  1. Other Trick Room Playstyle

    I've trying a core Metagross/Hydreigon in a TR team which I think is quite interesting. First, Metagross has the bulk and the power to use effectively a choice band, with the extra benefit of having a priority attack to revenge kill and access to trick to cripple walls. The main problem is that...
  2. Other Psychic Typing

    We have witnessed the gold age (gen I) and the silver age (gen V) for psychic types. It's pretty obvious why gen I psychic types were so overpowered, so I won't discuss anything else. The "silver age" was due basically because gen V was fighting type's golden age. Dragons were overpowered and...
  3. Pokémon Gengar

    Whats the problem with Dazzling gleam? It's an amazing move! Ghost/Fairy is only resisted by pyroar, wich is basically useless. Also is supereffective against dragons, fighting and dark types. You can hit steel types with shadow ball, wich is still pretty powerful and can deal pretty damage...
  4. Pokémon Krookodile

    How about an assault vest set? Thanks to intimidate his defense is quite high, and has pretty base HP too. Moreover, he has a really handy movepool for a bulky attack approach: pursuit (wich is very useful paired with intimidate), knock off, crunch, earthquake, stone edge, low kick, brick break...
  5. Pokémon Milotic

    Actually, Competitive isn't a Hidden ablity, and she can still have Cute Charm. I think a tank set with recover, scald, ice beam/toxic and maybe dragon tail with competitive may be interesting in a stall or semistall team that relies on hazard damage. Since this kind of team struggles against...
  6. Other Stall

    What about hippowdon for bisharp? I don't think the power ranger can stand many earthquakes. If he's behind a substitute you can always phaze it.
  7. Other Stall

    I would add gourgheist and tentacruel to that list. I run both of them in a non stall team, but they're a really great duo and I think they should be mentioned. Gourgheist-Super in particular is a really powerful check to many phisical traits for different reasons, including Breelom (The only...
  8. Pokémon Doublade

    Cheatingtaco, note that if no guard allow him to pass through protect, that also means he cannot use protect himself. Maybe you should run shadow sneak or swords dance (or rock slide, as you sugest) in its place.
  9. Pokémon Doublade

    Ok, I've found the reason he has No Guard: According to serebii No Guard allows you to hit throght protection, detection and similar moves! Phantom force seems a pretty decent move and, alongside with bounce users it may have a little use, too. http://www.serebii.net/games/protection.shtml So...
  10. Move Fell Stinger

    If escavalier learns it, it may be a decent move in an assault vest set, allowing him to boost his attack with the restrictions AV has. The same goes for many other, although Excavalier deserves some love because of its decent bulk, great type and stupid movepool ): He's an armored snail with...
  11. Pokémon Doublade

    Also, Doublade has almost half the speed Aegislash has, wich means he can abuse gyro ball more efficiently, even with his lower base attack. However he needs so badly something to abuse no guard...
  12. Pokémon Lucario

    Why would you want to use poison jab to hit fairies when you have adaptability boosted bullet punch?
  13. Pokémon Greninja

    I don't see choiced protean greninja is a bad option. He has a really good speed and decent offensive stats, and it would be unique in the sense that he doesn't use "coverage moves", since every move he uses has STAB. Hydro pump, dark pulse, waterfall, ice beam, extrasensory, grass knot, HP or...
  14. Pokémon Chesnaught (Revamp Occurring)

    Razor shell, muddy water, blaze kick, leaf blade, leaf tornado were signature moves of starters but were not exclusive to them.
  15. Pokémon Chesnaught (Revamp Occurring)

    Has anybody tried to breed spiky shield Ferrothorn? It would be a great addition to him, incresing even more its stalling potential. Roserade may have it, too.
