Comp. Pokemon Thread MK2: Let's Go Back To Kanto Like Everyone Wanted!

I stopped playing smash after melee as the game got stupid. Especially that stupid as fall mechanic in Brawl smfh

So is there a way to get the Pokemon event-based Mega Stones yet? I did both events, but I still don’t have/know how to get the beedrillite/mawilite/pidgeotite yet.

Also, does anyone have a spare female multiscale Dratini?

should just be a mystery gift i think, i’d check serebii

I heard they wouldn’t be out til may. Only way to get mawilite and beedrilite is to have participated in that event from last month but they haven’t gave them out yet to my knowledge

Question for a friend

A friend of mine wants to know does Adaptability double stab z moves? Example is porygon z using normalium z for hyperbeam. I am sure the answer is no but I am not sure on the mechanics of z moves.

Need some help with my squad.

Incineroar
Intimidate
Adamant Nature
Max Health/Attack
Choice Scarf

Toxapex
Merciless
Calm Nature
Max Health/Defense
Eviolite

Azumarill
Huge Power
Adamant Nature
Max Health/Attack
Leftovers

Mandibuzz
Overcoat
Careful Nature
Max S. Defense/ 128 Health / 128 Defense
Leftovers

Excadrill
Mold Breaker
Adamant Nature
Max Health/Attack
Rocky Helmet

Work in progress (Currently using Nihilego for Toxapex support)

IIRC, Adaptability does boost the strength of Breakneck Blitz.

What meta you trying to use this team in? Casual, smogon ou, vgc, etc?

It should. Z moves are just nukes. Ill look around

If you want to make Merciless Toxapex work you need to make it Modest with max Sp. Atk, otherwise you are 99% better off running Regenerator on any Toxapex. Also Evolite won’t work with it, give it Black Sludge.

Incineroar can’t take hits that well. Dump those HP EV’s into speed if you’re scarfing it.

Max the Health on Mandibuzz for better bulk.

I would put a choice band on that Azumarill instead of Leftovers. Azu’s main job is to hit like a truck, not sit around and eat. If you’re using Belly Drum use a Sitrus Berry. If you need it to take hits put an assult vest on it.

Excadrill and Rocky Helmet don’t really go together. Either use an Air Balloon to dodge ground attacks or Life Orb for Power. Also if you’re having it kill things maybe max the speed instead of HP.

What are your movesets?

Mostly casuals. This squad will not survive OU Smogon.

You’re sure? Because I’ve done a complete sweep a few times with just my Toxapex on Smogon (they weren’t complete scrubs either)

For all my pokemon? Um…hold on.

Ninja Edit:

Incineroar
Flare Blitz

Darkest Lariat
U-Turn

Toxapex

Azumarill

Honestly easiest thing is to make the team in showdown and then pastebin it so It’s easier to read

Dont use that nihilego

Does anybody have a female multiscale dratini they’re willing to part with?

here’s some edits to your team I made. It’s actually all the same pokemon but should be a little more optimized around BD azumarill. It also doesn’t autolose to taunt anymore.

I made excadrill a dedicated lead, it’s able to set up rocks against any team while still hitting hard. Mandibuzz is now dedicated to tanking physical hits and also removing hazards. Foul Play is so that set up sweepers don’t abuse it’s passiveness and so it’s not useless against taunt. Nihilego is your scarfer so you have speed control. I made toxapex the bulky pivot set, it’s able to tank special attacks as long as they’re not tapu koko tbolts basically. Inciniroar is now a bulky offensive pivot. It’s designed to scout and lure (hence the z move). I don’t know if it entirely fits but since this is casual play it should be fine honestly. The team would struggle against stall but again, i doubt your friends are that soulless to play stall. This should be much easier to use than what you had at first. hope this helps.

I’ll just leave this here to see the opinions:

:*

Hell no. Weather Wars(and rain especially) can fuck off straight back into the hell that is Gen V.

If you’re going to cry about Deoxys and Aegislash, then fuck no to goddamn Kyogre and Groudon.

Unban M-Ray Ray.

But ferrothorn can OHKO with power whip if it runs 204 EVs in attack! It must be okay for OU!

Fuck all that, I am just waiting on Hinata to get her byakugan (mega stone) so I can start palming everyone shit in. Been playing Beedrill and its been fun slaughtering all the Tapu but now I need more variety.

Blaziken is now unbanned on Pokemon Showdown.

So what took so goddamned long for them to realize the hypocrisy of that ban?
