You probably shouldn't set up on a special attacker to begin with, because even with a focus sash, you will still be down to 1 hp, meaning it will die to any priority. If you want to set up with Cloyster, do so again something it forces out or a weaker physically offensive poke.

When looking at Salamence and it's competition, you'll notice that all dragons and ddancers have notable niches over Mence. Whether it's typing (MAlt), power (MzardX) or an easy time setting up (Dragonite). To find Mence's niche you must therefore look at what it can do that his rivals can't...

Belly drum floatzel

Even though I don't necessarily disagree with the drop of Conk, I do disagree with your reasoning. If played right, AV combined with Drain punch becomes pretty hard to wear down and it does not have 4MSS. It does not need all of thise moves to function, Conk still works without ice punch or...

Just like Mega Camerupt, mega Abomasnow is a horror to switch into, but too slow to actually be threatening. Even though it has good 90/105/105 bulk, it has a whopping 7 weaknesses. Aboma's best bet is probably trick room, but that is a gimmicky playstyle to begin with. With 131 offenses...

Psychic/psyshock, shadow ball, focus blast are pretty much mandatory. The fourth move is pretty free, but popular choices are thunder wave, encore, sub, dazzling gleam or even energy ball

I like the idea, as with Virizion's nice typing it could work. However the reason why crocune, crobro and what have you work is because they have a high defense stat while able to boost their mediocre special defense stat. Virizion only has 91/72 physical bulk, which, even fully invested is...

Yes I get that, I just forgot to mention it, that's why I already added that to my post, but that does not mean that when a metagame has adapted to deal with very strong pokemon aka the metas, if those are taken away, other pokemon will run rampant. I never called the meta boring, just that I...

I have just laddered to #1 in the no mega tier and I don't really like it. I have not experienced the BW metagame myself, but I heard that a lot of people are simply reusing those teams. I feel that without megas the standard pokes (land, ferro, rotom, tran, keldeo and what have you) are...

Well Pairing up with Mega Altaria will be difficult, but it is definitely a good set,

I'd put them in def, because if you put them in hp you'll die to two misses from hjk, while without it you'll survive 2 (atleast I'm pretty sure, might be the other way around, too lazy to look at atm) As for Adamant or jolly, I think adamant is better, as I can't think of anything really...

That was out in XY as well, so nothing changed apart from elemental punches which do not really help him

Probably Scald and Focus Miss Blast. Scald to potentially burn some physical attackers and that horrible accuracy move to (hopefully) kill steels who wall uou otherwhiles BTW I'm so happy this awesome pole finally got viable

Yeah, that's what I meant. Spamming wow's on MegaSableye is just a waste of turns

Doesn't flash fire only work once?
