    Pokémon Gardevoir

    Fighting type and Poison type. Besides, it is not necessary that you run Psychic since I myself always run Psyshock. It works better in most of the cases. And you can destroy Blissey/Chansey with that. As I said, if you want more coverages, you can forgo CM and go with raw power or try baton...

    Pokémon Gardevoir

    Mega-Gard suffers too much from the 4-slot syndrome. 2 STABs are a must for a sweeper. You might run - CM - TBolt/Shadow Ball/Energy Ball - Hyper Voice - Psychic/Psyshock It depends a lot on what your team needs. Energy Ball can 2-shot Rotom-W even if it's specially defensive so you might want...

    Pokémon Gardevoir

    I would like to contribute some opinions on your Gard because a 68 base HP with 252 EVs don't create a bulky set. Maybe you try to maximise her Sp.Def so that she can take 1 or 2 more special attacks, but Gardevoir by no means has a bulky set or anything related to the word "bulky" in my...

    A Mon For All Seasons

    This is what I think about your team from the first glance. Your team focuses too much on raw power. No boost, no support moves like entry hazards, like burn to cripple physical attackers, like healing abilities to deal with long battles. There is no Reflect or Light Screen whatsoever. I mean...

    Pokémon Gardevoir

    1st. Tell me how the "free switch back into battle when Scizor and Aegislash force her out" process works in real battle. As I said, Tracing Technician and Stance Change won't help you. If a Scizor and an Aegislash is out, don't ever think about stay in. Just switch out. I still don't understand...

    Pokémon Gardevoir

    damn thanks guys. My fault again. I think people use Toxic/SR/Taunt and Fire Blast and Earth Power more often than Flash Cannon right? Maybe with Fairies now being weak to Steel he will start carrying one. I dont know *sigh*

    Pokémon Gardevoir

    No the point about how Trace Gardevoir can somewhat deal with Heatran according to the previous post. Even if people still use Heatran, Trace Gardevoir cannot rely on Flash Fire to switch in. Her defense is terrible. One Earth Power might be enough. And I don't think Gardevoir has the tools to...

    Pokémon Gardevoir

    You are telling me that Tracing Technician and Stance Change will help you stay in with Scizor and Aegislash? You are telling me that Tracing Multiscale will help you to stand against EQ from Dragonite and Earth Power from Heatran? And because of the added Fairy-type, now both Gardevoir and...

    Pokémon Azumarill

    You made quite some mistakes but it's a very good use of BD Azumarill. But to be honest, gimmicky strat and pokemons are all over showdown, therefore 3-4 winning games do not tell you exactly how a single moveset fits into the metagame. If that Conkeldurr carried Thunder Punch, which is one of...

    Pokémon Azumarill

    Because you usually have 4 offensives with CB Azu so I'm kind of confused. What would you sacrifice for Belly Drum? But now I do the calculation, it is somewhat scary. If you can force your opponent to switch on a free-switch Azumarill, you basically have a free turn to setup a Belly Drum and...

    Pokémon Azumarill

    You are right about Sucker Punch and Shadow Sneak. I overestimated those pokemons. They deal about 30% with no boost to Azumarill. And btw, Aegislash 168 Spe is faster than Azu 132 Spe. And I might as well add one more counter to Azumarill: +6 252+ Atk Huge Power Azumarill Waterfall vs. 252 HP...

    Pokémon Azumarill

    Wait until you are forced to switch out after losing 50% of your health. One status like Toxic, Burn, Paralyze or even Seeded is enough. If you do the calculation, Talonflame LO priority BB does about 60-70% of Azu max 252HP. LO/Banded Scizor 252Atk/252HP can easily Bullet Punch a half-life Azu...

    Pokémon Gardevoir

    pure SpA and Spe. Try to work on your predictions and switchings. As far as my experiences go, after 10-15 matches you will know how to use her effectively. And remember, 1 sweeper does not do anything. Build a 2-core lineup around Gardevoir. I recommend pure Support Blissey and Baton Pass Espeon.

    Pokémon Gardevoir

    I don't have too much trouble dealing with Aegislash. And no, a base 165 SpA with Mega-form and good coverage moves are for a born-sweeper. But anyway, you can play her as a support if you really want. I don't really feel comfortable using her as a support since she is really fragile with bad HP...

    Pokémon Gardevoir

    I've been running Offensive CM Mega-Gardevoir for a couple of hours on showdown and I must say that it works pretty well. There are some opponents to look out for because they outspeed you such as Alakazam, Gengar and Scarfed Chandelure. With Thunderbolt, Moonblast and Psyshock you don't really...
