Tried to schedule with my opponent during the week. They didn't reply for days then asked to play Saturday. I was available all day Saturday and wrote on their wall. They did not reply or try and play any games
Hi Builders,
Recently returned from a long hiatus and looking to get stuck into the game again, my teambuilding skills are a little (very) rusty and outdated so im pretty excited to see this thread again! Super hyped as well to see a viable tspikes setter in OU as its probably my favorite...
The problem i've got with doublade is that you are essentially using 2 eviolite mons on the same team both of which are relatively pursuit weak. I feel like doubling up on weaknesses makes the things it can wall to be more of a negative than positive.
There is also the matter of redundancy, out...
I feel like, a lot of people either dont appreciate or underestimate a lot of what makes dragalge so strong. They just see his low speed + decent SPA + ability and just slap a specs on and 248 hp and expect him to do work every match.
While that is certainly something that can do work here is...
Thats interesting, did something change recently? Because i tried to make this set a long time ago and it said that it was invalid (i think heal bell + body slam) so thats pretty qt if its been changed
Dont really agree with a blanket ban of regenerator but maybe make it max 1 per team would be a workable solution, its not hard to wear down a single regen user its only when they start to switch around 3-4 of them it becomes silly
I too feel that this is a very stall-y meta, currently at #2 and #3 and its kind of disgusting how good regenerator is combined with how easy magic-bounce is to fit onto your teams. But i also feel that people are overlooking traditional stall-breakers in favour of things with shiny new...
So im having quite a lot of fun in this meta game, currently at #4 and so far i've had no real problems with gale wings / contrary / manaphys or whatever. The real issue im having currently is dealing with cobalion/lucario with adaptability.
These guys hit ridiculously hard with their stabs...
i face you and this team several times over a few months and here are the holes i found when beating it:
a) You have no hazard setters or removers, I would suggest SD/lum Garchomp or if you want to be 'innovative' try this:
Garchomp @ Life Orb
Ability: Rough Skin
EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe...
