  1. Resource SV OU Viability Ranking Thread [ UPDATE: POST #751 ]

    ok maybe im crazy but ive been putting in some work with :golduck: -> C. Been using NP / Ice Beam / Surf / Grass Knot and at +2 it OHKOs Dondozo as well as Tera Water Garganacl and Annihilape. Floatzel can struggle to break through those fat water types and Clodsire so having strong natural...
  2. Pokémon Dondozo

    :dondozo: I have been using this set as well, but with some modifications: Dondozo @ Leftovers Ability: Unaware Tera Type: Dark / Grass EVs: 248 HP / 8 Atk / 252 SpD Careful Nature - Liquidation - Curse - Rest - Sleep Talk Curse + RestTalk is actually amazing, and he's surprisingly bulky...
  3. Metagame Terastallization Tiering Discussion [ UPDATE POST #1293]

    I started out this gen really really hoping tera would stay, but after playing a bunch of games I unfortunately don't see a situation where it's balanced. Tera means it's impossible to gameplan effectively because you have no idea what any pokemon could be running, or when tera could be...
  4. Metagame SV OU Metagame Discussion

    espathra broken. shed tail renders balance unviable. revival blessing is cracked. these are the 3 easiest bans rn imo. after that I think annihilape, roaring moon, and chi-yu should probably be looked at in that order. if it wasn't for some hilariously fat pokemon like dondozo, ting lu and...
  5. Metagame Terastallization Tiering Discussion [ UPDATE POST #1293]

    I am not in either camp rn, haven't played enough to have an opinion but would just like to say that if Tera seems overly restricting I'd much rather a half-measure be taken FIRST and then if it's still busted then fully ban it. I think it's an interesting enough mechanic and there are enough...
  6. Metagame [SPOILERS] Scarlet & Violet OU Discussion [BAN LIST POST 626]

    been playing the meta since the ladder came out and a couple thoughts. Chien Pao: prob the most broken thing in the meta imo. it's weavile on roids, crazy ability plus fighting coverage and insane speed means it doesn't care about not having Knock or Triple Axel. Currently running Pawmot to...

    what's the best way to get better / increase your metagame knowledge besides just playing a bunch?
  8. Programming Showdex - An Auto-Updating Damage Calculator Built into Showdown!

    such a cool project :) wondering if there's any functionality for updating spreads at the end of the turn. e.g. sometimes i check the calc to see what item or EVs a pokemon might have based on the damage they did on a certain turn, like if Kart does 35 to a Buzzwole w/Smart Strike you know it's...
