Someone please get vert to play gsc

Specs :darkrai: is also a great aganist AV Mola / Gking, thanks to its dark typing making it immune to mirror coat Darkrai @ Choice Specs Ability: Bad Dreams Tera Type: Dark EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Timid Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Dark Pulse - Sludge Bomb - Trick - Ice Beam 252 SpA...

This is awesome, congrats on the peak!

I've played you a ton on the ladder, congrats on the peak! Very refreshing to see a no nonsense team that can succeed even when you know exactly what is coming, feel like that's borderline impossible to find in SV

Mainly tera dark and normal seeing more experimentation (especially the former), as well as increased usage in good ceru revenge killers, to name a few boots/utility rai, hrott, cinder running sucker punch more, and most other priority users. I've also seen corviknight run brave bird a lot more...

A+ is a bit high imo. I think it's way too low and should be A, but it needs a lot of support, there is a reason you rarely see it outside of really aggro playstyles like screens and webs. Balance has adapted fairly well to the tera ghost LO set, and compared to the other mons in A+, it's just...

Specs is underrated, check these calcs: 252 SpA Choice Specs Darkrai Focus Blast vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Vessel of Ruin Ting-Lu: 252-298 (49 - 57.9%) -- 59% chance to 2HKO after Leftovers recovery 252 SpA Choice Specs Darkrai Ice Beam vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Vessel of Ruin Ting-Lu: 190-224 (36.9 -...

Sub is a progress making move lol? I never even said it should actually be unbanned, just that its not really broken. Idk if this is bait but the best playstyle in the tier is screens rn, bulky hstack isn't close to a problem

Yeah, I agree, just because it hasn't caused any major problems yet doesn't mean we should wait for it to do something goofy in a major tournament game, especially since it should technically be banned under the current ruleset I mean let's be real for a sec, Giratina-A isn't broken. Annoying...

This post outlines LO Ceru's strength and weaknesses very well, and I'm curious to see how to the metagame will adapt to it. Maybe Ting-Lu will start running more physdef to handle this set better, and/or faster revenge killers like Dragapult will experiment with different Teras to be able to...

Lmao do people really think ceruledge is a better breaker than wellspring? It's a threat for sure but it's also a million times easier to tech for than woger. For starters the speed difference is huge, common balance stables can either EV themselves to outrun or already do, like Pechraunt...

For the record, I really don't like using mola LMAO. It just fit too well here It also makes garg a lot less tera reliant imo, which is a significant plus

https://pokepast.es/56ddaed585272f94 I've been working on a :Ogerpon: version that has been having a lot of success, and is quite possibly better than the original; so I thought I'd share it here. It also contains other small optimizations, like Scorching Sands over Earth Power on :Skeledirge...

Yeah, that was a typo I meant ohko, also it doesn't need to live +2 play rough from adamant since it will outrun it anyway. So this isn't a one liner: What do people think of Choice Band Tealpon? I've tried building with it a bit but to no avail, what cores do people like running with it?
