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.
Yeah all is not lost as I've had more than enough wins where it wouldn't have mattered, but I'm LOVING this team right now so the stronger the better IMO.
But I'll need to consider Chesto berry and rest, much less luck based, but slower and riskier to set up belly drum.
Let me know if you test...
This is the sort of logic that pisses me off. In your example you switch into a pokemon that gets outsped and OHKO, and then they snowball from there. Wow what a broken mechanic!
Maybe switch into Corsola instead? +1 Gyarados gets walled easily by him, and you can force the switch or burn/sap...
That's really depressing! I've been using Showdown for my latest team idea (Dubwool -> Hatterene -> Snorlax) and really just crushing team after team.
But some of my wins would be losses if the Showdown behavior of restoring 33% of boosted HP and always giving a berry are wrong.
Well considering I just got a GMax Sandiconda yesterday that idea sounds pretty good!
I wonder how my baton pass trick room idea would be tho. I'll probably try both out eventually. :)
Wow that's some really good feedback! Thanks so much!
Re: The speed thing. Maybe go Trick Room?
What about starting Dubwool instead of Ninjask, and having Ninjask replaced with a Musharna or Hatterene? Could be like this:
Musharna w/ some item (Synchronize)
-Amnesia
-Psychic
-Trick Room...
Thanks so much for such informative posts!
I really want to use my new GMax Snorlax I worked all night to get, so I'm thinking to try a set like this:
Ninjask w/ What item? (Speed Boost)
-Swords Dance
-Protect
-Substitute
-Baton Pass
Dubwool w/ Leftovers (What ability?)
-Cotton Guard...
I'm totally new to competitive pokemon (first game since gen 2) so I've got a few questions:
Does this event allow Baton Pass teams?
If so would that be the clear best choice for the event? I assume for it to have been banned in OU it has to be pretty broken, so would it be a good choice to run...
