Future Sight is slow and sometimes you need immediate pressure. Biggest example is Toxapex. Future Sight gives the Pex enough time to lay Tspikes or Knock Off your AV, but instead you can just nail it with Eerie Spell and 2hko (even on the switch if it came in on expected Flamethrower). You can...

You forgot Mandibuzz. Thanks for this post, though, gave me some great ideas! Just want to say that I really like your post. One thing I like about it is that it avoids the typical trap of describing the Pokemon before talking about its metagame position. Every single time someone posts about...

Is Spectrier even really that good? Looking at the top 10-20 teams on the ladder from just the last couple of days (off of babiri), I didn’t see a single Spectrier team. I do see a Dark type (or a Blissey) on every single one of those teams, though, just like I see a Ground type on each team to...

You might be tired of talking about Zygarde, but Eeveeto and FlamingVictini make some really good points and I believe that some posters are being dismissive just because they're already convinced that Zygarde is broken without critically thinking about it. I think the most dismissive posts by...

If you're having problems with offense, weather, Beast Boosters, psychic terrain, or webs (which, admittedly, I haven't seen much of), then you might consider the usually niche Trick Room. Conkeldurr is a monster, specs or mixed WP Aegislash will carry games, Hatterene and Crawdaunt are as...

What? If Mew uses Transform, it can no longer use Imprison. You’ve got to Imprison first, which makes Roost the clearly superior option.

Hi, math/physics guy here, normally a lurker but just came to point out that this isn't quite right, even though I'm very pro-ban on Jirachi (it's a very limiting Pokemon in way too many ways to count). You won't see two consecutive flinches more than any other outcome. The chance to see two...
