SRK Competitive Pokemon Battling Thread: Logoghoul and White Shadow Win! Bye Gen 6!

Why people gotta bring Megas into the UU beta?

Especially CharY. Thats just…the thirst for wins is real. Gotdamn.

why you even play UU

I’m on now.

Do you remember who all was on my team last time though? Lol. It was Greninja, Delphox, Espeon, Sableye, Swampart and…who else? :confused:

how the fuck did charizard make it to UU this gen? it’s definitely above the threshold this gen.

i know i know!!

it begins with s and ends with smogon

Because sometimes I just don’t want to deal with Genesect and Rotom-W all the time. Also, Kfleki can be avoided entirely (Liepard is a thing though, but he’s frail enough that you can play around him. He doesn’t have that annoying Steel typing).

Sigh. This is really bothering the shit out of me. I knew what I was getting into when I went into OU with my gimmicky teams, so I didn’t complain much (unless it was about Klefki or Genesect or Deoxys) but this…my salt meter is about to break.

klefki isn’t even that bad, all you need is a bulky ground that isn’t garchomp and you win, seriously (since i’m assuming parafusion is what you’re worried about)

the dualscreens and spike sets are far more threatening to your team

You had gyarados

Welp. I’m taking myself back to OU. This is ridiculous.

Edit: @po pimpus

What was that set for Hitmonlee you were talking about? I’m up for trying it.

Now you see the issue.

In the end, the only thing going away from standard play will do is take away more options that you can actually use. Escaping from Genesect isn’t everything.

Welp I lost my match.

Don’t collectively gasp all at once, now. :coffee:

GGs Martian. I stuck to the same team since we had about 18 hours in between matches.

Yeah, I just forgot who was on the team I used against you the first time lol.

Wanna do some singles battles? A quick first to 2?

Edit: if not it’s fine. I’m breeding chimchar.

Yeah, let me change my team a little.

Dat Hyperbeam miss though.

Holy fucking jeebus.

Edit: And then dat Toxic read.

Edit edit: And THEN dat first try Ice Beam freeze…:confused:

Edit edit edit: And then dat SECOND Toxic read :sad:

I still can’t disagree with this more. As long as you hit yourself in the confusion once per swagger you are going to lose to swag key if you switch a ground type in on swagger or substitue(which unless your team has something immune to confusion are the moves it should always use). you need a bulky ground with lum berry and even then if you get unlcuky you still lose.

Also I’m back, but sounds like to late for the rotation tournament?

I had that game lost. I predicted scald and killed greninja. If you stuck to ice beam I surely lost

Dusclops was doin work! :tup:

Pain Split is nuts with his ridiculous defense+Eviolite.
