The thing is that most things don't have Destiny Bond, and it definately needs to be considered. The fact of the matter is that any check that is slower than Houndoom and doesn't carry priority, has to face the very real chance that the best it will be able to do is trade with it. For M-Gengar...

Gonna leave my Golurk stuff here. Golurk #623 Typing: Ghost/Ground Abilities: No Guard / Iron Fist / Klutz Base stats: 89 / 124 / 80 / 55 / 80 / 55 BST: 483 Pros: -3 Immunities allows him to switch in on many called attacks for free, notably Volt Switch and Fake Out -Typing gives him...

To the first part: It's defensive stats are moot, because they're low enough that he's just using Focus Sash as his 'defensive stats'. The Stealth Rock weakness isn't even really valid either, because once again, he revolves on that Focus Sash, and even if he had 4x resistance to Rock, it'd...

The 4x weakness to U-turn will always be a huge thorn in Celebi's side, a long with Darmanitan. 252+ Atk Sheer Force Darmanitan Flare Blitz vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Celebi: 426-504 (105.4 - 124.7%) -- guaranteed OHKO 252+ Atk Darmanitan U-turn vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Celebi: 256-304 (63.3 - 75.2%)...

If they don't swap out the sleeper, you can put the next thing to sleep once you murder it. If they do, you get a free Hurricane on their next mon anyhow.

Vivillon is a beast. Compound Eyes + Sleep Powder is a 97.5% sleep chance, which gives her a free turn to Quiver Dance most of the time. Once you've Quiver Danced, you've got Hurricane, with a 91% hit chance, and Bug Buzz/Energy Ball for coverage. The huge advantage she has over Butterfree...

With the ban of Crawdaunt, Houndoom, and Hydreigon, most of the big Dark users are now out of UU, which in my experience has made Cresselia incredibly difficult to deal with. With the CM/Moonlight or Sub/CM sets, and a full physically defensive spread, nothing can force her out really...

I really feel we should be retesting mons in groups, because several of them provide checks for the others. Like, for example, Diggersby might end up being a good check for Thundurus-T, and Crawdaunt provides a check for Diggersby, and Thundurus-T provides a counter for Crawdaunt. (not saying...

He can't learn Knock Off in Non-Pokebank OU. I'd use it if I could. An important change in mine is using Poison Jab the cover the fairy weakness, and using SDef EVs instead of HP, as he gets a lot more SBulk from the SDef investment.

Conkeldurr is really really fucking strong with an Assault Vest. Conkeldurr @ Assault Vest Ability: Guts EVs: 252 Atk / 252 SDef / 4 Spd Adamant Nature - Drain Punch - Mach Punch - Payback - Poison Jab This Conkeldurr is a monster in pre-Pokebank OU. So many things are lured into it, many...

This is Non-Pokebank, so there is no Keldeo to deal with. There frankly just aren't many strong hitting Water types to deal with either. Azumarill, Greninja, Gyrados, Starmie, and Cloyster are pretty much the only water types that ever show up, and they're handled by various parts of my team...

This is a sand team that I've been running to pretty good effect. Currently in the mid-high 1800s in OU (beta). While only half of the Pokemon in the team benefit from Sand Storm, none of them are damaged by it, giving me a free -Leftovers on all of my opponents, and shutting down most Focus...

Been playing a lot with Megadactyl, and he's actually not that terrible. The number of Pokemon he can outspeed and OHKO is actually pretty expansive, and with Sand Storm his special bulk is good enough to take anything but an Ice attack or a STAB Hydro Pump. He's definately not an all star...

With XP Share turned on: Lapras (No Item) gets 5 Spe EVs Oddish (No Item) gets 5 Spe EVs Abra (Macho Brace) gets 10 Spe EVs Hypothetical Aron (Power Lens) gets 20 SpA EVs and 5 Spe EVs Hypothetical Mew (No item, FAINTED) gets 0 EVs. With XP share on it's irrelevant who actually did the fighting.

http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/attack-pair-analysis.3490312/ Short answer, no. The only would be Normal/Ghost, which doesn't exist.

If you had a WishPass Blissey or Sylveon leading, you could give MegaAggron a turn to use Iron Defense, and you'd lure out physical attackers. At +2 252 HP/252 Def+ MegaAggron's bulk becomes hilarious. +2 252 Atk Garchomp Earthquake is a guarenteed 4HKO.

I'm not a super high level player, so I'm not the best source of information, but yeah if you are not using Aggron as your lead, you could probably do better with a bigger investment in Defense (such as Impish) because you'll know what he's getting himself into. Since he leads for me, he...

Great chart, has helped me a lot. For people using this method, I've found that Venasaur is probably the best pokemon to be the personal trainer for your younglings. He learns Petal Blizzard, a 90 BP all-attack, and Sweet Scent. Eh, the XP is nice. If you use level 25 Hordes in the later...

Been running this Mega Aggron build and been enjoying it a lot as my lead, since Stealth Rock is not available on Aggron yet. Edit: Oh apparently you can with Tyrantum. Aggron @ Aggronite Careful 252 HP/252 SpD/4 Att - Heavy Slam / Iron Head - Earthquake / Stealth Rock - Thunder Wave / Stealth...

Has anyone been able to sign on to Pokemon GL since the launch of XY? It seems like there is 100% uptime on maintenance. I've checked 2-3 times a day, every day, for the last 6 days.
