It's a nice move but it's distribution kills it. E/: It appears that GF really tries to improve Ice types. Sadly the weaknesses and overall low speed ruin their walling as well as their sweeping power. Freeze Dry, though a nice move, is not enough.

The main flaw about Sniper Kingdra is the accuracy of Draco Meteor. I've been using him ingame (y) for quite a while now. Just an incredible amount of time you'll sit there, use Focus Energy - and miss 2 or 3 times in a row. Even with a Baton Passed Iron Defense and speedboost from Scolipede...

How would you play him? I can think of: Sucker Punch/Knock Off; Shadow Sneak, Ice Punch/Recover; Disable + Leftovers /Life Orb Or Sucker Punch/Knock Off; Shadow Sneak; Drain Punch ; Ice Punch + Assault Vest Like: 1 or 2 priority moves to use his newly won Protean - and either AV + Drain Punch...

In my opinion Clefable is less of a single-but a teamplayer. She suffers from the 5 slot syndrome, thus performs best when somebody covers up her weaknesses. I've been running this core quite successful lately: Scolipede Speed Boost Black Sludge Impish Subtitude Protect Iron Defense Baton...

In my opinion only Exca deserves to be freed since he was basically BASED on permanent weather. (Same would count for Manaphy... If it wasn't for Tail Glow...) All other mons which have been proffiting from it, but also would've deserved ueber tier for their base-stats alone. Maybe coming from...

1.) M. Gengar uses Levitate. 2.) The meta evolves much less around hazards than last gen. M.G has problems to reliably kill enemies with 1 blow 3.) M.G takes a turn to evolve and make use of Shadow Tag combined with 1.) it's easy to force him out and set up (non song set) 4.) Shadow Tag is less...

I can agree with this. I found myself shifting my (ingame) team continously to bulkier 'mon until I ended up with: Ferrothorn / Donphan / Barbaracle / Volcarona / Goodra + Mega Kangaskhan//Gyarados Which, statistically speaking, deals a great job. Along the path I got rid of multi-hazards-users...

I got some (ingame) footage to show how this works in action; possibly making the strategy easier to understand. I got a quite solid win rate atm. - while playing mostly against experienced Showdown players. Here are a few replayes against enemies against good players, with solid and balanced...

I tried Amnesia, however Calm Mind (in my opinion) is superior for 2 reasons: It doesn't make a big difference; like 20~25% health. Calm Mind most often is enough to survived even strong special attacks with like 35% (Okay, after rocks it DOES make a difference) BUT: Even after Weakness Policy...

That'ld be an argument in favor on Roost. (So he can set up with Calm Mind) We're facing the 4 slot syndrome on this one :P However, Reflect can quite reiably be used by another team partner. And as mentioned before an Iron Defense Scolipede makes a great partner for Swoobat.

Umbreon looses Foul Play and Heal Bell, which are core in most of its UU builds.

Thanks for the answer! Dark types are exactly why I chose Moon Blast and another Reason to use Clefable instead of Quagsire. !In theory! Espeon / Scoli should have given Clefeble enough buffs so it can kill a Klefki swapping into your attack in the first turn after its Prankster Thunderwave...

I don't think there are better stat boosting moves for mixed sweeper ( //ignore: Shelll Smash), that's why I suggested it for this role :p

Thanks. So that'ld mean Focuy Energy would be worth using when using a mixed sweeper (with at least 1 stat dropping ability).

I thought +4 was 100%? Saw that a few pages ago. Or was it wrong?
