  1. Crunchatize Me and Co. Proudly Present: Crunchy Offense [OU 'BulkyBalanced']

    I did read your descriptions, whether you feel I did or not. While it is true Earthquake has its uses over Aqua Tail, the latter’s ability to prevent things like Hippowdon and Gliscor from coming in for free is far too great. You mention Gyarados as your Gliscor check, however, based off that...
  2. Crunchatize Me and Co. Proudly Present: Crunchy Offense [OU 'BulkyBalanced']

    How about reading his descriptions and figure it out yourself >__> I’m still not understanding why you do not want Aqua Tail over Earthquake on Choice Band Tyranitar. You say “it 2HKOs Gliscor, but can be outstalled” when, in reality, non-Aqua Tail CB Tar is countered much more effectively by...
  3. Aggron [4F]*

    Should be Mismagius. Nitpick though, nice work.
  4. Average Movesets Statistics and Moves Used in the UU Metagame (September and October)

    Trick seems to have gone down quite a bit from September (3.24%) to October (2.57%). I’m going out on a limb here and guessing that this is due to the fact that this is partly because of the massive decrease in Rotom? Mismagius and Uxie both went up, and Alakazam has joined UU, so they obviously...
  5. November to Remember (A Warstory)

    Absolutely wonderful format, with a very good battle to match. Rotom’s performance really surprised me; a metagame with Garchomp would seem like a place where Rotom wouldn’t do well, however, it was actually the thing that ended up impressing me the most in this match…besides Scarf Blissey of...
  6. How Powerful is Bluffing in Pokemon?

    I’ve been running “Bait Tar” (similar to the set posted by twash) and it’s been absolutely outstanding. The amount of surprise kills you can get with this thing is shocking. Crunch / Pursuit / Flamethrower / Suerpower @ Expert Belt catches a lot of people off guard. People expecting Choice Band...
  7. New and 'creative' moveset/EV spread thread - UU Edition

    To be honest, the best (read: only) way to make sure Kingler isn’t playing an inferior defensive role in contrast to Slowbro when using that set is to throw Knock Off on it, preferably over Amnesia since things that will be hitting you for super effective (Raikou’s Thunderbolt, Sceptile’s Leaf...
  8. New and 'creative' moveset/EV spread thread - UU Edition

    The main issue I see this set is the fact that Slowbro outclasses it nearly entirely. It’s much bulkier than it, both on the Special and Physical side, possesses a Fighting resistance as well as Psychic resistance. Slowbro can run Amnesia and Toxic as well, however, it can afford to use Slack...
  9. Suspect Warstory: Guns, Garchomps, and Steel

    I really enjoyed the war story, the format was quite simplistic, but it didn’t take away any quality from the battle, which was superb in my opinion. This battle summarizes how the Suspect ladder is; Haban Berry, Garchomp and Latias flying around, as well as an abundant amount of Steels and...
  10. Miltank (Update)

    Return does not have 40 more Base Power, as Body Slam is 85 Base Power. It technically is 17, but you could just say Return is a stronger move to use.
