RIP. Seems really weird that nobody caught that... Oh well, no biggie :) OP should be changed, however. Thoughts on alternatives? EQ still hits TTar, Tran, Bisharp etc. It gets Brick Break (lol), or HP Bug (lol again)?

Am I missing something? Because when I try to put HP Fight on Necrozma, it says that it is illegal. Necrozma is a legendary and therefore "must have 3 perfect IV's". HP Fighting requires that, at most, only two IV's can be perfect... I feel like the solution is either very obvious and I'll be...

With Mega Venu running around, would. Flynium-Z Azumarill with Bounce be worthwhile? Maybe once the meta slows down, it could see some use to break defensive cores.

Is it shiny? Iirc, it doesn't let you use the Shiny Tapu's. It should be allowed though.

"What is Zygarde 100% gonna do with those stats." "This thing was supposed to be the destroyer of universes!" "It only got an HP buff? I thought it would get more." ... xD This things really is super good, I can't think of really any ways of reliably beating it.

I was shocked when LO Perhomosa did 60%-ish with Ice Beam...

Also, on the Standard set, running 100 Speed EV's lets you outspeed Mega Manectric after a Shell Smash in Shields Up form, so that you aren't a complete sitting duck above 50% HP. The rest can be dumped into attack, and any extra into HP (if running Stone Edge > Power Gem) to survive a couple...

I think that Aegi will dictate the Metagame in the same way that it did on release. It's the most centralizing 'Mon right now, and with it in the Tier, I don't think we can get a fair judgment on everything else. (Also, remember what happened when people finally started to get a decent hold of...

It says Showdown. Also, looking at the new teambuilding it appears as thought everything will be available (including Aegislash and Genesect now, fml).

That is actually quite relevant (despite Refresh not being useful on a 'Mon that basically cannot be statused), because it is essentially like ChestoRest. Some notable differences (aside from one time use, but Chesto is only one time as well) are: • Using up your only Z-Move • Z-Items cannot be...

Do we know whether it will be pre-bank, or "post-bank"? (i.e basically all 'Mons available) And on a somewhat related side-note, will the "post-bank" format be available to play on Showdown?

In general, a positive nature will benefit the higher stat more, because it is a 10% increase. So the higher your stat, the more the nature will benefit said stat. That's the mathematical way of thinking of it, but if you need to survive certain hits, outspeed certain things, or nab certain...

That's a fair point that I agree hasn't been brought up. But it's like any set-up sweeper, you would bring in in against things that wouldn't be able to OHKO it. One thing I foresee happening, if activate Shields Down becomes too unreliable, is possibly running a berry that rescues SE damage...

Fair enough, my mistake XD Sorry. But I think it was still a relevant point to bring up, especially given the surprising number of people not joking about it xD Sorry mate

It would be like running Fire Punch over Flare Blitz of Zard-X. Might be worth it to you, but I'm pretty sure 99 times out of 100 you prefer the power.

Aqua Ring, as a move, is just hot trash. Suppose you come in on something you wall (ie. Heatran). Best case scenario, you A-Ring as he Stealth Rocks maybe(if he didn't already on the turn you switched in)? So that's +1/16. Then he switches into something that will force you out, most likely, so...

100% agree, even Toxic isn't mandatory if something else is needed, which is nice.
