252+ Atk Choice Band Metagross Earthquake vs. 168 HP / 16 Def Metagross: 290-342 (84.5 - 99.7%) -- guaranteed 2HKO 252+ Atk Choice Band Metagross Earthquake vs. 168 HP / 12 Def Metagross: 292-344 (85.1 - 100.2%) -- 6.3% chance to OHKO No, it matters for avoiding the ohko. Again, you can...

The issue with that is that doing so puts the attack investment exactly 4 evs below an ev jump point, which is inefficient. You can ofc drop some bulk, but it's noteworthy that you can only ever have 2 out of 3 on getting the jump point, living +1 mence/tar eq, banded meta eq, unbanded mash, and...

There's also an argument to be made that bo3 actually takes less prep than bo1, or at least only similar amounts. Because in bo1 a single game decides the matchup, people tend to try to get the perfect team vs a given opponent, often building something very specific that requires a lot of...

White herb is gone lol, so are stat berries. It'd almost have to be lefties spam on every mon, maaybe aero would prefer lum in some situations. But yeah the fact that the only viable offensive is lum berry further solidifies my point that it would probably be a donphan/steelix skarmbliss stall fest

Looking at this, the most viable rock resist available is machamp, which is insane. This means dd tar would be a terror, and aero might still be good despite losing cb. Hard to make judgements, but I'd predict that steelix and donphan suddenly become viable for lack of better options for dealing...

I'm currently bored, and got inspired by the post above to post my current viability ranking as well. Please note that my ranking is based on how likely I am to bring a given mon to a tour game. I also decided to only rank mons that I (think I) have brought to a tour game before, as I cannot...

brranden Merry Christmas! The request was a Sceptile team with Spikes, and this is what I came up with: https://pokepast.es/700126d116b1b7c4 :tyranitar::skarmory::sceptile::swampert::gengar::aerodactyl: To me, Sceptile's niche is mostly that it is incredibly fast and has access to Leech Seed...

I mean yeah lead wak counters tar lead. Just go mence I'd say? Edit: I am illiterate. It's true that fpunch tar beats slop t1 lines. At the same time, clicking fpunch in tar vs tar is a really hard decision to make. If the opposing tar just eq's/bb's, you lose a lot of hp turn 1 for no gain...

won vs big will, gg and sorry for getting the low odds that I had to go for https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/smogtours-gen3ou-886642
