Project National Dex OU Matchmaking (discontinued)

Sorry for the wait, but voting stage is up!

Clefable by ChrisPBacon !

Clefable @ Leftovers
Ability: Magic Guard
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 Spe
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Moonblast
- Stealth Rock
- Soft-Boiled
- Calm Mind/ Knock Off/ Idk literally anything

Gastroclef form a solid defensive structure on bulkier teams, with clef appreciating gastrodons ability to answer most tran sets, a mon which it lets in easily while clef provides a dark resist so gastro is not forced to be the sole gren check. In return, clef works as a scout for most physical attackers gastrodon struggles with, such as the likes of mega lopunny, garchomp and landorus-therian.

Corviknight by Avaritia GC !

Corviknight @ Leftovers
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 252 HP / 184 Def / 72 SpD
Impish Nature
- Brave Bird
- U-turn
- Defog
- Roost

Your typical Corviknight, but the type synergies between these two are pretty unparalleled. Gastrodon is a good check to a number of Fire-types ( , to a lesser extent ) packing Clear Smog for the former should it try to Quiver Dance, as well as most Electric-types ( , to a lesser extent ) that would otherwise shred our metal birb apart, and of course Corviknight is also a good answer to most of the Grass-types in the tier ( , to a lesser extent ), at worst 1-for-1ing them in exchange for their Z-move.

Mega Latias by lifemap !

Latias-Mega (F) @ Latiasite
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Calm Mind
- Psyshock
- Aura Sphere
- Roost

One thing that gastrodon appreciates is latias mega. Usually used on fat, gastrodon has trouble with certain mons such as every grass type in existence. Latias is a great mon to sweep people when you get a good opportunity and will sponge gastros weakness.

Voting ends tomorrow !

Congrats to Avaritia GC for winning this round, your submission will be to the archives ! This weeks Pokemon is….



What will you pair with this killer clown ?​

 

[Haok]

Lopunny-Mega @ Lopunnite
Ability: Scrappy
Happiness: 0
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Close Combat
- Frustration
- Fake Out
- U-turn

I think lopunny pairs well with blaceph, considering blacephalon auto loses vs specific mons like ttar and weavile if they know your set. Lopunny tries to punch holes in the team so blaceph can sweep or vice versa.

Submitting mega Diancie

Diancie-Mega @ Diancite
Ability: Clear Body
EVs: 124 Atk / 132 SpA / 252 Spe
Naive Nature
- Diamond Storm
- Moonblast
- Mystical Fire
- Stealth Rock

Dia is great partner for clown, as it provides near irremovable rocks to wear down weavile (and to a lesser extent ttar), as it's mbounce also can potentially bounce back opposing rocks which the clown hates. It also provides another source of offensive pressure, and can pressure darks like ttar.

Congrats to The Dragon Master for winning this week, and apologies for my hiatus.
This week we have a newly ranked Pokemon, and one of my personal favourites…



What will you pair with the dark bird this week?​

 

[The Dragon Master]

Submitting big iron fist giant

Melmetal @ Leftovers
Ability: Iron Fist
EVs: 252 Atk / 164 SpD / 92 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Double Iron Bash
- Superpower
- Thunder Punch
- Thunder Wave

Melm is a great partner for badmoltress gmolt as it can swap into stuff like dia, mawile and scarf lele (though u must be careful abt SE coverage but melm can usually take one) that revenge gmolt, while para support can help patch up gmolts low ish speed.

 

[Solaros & Lunaris]

TOXIC CUBES (Greninja) @ Heavy-Duty Boots / Life Orb
Ability: Protean
EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Hasty Nature
- Hydro Pump
- Gunk Shot
- Ice Beam
- Spikes

Greninja can lure in various Fairy-types to KO them with Gunk Shot or LO Hydro Pump, letting Moltres go crazy. It also accumulates residual damage on shared checks like Ferrothorn through Spikes, and can check various offensive Pokemon that nuke Moltres-G, such as Garchomp and Mega Diancie.

 

[Haok]

Blaziken @ Electrium Z
Ability: Speed Boost
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Flare Blitz
- Thunder Punch
- Close Combat

Pair it with another chicken, blaziken helps punch huge holes in mons that would wall moltres galar, while moltres galar could also open the way for blaziken to sweep by taking out things like victini.

 

[Zeno420]

Tapu Koko @ Light Clay
Ability: Electric Surge
EVs: 248 HP / 8 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- U-turn
- Taunt
- Light Screen
- Reflect

Moltres galar behind screens is unreasonably fat. Who needs teammates to help check mons such as koko if you can just eat tbolts for breakfast and set up in their face.​
