That looks like a solid set-up sweeper, but how about this: Bibarel (Omanyte) @ White Herb Ability: Simple EVs: 252 HP / 252 Spa / 4 Speed Modest Nature - Shell Smash - Surf - Ice Beam - Earth Power / Ancient Power / Thunderbolt Going from 35 / 40 / 100 / 90 / 55 / 35 -> 55 / 80 / 120 / 110 /...

Oops, that is supposed to be Wartortle into Clefable, not Quagsire into Clefable. I was caught up a bit on Quagsire for whatever reason.

Shh no I don't. Stealth Rocks would probably fit best on to Wartortle, as Clefable gets it. It would have to choose between Moonlight, Rocks, Calm Mind, and Aromatherapy, however.

I was bored in class and made a super-stall team: Chansey (Tangela) @ Leftovers Ability: Natural Cure EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD Calm Nature - Giga Drain - Soft-Boiled - Toxic - Knock Off 65 / 55 / 115 / 100 / 40 / 60 -> 215 / 55 / 115 / 120 / 80 / 80 (Total: 665) 215 / 115 / 80 bulk is...

Well, some people can't read, and I am one of those people.

Rampardos doesn't though, so Aggron can't use it. The ability also has to be the same as the leader. Anyways, I've found Kecleon to be a good lead (A, maybe even S rank). It has a huge movepool on the physical and special side of things, has recover, but lacks good boosting. It also has fake...

Idk if we can say anything about how the metagame will evolve without testing; theorymoning can only take you so far. I would much rather play a restrictive metagame anyways, as it forces creativity. Say for example you have Swoobat as your leader; you could have a great core with something like...

Metagamiate

Nooo. In all actuality, I'm glad for this ban. It will likely increase the viability of previously unseen Pokemon, specifically Ghost and Psychic types, such as Honedge, and new threats such as Frillish, Pumkaboo, and Unown may have an easier time. Also Scraggy returns and is better now...

Replay or whatevs against Adrian Marin. Random sun team, seems to be pretty good with 3 viable setters in this Meta (Rain has 1). http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/pandora-350cup-890742

Now that I have time, here are some more complete thoughts. First off, if anything needs a quickban, it is most certainly Pawniard. I haven't found a single thing (though I need to look into some stuff) that isn't 2HKOed by either Sucker Punch or Iron Head. Scraggy is your best option. But...

Yeah, screw Pawniard. xJownage was killing me with it, has very few checks and so far I can't figure out a counter. I have a few checks, but I'll keep those to myself. Anyways, hyping Mankey. With a Choice Band and defiant, it partners great with anything that sets hazards. Close Combat...

I know I'm double posting but w/e. Skrelp deserves mentioning. Resisting all but Rock Slide from Darumaka, Skrelp is a full counter to Darumaka, provided Sun is not up (If running Skrelp, btw, I'd recommend a Rain Team. Hell rain if you're not running Darumaka cause you're so hipster like me)...

Let's see... Koffing looks like a good physical wall. One of the best maybe, with Will-o-Wisp and Pain Split. It has decent attacking options; Fire Blast / Flamethrower, Thunderbolt, Sludge Bomb. 252 Atk Hustle Darumaka Flare Blitz vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Koffing in Sun: 253-298 (69.5 - 81.8%) --...

It's not going to do anything special on the physical side, but a special set benefits a ton from it. But I digress. This discussion is cluttering the thread.

You could say the same thing about Scizor, but Scizor doesn't have great priority off of both of its attacking stats (neither of which is lacking and both of which have a +2 boosting move. Then it has all the other moves that make it viable; Bone Rush, Hidden Power, a really strong phazing move...

Ok, I've removed the illegality on Dragalge and removed Rock Head on Tyrantrum. Y'all make it sound like it's going Uber if/when its hidden ability is released (it IS Rock Head if you didn't know) I'll post the updated stuff here. Dragalge Stats: +15 HP Movepool: +Slack Off QC Approved: Peef...

Edited to give Slack Off. Not the best fit, but I can't see it being amazing in OU even with a solid recovery move (would be amazing in RU/UU though). Needs a second QC Adrian Marin Peef Rimgar Also gets Slack Off Via Slowpoke line. This means Toxic Spikes + Slack Off is illegal. Also...

In all seriousness, I'd love to see what other people have in mind about this meta. I have a team in mind and am down to play whenever.

Reserving Dragalge because it's OP. +15 HP Movepool: +Slack Off, +Clear Smog Also, can we please release its HA. It needs some OU love. And I know we're not supposed to add more moves, but flavourwise, Dragalge needs the 3 move spit-up combo. Monte Cristo Completely off topic: did you know...
