I see. Thanks for the calcs man. I didn't even think about Fightium Z (think that's what its called). I'll give that a try.

I did not know Curse goes through Protect. Curse gets so little usage so I never knew. Wow. That makes Z-Curse better than I thought. Still overly gimmicky, but better.

Chansey and Blissey can pretty much laugh it off with softboiled then. But the big hit on Magearna is interesting. Do the calcs include Assault Vest for Magearna? If they don't, then I don't see Psychium Z being too helpful. Also, do the calcs include Psychic Terrain's boost?

Z-Curse from a Ghost Pokemon does fully restore HP and the curse does get Baton Passed. The strategy is way to cumbersome and requires a lot of circumstances to function.

I just checked Celesteela's weight and yeah, I see your point.

After seeing it at San Jose VGC regionals (on stream), I am curious as to how well a Z-Curse set on Mimikyu would perform in OU. It seems super situational in in OU, but I can see this having use against stat boosters like Pheromosa, Kartana, PorygonZ, and Charizard X, or super bulky walls like...

I've been using this Celesteela: Calm Nature @ Leftovers 252 HP and SpD, 4 Def Toxic Leech Seed Fire Blast Giga Drain I am very much aware that running Heavy Slam is important for damage. But damage output wasn't on my mind for this build. The idea was to chip away at HP so that safely...

How effective would Psychium Z be on Lele? I don't want to be choice-locked into Psychic, and I personally have an aversion to Life Orb if there is no way to reliably recover the recoil or negate it, so I am drawn to Psychium Z. I haven't tested it on Showdown yet. I personally prefer modest...

"meowwhatever?" I'm hurt :(. My feelings aside, I forgot to mention Toxapex as a solid counter. I disagree with lack of priority being the biggest downside. Pheromosa has Feint (not a good priority move, but it's there). Pheremosa's biggest issue comes from its movepool lacking anything with...

Completely agree. Pheromosa is more of a scout that a sweeper or wallbreaker. That being said, having a 130 BP move when most of your alternatives don't reach that level of power is extremely important. Honestly, I don't find Pheromosa very scary. Celesteela walls this thing like crazy as does...
