Ubers Alomomola [QC 3/3] (GP 2/2)

Status
Not open for further replies.


Overview
########

Alomomola is an interesting option for stall teams that need a Wish passer. Unlike most Wish passers in Ubers, Alomomola checks physical attackers, such as Ho-Oh and Extreme Killer Arceus, instead of special attackers. It also has a pretty good defensive typing, as Electric- and Grass-type attacks are uncommon in Ubers. Unfortunately, Alomomola has zero offensive presence, meaning it's setup bait for almost anything carrying Taunt, Substitute, or Refresh. This means it can only fit on stall teams that can provide cleric support and don't mind Alomomola's lack of offensive presence. Alomomola also cannot take special attacks well at all, meaning it is forced out against mixed attackers.


Kindhearted Fish
########
name: Kindhearted Fish
move 1: Wish
move 2: Protect
move 3: Toxic
move 4: Knock Off / Scald
ability: Regenerator
item: Leftovers
evs: 248 HP / 252 Def / 8 SpD
nature: Impish / Bold

Moves
========

With a monstrous base 165 HP stat, Alomomola is capable of restoring most of its teammates to full health, even in a tier where many Pokemon have large HP stats. Huge Wishes are extremely beneficial for Pokemon without reliable recovery, such as Ferrothorn and Primal Groudon. Protect allows Alomomola to safely receive its own Wishes and scout for Choice-locked moves. Toxic cripples threats Alomomola is supposed to check, such as Rock Polish Primal Groudon; Alomomola can then attempt to stall them out. Toxic also cripples overeager special attackers that switch in to prey on Alomomola's terrible Special Defense stat. Alomomola has two quality options for its last slot. It can opt to run Knock Off, which can 2HKO Mega Gengar and cripple opposing walls such as Ferrothorn, or can attempt to burn the foe with Scald. Knock Off is generally preferred, as it offers further team support by removing potentially dangerous items such as Life Orb.

Set Details
========

Alomomola's EV spread is very simple: maximize HP and Defense to tank hits from Ho-Oh and other physical attackers as well as possible. If running Knock Off, use an Impish nature, but if you opt for Scald, use a Bold nature. Rocky Helmet is an option over Leftovers to deal passive damage to Pokemon such as Mega Salamence, but in conjunction with Protect, Alomomola has an easier time taking on Primal Groudon and Choice Band Ho-Oh with Leftovers recovery.

Usage Tips
========

When facing an offensive team that lacks a cleric or a status absorber, it's advised to use Toxic liberally. This is because these teams are likely to hard switch into special attackers such as Xerneas and Primal Kyogre to try to take advantage of a predicted Wish. By using Toxic a lot, you prevent offensive teams from seizing momentum. However, do try to heal your teammates with Wish when the opportunity arises. Against more defensive teams, Knock Off becomes incredibly useful, as you can rob enemy walls, such as Lugia and Ferrothorn, of their Leftovers. You will also find more opportunities to pass Wishes to teammates. Alomomola dislikes all status, but hates Toxic in particular, so if a foe does manage to land a Toxic on it, have a cleric heal it as soon as possible. Finally, take advantage of Regenerator by switching Alomomola into Pokemon that cannot threaten it, such as Mega Sableye, when it starts to lose health.

Team Options
========

Ferrothorn is a great partner for Alomomola, as it resists both of Alomomola's weaknesses and checks Primal Kyogre while Alomomola provides huge Wishes and a check to Ho-Oh in return. Clefable is another viable teammate for Alomomola, as the Calm Mind set stops Geomancy Xerneas and most Calm Mind Arceus formes. Clefable can also use Heal Bell in the event Alomomola is afflicted with a status ailment. Alomomola appreciates Pursuit support to help deal with Mega Gengar; Aegislash and Chople Berry Tyranitar do a good job of this. Finally, Primal Groudon partners well with Alomomola because it can check Xerneas, Primal Kyogre, and Electric-types such as Zekrom.

