Magearna, in my opinion, should be first on the suspect list than Spectrier. Now without simply saying “Just use Normal or Dark types lol”, here are a few reasons why I say this. 1. It’s survivability for what it can do It’s no secret that Steel/Fairy is one of the best typings in the game...

Despite being a great check to Urshifu, Clefable definitely got buffed. With only 1 user of Unseen Fist left, being the vastily inferior Urshifu-R, Clefable’s Wishpass is much better. But more importantly, the best Wishpasser being more viable means more than just Clefable will rise in...

With Urshifu-S being banned, 2 types I can see rising are Normal and Dark. Being weak to Fighting, both Dark and Normal obviously benefit for one of the best Fighting wallbreakers in the tier. Likewise Rock, Steel, Ice Psychic, and Ghosts types benefit for the same reasons. Other Pokemon...

:Tapu Bulu: A+ -> A Discount Rillaboom really appreciates being in a tier where its main competition is absent. That is all well and good, and being essentially an OU Pokemon in UU is always a good thing for your viability. However I think when hype up Tapu Bulu, they forget a few things that...

Nice. I’ll be stealing receiving your wonder christmas gifts for my own teams. Speaking of which, what would you say is the most viable Hail team? Ever if Hail isn’t too viable, how would you make a Hail team viable in OU.

Not really. Firstly, Teleport is an easy guaranteed way to bring in a solid breaker like Ushifu without the commitment of regularly switching or having a faster Pivot. That’s easy the most broken component. Slowbro/king tanks a hit/status for Urshifu, brings it in, then also heals itself while a...

Wow. 2020 has been a pretty bad year, but surely December can’t get any wors... Tree Satan (Exeggutor-Alola) @ Leppa Berry Ability: Harvest Shiny: Yes EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Timid Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Block - Eerie Spell - Protect/Encore - Synthesis/Encore Devil Tree...

Eeh. I really don’t see why you would use Appletun over Ferrothorn as a tanky Grass type. All it has over Ferrothorn is recover, and it doesn’t do that much besides throw out weak moves, none of which can effectively so anything to Steel types or common regenerator Pokemon. You also have far...

Why not Sword Dance until they attack, bringing you to low health? Considering that this strategy already has a bunch of holes in it with Priority, Rocky Helmet, Sand, Stealth Rock, and sometimes a multi-hit move. This strategy would only really work against non-Sand HO, since slight residual...

Hot Take: Pivot moves are an awful concept. Hypothetically speaking, if there existed a Super TASbot, a super version of a Tool Assisted Superplayer bot that knows the future so it could play multiplayer games perfectly, moves like U-Turn and Teleport give you psuedo versions of that for humans...

You should also replace Krookodile and Glastrier too. Their role for a team like this is only to increase the power of Stored Power Trip, which is just over kill in a meta where Unaware is banned. Here is what I did Sylveon provides much needed coverage for Spectrier, Tapu Lele prevents...

Since technically Soul-Heart and Grim Neigh have different effects (Former raises your Special Attack by 1 stage after any Pokemon faints by any method, while the latter only does so if the fainting occurred due to direct damage from the user), will Pokemon just get +2 for each kill?

Yeah, and now that I think about it, having 248 Timid speed would be better, as it would outspeed Modest Regieleki after Shift Gear.

I would actually recommend this stat spread for Magearna EVs: 4 HP / 24 Def / 244 SpA / 236 Spe The 4 HP and 24 Def guarantees Magearna lives 1 Close Combat from Banded Jolly Urshifu regularly, 2 Wicked Blows 100% of the time, and 2 Close Combats behind Reflect. 252 Atk Choice Band Urshifu...

I mean how exactly do you get these buffs and debuffs? The wording isn’t really clear.

Could you explain a bit more on this idea?

You know, I'm actually surprised that the Dauntless Shield glitch on the Calculator has yet to be fixed. I don't blame the coders since no one cares about Zamazenta (and I'll be honest, I didn't notice it either). But anyway, the people have spoken and many players would like to see Zamazenta-C...

Really? What a really weird move Body Press is. I thought that it only displays that on Showdown like how Choice Band displays Atk stats like they are at +1, where the scenario of if mattering wasn’t significant enough to change a few lines of code.

Special Reunion In the transition from Pokemon RGBY to GSC, the split between the Special stat into the Special Attack and Special Defense was made to balance Pokemon such as Alakazam who had its Special incredibly high. For Kanto Pokemon, they either had identical SpA/SpD (such as Dragonite)...
