Focus Punch Gar? Sure don't see a lot of those these days. Oh well, even though it was short, it was still a bit entertaining due to the briefness of the whole battle. Very quick paced, just like ubers. lol

I usually don't use it at all, but the set I'd use if I tried it on my team would definitely be CounterBliss. It has so much HP, anything that can't OHKO Blissey will go down.

Tyranitar as a wall? Celebi has many weaknesses, like Tyranitar, and yet it can be a wall. So why can't Tyranitar be a wall? Well, does it learn anything that lets it heal itself, such as recover? Or is it forced to use rest, such as the ADV Skarmory. I think it would be more viable as a...

Random early on, and then I play very predictably later on. If they're trying to out predict me, might as well out predict them and mess with their head. But when it comes to them having the upper hand, I'll just switch to whatever would take the least amount of damage from any of their...

A lone Blissey vs. Gengar and Skarmory. I didn't have anything that could hurt Gengar, so I just used up unnecessary moves until it struggled. When Skarm came out, we were both at full HP. Luckily for me, he had Brave Bird and he scored a critical hit later on in the match, which put him into KO...

Aside from most of the misplays, Jumpman's SpecsMence proves to be quite the monster. :pimp:

Very nice! Random battles are always entertaining to read.

From what I see from the weighted usages, Gengar is rising quickly. It might even take Garchomp's spot in a month or two. People must be catching on to some of the overlooked Pokemon, such as Porygon2, Kingdra, Crobat, etc. Let's just see how much they advance by January's statistics...

The Sand Veil Pokemon just happen to have very good qualities, other than their Sand Veil trait. For example, Garchomp is one of the best Physical attackers and Gliscor is one of the best physical walls. Sand Veil just makes them...more desirable, especially on sandstorm teams. And as for my...

Lapras @ Leftovers 164 HP / 92 Def / 252 SpA Modest Nature ~Ice Beam ~Thunderbolt ~Sing ~Hydro Pump Resists Gyara's two offensive attacks and T-bolts for the kill.

His team uses resistances to counter things. He switches to Heatran when Ala uses Psychic. Like you said, the opponent's going to try to use Focus Blast/HP: Fighting next, correct? That's when you send in Gengar to own that Alakazam.

This warstory is one of the more entertaining ones I've read in a while. Great job on the win! (And now I finally know who Olympic Glory is on Shoddy...)

I really wouldn't care. Blissey exists for a reason. You can always sash something to take down that one pesky fragile uber and use walls to counter others.

I've seen a few Crobats lately. One of the fastest sleepers/u-turners out there.

Bulky Gyarados ftw!