Other Options
########

Alomomola can use Healing Wish to completely restore a teammate's health, but it is hard to justify using this move when Wish is far more consistent for stall teams because it can be used more than once. Magic Coat punishes status and entry hazard users, but is gimmicky and can easily be played around once it is revealed. Refresh can be used to heal off status, but cleric support is preferred because Refresh is extremely hard to fit on Alomomola. Finally, Mirror Coat can be used to surprise special attackers. An EV spread of 120 HP / 165 Def / 232 SpD with a Calm nature can be used to guarantee that Alomomola can survive a Draco Meteor from Timid Latios after Stealth Rock damage and OHKO Latios back with Mirror Coat. Be aware that the significant Special Defense investment needed to make Mirror Coat work detracts from Alomomola's ability to check Ho-Oh and other physical attackers.

Checks & Counters
########

**Shaymin-S**: Shaymin-S easily OHKOes Alomomola with Seed Flare and doesn't mind Knock Off or Scald much. Shaymin-S can also use Substitute on a predicted Toxic.

**Zekrom**: Even though Zekrom's Choice Scarf set cannot OHKO Alomomola with Bolt Strike, Zekrom can easily spam Volt Switch for momentum, which will severely damage Alomomola if it stays in.

**Electric and Grass Arceus**: Both Electric and Grass Arceus defeat Alomomola courtesy of their typing, although they must be wary of switching in on Toxic.

**Substitute and Refresh Users**: Pokemon that have Substitute or Refresh will easily set up on Alomomola due to its lack of offensive presence. This includes Pokemon that Alomomola would otherwise be able to check, such as Silk Scarf Extreme Killer Arceus.

**Mega Gengar**: Mega Gengar can trap and remove Alomomola with its powerful special attacks, although it is 2HKOed by Knock Off before it Mega Evolves.

**Taunt**: Taunt users such as Mega Mewtwo Y and Darkrai can shut down Alomomola by preventing recovery and stopping Toxic spam.

**Powerful Special Attackers**: Strong special attackers will quickly decimate Alomomola in the event that it stays in.

All you need to do is put Checks & Counters into this format:
Checks & Counters
########

**Magic Bounce**: Pokemon with Magic Bounce hard counter hazard-laying Smeargle. Due to its complete lack of offensive capability, Smeargle is unable to do anything to Magic Bounce users. However, note that they may be unable to stop a Baton Pass user in a heads-up match since Shell Smash will make Smeargle faster than other

**Hazard Removal**: Since Smeargle is typically KOed early in the match, Rapid Spin and Defog can eliminate entry hazards place by Smeargle at a later time and completely undermine it's efforts. (Defog is guaranteed to remove hazards)

**Taunt**: Faster Pokemon with access to Taunt are the best answers to Smeargle. They're capable of preventing Smeargle from doing anything of note (though they should be wary of Magic Coat), and can often force Smeargle to switch out or Struggle.

**Grass-types**: Grass-type Pokemon hold the distinction of being immuneto Spore, and as such, cannot be set up on. This makes them capable of limiting Smeargle's hazard laying, preventing it from inflicting Sleep, and forcing it to use its Focus Sash early in the match. However, as always, Smeargle can still Baton Pass at least one boost, so more defensive Grass-types may not be effective.
other than that this is ready, but that needs to happen before the third check unfortunately. This is a very well done analysis otherwise.

Overview
########

Alomomola is an interesting option for stall teams that need a Wish passer. Unlike most viable Wish passers in Ubers, Alomomola checks physical attacks instead of special attackers. Its outstanding HP stat and excellent ability in Regenerator make it a quality check to some of the most threatening physical attackers in the tier, such as Ho-Oh and Extreme Killer Arceus. It also has a pretty good defensive typing, as Electric and Grass type attacks are uncommon in Ubers. Unfortunately, Alomomola has many flaws. First of all, it has zero offensive presence, meaning it's setup bait for almost anything carrying Taunt, Substitute, or Refresh. This means it can only fit on stall teams that can provide cleric support and don't mind Alomomola's lack of offensive presence. It Alomomola also cannot take special attacks well at all, meaning it is forced out against forcing it out vs. mixed attackers. Support it well, and Alomomola will prove to be a valuable member of your team.
