oh cripes Manaphy discussion Manaphy @ Leftovers Ability: Hydration Tera Type: Grass EVs: 248 HP / 252 SpA / 8 Spe Modest Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Energy Ball - Rest - Surf - Tail Glow used to run this on Rain, 100 / 100 / 100 bulk is stupid silly especially on a breaker /...

I'll forever miss mindlessly clicking Tera Fire Raging Fury under the Sun and eating a Therian Landorus Earth Power anyways before killing it

125 Speed is still really good too, outspeeding the entire unboosted meta save for Dragapult (cringe) and Zamazenta, so you're not left wanting to find opportunities by threatening foes

on the topic of this I want you guys to know Iron Valiant's physical bulk is just barely better than that of Roaring Moon Val doesn't warrant a suspect but this is a fact that's haunted me for two years and I loathe it with all my being

don't quite think Tusk needs Ice Spinner on Sun, as a lot of Sun's heavy hitters just smack Gliscor and even Lando-T too hard (Raging Bolt, Walking Wake, Roaring Moon, etc.), hence why I dropped Spinner for Taunt (and also Taunt just denies Toxic Scor fuck you Toxic Scor)

Great Tusk @ Eject Pack Ability: Protosynthesis Tera Type: Fire EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Jolly Nature Headlong Rush Rapid Spin Taunt Temper Flare need to ask chat if I'm cooking w this or I burned down the kitchen, saw some talk about Taunt earlier in the thread and I'm wondering if Ice...

guys what does Reuniclus do why is it on the first opposing team

remind me again who’s the 600 BST chill guy?

I've been using Hisuian Samurott a lot in Monotype and my respect for it has grown specifically any set that doesn't utilize the Focus Sash being able to setup hazards while attacking feels much more rewarding when I actually have to earn the ability to get in safely (poor bulk, middling Speed...

I don't talk here often but I think U-Turn itself is lame Volt Switch and Flip Turn are fine bc they have their distribution sorely limited but genuinely why does everyone under sun get U-Turn U-Turn's never leaving us (unlike the opposing Meowscarada) but I wanted to get that off my chest

big stall in shambles, volcarona drops to zu and is replaced by camerupt in ou

you've piqued my curiosity in what world do we live in where Altaria has (or had) a stronger niche on Stall than Garganacal?

believe it or not Close Combat actually hits Great Tusk harder I do appreciate the answer a lot though, I just found the huge Fighting STAB hitting the Ice weak target harder than the Ice move to be pretty goofy

Gen question, why doesn't anyone ever talk about running Close Combats on Iron Hands? I can understand why not Supercell Slam, but Close Combat's base power coming off of an Attack stat that large slams any Ground Types not named Gliscor and Therian Landorus, and Ice Punch is just strong enough...

damn here I am forgetting the stupid vgc mushroom exists, tragic :psysad:
