Lol, i think the cold truth is people are too lazy to use stall. Stall is still effective, but takes more effort+ more time. One of the most used pokes is gliscor, and he can run stall (while being a stall breaker sometimes.) One of the most effective stall strategies right now is parafusion...

Hands down the best here, although i don't see the sense in running recover + rapid spin. LO starmie is meant to punch holes in teams fast, not taking 10 damage using a 20 base power move. BTW, 34 isn't divisible by 4, try 36 lol. And yes, this set is completely walled by pokemon like...

Wobbuffet's my favorite lead. period. it can encore any support move, and switch to an appropriate set up-er. Stealth rock? Haxorus sweep! (hence the name..) Toxic? Scizor can swords dance/agility. T-wave? Thundurus-T can calm mind. Substitute? Anything with roar. the possibilities are endless...

Yes, this is definitely the best one. Immune to two attacks, resists one @ 1/2 and the other 1/4. Although, i wouldn't run solarbeam and sunny day just to kill one threat; Something like Stealth rocks+HP grass is better.

It's not even set-up fodder, it gets clear smog :P I guess it's just not OU material because it doesn't have a strong presence with a certain function: yes, it counters top threats, but after that, it can't really do anything with its subpar attacking stats. I would argue that tyranitar is not...

When are the pinch berries released? Custap and Petaya in specific.

Just a little argument that chandelure isn't that broken: SubCM sets: can only do this against: choiced locked normal, fighting moves and special walls. That's pretty limited... Choice scarf sets: Limited to: Non boosted, non scarfed sweepers (>80 speed stat.) Okay, so chandelure can't revenge...

lol, at least skarm OHKOs croak and i calculated earthquake on gliscor. also all of your calculations were at +2. After following these calculations without +2 my point is still there: Gliscor can take a hit and OHKO with earthquake, skarmory can OHKO with brave bird, jolteon can take a...

No, Keldeo isn/t destroyed by sun, he doesnt take damage from the sun and fire moves don/t do extra damage. Gliscor is NEVER OHKO'd by Ice punch. It does 28.81% max. Also, without stealth rock like you mentioned, it has a less then 1/3 chance to 2HKO. Following that, Gliscor has base 95...

It can OHKO... even skarmory's brave bird can OHKO. Also, you'll probably get OHKO'd before you can get the +2 by even neutral jolteon, also gliscor can completely wall this set (even with ice punch. and OHKO with earthquake. Why you would ice punch on the switch i don't know, because ice is an...

No, definitely not. It's one of the best revenge scarfers: it can put an easy end to haxorus sweeps, and that's saying something. It simply isn't bad enough to be put along the rank of BL; it'd be like putting infernape and rotom-w to BL; i havent seen any but they are important in their roles...

Sorry, Bro. being a fellow wobbuffet user i was dissapointed to find that its sometimes 2HKO'd by starmie with stealth rock factored. you probably didnt factor the STAB and rain boost for starmie's hydro pump. However, without stealth rock its never 2HKO'd so its kind of a check. was goin to...

Virizion @ Life Orb Jolly 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe - Swords Dance - Close Combat - Leaf Blade - Stone Edge Very nice counter, can take ANY hit without dying, and can OHKO with Leaf blade

Exactly. Each pokemon has its own niche; mamoswine checks the powerful dragons and thundurus; breloom can put things to sleep and use a same power as scizor priority move; Genesect has nice coverage moves, good speed and nice mixed attacking stats. Scizor can't be "outclassed" because comparing...

One's a special attacker with Download. One's a physical revege/scouter with technician priority. Genesect cannot do "everything" scizor does; U-turn? How about Pursuit? And a *priority move*? You're forgetting what scizor is used for.

Nah, toxic makes em switch with protect. The reason why it isnt used is its killing power and no instant recovery.

this is pretty bad. 1/3 chance you'll do nothing, 1/3 chance you'll poison him [again and nothing] and 1/3 chance of doing damge. Therefore "really bad luck" is actually common; in in two turns the chances of hitting hydro pump twice is 1/9.

Technically shedinja is the best counter. Aside from it, eviolite chansey is probably the best bet to beating thundurus T. it completely walls it and can spread poison around with Toxic. On another note, mamoswine is a go big or go home counter; it resists thunder and Hp ice but will get OHKO'd...

Yes, most are used with Drizzle politoed to fire off boosted STAB hydro pumps.

Nobody runs life orb on Thundurus anyways. Also slowbro can come in on the predicted HP ice/spore if one on one; on the switch, -i would- why would anyone switch in amoonguss anyways. The best bet to check thundurus is sash mamoswine, can sash a 70% accuracy focus blast is immune to thunderbolt...
