Theme Tour LXIX: Growing Pains

Recommended Posts

Alright so this week's theme tour will be pretty simple. No crazy rule. Your team must consist entirely of pokemon who have 3 evolution stages' middle stage. e.g. Ivysaur, Charmeleon, Wartortole, Herdier, etc.

*The item Eviolite is not allowed.

1st place will win 1000 rupees.

Since I was busy and did not give ample notice for this tour it will be held Sunday at 6 PM EST. We look forward to having you.

Bruh.

You have Chansey and Porygon2 in this mix and you are concerned about yung tweety burd.

I think we should start there first. owo

no eviolite gets rid of chansey's soul and pory-2 is pretty passive unless someone is crazy and runs download specs hyper beam

Porygon2 has a BST of 515 with great mixed defenses, a really nice SpA, and a great move pool including recover. That is in no way passive. Meanwhile Chansey will take any special hit in this meta with ease and wish pass full hp to literally anything else on your team. It's better here than in OU.

Chansey isn't actually too bad a choice. Hell look at this here calc: 252+ Atk Gurdurr Drain Punch vs. 252 HP / 252 Def Chansey: 500-590 (71 - 83.8%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

It lives a friggin STAB Drain Punch from Gurdurr. Not to mention this piece of shit: +2 252+ Atk Fletchinder Acrobatics (110 BP) vs. 252 HP / 252 Def Chansey: 583-687 (82.8 - 97.5%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

It can take that, use wish and switch. Unless you have rocks up (which even if you do you still may not kill it) it's not going down. Chansey is a mutherfucking beast here. Even without Eviolite. Yes. This is calced without eviolite. This is also calced assuming chansey is not a defense + nature. Chansey will be a king of this tour, just watch.

...not that im participating in this, but that doesnt mean much since it would still give your opponent a chance to do something, whether set up or spam a stab move. chansey cant do anything offensively to gurdurr or fletchinder, assuming they're at a good amount of health. that gives them plenty of opportunities to set up and prepare for a sweep.

that said, if you're banning eviolite from being used, then i agree on not allowing fletchinder in this, just to make it more balanced and allow more diversity.

You bring up a good point. Unless Chansey gets in a free switch, it won't be eating any physical hits... Plus set up spam is a thing. Chansey is going to be a situational mon imo... Ban Fletchinder? Maybe? Is that a yes? I heard a yes, Fletchinder is banned end of story
