Most of your read on Swampert is correct. Swampert does have methods to expand its lifespan, such as Protect and Rest, at the cost of Swampert losing momentum, whereas Annihilape, as long as matchup permits, can sustain while dishing out damage via Bulk Up boosted Drain Punches etc. My point was...

I agree with most of this but I would point out that a lot of Swampert's bulk is related to it's typing, and is largely what made it such a splashable mon in ADV/DPP. Annihilape has 3 resists, 2 immunities, and 4 weaknesses, with the only premium resists being Fighting and Rock. Swampert...

I tend to not like getting involved in suspect discussions for the most part, but there is one argument from the pro-ban crowd that I feel is misinformed: That is, the notion that Dugtrio does not have counter-play. Sure once mole comes in on a Pokemon it can OHKO, there's nothing you can do...

Sigh... I thought it was obvious but I guess I should've added it to the description. The whole point of choosing a max physical bulk investment Xerneas over the standard Geomancy variant is to deal with a boosted Mega Salamence who can easily take advantage of Solgaleo as setup bait. +1 252+...

Please tell me you're joking. Scolipede Baton Pass teams are strong enough as is. Adding another Speed Boost passer with vastly superior offensive potential is just asking for trouble. Plus that "120 physical attack and 110 special attack [which] are pretty meh for OU" is backed by 120/130 STABs...

But intangibles hurr durr. Toews wasn't even the worst player on the list either, that distinction belongs to Joe "never finished top 10 in points even once" Nieuwendyk.

A ---> A+ Move it up. I'm not sure why it was placed in A to begin with. It's supposed movepool issues are far overblown as it has more than enough tools to play with to threaten most of the tier. And while it dies to a summer breeze, it's status as the fastest U-turner allows it to get out of...

Just dropping by to congratulate our friend Staraptor for continuing it's streak. It's consistency is remarkable, Wayne Gretzky like even, having been sent to BL for 4 straight generations. The event is pretty much tradition at this point. Here's a toast to the eagle and hopefully we'll have the...

Youève been here 5 years too buddy. :P

Oilers, you're confusing me with eradd

Matt Tkachuk is one of the most classless players to ever step on an NHL ice rink. That's 2 players he's injured off dirty slewfoots to go along with the multiple cheapshots/attempted headshots he's delivered and he's barely even played half a season. He's actually even worse than a player like...

Super late, but damn, I leave for a tiny half decade and you go from the ladder incident to being a multi time major trophy winner. Congrats buddy.
