I'm sitting at 25W-6L right now, and this Drifblim set has single-handedly gotten me at least half of my wins so far. This thing is illegally bulky, and after Unburden and 1-2 Calm Minds it can easily wipe out entire teams, even with just Air Slash. This EV spread allows Drifblim (with Unburden...

I've been trying a lot of different sets on a lot of different Pokémon, but by far the MVP of all of my teams has been Bellibolt: Bellibolt @ Assault Vest Ability: Electromorphosis Tera Type: Electric EVs: 252 HP / 252 SpA / 4 Spe Modest Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Parabolic Charge -...

Main thing is, it's outclassed by Swirlix. Swirlix has Unburden. My set: Swirlix (F) @ Sitrus Berry Ability: Unburden EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe Adamant Nature - Play Rough - Return - Thief - Belly Drum Just have to be careful not to use Thief when you still want to keep your Unburden...

I feel you should mention the buff to Overcoat somewhere, as the immunity to Spore and Sleep Powder provides Mandibuzz even more switch-in opportunities and allows it to wall even more Pokémon which could normally just put defensive Pokémon to sleep. Since Overcoat has never been a particularly...

One Pokémon I haven't seen many people talking about is Avalugg, the Coffee Table Pokémon. Bearing an Ice typing is usually detrimental on a defensive Pokémon, but Avalugg's mammoth defenses allow it to shrug off even super effective hits. Some calculations: Defensive: 252+ Atk Choice Band...

Intimidate To be honest, I really don't care as long as it's not Unburden. Sweeping for days after a setup is less useful than being able to set up in the first place, IMO, and that's why I picked Intimidate. Motor Drive would be awesome, too, for setup chances and speed boosts, but Intimidate...

Time to share the trolling with everyone. Cottonee (M) @ Focus Sash Trait: Prankster Level: 1 EVs: 252 Spd / 252 Def / 4 HP Timid Nature - Leech Seed - Substitute - Encore - Protect Cottonee uses Leech Seed on the first turn (priority), then Substitute over and over for GG. Alternatively...

So like, uh...7 PM Eastern time, I guess? Sure, that sounds good. I'll try to be there. Unless of course you meant last week. Which I assume you did. In which case, lolsmogonwasdown.

I've been testing some of the unranked Pokémon. Wynaut, so far, has been fairly useful; he can Encore a setup move so I can setup Dragon Dance Fraxure or some other sweeper or he can counter attacks and kill shit off. Pretty good. Dunno where to place him yet though. As for Sandshrew, B or C...

Amazingly, one Pokémon just saved me from a drastic loss at the hands of Harbinger. Surprisingly, that Pokémon didn't use any moves she can't normally learn. Furthermore, she swept the last 4 Pokémon he had. Without further ado, I present you perfect wall in a tier filled with Water Spouts, Tail...

I've been testing Yanma, too, and I agree with C-Rank. It has speed, two wonderful abilities, decent attack, and Hypnosis. Unfortunately, one hit kills it. Pretty much guaranteed. Which would be why I use a Focus Sash.

Steel/Ground has fairly good offensive coverage; with a Sandstorm setter, Sand Rush Excadrill is just as potent. But suddenly, Steel type dies to everything. If he doesn't OHKO, he gets OHKO'd. Unban. A better question is whether or not to unban Genesect, Dialga, other Uber Steel-types, etc.

Psyshock becomes horribly outclassed by Psystrike, too. Just in general, the previously-signature moves break many Pokemon. As for prevolutions, they should be able to pass moves to their final evolutions. It only makes sense.

I've been testing out some ideas on Joim's server (vs. myself) and I've come to a conclusion: Speed is pretty much all that matters. For example, if you outspeed your opponent, you steal their STAB from them while setting up your next move to finish them off with a coverage move. This makes...
