With the abundance of Z-items and mega stones, is using a trick/choice item (and to a much lesser extent knock off) strategy a losing proposal? I used to have a bit of success with trick scarf Rotom, but I see lots of opponents using Z crystals on unexpected Pokemon and it makes me leery of...

Liking your team a lot. How's toxic Aegislash working out for you? I used to have a lot of success with an autotomize weakness policy set, but I feel like that wouldn't work as well in this generation. Has Conkuldurr been doing well also? Something that slow is bound to have trouble without...

Sorry on my phone but the two things that stuck out to me were psyshock over psychic on Gardevior and rock tomb over rock slide on Garchomp.

I guess we will have to see, but I think mega Steelix will get about as much use as Mega Aggron got in XY (i.e not very much). Mega Slowbro intrigues me. I want to try a CroBro set, but I have a feeling that taunt and prankster Pokemon are going to be very common, so I'd like the meta game to...

Has anyone been playing around with the new megas on the simulator? The thing that scares me the most is not Mega Salamence, but Mega Metagross. Tough claws boosted attacks coming off a 145 attack, 110 speed, has great typing and bulk, and access to priority? Plus my BP Espeon fails to 2HKO it...

I think Beedrill's main problem is that flying type attacks are still going to be hugely popular with Mega Salamence and Mega Pidgeot to a far lesser extent. Talonflame isn't going anywhere either. I'm glad he got a mega, but unless you're using him for late game clean up you are going to need a...

I like running extrasensory on Greninja to hit mega venusaur.

With thw whole KB only ORAS league I guess it's time to rebreed my entire team. Hopefully the non banned legendaries will be easy to soft reset for... I'm not holding my breath though.

I wholeheartedly agree. While he's very popular, his paper thin defense and lack of OHKO power on key threats makes him B+ at best. Predictable as well running a water type move, dark pulse, ice beam, extrasensory/grass knot/HP fire/u turn.

thanks for explaining the EVs. It was driving me mad not knowing why they use the EVs the way they did.

I like your landorus. Have you tried using knock off on it over superpower? I like mega pinsir, but the thing that really holds me back from using him more is his frailness. Seems like anything that I can't ohko will ko me im return. Also he's a status magnet. I've never liked uturn on...

once again, on my phone so excuse the lack of formatting. I like rotom h over rotom w. The burn and twave immunity it great. Possibly swap tbolt for pain split? I Will comment on the rest later, on my way out now!

mega gengar is best used in this instance as a perish song trapper. As you are using azumarill as your sweeper I would just use Gengar as an easy means to remove anything that threatens to stop your sweep. Max speed with sub, perish song, protect, and shadow ball/destiny bond/disable would be my...

I agree that when you are new taking someone else's spreads is probably a good idea, but as you play, learn what hurts and what helps and tailor your spreads to your playstyle.

It's just weird to me to blindly copy EV spreads without knowing what they were designed for. Like I know I run enough speed on my Uxie to outspeed Jolly Tyranitar, so I know what I can and can't outrun. I run just enough defense to not get KOed by fake out/return by mega Kangaskhan. THat...

Trying to type this on my phone while on vacation so please ignore the formatting and typos. Your Gengar set looks good, that's a pretty common set. Why are you running impish over an attack boosting nature on Azumarill? Also what is that defensive EV spread meant to counter? Your Porygon2 has a...

Well I use a Uxie lead. In this example: 252 Atk Parental Bond Mega Kangaskhan Fake Out vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Uxie: 76-91 (21.4 - 25.7%) -- 1.5% chance to 4HKO 252 Atk Parental Bond Mega Kangaskhan Return vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Uxie: 195-231 (55 - 65.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO 252 Atk Parental Bond Mega...

High 1700, low 1800 and it's the exact opposite. Every trainer I run into goes with Fake out --> Double edge and nets themselves an easy kill

Anyone else noticing a shift of Kangaskhan using double edge over return now?
