Most people don't use Chansey physically (and I mentioned that holistically it appears Marowak can be a problem to Sable stall). Chansey is unique in being one of the few good ZardY stops in the game (as well as stopping Volcanion, though not necessarily volcarona). Haven't used toxapex much and...

So to the trapper part, the team was actually designed thinking Duggy would be banned. In that time I was trying to figure out how I could counter heatran and not really considering Zygarde. ZardY as a staller actually isn't my idea (or even a gen7 idea). The concept was actually used with the...

If you're referring to the ZardY team, it's specifically not anything other than concept (as mentioned). edit: It's really not worth it. Have a nice day, AM.

So now that our angel has returned to us.... Let's talk about stall. Currently, I see two major archtypes of stall being used but I think three are viable. The two common ones are Venu, Sable stall. I think the third viable option is Zard-Y stall, not X. ZardY has the interesting proponent of...

We have no idea if they're being released. We can see all the megas outside Rayquaza and the primals used on the battle tree, so we've been under the assumption they may just be patched in at a later date. However, this is unconfirmed so we've been treating it as if they won't exist.

The heal set on CM if you want it uses normalium z refresh.

Reading is a skill which we invest many years into, dear psVoltage. I think it was quite clear I referred to genesect only from the standpoint of stall. Good user blarghfarghl's post was made to seem like Genesect himself is a wallbreaker, which unfortunately is a wronghood which cannot even be...

People and their fear of bugs... The reason Gene can't be compared to other wallbreakers is because Gene isn't a wallbreaker and sucks at wallbreaking. I say this from a stall perspective only: Gene isn't a threat. He's pretty annoying with U-turn shenanigans and all but that's about it...

Lemme take a moment to tell you about my Lord and Savior, Icium Z Tapu FIni. Tapu Fini @ Icium Z Ability: Misty Surge EVs: 248 HP / 252 Def / 8 Spe Bold Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Surf - Taunt - Nature's Madness - Haze This is Fini's adapted stall set I've been using basically since release...

Lando-I has existed in this meta just as long as Pheromosa, and we're really not concerned about his interactions in XY, and DEFINITELY not in Bw2. Why? Well for one, apparently Lando-I wasn't absurdly broken enough in XY to warrant a ban at all. At the time, Landorus was THE stupidest thing...

So a 'jump point' is basically part of an EV spread on wherever your positive nature is. For instance, a Jolly user has potential jump points in speed. Most of the time jump points are relevant in defense only because you always want to go faster and are more interested in speed tiers rather...

The thing that gets me is Landorus-i was undeniably worse in this meta than he was in ORAS when he got a full suspect. XY's quick bans were Mega Gengar, Mega Blaziken, Mega Khangaskhan and Deoxys Normal. Blanket, undeniably broken pokemon. But even then, there were discussion threads for MKhan...

Medicham was never really the big issue for stall. Sable, doublade, cress, mew are the last gen counter, Slowbro should be decent check. I don't think we gained anything for it. Fini comes close and avoids 2hko but that's about it. Gard is moreso a problem but again you have Celesteela this...

The implications for the meta is pretty heavy. Specifically, Stall now isn't thinking about this. Two sheer-power users in OU remain that can smash stall. Hoopa-U who the council has instilled in me no confidence it'll be here when I wake up and Manaphy, who is set dependent on it. Lele is close...

With Lando-I being banned, I guess I have no use for Cresselia. RIP really, thought it'd at least get a suspect test. Jirachi @ Leftovers Ability: Serene Grace EVs: 252 HP / 224 SpD / 32 Spe Careful Nature - Stealth Rock - Iron Head - Wish - Protect This is Cresselia's...

Alright so it's been like forever since the Dreadnoughts, literally forever, not like three years or so. This generation's brought a lot of changes and insecurities but my love for stall is more eternal than my love for a wife I'll never have. Alright normally this is where people...

Jet Zygarde retains his form shift for the rest of the match once it's hit.

Not impressed. His team should've lost to yours far earlier barring some misplays (you needed to go Zapdos-> heatran far earlier on his Ditto PP stall for sable) and crit (donphan killing MSable doesn't happen otherwise). His sable lacking knock off should've given your heatran essentially free...

So after choosing the move in teambuilder, it automatically adjusts IVs in the spread section. You can manually adjust them back and it will retain the HP type you selected. I tested this today with Mega Venusaur, it does work. Edit astroshagger Soul Dew is better on Latias if she's going the...

Not that it's actually relevant at all to anything, but the score auto-adjusted the time Aegi was in tier. Look at raw usage, it's something like 30k usage under Tapu Koko. It was just used 30% of the time while here.
