Hey guys. I'm about to start playing ranked 3v3 singles religiously on cart for the first time and I have a few questions regarding ZardX. What's the optimal spread and nature for a DDer in this meta? And since its 3v3, is roost still a better option over coverage moves like equake/thunder punch?

Wouldnt he miss out on some crucial KOs with a jolly nature?

I second this. Is it still the 144 HP/252 Atk/112 Spe spread thats up on the main website?

There's been some compelling arguments for Adamant Zard X being viable in the Charizard thread. I'm not completely sold on it yet myself, so I'll be testing it out. I'll keep pain split in mind too thanks! In Bank Celebi's case, it doesnt have NP, and Giga Drain's a no-go too. On WIFI I'm...

Been thinking of building a team around Zard X, as part of a FWG core. Charizard-Mega-X @ Charizardite X Ability: Tough Claws EVs: 252 Spd / 252 Atk / 4 HP Adamant Nature - Dragon Claw - Flare Blitz - Dragon Dance - Roost / Earthquake Standard Zard X set. Still undecided on whether I should...

Sorry I didnt mention it, but yeah I'm planning on having assault vest on Slowbro. Just wondering what the optimal EV spread for him would be.

Hey Chou Toshio. So what would be the ideal EV spread for slowbro if I plan to use it as a bulky attacker with Modest for it's nature? I was thinking 128 HP / 128 Def / 252 SAtk, but I'm also thinking going full 252 with HP instead. And for that role (bulky attacker), between Bro and King...

Ah, yeah the standard support set for tyranitar would do well for this team. I do need rocks support too. Will def. try him out, thanks! Yeah I was actually thinking of dumping 252 on SDef as opposed to HP, but I see what you mean. I'll be switching out Conk for Tyranitar though, but I'll...

Yeah, I have been having trouble with Talonflame. I like your Heatran suggestion, but I'm sort of avoiding using a legendary. He does offer a few things this team needs though. Any opinions on a CB Azumarill? It's capable of doing Conk's role on this team, and also counter talonflame. I dont...

Hello Smogon. This will be my first RMT thread on here. I’ve been into Pokemon since the RBY days, but just decided to really try my hand at competitive battling when XY came out. I’ve always lurked here since the DPPT days, and actually tried battling (semi-)competitively with a few friends and...

Ahh, yeah that's what I meant haha. Modest, 252 on both HP and SAtk, and the rest on SDef.

Hey guys, new here. So what's the consensus on the best EV spread for AV Slowbro? I'm thinking 252 in both HP and Atk, since he already has good Def, and his SDef will be bolstered by AV.
