I first ran into this set a few weeks ago and it infuriated me, so I decided to run the set myself to find out its weaknesses and counters. In a mere 3 hours I managed to take an account from 1000 ELO to 1500 ELO doing nothing but spamming Swagger, TWave, Foul Play and Substitute. I'm an 1800...

I've switched out EQ for Crunch, Bullet Punch for ES and Adamant for Jolly on Lucario, I'm still testing Crabhammer over Superpower on Crawdaunt but it seems to be working pretty well. Thanks for the suggestions!

Thanks for the reply. I've opted for Switcheroo on Crawdaunt and it's working nicely, but I'll definitely give Bisharp a try, I think that might make be a bit too gliscor weak, however. Also, Bullet Punch was mainly for fairies, but I'm going to try out Extremespeed, I figured the type...

Bumping again, I could really use some help :)

Bumping and reserving.

VIVA LA LUCARIO! (A Mega-Lucario OU Offensive Team) INTRODUCTION Hello everyone and welcome to my first RMT! I have only been playing competitive Pokemon for about a year now and throughout my relatively short career I have specialized in stall teams, specifically ones relying on weather. With...

So does that mean they just have a bunch of high tiered players vote on the matter?

I think I understand, but just for clarification's sake. Do the people voting have to have reached that rank with the pokemon in question on their team? Are there any matches that are "set up" to establish how the pokemon handles certain checks/counters? Thanks for the reply by the way.

Can someone please explain what exactly a "suspect test" is to me? I've read the suspect test page but I still don't fully understand it. What does it entail?

It essentially equates to a 4 point difference in your Special Attack stat at level 100 if I'm not mistaken. This will mean that your attacks will do about 0.33% less damage than they normally would. This will affect you in the rare fringe cases where you're doing almost exactly 50% or 100% of a...

Can someone explain suspect testing to me? Currently there is a call for a ban on Kangaskhanite and they're talking about suspect testing it. I read the posts on suspect testing but I still don't fully understand it. Can someone explain it to me like I'm five?

I honestly don't have much of an issue with it, but I do use it on one of my teams and I will occasionally sweep with it. I think that Kanga suffers without speed support, though, and because of that I don't think he's quite uber worthy. I know sucker punch mitigates this to a degree but I don't...
