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.
Does anyone know if dynamaxed pokemon can hit through protect? Also, can they be whirlwinded out? Reading about how menacing stuff like dyno gyarados is and trying to think of better counters than just tank and hope to survive.
Cotton guard seems a bit pointless because there isn't much you can do as far as status besides leech seed and sing to wear down the opponent; regenerator at least allows you to rapid spin and maybe throw out a stab leaf storm as you can reset stats and health upon switch out.
edit: leech seed...
When you transfer Pokemon from other games, it apparently gives you a message saying "the pokemon can no longer learn this move" and asks you to remove it before transferring occurs.
Somebody who played the Nexus server, what are the viable options for defog/rapid spin looking like besides Excadrill? Really disappointed they took out Rotom's defog and pain split.
