Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Aeroblast Tornadus. Not sure if Tornadus-T's placement makes this invalid, but it gives Tornadus some badly needed consistency. If Entei gets Sacred Fire and moves up in viability as a result, then Tornadus should get Lugia's signature move as well.
Trace Metagross - A niche check to Pokemon like Heatran, Mega Mawile and Azumarill.
No Guard Toxicroak - A mixed attacker with unorthodox STAB combination.
Technician Cloyster - A better idea than Water Shuriken Cloyster imo.
The last few theorymons have been underwhelming imo. Heres a list of theorymons I've proposed:
Normal/Ghost Porygon-Z - I believe it still fits flavor wise since Porygon- Z is corrupted data that still functions. Like a zombie.
Parting Shot Krookodile - An alternative to Landorus-T. Trades away...
What about Technician Cloyster? It still hits physically with a stronger Ice Shard, but it can also make a special set with Frost Breath. It would be a little more unpredictable as a result.
No Guard Toxicroak. He has so many moves that could benefit from No Guard: Dynamic Punch, Gunk Shot, Focus Blast, Stone Edge and maybe even High Jump Kick.
We don't have many offensive poison types in OU.
This might be too similar to Parting Shot Scrafty, but I feel like giving Parting Shot to Krookodile might fully make it a serious alternative to Landorus-T.
I suggested Normal/Ghost Porygon-Z earlier since it was supposed to be a corrupted computer program that still functions, much like a zombie. I understand if it could be too powerful. If only it didn't get Adaptability...
You think Magic Guard Cryogonal has a chance? It's a spinner that is immune to entry hazards and can revenge kill Dragons and some water types with Ice STAB and Freeze Dry.
It can run Life Orb or Focus Sash like Alakazam.
Has anyone ever suggested Normal/Ghost Porygon-Z? It would finally give us a Ghost and Fighting combo resist that we need. It might get too ridiculous with those Adaptability Shadow Balls though.
