  1. Shuckle (Contrary Shell Smashing Tank)

    What can be traded for wrap though? You'd have to use leftovers if you dropped Rest, and Toxic will far out damage it. Wrap may open up the ability to damage Steel types but it nullifies Shuckle's ability to do huge damage + hit Ghost. Shell Smash & Power Swap are vital to completely shutting...
  2. Shuckle (Contrary Shell Smashing Tank)

    Well this Shuckle is kind of even against both physical and special attackers, as the tier has more physical attackers than special attackers which use Rock/Steel/Water but he inflicts much more damage against physical attackers, he can force them to faint in 6 turns with Rocky Helmet and that...

    Fantastic support guys :) lots of help, and this is a great community! Will integrate the changes you have all mentioned now. 1.) A huge oversight on my part, thank you for the correction. 2.) Will make those changes too. Thanks! My reasons for using Gentle was to keep the Def/SpD spread...
  4. Shuckle (Contrary Shell Smashing Tank)

    It can carry Swords Dance & Rock Polish which pretty much turns it into a Dragon Dancer but with only two attacks. The worst part about the Shuckle is that Rampardos normally cannot setup very well with SD/RP due its typing and weak bulk, so if their Ramp carries them and comes in on the Shuckle...

    Swords Dance of course! Good point on the Poison/Steel, will add that.
  6. Shuckle (Contrary Shell Smashing Tank)

    Sweet! Is there any other <> stuff I have to include? Also if you could help, I'm not too clued up yet so I'm not 100% on all of the threats he may face. He's weak to Steel/Water/Rock so do you know of any key Pokémon he should be wary of? Thanks!

    Hey, thanks for the tips! Is the layout not working properly for me or are we supposed to view the <ul class="damage_calculation"> etc?
  8. Shuckle (Contrary Shell Smashing Tank)

    This is my first ever setup for a Pokémon, as when I jump into competitive battling I plan to start in the NU tier, so be gentle! :pimp: [SET] name: ContraTank move 1: Shell Smash move 2: Encore / Power Split move 3: Toxic move 4: Rest item: Rocky Helmet / Leftovers ability: Contrary nature...

    Ah, thank-you! I did not know there was a place to propose single Pokémon. I have never used it yet though so would that be a problem when proposing it? Cheers!

    Hey guys, I have an idea for a Shuckle I want to use when I start battling, but I'm not sure if it would be illegal in the Never Used tier because it will be rocking a dream world ability. Gilgamesh (Shuckle) (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Contrary EVs: 252 Def / 178 Sp.Def / 90 HP Gentle Nature IVs...

    Ah B/W2. I was just watching some battles on YouTube and apparently Icy Wind was banned on her, which would make sense as it was a B/W battle and 2 hadn't came out yet. Thank you for clearing that up.

    Why is Icy Wind illegal on Blissey? I'm honestly trying to understand all of this battling stuff but most of the banned Pokémon seem so arbitrary.
