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

fuck luvdisc with the mother fucking power of arceus

The one pokemon I would pick, im trying to make a star in my team. My own project.

My pick would be Wigglytuff, Electivire, Moltress, Claydol, Weezing, Shaymin.

Infernoman, you’re doing it wrong. You can’t give him a solid team of decent Pokémon.

You gotta get all the way niche with it!

Oh sure, I can, these pokemon are extremely usable, Leavenny has Sticky Webs bro :rofl:

For the record those are all mons I’ve had experience using against some of the “big, bad” OU and Megas a certain poster fears like he got hit with Scarecrow gas.

Extremely niche and situational, but underestimate them at your peril, especially Leavanny*(fuck an Earthquake)*…

I never said my pics were a team together! Plus If I wanted him to suffer a bit then I would make him use as a TEAM:

Pidgeot, Pachirisu, Lumineon, Vileplume, Beautifly, Relicanth

you actually remembered luminieon was a pokemon, i’m impressed

Don’t sleep on Pachirisu… That squirrel is EVIL.

(Squirrels are innately evil. Why do you think Squirrel Girl is so damn powerful?)

Ugh. I forgot to obviously mention that Sylveon would help against Dragons on an Eeveelution team; I’m still getting used to Fairy type obviously. (Thank you for the constant flow of information and confirmation, @r00ster22 and others.)

Anyway, I think that I’ve amassed enough videos to show off the latest team. I just had 5 matches, 3 of which were quite good, especially the last one. The fourth one I fought was against some asshole who angrily forfeited in six turns when he/she Tricked Oven Dragoon’s (my Rotom-Heat’s) Flame Orb onto his own Togekiss and gave it a Choice Scarf as his opening move before proceeding to make dumber and dumber choices. It culminated in presumably trying to bluff me to switch out Crawdaunt’s possible Aqua Jet with Rotom-Heat when he was going to probably going Knock Off or Dragon Dance instead; I Volt Switched it for the OHKO, after Stealth Rock, and sent Sigma (Skarmory) back out since the rest of his team was either vulnerable to Taunt or Brave Bird and couldn’t do much back.

Needless to say, even without the confirmation of a homophobic mini-rant, it wasn’t surprising that someone named “y0u already l0st” or some such was an arrogant asshole who can’t handle losing and at a no-stakes (video) game at that:

As said before, the team theoretically gets its ass handed to it by Gravity, though that almost never shows up and I think I’ve had it used against me all of once. Still, I’m tempted to switch No-Volt Man-o-war to Vouyer Sunflower (Celebi) or something with Wish since I don’t really need Rapid Spin outside of Oven Dragoon. Besides that, Stealth Lizard may need slightly more initial Attack, but considering its bulk saved my ass against Mega Charizard X just now, I’m currently reluctant. I otherwise rather like this team.

Probably going to back to testing out the rain team now that I completely overhauled it. That or try to screw around in Ubers even though it seems like most of the matches I’ve watched of it have people being utterly incompetent for varying reasons–I’m saying this not because of pokemon choice for fun, but because of ineffectual tactics used even with the strongest of the strong.

I see your claims and raise you Trubbish.

(But, yes, fuck Luvdisc. I’m still confused as to why Alomamola or whatever isn’t a direct evolution of it like I thought it was for a while since I wasn’t around for Gen V. Such a waste… [Just like love itself.])

Other than Landorus I, I don’t think I’ve seen gravity used at all in OU. Talonflame and Azumarill make that set a heck of a lot less viable, though.

talonflame is OHKO’d by earth power after gravity and can’t OHKO with brave bird
azu gets 2HKO’d by earth power and only OHKOs with waterfall

they hurt but they definitely make it that much less viable

Hitmonlee and hitmonchan

Or

Nidoking and Nidoqueen

Lol Shofu got totally randomed out in this one. This coban guy showing why predictable smogon sets make for easy pickings.

I mean using different sets has never been something anyone has looked down upon. The base sets are there to show you where you should start and then tailor it there for your team. I just mainly use base sets because I change my team a lot. His actual team was full of solid as hell pokemon although a dark pokemon would tear that team to shreds holy god.

Bisharp in general would I think.

Crawdaunt,Haunchkrow,Houndoom,Milotic,Venusaur,Manetric :).

crawdaunt venusaur and manetric are top OU users

Fuck this fake ass Pikachu Fairy-type wannabe :arazz:.
