Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
I do like how it can come in and do it over and over again tho. Also that it gets hazard removal itself is cool. And that it can work as a pivot just not as a wall it seems
I'm drafting for a nat draft league rn and I'm looking to pick up a physical wall for balance and Gliscor caught my eye. However it's quite pricey and I'm worried my opponent is just gonna run ice punch on all their physical attackers to nullify Gliscors walling potential. Is it a good pick...

Wanted to post one more pretty cool set. An imposter-proof set-up sweeper with a malleable ability. Simple is pretty good when facing more offensive teams and magic guard is prob better for facing stall. I flip flop back and forth on these two and I'm not really sure which one is better...
Well tbf I did that call that one specifically a gimmick for a reason lol.

I get imposter proofing but is there no one pokemon Chansey can just switch into and not counter like that without it resulting in both just sitting there doing nothing? No true counter?
How does one actually beat imposter Chansey? Defensive teams get eaten by abusing your own regenerator and healing moves over and over with infinite pp and set up sweepers get utterly shut down by it as well. I've lost multiple games thanks to Chansey's running spooky plate specifically to...
How do draft leagues normally handle a big dlc addition of new moves and such? Do they include the new movesets into future matches or ignore them? In a newish draft league rn and we’re not super sure how to progress
Some background is I haven't played nat dex very much and wanted to ask the reasoning for a couple placements. I have played a lot of the previous gens OU's however.
Slither Wing on paper to me seems like a pretty strong attacker with its priority, strong stab and recovery + bulk. Why isn't it...
