I would argue that being forced to splode on metagross or getting no value isn't exactly eating the mashes but that's just me. anyway lead rhydon has some sauce if you literally never encounter a lead with HP grass or a water move

This is a Plea to the ADV community: STOP TRYING TO INNOVATE DUGTRIO. Beat Up was the last innovation, everything else is making your Dugtrio worse into everything except Blissey in an attempt to kill Blissey slightly faster than normal Bulky Leichi Dugtrio is BAD. Bulky Dugtrio in general is...

so the team I encountered was like encore salac spore spikes smeargle (probably BP too but I didn't see because I killed it before it could pass) and then like, offensive sub endeavor pert, sub zapdos, aerodactyl, and I can't remember the 5th and 6th, might have been a blissey in there. Needless...

I tilted 200 points today and lost twice to the same awful smeargle team in that 8 game loss streak. How do people kill smeargle instantly because I guess encore smeargle is like the set now

I just hit 1700s on ladder, am I allowed to call myself a good player now?

what does endure salac magneton do to specially defensive steelix this is the new answer to this terrifying meta threat

I actually encountered your Magneton set earlier today, and it... did not kill the full health Dugtrio trapping it with Hidden Power. In fairness I did force them to commit to it way earlier than it's probably meant to be used but still, that's another downside of Timid over Modest. I'm pretty...

Hidden Power type is effectively independent of IVs in gen 7 due to hyper training though, it's why you don't see weird shit like 2 atk 30 spatk Zapdos to have HP Grass for example Note that I used a Gen 3 IV spread for this HP grass so it very well could be different in like gen 6

So I've been thinking about Doom Desire. Not only does it have one of the sickest move names in all of Pokemon, it's also a move that I think might be underexplored/used. Now I'm speaking with the hindsight of Future Sight being good in future gens in conjunction with pivot moves, but Jirachi...

in my years of playing SM OU, the weirdest ditto interaction I've ever had was a ditto copying my thundurus therian and then having the same hidden power type. I've been told that's not how it works on cart and I was running HP Ice at the time so it was definitely strange

I'm more interested in whatever conversation is happening in the chatroom

I know I'm restating the obvious as well as my own opinion but I feel the need to gush. Zapdos is so GOOD. Like if Tyranitar didn't have Sand Stream I am 100% convinced that Zapdos would be top 1. It just does so much and compresses so many roles into one slot and does them all well. He can be a...
