  1. Breaking Down the Walls Project [Read post #129]

    Volbeat is an amazing asset when breaking down walls and stall situations; He can sub and/or encore, ruining their current stall forcing them to switch, and from there you can tail glow and bp out to something fast and powerful to sweep, something that at +3 or +6 wrecks even blissey. Volbeat...

    It has a nice role in rainstall. Since i started using it in october, it was around 360 in usage. I'm just pleased that it has a nice usage now, especially seeings as i was on holidays for all but 3 days of this month, so i can hardly be blamed for it's use :P

    Quite a rise in the usage of dewgong, and I am rather happy about that.

  5. Emotional Warfare

    One key to using emotional warfare sucsessfully is not sucumbing to pressure yourself, even when faced with a brick wall. A recent match of mine pitted an immunity stockpile Snorlax against my stockpile dewgong in the rain. As it had immunity to toxic, and we were both at +3/+3, my surf was...

    Just checking, did you take into account that you lose 1 Iv in Spa with hidden power fighting?
  7. Ask a Simple Question, Get a Simple Answer Mark III: Read the FAQ in the Opening Post

    Because without swift swim, rain is at least balanced. It might seem like an odd choice to ban a combo and not drizzle or even (heaven forbid) politoed. Smogon in general are against complex bans, but the community decided its the best thing for the metagame without causing too much disruption...
  8. My first RMT D:

    I think yes, and use agility over roost. Megas showed me the true prowess of agility zapdos and is the near perfect mid game cleaner and late game sweeper, change timid for modest for mor POWER! :D

    I just use a regular MixCario on the end of a smashpass or something, put in shadow ball, take out crunch for blaze kick, and LO/expert belt. with just LO and no boosts, lucario can OHKO all of its counters bar chansey, but she is OHKO'd with hazzards. CC is STAB and takes out blissey who thinks...
  10. My first RMT D:

    Just my two cents from reading: so far, I lol'd at choice specs rachi, but then it made sense. I find your zapdos EV spread unorthodox, thinking a little more investment in SpA should allow you to OHKO specially defensive ferro, so i though putting the 64 EVs into SpA. Choice band over scarf on...

    Hmm... lack of lefties/recovery will hurt Mew very badly. I don't see ghost gem being very useful, so it would replace it with leftovers OR mental herb so when deoxys taunts you you can taunt i back and set up.

  12. Gen V Initial NU Metagame Thread

    Or volbeat could encore you into stealth rocks and get a free +3 and sub to pass out as you switch
  13. Gen V Initial NU Metagame Thread

    I like gen 5 NU, a place where i can pass +3's to electrode and then you have a sweep. Only problem is the absurd amounts of pokemon like Sawk.

    what i mean is, when thundurus was around, Tornadus's usage put it in UU. Now, it's usage has jumped by 25, which means people finally started using it T.T
  15. The WALLS thread!

    Just going to put this out here, but in OU, Mixed Wall Dewgong Dewgong @ Leftovers Hydration Nature: Bold Ev's: 252 HP 152 Def 108 SpD -Stockpile -Toxic -Rest -Surf Best rain wall out there... People go 'Lol dewgong' and think that any of their moves can 2HKO and dewgong can't do shit...

    Tornadus, the poor man's Thundurus.
  17. Fun times with rain stall (301 turn battle!)

    Suggestion noted and rejected. Log is up. Thanks for the suggestion! And thanks for the sprites! Gastrodon would fill a nice slot, only thing is, unlike dewgong, it can't heal status's. Gastrodon seems to be toxic bait IMO, but it's worth a try!
  18. Fun times with rain stall (301 turn battle!)

    Oh wow, i made a mistake, get over it. You really think that it's even doubtful that I have ever used Dewgong? Really? I was using this team for over a week before I made this RMT. You want proof? fine, I'll post the log. No, vaporeon is not better. Maybe on paper it seems better, but trust me...
  19. Fun times with rain stall (301 turn battle!)

    Thanks for your opinion! I shall try out that set. On another note, I replaced Surf with Earthquake, gave it a mild nature and 4 Evs in Atk, just to take care of CM rachi and specially defensive, as my only attacking move is Jirachi's Iron Head.
  20. Creative (and good) Movesets (READ THE OP FIRST)

    Great set! It's rather similar to me Dewgong set below. Just a suggestion, but i would prefer more Ev's in Spdef since you're using tickle to lower their attack. My toxic stall set is this: Dewgong @ Leftovers Ability: Hydration Nature: Bold Ev's: 252 HP 156 Def 100 Spdef -Toxic -Stockpile...
