and Shadow Ball and it made me feel very...

Actually it’s not the third wheel of the bike it’s the third RAIL is the expression do you know nothing about politics you absolute buffoon /s

I think that revealing Tera at team preview will help a lot by removing the surprise factor and I’ll rank it first if I can actually make reqs (highly doubt this) but at the same time, it only removes the surprise factor and not the brokenness. Like sure, knowing that the opposing Roaring Moon...

I’m a politics nerd I’m sorry the fact that RCV is being used is unironically more exciting to me than the suspect itself

I ran into someone on ladder who led with it and used this set: Garganacl @ Leftovers Ability: Purifying Salt Tera Type: Dark EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def Impish Nature - Block - Salt Cure - Recover - Stealth Rock Tera Dark + Block on turn 1 and you completely shut down lead...

You can make a whole team with defensive Pokémon if you wanna play stall, it’s a legit archetype! Many people will hate you for it but it is 100 percent an option so go nuts

I was running Thunder on Flutter Mane solely to deal with this dumbass but now that it's banned... what to do?

I think you need to have used another move first, don’t quote me on this but try it out

I’m tempted to build a team with Jaw Lock primal-Mence (forgot name) so that I can lead with it when I see one of these guys on the other team just to be mean. Most players lead with Palafin so they can flip turn immediately anyway

Poison / Flying Fire / Psychic Steel / Fighting Grass / Water Grass / Flying Steel / Electric Dark / Flying

It learns close combat, so the last method is far from guaranteed... also, Gengar gets outsped so good luck with that.
