To be honest, just about any ev spread is good on mega venu, whether it be physically, specially, or mixed defensive, or my personal preference, bulky attacker.
EDIT: Just took a look at your rmt, and I think you should go with offensive mega venu. All of your team members have defensive ev spreads, which is good for a stall team, but they don't have too much offensive pressure. A simple ev spread of max hp max spa, with giga drain, sludge bomb, and HP fire is what I would recommend.
What are some good non-Dragon Dance egg moves for Char-X? So far I've got one with Dragon Dance, Belly Drum, Crunch and Outrage
Please dont use belly drum on Charizard, its not good. Flare blitz is almost essential for any offensive charizard X set.
Isn't Flare Blitz level-up?
You're right, but its at level 77 - I'd rather have it as an egg move as opposed to having to level up my pokemon more than I need to, but thats just me.
It's also at level 1 and Heart Scales are easier to obtain than Bibarels.
On a side note, how do you obtain Acrobatics on Charizard? I know it can because of the BW NU analysis, but I don't see it listed as EM
Oh yeah good point lol :P
Idk, I wouldnt use acrobatics on charizard as I would never use it without an item (either megastone).
Duh, this is for my special tiering for a game between a friend. We play on a meta based around NU, but with stuff that sucks without a Mega (Kangaskhan, Charizard, Mawile, Aggron) allowed. So I want to use this set.
Acrobatics Charmander was given out as either a Japanese or Korean special event.
So you can't legally have Acrobatics and its Hidden Ability, or either of the egg moves Beat Up and Air Cutter.... not that that really matters anyway.
No need to be rude, how was I supposed to know that it was for your special tier?
Posted on the Azumarill thread but I managed to masuda a 31/31/16-17/31/31/31 shiny BellyJet, do you guys think that's enough to see the light competitively? It's def at 100 would be 181-182 vs 196 if it was perfect, which I don't think will come into play too much, but I'm just wondering.
Of course that's viable! As long as it isn't missing the perfect IV in attack, hp, or speed - you're good to go. Congrats on the shiny bellyjet marill!
I followed the evolution of the OU meta pretty closely after X/Y release but haven't kept up. Is there a list of all the posts for OU bans to Uber with their explanation?
Mega Gengar: Shadow Tag
Deoxys-N: TOO STRONK FOR OU
Blaziken/Mega Blaziken: Baton Pass/Speed Boost
Mega Kanga: Parental Bond
Mega Lucario: Adaptability
Genesect: Really godamn versatile
Swagger: It's swagger >_>
Baton Pass On More Than 3 Pokemon: fuck BP :P
Not exactly what you wanted, but it's a basic guide of what's been banned since release
There's a OU ban list on the top of the page IIRC (Or the one that says current tier list. Try that,)
For the most part, no, but there's a few exceptions. I'm not aware of a list with all of them, but I know that earth power is an egg move for deino and a beedrill with drill run can breed it onto a karrablast (in gen 6 only)
Another one is Heat Wave Litwick/Slugma
That's all I got tho :/
Thank you! Egg. 388 so was pretty lucky. Going for shiny sceptile now and then I should be ORAS ready!
2 kinda awkward mechanics questions. I think I know the answer to the first, but would like confirmation. The second I'm clueless on:
1. If a pokémon with Unaware is on the field, would Stored Power keep any power boosts it's obtained through stat increases, or revert to it's default base power. I assume it's the first, but I'm not sure.
2. If 2 pokémon both user sucker punch on the same turn, what happens? Do they both use Sucker Punch (both used an attack after all)? Would only the slower pokémon pull it off (because it goes after the attack?) Do both sucker punches fail? Bit confused on this one.

It keeps its boost from the stats boost, but the attack comes from the normal special attack stat if that makes sense (So it can still be 120 power, but will come form the default special attack stat). On the second point I believe both fail.
Alienjesus, DHR is right about Stored Power, the base power would be the same but the boost would not count. So, say you had +2 in SpA, it would have 60 base power but come off of a +0 SpA.
As for Sucker Punch, the faster Pokemon will use Sucker Punch as normal and the slower Pokemon will fail.

Why is there not a Hackmon Doubles tier?
Is there an OU XY threat list I can find anywhere? It doesn't have to be an official smogon list, I'd just like one for for tweaking my current team.
You can find a viability list here: http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/xy-ou-viability-ranking-thread-v2.3502428/. It doesn't organize them by role, but it well-organized by their threat level and viability.Mega Moltres said:
