i know triage has historically been buggy, but regardless im curious if "workarounds" are included in the priority ban (ie no holding move that causes healing with the ability triage). not that comfeys broken or anything anyways lol, but it just isnt addressed or particularly clear at the moment...

surprised to see zero mention of acid armor reuniclus yet (actually very little mention or use of most psychics so far, which is probably helping my experience with it), very little has changed for it this gen that ive encountered aside from like... koko making grasses that sleep it bad and a...

Staraptor C+ -> C or lower a bit irrelevant but this has been bugging me for a while. this bird has been middling between c+ and b- for a long time now and i just... gotta wonder. scarf is its only actually viable set (band is really bad it doesnt do anything for a team any wallbreaker couldnt...

zap cannon is more than annoying less than broken i guess, but its limited distribution really doesnt phase me much (mews kinda the only problem user imho, but everything mew can do in this meta is a headache). though, dynamic punch definitely needs some inspection, 100bp confusion on some of...

ive been playing for like, an hour, and im already 8 n 0 with a very slightly modified version of bludz's medicham team please make sure your answer to mons like bp mega medi or lop isnt praying (the really gimmicky and i dont think ban-worthy) whimsicott can stall them out, most standard ou...

Bronzong @ Cherish Ball Ability: Levitate EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 SpD Sassy Nature - Gyro Ball - Earthquake / Rock Slide - Stealth Rock / Trick Room - Toxic / Explosion / niche hp coverage / whatever you all know what bronzong does bronzong has historically been a bad but annoying tank, now...

rowap berry might be, uh, interesting on something like blissey or ferrothorn, its essentially a special rocky helmet. i cant see much else thatd want to use it, but itd certainly make ferrothorn in particular just a headache to see at team preview on a hazard stacking team lol

Serperior @ Ampharosite Ability: Contrary EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Modest / Timid Nature - Leaf Storm - Giga Drain / Energy Ball - Toxic / Dragon Pulse / whatever - Taunt interesting stallbreaker? not good, but interesting at least. im sure its pretty obvious how to use this, get a free...

whats a good benchmark speed for sd diggersby to hit these days? i was thinking 211-212 creeps most defensive heatran (and offensive dont bug my team much) and other things it wants to break but i didnt want to bet on that too much and get plume burned every time :'[

you dont really want to be locked into outrage to begin with when head smash is a 2hko on almost all the same things outrage is, barring bulky ground types not named lando-t or gliscor also the only shot that outrage has a chance to ohko gastrodon with is adamant 252 with life orb at +1 after...

dunno if anyone has mentioned this yet, but your best bet for coverage is probably head smash / earthquake / fire fang, not head smash / earthquake / ice fang or head smash / earthquake / outrage. almost anything ice fang bops is a 2hko that head smash gets anyway, and fire fang is good for...

imo gatrzone or gatrtelle for hp fire could be a tasty core, so you could try something silly like iron tail over _fighting move x_ to bop azu's dreams of walling you, or like sleep talk or ice punch i guess. edit for calcs because convincing +1 252 Atk Life Orb Sheer Force Feraligatr Iron...

I mostly lurk around the forums but I hashed together a team I kinda sorta like so I figured I should try to post some sort of content. Honestly, I've been super biased against XY RU for a while cause stall or Meloetta or something made me mad. So when ORAS rolled around and I got bored of OU I...

huh, forgot about that tutor. that means mega medicham has priority too and gengar gets sucker punch come to think of it, keldeo gets aqua jet so maybe priority isnt too far gone

sheer force rampardos is just stupidly strong, still slow and frail though also, priority is pretty much garbage other than talonflame and lucario (lol) unless im missing a meaningful special attacker
