    Braviary-H is one of the biggest threats in this tier as has been said time and time again by players who are much better at the game than me. However IMO it has a lot of flexibility. The item choice is obvious and Psychic + Hurricane are auto includes, but what about the EV spread / nature or...

    252+ Atk Araquanid First Impression vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Ogerpon-Wellspring: 252-296 (83.7 - 98.3%) -- 75% chance to OHKO after Stealth Rock One argument for physical sets over special on Wet Shelob™️. Can snipe kills on slightly damaged waterpons. Other than that special is probably better lol.

    DLC2 is upon us. Oh the horrors of a fresh set of moves and mons. After about 30 minutes of random testing these are some of my findings. 1: Araquanid with priority is TERRIFYING. I’ve been using this physical set I cooked up but I’ve seen other people on ladder run Tail Glow sets (don’t...

    Ah yes, the Death Star, famously OHKO’d by Luke Skywalker’s proton torpedo Zen Headbutt. But more seriously, Tera Dark fixes that glaring issue (and also adds a damage boost if you run Lash Out over Acrobatics). Additionally, psychic just isn’t a very common or very good attacking type (one of...

    Friends, Romans, country roads take me home, I am back in the kitchen following a brief hiatus and I might be on to something for once. Unburden Sneasler is great in OU (Sneasler flung its Big Nugget!) and so I thought I’d see how it does down here. And boy howdy have I been terrorizing low...

    i’m so hyped for mamoswine in pokebilities. I’ve been having a ton of fun with it over in STABmons (loaded dice bone rush go brrr) and i’ve found that tera grass works really well for a few reasons. first and foremost, thick fat makes it work really well defensively. secondly, giving it stab on...

    this genuinely looks like so much fun I’m using this rn. sash lead is genius- it’s almost impossible to get a tail glow done before you get sniped so that will help a TON. tera ground is great offensively and defensively. what a perfect set. thank you!!!

    hey will gliscor be any good now that snowspam (watch out merriam webster) is less common due to the bax ban? the OM gimmick gives both offensive and defensive sets (see below for both) some powerful tools. personally I’d love to see gliscor rise in popularity for three reasons. one i just think...

    first of all, phenomenal names fentanyl bear made me spit out my chocolate milk. secondly. i’ve played around with this little lad and have come to the conclusion that it is just kinda boring to use lol. more seriously tho, there are too many easy counters. my personal fav is jet punch...

    has anyone actually achieved any success with yanmega? it feels like a noob trap to me lol. I’ve tried it out and it feels… just ok. not good, not bad, just mediocre. but then again it consistently sweeps me even when I have checks, so maybe I’m just bad at the game. the one way I’ve made it...

    wow way to ruin my fun. in all seriousness, this is very much needed thank y’all so much. imo I would target light clay over tails or veil- screens only really become annoying and problematic when they last for too long :)

    matcha gotcha is the most interesting imo. scald giga drain combo? count me in. unfortunately spatking grass types suck. your best choices are wo-chien, scovillain, and appletun. tun might see some usage as a wall using the move, but idk. syrup bomb would be useful in a doubles format, and ivy...

    i never played pokebilities in past gens so i hadn’t even considered clefable as a viable threat, thanks for bringing this to my attention. two very good abilities (and cute charm), great utility, solid spatk- not excited to face this lol. also i loved it when you said “It’s [sic] typing is...

    been playing around with some more gimmicky teams and found smth that is very very fun (when it works); i.e. grassy glide breloom holy shiitake (Breloom) @ Life Orb / Choice Band Ability: Technician Shiny: Yes Tera Type: Grass EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Grassy Glide -...

    AAA Almost Any Ability - Walking Wake is banned!

    wide lens doesn’t work too well with multi hit moves that are not named pop bomb (and triple axle ig) so i’d replace bullet seed and beat up with something like crunch and tidy up/low kick. other than that very interesting set, will def steal this lol

    so my funky lil idea from earlier this month did have some merit after all! i can absolutely see this being an obscene trick room sweeper, if with just LO it OHKO’D PEX (after rocks) WITHOUT SPECS (rhyming is fun)!!! feels like it’s gonna be a phenomenal wallbreaker, very excited to use
