What is a good physical wall that I can pair up with celebi that covers each other's weaknesses well?

Bulky grounds share ice weakness, steels fire, cresselia ghost / dark / bug.
Most bulky waters don't have good recovery moves barring slowbro, but its psychic as well.

suicune, no recovery, vaporeon's defense is lacking.

Please, suggest a good physical wall i can pair up with celebi with a good recovery move. Thanks.

EDIT: zapdos might be added in the mix.

Heatran is the only one I can think of. Celebi resists Heatran's weakneses, while Heatran resists Celebi's weakneses. You can use a Sleep Talker if you need a physical wall.

This is also a commonly played pair, known as Celetran.
 
Is choice scarf weavile viable? I need a good starter, and the shoddybattle statistics say gengar is the most popular lead. Assuming that most of these will be the choice scarf variant (although assuming anything with gengar is shaky), I need a choice scarf to outrun the hypnosis and hit with pursuit/night slash. The problem is, I don't know if he'll have much use outside of this

hmm, gyrados screws him up fairly badly (lack of coverage against it + intimidate). But if you include a gyra counter it can screw gar up with pursuit and revenge kill.
An alternative if you need to kill lead gengar so bad is counter sash weavile.

He can also outspeed any deoxys-e without it's own choice scarf, I think.
 
Which AR cheats are considered legal in Smogon?
I know cloning is, but are there any others?

Counter is a fighting move, which doesn't affect ghosts... And I haven't seen many physical Gengars...
 
Theoretically, what is the greatest number of after-attack actions that can occur to a single Pokemon, and what are those actions? (Leech Seed + Sandstorm + Leftovers + Aqua Ring + Fire Spin...)
 
I had this thought a while ago, if a Yanmega were able to learn Baton Pass legitimately (like in a sorta 4th gen XD), would it be moved up to ubers, or considered anyway?
 
It's been called Boah before Dark Pulse, I don't think that that's how the name came about. I used to think that, but when I posted that answer in the thread someone said that that wasn't it.

That is a 'what if' question, and it doesn't really belong in this thread (or anywhere else for that matter).

It'd only be considered uber if it was gamebreaking. I don't see what's so broken about a pseudo Ninjask that can only reliably pass speed.

Like I said, it was a random name that the creators made.

Then later, it was found out it's in the Dark Pulse set.
