  1. BW2 Doubles Viability Ranking Thread

    This was a lot of fun to make! I'm glad I suggested this. I agree with Infernape in B rank. Good stabs and access to encore/fake out. I don't like bisharp in A. It's so weak to spread moves and alot of things can take hits from it. Defiant is nice but people will not switch in their intimidate...
  2. General Doubles Metagame Thread

    Before I address the questions I think a problem a lot of people have while team building is that they try to have an answer for everything. This is impossible in real battle time and often weakens the team strategy as a whole. I am going to explain my thoughts on the following questions...

  4. General Doubles Metagame Thread

    Hey I've been playing doubles lately because it seemed really interesting. Two of the things that work in doubles well that don't in singles is hail and tailwind, or "Hail wind." Here is a team I've built that I think has a lot of potential but I'm missing some key things. Abomasnow @ Focus...

  7. The UU Viability Ranking Thread

    First of all, I don't think aerodactyl should be played in the lead spot too often. Really, roost is a better option over stealth rock. Roost gives aero the oppurtunity to heal off the stealth rock damage it recieves when switching in. I should have said Aerodactyl revenges alot of the...
  8. The UU Viability Ranking Thread

    I believe aerodactyl belongs in B rank. The life orb set serves as a check to an unbelievable amount of attackers in the tier. It has some trouble hurting defensive threats but taunt can mitigate this to an extent. It can reliably set up stealth rock multiple times due to opponents switching out...

    My battles always seem to end the way this did. I'm proud that I have battles all the time that are as rival this war story's competitiveness.
  11. Ain't no sunshine or rain

    I' ll try surf over rain dance, but ice beam is necesary to to reliably revenge kill things and 2hko celebi. Giga drain on celebi opens me up to toxicroak and conkeldurr.

    Hey man I see your new like me. I'm not trying to be a jerk but you should learn more and read about a thread before you post it in. Like the next best thing. The purpose of that thread is to find new sets, not standard

    I mean you add descriptions of why you chose a pokemon and you use the moves. Also how each of your own pokemon work well with each other, like how one takes care of another's counter, Etc.
  15. Gen 5 The OU Viability Ranking thread

    I see you still have no response I'll help you. Lucario is incredibly potent but the problem is that it requires so much support to get going. Yes there are pokemon like this in a rank but the problem with Luke is that he has a hard time setting up. The meta has alot of bulky things that are...
