Mix and Mega.

I think you guys are undervaluing Alakazite. Even though it's only a +90 BST increase, the boosts themselves are allocated efficiently. If you're going to say that it sucks because it gets 10 less BST, then you should also trash stuff like Gardevoirite, Scizorite, Charizard stones etc. for...

Here are some sets I've thought of that have been pretty effective (used in only about 2-3 battles though).

On for games (available for the next half hour).

PSA - mono-attacking waters will suck because probably 80% of teams will have a Red Orb user somewhere. But if you have played ORAS ubers before, you probably already knew that.

So Aqua is finally back up? I'm on for games.

I've been trying to get onto Aqua for the past few days but all I've been getting is server connection errors. Where else can you play this? I'm cool to battle anyone (available for the next 40-50 minutes from this post).

Water/Steel isn't even that good of a defensive typing since it gives it a bunch of exploitable weaknesses. Water/Psychic actually seems a bit better since ghost and dark attacks have lower BP and will probably be less common since Knock Off is much worse here. Interestingly enough, I made an...

Hippowdon @ Altarianite Ability: Sand Stream EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def Impish Nature - Slack Off - Earthquake - Whirlwind / Toxic - Return / Toxic 108/152/138/108/72/47 Ground / Fairy is possibly the best typing for taking physical hits. Resists fighting, rock, bug, dark and is immune to...

While I'm generally really conservative when it comes to bans, and truthfully I haven't had much difficulty dealing with Regice due to overpreparing for it, I think its power level is just too much for this metagame. It is kind of similar to offensive Deo-S in OU, except with 200 base atk and a...

120 base atk without boosts won't cut it here. Not to mention its only physical moves SF boosted are pitifully weak and un-STAB.

No discussion on OHKO spam? Some (bad) replays: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/anythinggoes-187758544 http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/anythinggoes-187761736 http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/anythinggoes-187762285 So Ogre seems to be the best abuser of Sheer Cold because of its good...

Well endless battle is basically the same thing as timer stalling which, I assume, is against PS rules. Also, dumb things like swagger and OHKO moves can be played around, unlike endless battle strategies.

Voting 2. It would be pretty lame if you switch your Mandibuzz into something like a Donphan and it gets OHKO'd by LO Head Smash with a crit after rocks. Then you're just playing OU again.
