Would it be that much effort to tell someone who can't tell where to put something where it should be, and maybe even copy&paste the post to them to save it? Rather than just deleting their efforts. I think you need to check the definition of obnoxious. It applies far better to your rude...

Hi, I wasn't sure where this should go so I've put it here and my apologies if there's somewhere else it should be! This is a set I've come up with rather quickly to solve a few troubles my current team is having. I'd appriciate some thoughts on how effective it may be or how it could be...

Only had a breif glance, but will probably look back later... something I would do is run Jolly nature and 252 speed on Breloom, since it then outspeeds any Gyarados, Dragonite, Heatran and Mamoswine that lack a speed boosting nature (Considering that Gyarados and Dragonite have Dragon Dance and...

hmm ok cheers I've been getting my calcs from here http://www.psypokes.com/dex/damage.php and also this http://pokemon.marriland.com/damage.php. They both gave the same result, that unless Waterfall crits, Scizor will survive +2 Waterfall with atleast 14HP. Is there somewhere else you can...

Good idea on Weavile, I'll do that! I'm building the team for itemclause... this puts a stop on some of those plas. And I'm not losing my Rapid Spinner to LO recoil. Yache Berry allows me to set up in the face of an Ice attack, or survive Weaviles Ice Shard (I don't think I'll OHKO with...

Actually work it out, Scizor will survive +2 Waterfall from 252 attack adamant Gyarados.

Actually it's very rare that I fail to get up SR (and usually it's because I judged it better to break the opponents Focus Sash and switch out to get SR up later). From experience Dragonite has the bulk to take a hit, but not the bulk to make use of leftovers, while Choice Band on Weavile would...

The problem is after it dances (a Gyarados that doesn't dance is a KOed Gyarados), when it can outspeed everything I switch in (rendering Blaziken, except the Choice Scarf version, useless). It can then take on Starmie and laugh at thunderbolt, as it will simply avoid the attack and OHKO with...

I do really like this set, but I need Counter to stop Gyarados (who can be a problem at times). What would you think of replacing Bullet Punch (on my current set) with Brick Break/Superpower? Had a bit of a lockdown against a Restalk Gliscor, Metagross, and Chansey earlier when I had Machamp...

Thanks for that! A correction on Magnezone though; +speed nature, 252 scarfed Magnezone reaches 360 speed. I've got Weavile at 365 so it can lowkick for around 80-85%. Starmie is 361 speed so I can get in a surf to do about 60%, although granted it will lose (unless Magnezone uses some other...

hopeful bump...

How are you getting 568 for Marowak?? Shouldn't that be 284?

EDIT: I'm using itemclause, sorry I assumed this was standard. Thanks to everyone who gave feedback on the previous threads. I've been testing and trying my team alot since the last thread and this is what I've finally settled with. I'm not going to claim it's unflawed, but no team is...

Topic Title: Machamp (Choice Scarf) http://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/machamp [SET] name: Choice Champ move 1: Dynamic Punch move 2: Stone Edge move 3: Payback / Fire Punch / Ice Punch / Bullet Punch / Sleep Talk / Encore move 4: Payback / Fire Punch / Ice Punch / Bullet Punch / Sleep Talk /...

Thinking along those lines... I'm now considering replacing areodactyl with a Brave Bronzong, using Custap Berry/Leftovers, Stealth Rock, Gyro Ball, Earthquake, Explosion. (HP/Att/Def 252/252/6)
