  1. Battle Mechanics Research

    If a harvest user loses its ability (through mummy or worry seed etc) and consumes its berry before switching out, once it switches back in with Harvest restored, can it recover its berry? And the other way around, if a pokémon consumes a berry and then gains harvest through, for example, Role...
  2. Move Infestation (and trapping moves in general)

    Tried Swalot using infestation and yawn and it had a really hard time straight up surviving whatever it trapped. I feel that recovery moves are absolutely essential. + hippowdon@lefties with sand tomb / slack off / yawn / protect however, was really effective. It can recover via slack off when...
  3. Other All Gen Battles

    Uhh yeah just posting six mon's with no further details doesn't really amount to much discussion. Unless people want this thread just to be a series of replies only containing lists.
  4. Battle Mechanics Research

    That was poison touch
  5. Resource ORAS OU Simple Questions, Simple Answers (Read the OP First!)

    Looking at the Greninja thread, it seems like it doesn't get pursuit. Is this for certain?
  6. Other 6th Gen Pokemon UU Candidate Speculation Thread

    252+ Atk Aegislash Shadow Sneak does 71-83% against 0/0 Starmie Offensive Starmie (252 SpA, Life Orb, Analytic) Surf OHKO's 0/252SpD Offensive form Aegislash. Without Life Orb Hydro Pump is a guaranteed OHKO while Surf ranges from 91-108% edit: according to serebii blade form has 60/50/50...
  7. Move Future Sight & Doom Desire

    Does FS work like so? X uses future sight turn ends 'fight continues' turn 2 ends 'fight continues' FS damage is dealt at the end of turn If so, It can be a pretty decent way of not wasting psychic attack versus pink blobs or dark pokémon. Opponent switches in expecting Psychic, Future sight...
  8. Pokémon Exploud

    Exploud has low kick if it wants to deal with tyranitar specifically I guess
  9. Pokémon Exploud

    Actually, just looked things up. How exactly does Explouud get superpower? Can't find anything
  10. Pokémon Exploud

    Oh it gets superpower? I think that might be a good option along with BB/surf/fire coverage then, as it hits tyranitar and pink blobs on their weaker defenses
  11. Pokémon Exploud

    flamethrower / fb already deal with most steel types, and doesn't have the horrible accuracy focus blast does. I'd consider running surf instead, to hit rock types more reliably. Not sure how useful ice beam is, Exploud doesn't really care about getting neutral coverage as a resisted boomburst...
  12. Other Defensive Fire-typing

    4 resistances actually, lol
  13. Pokémon Malamar

    Malamar outspeeds doesn't it? So, switch in on the swords dance, topsy-turvy, Aegislash is now at -2 But yeah, that's prolly the only case Malamar can deal with it, 150 base attack is pretty terrifying as is.
  14. Poll for our default simulator tiering level

    Neither are NU/RU/UU/OU/Uber tier separation
  15. Other Critical Hits

    That's not how Sniper works
