oh damn, youre shitmon connoisseur?

minor nitpicks with angrypidgeons team, i think aggron shouldve gone slightly more dedicated into beating enemy clef, whether that be with 36 or so speed ivs to outspeed uninvested clef or to run focus punch, clefable is a nightmare mon in this mu and aggron being the guy to clown on her couldve...

why isnt draco meteor used more on mega latias? feels like itd be a decent neutral breaking tool with an effective 195 bp (though i come from earlier generations so i dont know how much i'm underestimating the 10 bp difference or the introduction of fairies tbh) is it because megas inherently...

:aerodactyl: :tyranitar: :aggron: :magnezone: :gyarados: :breloom: rock spam HO counterHO (pokepast.es) teambuilding process: Aggron: the star of the show, the main man, other favourable descriptors creating a rule of three. head smash is non optional. i decided that having aggron be the...

Voting fidgety (what happened to the thread?)

this is the first team ive ever seen not run stealth rocks in dpp

Alr, i prob just overreacted when i heard about the interaction

Take fear and hungers coin flip mechanic for an (admittedly loose) example. It gives you control of whether you pick heads or tails, but theres no actual difference between the two, and its completely arbitrary as to which one you pick. Is this a mindgame in the “game” sense of the word because...

I can respect the idea behind it, but whats the mindgame? Its a pure rock-paper-scissors dynamic. If there is something hidden that im missing, where theres some secret reason to use one over the other for reasons other than this interaction? other mindgames are workable if you lose them. Other...

What's the idea behind roostless swords dance gliscor? id like to think I'm a decent player, but anytime I use it, face it, see it in a replay, its always super underwhelming and not worth the teamslot of a better swords dancer or a better gliscor set, and these sets remove the one thing gliscor...

Ba backing this up with a bit of evidence, and reasons to use it over gengar/what shifts in the meta led to it becoming better than it was -a better matchup into all rapid spinners: can set up a NP on donphan, forre, tentacruel and especially claydol. Cant set one up on starmie, but you live...

Why is frustration legal considering its only use is to force 50/50s with ditto, and adds an element of rng thats completely unnecessary seeing as its carbon copy exists

sorry about that, i went to put it on the smogon forums after i saw with a post above, and thought it automatically deleted this one for some reason

Actually tbf, it shouldnt have still said 364 speed after i was knocked

How do you delete a thread

IMO Mismagius is deserving of a spot in the E rank for its nasty plot/shadow ball/hp fighting/filler set. finding nasty plot turns isnt too difficult thanks to its trio of immunities and especially the fact that it has 40 more spdef than gar. my only real credentials with it is success around...

Does magneton count for guts? I feel it should be added to the list of mons that dont count, but if it does im gonna make a push for gold
