Staraptor @ Choice Scarf Ability: Intimidate EVs: 180 HP / 116 Atk / 212 Spd Jolly Nature - Final Gambit - Bravebird - Close Combat - U-Turn that is the set I used. It was meant to outspeed Terrakion and kill Garchomp with FG. Probably with your team these are not so problematic though. But I...

Cool to see this strat evolve. I some while ago had a streak of 143, with a Scarf-Staraptor lead. Instead of Double-Edge I had Final Gambit, and I had 180EVs in HP I think - enough to OHKO Garchomp 3. Maybe you could also think about that, it is a powerful escape button and kills *so many*...

Thanks! Yeah, that sums up also my experiences with Whimsi. Although with the Hail-team, it is less of dead weight, because Spread + Fake Tears is so strong. There of course are situations where Abomasnow + Rotom get a double KO whereas with Whimsi there is no double KO. But Whimsi being alive...

That is an interesting idea. My first thought to circumvent Fake Out was making Whimsi slower than Abomasnow, and then testing whether that changes the preference of Fake Out. But your idea might be better. Actually, I already considered Cottonee for similar reasons, but for another team. I...

For the short discussion following this comment about the viability of Hail: I tried the 88-wins-Machamp-team again in the subway, and with some variation I got to 196 wins first try. I don't know about later generations, but at least there, Hail is viable. One crucial part of it is hitting...

Is there something like a viable Hail team? It may be argued that Hail is the worst weather. Reporting a streak with a Hail team, so let’ see… [/SPOILER] Other than on my previous posts, now I finally deliver proofs, have a look on YouTube: Also for previous streaks there are some...

Welcome to this Forum! You made your point about Fairium Z, but have you considered Focus Sash?

Thank you, I will try that!

Thank you very much for this detailed response! Indeed this already shone light on some things. For example I thought that no matter which PID frame I hit, my IVs should be the same, which caused me to draw wrong conclusions. And yes, this is BW and not BW2 And for the delay, you said it does...

Hi, I am trying to breed a Growlithe, but I cannot even get the right IVs. I succesfully RNGd stationaries and wild pokemon, but I don't get the breeding to work. I tried different seeds, and different delays/timer0s. For my understanding delay and timer0 carry the same information, maybe...

Lost at battle 129 against Clerk Bank. Oh, and merry christmas! It was this team I already presented, with a small change on Metagross, with EQ > Protect and Expert Belt > Muscle Band. I got to 174 with it before, so this is nothing too special, but I want to share it. I did not really make...

Scarf-Spore-Breloom and Unnerve Aerodactyl with Sash may be nice in doubles. One might even try to go for Hone Claws and make use of Rock moves.

Hi, I just briefly want to present a team idea centered around this Murkrow and Perish Song: Murkrow @ Sash Ability: Prankster EVs: Either min or max speed probably ... Nature - Perish Song - Protect - Torment - Sub/Feather Dance/Captivate/Roost/Fly/Spite/... Obviously Perish Song is the thing...

Hello, I just want to briefly submit a finished streak of 93 wins. Basically I wanted to make Ninjasks unique qualities work in the subway. Here is the team:

We should be very thankful for him. Otherwise streaks would continue way longer

Not just that. I need to be able to hit ice types with snow veil. That's why I considered a strong steel with Smart Strike

(EDIT: I am not sure if you read everything I wrote, but I do not have Sun/Moon. So this is just an idea, that came from the subway and should work way better in Sun/Moon due to Kartana solving crucial problems.) No apologies needed. I remember I did not give Nidoking 4 Def IVs because then Def...

Sand, TR and Speedy Trainers all were in the Gen 5 facilities. Against Sand, I manually set Hail, which worked okay, although Whimsi probably did a better job than my suggested Tornadus. It's bad of course when you reset Hail, defeat a foe and in comes the next setter. This is how I lost the...

Hello, here I want to present a team based on an idea I tried in the subway. While it breezed through the majority of battles, it had huge troubles in certain common situations. However looking some gens further ahead seems to solve all problems by the unique qualities of Kartana (and other...

If ice is such a problem, a steel like Metagross or Scizor may be a bliss.
