    Pokémon Excadrill

    Well, I didn't need a forum to get this idea, but I do really appreciate the effort.

    Pokémon Excadrill

    One question: I have a breed that I use as scarfed spinner. Problem is, the only steel STAB avaiable is Metal Claw, considering Iron head is a gen V tutor move (the fact that this thing has literally a drill for head and doesn't learn it drives me nut). Now, hoping for the tutors in ORSA, I...

    Other Creative / Underrated Sets Thread (Read the thread, NO SHITTY GIMMICKS)

    I was inspired by the set posted on the previous page, but wanted to give it a twist, and it makes wonders. Vicious (Venomoth) @ Weakness Policy Ability: Tinted Lens EVs: 252 HP / 252 SpA / 4 Spe Timid Nature - Quiver Dance - Bug Buzz - Giga Drain - Sludge Bomb He definitely loses his OU...

    Pokémon Pinsir

    Well, add that to the list. It's not like I have an agenda of things to say when I write a post, I can forget about something.

    Pokémon Pinsir

    Guys, I'm just pointing out that Feint is a very good move and everybody should use it (maybe it's a redundant concept, but I don't feel like reading the whole thread). Then people make mistakes, It happens. We're all human beings. >having unboosted Pinsir on the field >staying on Talonflame I...

    It happens, trust me.

    Personally, I'm running Feint/EQ/CC/SD. Feint is really worth the power loss for screwing people scouting your set with Protect.

    Gen 6 Silly things on the Ubers ladder that just HAPPENED to screw you over

    Ok, this doesn't fit exactly the Ubers ladder, considering it's a random Wi Fi, but I used an Ubers team, and trust me, this story deserves to be told. So, I was looking for people to test on my fresh EVed sun team, when I notice a weird profile. His nick was the same symbol (maybe a Kanji)...

    np: XY OU Suspect Testing Round 6 - Wrecking Ball [Read Post 423 for Posting etiquette]

    Well, no, best scenario is Sableye not dieing because Mawile went for anything alse expecting the switch out. I don't know how good of an argument this can be, I'm just reporting my personal experience while playing; so, for my knowledge, Mega Mawile isn't as problematic as other things. Yeah...

    np: XY OU Suspect Testing Round 6 - Wrecking Ball [Read Post 423 for Posting etiquette]

    Now we're entering in the realm of every possible scenario in existence. I could theorize even this: let's say that someone opens with Mawile to scout with intimidate and switch out immediately, and faces my leading Sableye (I've often used him as a lead). He's scared for the burn, so switches...

    Why would I ever switch Sableye in an attacking Mawile? The definition of check is something that can hinder the target but not freely switch in. Is frankly extremely obvious that my discourse wasn't about binging Sableye in the switch in, so this whole argument is pointless.

    About the Chars, I said "They can ARGUABLY counter, and pretty surely check Mega Mawile", so you're not saying me anything new. I pointed out that you'll probably lose Sableye in order to burn Mawile, but to me is an high risk / high reward strategy. Mawile goes for anything but PR? Sableye...

    I see, then I'll try to articulate more what was coming out of that on liners, that I found actually a decent argument anti-ban: Char X and Y limit Mawile rampage. They can arguably counter, and pretty surely check Mega Mawile, being Y resistant to both STABS (particularly this can't be hit for...

    Shiny Pokemon Experiences

    Lately I'v been flooded by shinies. Doing hordes for EV training, I found 3 shiny Wishmur and 1 shiny Vanillite. In Friend Safari I found a shiny Diggersby. And breeding I got a motherfucking shiny Gible. All in the ark of two weeks.

    I completely agree with this guy. About me, I always found M-Mawile quite predictable, and once you figure out the set, is very easy to play around it. Yeah, figure it out can be very risky, but there are a lot of mons for which you have to risk in order to find out what they're capable of. Like...
