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

this looks like an obvious bro rape scenario martian watch out

Do I need to get my match done by tonight or is this fine @Bious?

Cutoff is Sunday, so you’re good.

Could you post your FC Princess Evee? Mine’s here.

0103-9849-2120

1650-2244-5010’s mine.

I’m gonna add you, since having more Friend Safari’s is never a bad idea.

I think I get it, but I’m still confused… Martian trolling?

So, the same hacker who “found” the redacted Mega forms finally revealed more info about them.

[details=Spoiler]- Mega Latios is Dragon/Psychic with the ability Adaptability

  • Mega Latias is Dragon/Fairy with the ability Multiscale[/details]

those are going to make people pull their hair out, especially latias, dragon/fairy is a nasty typing

They don’t have items, though. No Berries, no Specs, no Sashes, NO SCARVES. Which limits a lot of what they can do. We also don’t know the stat spreads.

Much like everything else that “broken” on paper, they’ll be beatable.

Also no Soul Dew.

I saw the humor in your statement, out of context. :rofl:

okay, i’m not saying they’re going to be broken as we have no idea yet but just looking at their typing, abilities and the moves they got in the past, latias is going to be really fucking good

so multiscale gives a 50% boost to both defenses when at full health, that’s awesome especially when this thing has quite possibly THE BEST DEFENSIVE TYPING IN THE GAME

so looking at it’s past defensive stats, it has 90/90/130 defenses, so being generous with the boosts, we could be looking at something with 90/110/150 defenses that has multiscale AND is resistant to fire, grass, water, electric, dark, fighting, bug and immune to dragon while only being weak to ice, fairy, steel, and poison

especially when it’s no slouch offensively, has access to roost/recover, basically any non-hazard support options, etc

this thing is going to make people cry

latias has adaptability and draco meteor, and with mega boosts, that’s probably going to be around 170 base SpA, so a base 260 draco meteor coming off of a base 170 SpA (remember, i’m being very generous) it going to plant holes in opposing pokes

i’m not saying they’re going to be broken, i’m just saying that these things are going to be ridiculously good

megagengar is broke

sigh To hopefully defuse the stupid shouting matches, I’m just posting a random Shofu video. Why? Because if nothing else it’ll get people to stand still for 10 minutes. Idek if Phantom hasn’t already posted this before.

A good showing of how having multiple Mega Formes causes…shenanigans.

If it’s broke, how could it be fixed? Removing Shadow Tag or lowering it’s Base Speed?

removing shadow tag, lowering it’s base speed would only make it slightly less broken

if it didn’t have shadow tag, it would be like giving regular gengar a damageless life orb

removing shadow tag would absolutely fix it, that’s literally all that makes it broken. Trapping moves make pokemon amazing, dugtrio is a piece of crap but is absolutely usable because of arena trap, and arena trap isn’t even good(completely ignored by a lot of stuff). Heck I’ve used probopass in OU because Magnet pull makes it amazing. You could slap shadowtag on basically anythinig in the game, no matter how weak/retarded(looking at you wobbufett), and it goes into OU(heck wobbufett was UBERS). They took something that was already a dominating force in OU, made it STRONGER, and gave it the best ability in the game. Even gothitell is pretty good and its everything is pretty bad.

Hopefully this will get addressed when Pokebank comes out… There had better be a crap load of new content that comes with it too.

Btw, when does Round 2 start, @Bious?

I said I could start it early since everyone except Martian and PrincessEevee have fought; someone would be forced to wait for them though.
