Being unpredictable isn't something to rely on to succeed. Hammer Arm is commonly used apparently, but won't OHKO everything weak to fighting. especially not Ferrothorn. Also, setting up can be risky, which is why you shouldn't rely on it. And faster than what exactly? This set uses Agility as a crutch, which is not a good tactic. Your new set looks outstanding. I giv 8/8, no b8 m8.

Sorry I meant to say, except for ferrothorn. I made some changes to the teams so I can play better. Alright to give you guys insight on the way I perceive the teams, the rest of the members are as follows:

One team has: Thundurus, Lando-t, R-Wash, Conkeldurr, META and Heatran

The other has: Thun, Lando-t, Keldeo, banded D-nite, META and R-Heat

I see now that the new set is better for Metagross.

Thank you all for your suggestions!

I mean, I always end up having at least one Pokemon that can deal with whatever situation arises. Still, "stall" is a concept that involves an entire team, not a single Pokemon.

You know what I will say. You make it anyway, you will get a fair contribution from me, and you will also privately be the winner of my discontent.

See, I personally absolutely hate basically every type of team except Stall. I find playing against other teams excruciatingly un-fun and find them ever less fun to play

The idea that Stall "takes away the fun" from battle is to me completely backwards. The only fun battles are the ones where stalling is involved

Bar full on PP stalling, because trying to intentionally force people to Struggle is a dick move on so many levels

Hmm. Either Fire or Steel or Ground. I can't decide.

Steel. Hard bady BOI

Poison needs more love.

rough. my condolences.

are you gonna do the Great Grind(tm) for steven as well or

I'm doing it all. Not today tho. Today was a rough day. I'll rest.

iirc stevens levels are FUCKTONS higher than the leagues so especially with wobbuffet your grinding will take forever and a half.

181... there are none for me... so none. and still none even if I take it down by 50. :I ain't I just special?

I am even further out of the loop man.

uh.......

Tomas, I think he's saying physical Keldeo was a big thing in Gen V

I registered on PO the day after B/W was announced, and I left that community when it become apparent there were going to be no Gen 3 remakes in Gen 5. I played every possible tier in the time I spent there. And believe me when I say, physical Keldeo was never a thing. Like, absolutely not, no way, no friggin' chance in hell.

Except they did and it was decently common. I'll give that SpA was still more common due to the better movesets you could have but I saw a good number or Atk Keldeo taking advantage of the ability as well.

make me

hOW dO i Useee,,, PUNKTUATION.???>1!

Wait... I went to read something, and now 639 days have passed? damn, time sure is.... nuts.......

Ok well I gave it my best it's all on you now Etesian.

Thank you for your bravery and support throughout this endeavor, Zim. Whatever Nick may say, you definitely won't be setting off his allergies. Unless you're 50% walnut.

(and that 638 was just a random number. Been punning for a while here and have yet to be banned/promoted/somethinged for it lol)

I'm just trying to give a in game explination

Other then that it would just brake the game and take away the point of gender less pokemon and would make genders pointless outside of breeding

like hukuna said, it wouldn't particularly break the game? and breeding was the only real point for gender anyways, besides divergent evolutions and the occasional cool dimorphism stuff.

MAGNEZONE

Tyranitar does not use AV because it has better items to use. It can work with a scarf and work as a trapper, or with Smooth Rock and set the field for the likes of Excadrill and M-Garchomp. It can also go for lefties if you go full defensive, but definitely not worth giving AV. Conkeldurr and Raikou are much better options. Recovery is not necessary, but good to have. You can stack a wish-passer if you wish (pun intended).

Ass Vest XD

Ass Vest is an alternative to Choice Band on offensive tank TTar sets. It's not especially popular now, but it's still perfectly usable

Really nice  too bad that i died so early btw :/

Sorry, but I had to put El and his "God" in it's place before, so I'm afraid that I've had bad experiences with the First Church of Lord Arceus. I know it's wrong to judge an entire religion from one crazy man, but I don't think I'm ready to forgive it, haha.

That was not our lord! His true life (HP) is unmatchable! We have a cooler church than the order of the Helix, those pagans! Ditto fainted for our sins. Join the church of Team Meteor and ask for Forgiveness!!

ps. Forgiveness is our janitor. She usually comes to work pretty late, so you might need to book an appointment.

Viridian-we're the cool team of underdogs!

That made me instantly like Vinny.

Steel

Sheep you're cool for giving that answer. Anyway, Normal type best type, do it man.

On it

Mmkay, don't know ORAS tutor moves yet

Yes.

After all, i said consider it, not that you should definitely use it.

You should definitely use it owo

Yeah but Politoed is all alone trying to keep rain up. Here there are two weather invokers, one of which is a physical wall while the other is a special one. This is what gives Sand the edge!

Rain has a buttload of Pokémon capable of abusing it, though, like Special Dragonite.

I can tell you know... Rain is barely viable, and I personally don;t think it is at all. You are forced to rely on Politoed... who does nothing but set the rain and... not much else, and then using really weird ways to set rain up other ways. It isn't worth using a team around imo. Certianly more usable than a Sun team... but not much more.

Well, I don't know much about the metagame, but I personally think that Hoopa Confined has a better typing than Hoopa Unbound.

Both typings are bad for defensive play, especially with all that Knock off and U-turn going around.

My train of thought is close to Tomas's bringing Greninja in mind, only this time the speed is not an issue. We will have to see and wait. Note that Greninja was fine till it got Poison Jab and Low Kick, and became an unstoppable powerhouse. I do not know whether Hoopa-u is far from this. Normal Hoopa seems okay.

I personally don't think that you can compare Greninja with Hoopa Unbound. Protean is abusable both offensively and defensively, and Hoopa-Unbound has a whooping 0 resistances, in addition to fairly inadequate speed that diminishes it's sweeping capability, despite it's nuclear offense.
