Yes there are things that can counter it in overused, but if some UBERS came down to OU even for a test, they could just as easily be revenge killed... ok well not easily, but it could happen. For example, if we've got say, a rayquaza against an azumaril, if the rayquaza's locked into outrage...

I know everyone wants to discuss this more, do more damage calcs, discuss possible counters or checks, but it seems that everyone who's been up against a mega-kangaskhan and responds to this thread thinks the same way, and says this: can we just ban this thing already? so I ask politely to the...

I'm pretty sure that moves like protect, detect, spikey shield and king's shield alternate together. so if you used protect one turn and detect the next, detect only has a 50% chance of working.

What about a trapping set? Leftovers OR garchompite, adamant, 252 HP, 100Def, 152Atk or 252HP, 252Def, 4Atk sand tomb swords dance/hone claws Stone edge/ fire blast/ Outrage/dragon claw/ One of the only things that this set can do better than other pokemon is set up. Goodra can do a similar...

The thing that makes mega-kang so overpowered is it's incredible ability. (Yeah I know, "thanks for stating the obvious comes to mind"), but nothing is safe against this thing. Power up punch and sucker punch alone, destroy so much. PUP hit's twice allowing you to basically get off a swords...

I've been using this set in the battle maison and have been getting some decent results. Item:scizorite Nature: Adamant EV: 252 HP, 252Atk, 4 Def swords dance roost bullet punch pursuit It's been pretty good, my one concern is how slow megascizor is. it's just fast enough to out speed walls...

True it does have the option of runnign infestation ( and I think wrap, I could be wrong ) and it can learn stockpile to boost defenses, but it only has two resists, in normal and electric, and it's defenses are ok. Storm drain is now a good ability, but even then it'll be completely walled by...

So I've been looking into what actually gets trapping moves like whirlpool, infestation, sand tomb, wrap, bind etc. Here's a list of pokemon who (in my opinion) can viably run a trapping move for DOT Infestation: Shuckle (in lower tiers) Tentacruel Quagsire (but won't get too many kills)...

Here's the set that I've been running and have had a lot of fun with Lucario @ lucarionite timid/modest 252Speed, 252 Sp.Atk, 4 HP Nasty Plot Vacuum Wave Flash Cannon Dark pulse/shadow ball Though flash cannon doesn't have the raw power that close combat does it does have the nifty side...

Who would be a good partner for Talonflame? a few of the ones I'm thinking of that can switch into common rock, electric and water attacks are Breloom (against everything but slowbro) and ferrothorn

Is it possible to run a physical greninja set? It's attack is only a little bit lower than it's sp. attack, and it's got pretty good moves physically Greninja: Adamant Item: Choice band Water shuriken (signature move, can get through subs and can take out some faster pokemon without priority)...

Though their defenses line up pretty well and both have great defenses, their weaknesses line up. so something like keldeo, azumarill, rotom-W, breloom, and if we're going low enough feraligatr will wreck this team. any water/ grass type will go through this core effortlessly. Though with the...

When pokebank opens Heatran would probably be the better option. It both destroys fairies and demolishes and fire types not named blaziken. but even then salamence with intimidate could probably take out a blaziken pretty easily.Not only that but it could easily take and ice type attack thrown...

Pretty much the set that I've been seeing a lot is the bulky scizor set with scizorite and the choice band set. what about a utility scizor? or a baton pass scizor with scizorite: item: scizorite/leftovers swords dance agility baton pass u-turn/substitute EV spread: 252HP (I'm not good with...

If it went mega it can't be holding a choice scarf it was just a really fast pokemon. The only thing that I can actually see countering mega kangaskhan is a gengar which would outspeed an possibly hit it back with a spec. focus blast or a mega lucario with close combat or a skarmory. but even...

Dragonite does have less weaknesses than Hydreigon, HOWEVER hydreigon resists all of the types that Aegislash is weak to and vice versa. Also depending on the sets they can counter each other's checks as well. I've been using a Hasty-Hydreigon/KS SS Aegislash in the Battle maison and it's been...

At this point Tyrantrum and Tyranitar are on even playing fields in my opinion. Tyranitar beats Tyrantrum in stats, whereas Tyrantrum beats Tyranitar in resistances. Tyranitar has sandstream increasing it's special defence for 5 turns where Tyrantrum has Strong jaw which makes crunch and the...

One of the Pokémon that, on paper, has improved drastically, is Aggron. I've always liked aggron, but it gets destroyed by ... well, everything but the generic bird Pokémon or something with just a normal type attack. Now with it's mega, it's got a great ability, even less resistances and...

I've used mega blastoise a lot in story line and in the battle chateau, and it can really only do one thing that Clawitzer can't: Rapid spin. but other than that, Clawitzer is a pretty good second. it learns more moves that get the mega Launcher boost and can hit just as hard if not harder with...

Every day I'm Catchin' 'em
