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

I thought the reason Moody was banned was the random factor involved and how it has a chance to increase the evasiveness stat, which goes against the evasion clause?

Thanks for the games, guys… I figured out what’s wrong with my team; it’s way too offensive with no answer for defensive Pokemon and no ability to stall break. A lack of priority, status effects, and bulk is also a huge problem.

Nah, keep using it lol… I want to learn how to kill it :nunchuck:. Besides, I like seeing it. It’s Shiny… O_O

Can that one dragon of yours help with that? Does it learn anything like Roar, or any status inflicting moves? It seems like the perfect candidate for helping you in that regard…it seems to have plenty of bulk behind it. 150 base sp.def O.o

Not really… Only Toxic. Toxic-stall Goodra, anyone?

Goodra can’t learn Dragon Tail?

@LordWilliam1234: I am aware of the reasons for the Moody hate. I just enjoy playing Devil’s Advocate and think its absolutely hilarious that people were losing their shit over losing to Bidoof.

Huh? I just got hit with Confide when I used Protect. Can that even happen?

Yep Confide and Play Nice go through Protect. Fuck a Blaziken.

Oh, it can. I missed that.

It also learns infestation and infestation + toxic kills anything in exactly 4 turns.

IIRC

it’s not that they’re not supposed to win

it’s the fact that they can basically make you not play the game

Just added everybody’s FC. This new meta’s pretty exciting. What do you guys think are good EVs for a Klefki, I found a shiny.

Also, could someone shoot me a PM for the Skype group?

well, what nature is it, but for klefki, i would go for a bulky set, something with max HP and splitting the defenses

… My Blaziken WAS the one that got hit.

It was adamant. I know I should make it bulky, but I’m not sure how to distribute it

252 HP / 176 Def / 82 SpD should do it

but adamant isn’t a good nature for klefki

I love Goodra but it’s tanky stats while play to my strength do it no favor in actually being an attacking threat.

Any serious for Starmie? I’ll thinking of being one but I haven’t had one since gen 2 I think

So Dragalge has Adaptability as its hidden ability. This should be fun to mess with.

what are some counters to gyarados? i feel like his taunt/dd/water move/other move set is pretty good. i guess scouting out the other move is important because it doesnt seem like he gets perfect coverage.

What are some counters to Gyarados?
