I don't have a problem with people suggesting things, i have a problem with people suggesting bad things when they definitely havent even attempted to play with the team before criticizing it. There arent any relevant ground types which are outspeeding diancie/zone (or even kingdra if you ignore...

When ground gets priority brave bird and aerialate quick attack let me know

252+ SpA Sniper Kingdra Draco Meteor vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Abomasnow on a critical hit: 486-573 (151.4 - 178.5%) -- guaranteed OHKO 252+ SpA Kyurem Draco Meteor vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Abomasnow on a critical hit: 400-472 (124.6 - 147%) -- guaranteed OHKO Kingdra outdamages kyurem signficantly and youve...

Critdra Hyper Offence Proof of peak Introduction Since its the end of the format and I'm going to be snowed under by uni assignments for the next few weeks until Sun/Moon comes out I thought I might as well post an RMT of the team I've been using to ladder at the moment. Normally I just...
