Using Fire Fang against Skarmony is never a good idea, unless Garmchop get boosted sufficiently and it is under the sunshine. Without Life Orb, a 252 EV Atk Garmchop's Fire Fang takes Skarmony 24.6% - 29.3% HP. Without Choice Scarf, there are a lot of dragons in Uber those are faster than...

I think Sleep Powder is the best choice for the fourth move. With it, Venomoth can be switched in to face any slower pokemon, use Sleep Powder, force it to switch, and use this free turn to Dance. With Tinted Lens, Psychic and Bug Buzz, Venomoth always hit the foe at neutral damage, so I don't...

Fire blast is not reliable. For example, when you successfully trap a Forretress, as there is no way to escape, it will hit you as hard as it can. If your Fire Blast missed, I don't think Shandera is okay to suffer one pay back from Forretress. Same thing to trap Scizor.

Entry hazard put this pokemon in a huge problem. Even the opponent only lay down 1 SR and 1 Spikes, this pokemon would only have maximum 37% HP on the first time to go (and there is no second time for it, unless the hazards are spined away). I think the best teammate for Urugamosu is a...

Most of ghost pokemons may be used as spin blockers, but I think Shandera Shadow Tag even do more: A spin KILLER!! Shandera @ Choice Scarf Nature: Modest EVs:164 HP/92 Speed/252 Special atk Moveset: Flamethrower Shadowball Energyball Psychic Here is the list of spinner in Black...

Can Doryuuzu be switched in when another pokemon (i.e., Snorlax) is being trapped by Shandera's Shadow Tag? I don't think Doryuuzu's Mold Breaker has effect when it is not on the field.

Scyther @ Evolution Stone: EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Speed / 4 Sp. Def Nature: Jolly Original base stat: 70 HP/110 Atk/80 Def/55 SpAtk/80 SpDef/105 Speed Total: 500 When having Evolution Stone, it is equivalent to: 70 HP/110 Atk/130 Def/55 SpAtk/130 SpDef/105 Speed Total: 600 Good atk and speed...

I think with the ability Shadow Tag, this set should work: Shandera @ leftovers Ability: Shadow Tag Nature: Timid EVs: 252 HP / 252 Speed / 4 Def Moveset: Acid Armor Calm mind Flamethrower Rest Switch it in an Infernape(choice)/Snorlax/Scizor/Blissey/Brozong/Dusknoir... With 252 HP...

Your Manaphy is built as the instruction in the smogon website; however, I don't think it is good at all. Personally, I think that 252 HP/252 Def/4SpA for Manaphy is better. It would make your Manaphy become very physcially defensive. If you switch Manaphy in a suitable pokemon (like Blissey)...

For Fire Punch/Iron Head: 1) Turn 1: - Ninjiask uses Protect. - Jirachi uses Fire Punch. - Ninjiask protected itself. - Ninjiask's Speed Boost raises its speed. 2) Turn 2: - Ninjiask uses Subtitute. - Jirachi uses Fire punch. - The substitute took the damage for Ninjiask (and broken)...

Can anyone help me how to optimize my team? (Eg., treat with Baton Pass one)

Many Jirachis have Fire Punch, but not Jirachi lead with Scarf. Lead Scarfachi has U-turn instead. The normal move set is: Iron head Trick Stealth Rock U-turn The purspose is when Jirachi cannot deal with something, it can use U-turn, so we can freely switch another pokemon regardless being...

It is how a Baton Pass Team defeat me: The battle starts. 1) Turn 1: - Ninjiask uses Protect. - Jirachi uses Trick. - Ninjiask protected itself. - Ninjiask's Speed Boost raises its speed 2) Turn 2: - Ninjiask uses Subtitute - Jirachi uses Trick - But it failed - Ninjiask's Speed Boost...

Deal or No Deal The title above shows the main idea for my team: my pokemons are built mainly to counter the pokemons that are often used to switch in to hit it. Therefore, with a correct prediction, my pokemon will do a huge damage on the switched pokemon. For example, many of the...
