the last 3 teams in this seem to have broken links, that should probably be fixed Edit: also some of them are ineligible for play due to some moveset compatibility issues

Gigas' higher Special Bulk is inconsequential, not only is Slak's Physical bulk generally better but the difference is small enough that you'd never use Gigas for that bulk. The lower HP actually matters, so why would you use Gigas? Strength Sap is a move that basically nobody uses anymore...

I've finally decided to write my VR follow up I promised. Probably shoulda done this a while ago but now is better than never. I won't go over the whole VR here just placements I see as divisive. With me approaching a month removed from that VR and hearing other's opinions for it, a couple of my...

Yo I wanna talk on some things I disagree with on this VR. Mostly abilities and stuff I think should be ranked but a few shuffled placements too. Abilities: I belive that there are quite a few viable abilities that were left off of this. I have experience with a lot of these, but some of them...

No Guard itself on balance is fine, I just mean No Guard sweepers in general are fairly unreliable.

Quick question, what do you think on Ludicolo and Gyarados? They're the only mons not mentioned here that I've seen used (other than Poliwrath and Shed but that's very understandable), so I'm curious.

I must question the validity of using Sturdy Doublade when you already have 2 WGs. I get that it improofs Kart, but I feel that the Kart is moreso a justification for using Sturdy Doublade than a set actually needed on the team. I'd say to either switch the Doublade for smth else or another set...

There's basically no reason to use Chomp when you can run smth like Ice Shard PDon. That set is not only better at sweeping, bulkier and better at fighting Zyg, but has more utility since it's running priority. The only pro it really has is lacking the weaknesses PDon has, but I'd argue the...

:Chansey: :Zygarde-Complete: :Audino-Mega: :Steelix-Mega: :Slowbro-Mega: Siphonaptera's October 2024 VR!!!!! I am here, and I have a VR. It hasn't been too long since my last VR. But since than not only have many of my opinions changed, but hpl happened and I think that was a great showcase...

The biggest issue Heatran has an an offensive WGer is that PDon exists and tends to be a lot better. PDon doesn't have to deal with a Fighting weakness, and stats wise is better in every way except for Heatran having slightly higher Special bulk. PDon doesn't have STAB Sunsteel, but has double...

What type of bug are you reporting? Teambuilder What is the bug? In both Gen 7 Pure Hackmons and Gen 6 Pure Hackmons, Darmanitan-Zen is marked as "Illegal" despite being usable in both tiers. https://imgur.com/a/j939O54 This should also apply to BH as well as Gen 5 PH (thought I haven't...

This discussion is about gen 6

I think Secret Sword absolutely belongs on that set too and I really don't think switching Trick for Ice Beam is worth it. Also I really don't see Sludge Wave as remotely essential, partially 'cause Sludge Bomb is also an option and partially since you may either be improofing with Audino or...

I wasn't part of this conversation I know, but I saw a Let's Snuggle Forever Marowak and think that can work well on Banette as well helping to alleviate the Zygarde matchup. Play Rough might work too but idk the calcs there.

I got bored and made a set importable for gen 3, hope this is useful to people https://pokepast.es/0c6ef3f39c60f66e Edit: made a small update fixing a few typos, cleaning things up and adding a Kabutops set I forgot about https://pokepast.es/fbe013a1ae3e2981

Thanks for the response! I feel that I can probably clarify a few of my points here though with what you've said. Slowbro being ranked so high is mostly based off of personal use, I found it incredibly effective when I ran it just as much as the other mons in A. Marowak not being able to OHKO...

This is a follow up to this VR describing a few of my more divisive / strange opinions alongside really just any elements of this VR that I felt are worth talking about. I disagree with a lot of elements of the official VR, and want a more public decryption as to why instead of just arguing on...

'Cause it's bad It's vulnerable to all of the Mold Breaker moves, dies to any passive damage and struggles to justify itself over almost any Wonder Guard mon. It's mostly a noobtrap, but has a very small place on some stall teams so it's ranked.

pretends to bluff WG* it doesn't actually bluff it since the WG set is unviable so it's very easy to just see right through if you know the Innards set exists also it's a terrible Innards mon in it's own right

'Sup nerds, I made a VR. I've really enjoyed how the meta has developed, with Spam getting worse and more balanced structures getting better I've been having a lot of fun. That said it's hard to play this meta because the Ladder is more of a shitshow of shenanigans than an AG ladder. People have...
