ORAS OU Reservation Index V3

[Adamant Zoroark]

I forgot that there was a rule against editing posts in this thread

After an argument about Inner Focus vs. Justified, if you're thinking Bisharp is a valid reason to be running Justified:
252 Atk Life Orb Bisharp Sucker Punch vs. -2 0 HP / 4 Def Lucario: 221-261 (78.6 - 92.8%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

This is an OHKO after Stealth Rock (3.125%) and two Close Combats (-20% due to Life Orb recoil and -2 Defense), and that's Jolly Bisharp. Lucario is too frail to be taking advantage of Justified.

 

[Martin]

Lucario uses it to get a boost when switching in on KOffs/Crunches not to boost on Sucker Punches after 2 CCs... getting a boost off of unboosted Weavile or Bisharp isnt particularly uncommon considering that they cant really touch you outside of Low Kick anyway, making Justified more consistent for its purpose.

Would reserving Scyther be possible?

... I know what people are about to say, but the main niche that Scyther has is being a worse Talonflame, while having a ridiculously powerful U-Turn in STAB. It also doesn't take Recoil damage, and has access to Brick Break/Rock Smash (Which is really a waste of space, but I thought it could be worth mentioning) to deal with the likes of Tyrannitar and Heatran.

Feel free to reject this if you feel like it's waaaaay too horrible of an idea,

Scyther isn't viable for a number of reasons that I can explain more in depth if you would like in a pm or on PS.

K then

... How do you PM around here?

 

[Hootie]

A revamp for Latias (High Priority) is up for reservation

 

[Tressed]

I'll take it, almost done with Jirachi anyways

 

[busyguy]

I know someone asked about Volcarona, but it's been over a month now and Icing might have lost interest.

Seeing Bulky Volcarona in several Spl matches, for example in Ben Gay vs CBB (Week 3) or also in Jamvad vs Daftmau5 (Week 2) I looked for an analysis on it, but couldn't find one.
There is only the 72 HP offensive set, so I want to do it.
Can I do a revamp of Volcarona ?

 

[AM]

I dont really find bulkyrona good :/ just my two cents on the matter and those games werent very convincing.

This is old, needs a new spread and just tons of metagame references are out of date. Brought it up with QC and Tokyo Tom gave me permission to do a revamp. Skeleton will be up tomorrow

 

[Ramses]

Hello

Can I revamp Mega Beedrill as it's a bit outdated and such, like still mentioning Shadow Tag.

I just edited this out in a CMS edit fwiw. One incredibly small detail like a mention of a banned mon doesn't merit a revamp on its own.

 

[D Dancer]

Krookodile need an analysis

 

[Hootie]

Zygarde is getting a revamp which is being done by celticpride as well as Serperior which is being done by bludz

 

[MANNAT]

Could I write a analysis for specs hoopa-u which is arguably the best set atm?

Specs Hoopa is already in the works, Nedor will be posting it tonight or tomorrow. I already talked to him about it before you posted, hence him writing it.

oh ok, :[

 

[Hootie]

Due to generally being outdated, Landorus-T is getting a revamp and is being written by Vertex.

 

[Delibird Heart]

Hey, are joke analysises still a thing that exist ? I'd like to do one for scatterbug.

A joke analysis is only done for Pokemon that are stuck in a tier but aren't worthy of it. Like Ambipom

 

[Delibird Heart]

Ah, alright sorry, didn't know. Thanks for the fast answer :)

 

[AM]

I'm pretty sure we don't do joke analysis anymore.

 

[Hootie]

Write ups for Choice Band and Choice Specs Kyurem-B are up for reservation.

 

[Albacore]

Reserving both if that's okay, if not then just Specs.

 

[kumiko]

Albacore go for it

Heracross is also up for a revamp. The old analysis is pretty outdated with no mentions of the bulky Heracross spread and having SD Facade on it still.
