Huh. Quiet 68 Spe then outspeeds Quiet 60 Spe Aegislash and doesn't hurt Sneak. I've got an Adamant and a Quiet Aegi lying around, which was lucky. Funny how the low roll on Shadow Ball into Sneak is literally 99.9 against Naganadel. So for Celesteela, get chip with Mach Punch, DD once and...

If I read it right he changed his Aegi to be specially-offensive rather than physically-offensive, his old set ran Adamant 68 Spe. Would I be best served running Quiet 0 Spe (for opposing Aegi and Celesteela) or Modest 68 Spe? I feel like I don't need to run the regular 0 Spe set when Lax...

That was a very thorough answer, thank you!

Also, can someone help explain suropoke’s non-TR Gyaranadel team? Dragon-Z Naga, Mega Gyara, Hippo, Sash SD Breloom, Yawn Snorlax and SD Ghost-Z Aegislash. http://suropoke.hatenadiary.com/entry/2019/01/08/174238 I think since then he’s changed it a bit, switching Ice Punch on Lax out for Fire...

Yeah, I figured it'd be something like that. I was honestly considering biting the bullet and making Aegi into Chariot, but it wouldn't do much to fix the team or shore up the Fire weakness (although Aegi would do much better than Escavalier as a Fairy check, at least). I could maybe modify the...

So after picking this forum name years ago (when I was still a dedicated weeb) I've always meant to try and cobble together a JoJo-themed team. Since I only really play BSS (every now and again), I figured this would be the best format to try and do that. So I’m setting up a themed BSS team for...

i like playing mons

I like this. I like all the suggestions, I love Serp and Thundurus, but I'm gonna try screens Koko first and see how that goes. I had Mimikyu on an older version of this team but yeah it really is too good not to have hanging around.

Okay so this is my first attempt at hyper offense, I wanted to build around Mega Blaziken and figured that it needed something to help with Fini and fairies and water-types, so the core I chose was Koko and Kartana. Here's the basic teambuilding: Defensive Zapdos and Ferrothorn were my first...

Hi there! I originally built a prototype team with Xard and Swagger Fini, and Scarf Chomp to revenge kill things. Went over my team with someone on Showdown, made some significant changes (Mence for Xard, Lando for Chomp), and had a few battles with it last night, bar not being able to OKHO...

Hi guys! I came to this thread a few days back asking for advice on BS Singles, and after some playing around I’ve decided that 3v3 just isn’t really my thing. I’m giving Doubles a try instead, and I’d like to build a team around Zard X. Here’s what I’ve got: Charizard-Mega-X @ Charizardite X...

This is great! Thank you. I already have that Lando, which is fortunate, and I'll pick up the tip about shopping around on the forums.

Hi there! I'm planning on getting into the Singles game once I get my cartridge, and learning the metagame has been quite challenging for me. I was slowly starting to get a grasp of ORAS as a newcomer when SuMo was announced, and I've been out of the game for a while. However, I'd like to get...

They do share an ice weakness, but they have plenty coverage between them and I do have things to deal with Mamo. Rock is a bit worrying, especially SR since my only real options of resistance there are Serp and Mamo, and I have no hazard removal, but I'm getting the vibe that rocks aren't as...

Hmm, I like the Hippo idea, although Talonflame can check Mamoswine as long as I don't get hit with an EQ during Roost. Gonna keep that bird around over a Rotom. So Xard / Thund / Hippo / Mamo / Serp / Talon. Another thing I thought about: what about Landorus-T? EQ and Superpower for Excadrill...
