Fair enough, his stats are rather middling without those superpowers and there's no telling if sub+boosting will be popular enough to really make it worth trying. Especially since there's an entire class of moves that also bypass subs now. Like Boomburst. Speaking of Boomburst, would a specs...

I've always rather liked Spiritomb, and although he gained a weakness in this generation I think the ability to Sucker Punch and Pursuit through an opponent's Substitute makes up for it. The mind games will be delicious. Crobat gets Hypnosis through breeding, so he'd be one of three Pokemon who...

I'm liking Delphox so far. Cool concept for a pokemon, with a very interesting movepool and set of tricks. Not sure what I think about Mystical Fire. I'm currently trying to use it as a way to screw over potential switch-ins, but most of the pokemon switching in on Delphox seem to be physical...

Has Heatran and his Magma Storm been mentioned yet? I used to use a Heatran with that and Metal Sound to take out Blisseys without much trouble.

Don't forget Spiritomb, due to infiltrator hitting through subs now. Spiritomb also has sucker punch, pursuit, shadow sneak, and hypnosis to use with infiltrator.

Exploud got updated special defense, not updated special attack. However, Boomburst does hit through subs which is nifty and Exploud does get STAB on it which is absurd. Seriously, that attack is insane. 140 BP, 100% accuracy, special attack and it even hits all pokemon on the field like EQ...

I wonder if it's possible to push SpD so high that recovery becomes outright unnecessary? Come December, I'm sticking this on a Regice just for funsies. More seriously, Goodra is about to become one of my favorite pokemon for assault vest. Thanks for testing out how it works, you guys.

Something I was thinking about regarding this thing. With infiltrator's new sub-bypassing mechanic, Malamar gains the ability to use hypnosis or toxic through an opponent's substitute, and also use topsy-turvy through a sub if it couldn't before. It doesn't seem like there'd be any safe way to...

Crap *I'm sorry, my post somehow got scrambled. Editing it may take a while, as my computer is slower than a lobotomized slug.

Intro This is a team I've been tinkering around with for nearly a year. I've been running it through shoddy, swapping moves here, moving an EV there, etc. I'm pretty much at the end of my innovative juices, so I figured now's the time to get some outside help. Some quick notes before I get...
