  1. Pokémon Talonflame

    Interesting set, i like the surprise factor. First, even with investment, his SPA is rather weak and second, foes that outspeed this set and survive a Brave Bird could give trouble for the bird. Still a god late game sweeper. "basically means that nothing other than Slowbro is a safe switch-in...
  2. Other Most overhyped or underated aspect this gen so far?

    Overhyped: Mega Kangaskhan: This Pokemon is a force to be recognized, but isn't the "God" of Pokémon that some people says (most of them, noobs...). Let's say some things: -Susceptible to all forms of entry hazards. -Predicable move set (Sucker Punch, STAB, Power-up Punch, Coverage/Fake out)...
  3. Pokémon Florges

    IMO, Gardevoir outclasses it. Better SpA, Spe and coverage.
  4. RU X/Y speculation, a look into the possible future

    I think Regirock goes to RU in this generation. Assault Vest is a huge improvement for him and with access to Drain Punch for recovery, he can wall a lot of threats.
  5. Pokémon Scizor

    Regirock is way better than Torkoal in tanking Talonflame: 252+ Atk Choice Band Talonflame Brave Bird vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Regirock: 63-75 (17.3 - 20.6%) -- possible 5HKO 0 Atk Regirock Rock Slide vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Talonflame: 432-508 (145.4 - 171%) -- guaranteed OHKO
  6. Pokémon Talonflame

    Almost every Rock type in the game can tank a hit and OHKO back. Rhyperior is one of the best choices, and he also threats another popular VI Gen Pokemon, Aegislash (physical variants). Take a look: 252+ Atk Choice Band Talonflame Brave Bird vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Rhyperior: 93-111 (25 - 29.9%) --...
  7. Pidgeot

    Pidgey doesn't learn Quick Guard, Double Team, Crunch and Agility as egg move from Archen.
  8. Other Gen 6 NeverUsed Speculation

    I think Chesnaught is going to be NU. First, Flying powerhouses like Moltres, Scyther and Archeops still in RU and all three OHKO him with appropriate move. Second, Chesnaught is walled by Steelix and Escalavier, but none of then can do much in return. Third, in RU there's some hard hitting fire...
  9. Pokémon Aggron

    I agree. Also, Mega Aggron outclasses Registeel in almost every aspect. No surprise if the iron golem goes to RU.
  10. Pokémon Aggron

    Yes, but in counterpart: 0 Atk Mega Aggron Iron Head vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Terrakion: 254-300 (78.6 - 92.8%) 0 Atk Mega Aggron Iron Head vs. -1 0 HP / 0 Def Terrakion: 378-446 (117 - 138%) So: -Mega Aggron can't switch in Terrakion CC, because is 2HKOed. -If Terrakion uses CC and Mega Aggron...
  11. Item Weakness Policy

    Super effective phazing moves completely counters WP strategies. Moves like Dragon Tail triggers WP before phazing the opponent.
  12. Pokémon Banette

    First, I don't understand why people keep saying that "normal Banette" only works as suicide trick room setter. Banette is a decent Ghost and Psychic revenge killer in NU, despite being outclassed by Skuntank (better typing, speed and movepool). STAB Shadow Sneak and Sucker Punch from a 110atk...
  13. Pokémon Gardevoir

    I really love Gardevoir. She is in my team since the beginning of the game. I'm running this set in game and in rating battles (with some success): Gardevoir@choice scarf EV: 252spa, 252spe, 4hp Nature: Hardy Dazzling Glean Psychic Shadow Ball Thunderbolt/Grass Knot Basically, the main...
  14. Pokémon Slurpuff

    I don't think this pokemon is UU worth. There a lot of check and counters for it. Chanderule is a notable example: plays around every set and only fears a boosted thief (which is bad to slurpuff do, because she will get a choice scarf or a choice specs). In RU, Slurpuff could be a decent...
