Trickroom is really bad in singles, it takes too much effort to set up.

In doubles its really good.

The best strategy I have for doubles is use skill swap to get rid of slaking's truant.

You know, I think that Mega Evolution might be my favorite mechanic so far, though I haven't played the last couple generations (unless BDSM count) I think it's the most creative mechanic, and I really liked the designs in a way that G-maxing just didn't do for me.

However, competitively, perhaps the new mechanic is best. In that case I feel that Megas come in second for that category.

Oh boy, @dannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnex want to participate in this one?

 

The answer is pokemon, there just is no alternative. Helping hand from every pokemon that can use it plus Choice specs Kyogre's waterspout OHKO's all of the lions, Wolfe actually ran a calculation on it.

There's an event in heartgold and soul silver where Arceus just creates a Palkia, Dialga or Giratina for you.

Primal Groudon could actually just kill all the lions simply by existing, as could any pokemon with Snow Warning as Lions cannot tolerate such heat/cold.

[Just_a_Fan he/him]

good.

but what about fakemon/pokepastas? (EEeEE, Phancero, nucleon, etc)

ok well only 1000 then yeah obviously pokemon would win. pokemon actually outnumber the lions in that scenario which is ridiculously uneven. 

1000000000 lions though

is a lot of lions

I tend to go by the default name. I was already 18 years old when Pokemon came. So, too mature to change the name of my rival.

DP was my first game, and chimchar my first starter. Still go with that guy whenever I can, but I'm a fire guy all around.

Not that surprising IMO. It was borderline broken last gen, with it's main problem being a lack of a good way to hit Dark-types, along with that nasty 4x weakness to Dark. Tera Fairy or Tera Fighting + Terablast solves both of those problems quite handily.

Imma pootis here and watch y'all freak out or something.

[Silver Phantom he/him]

Hi everyone first post about Pokémon, I am actually currently rewatching the Indigo league right now. Anyway what is every ones favorite Pokémon of the following 

Starter 

Fossil

Regional bug type

[Just_a_Fan he/him]

(@The stormfather @Nameless*)

I have an idea: assign fakemon to comp tiers. lol.

idk wherr 2 start.

[The Stormfather He/Him]

I dunno'

some fakemon from fan games are on the competitive website, with full movesets and stats, although their not in official tournaments.

Stats for a new pokemon :

KALADIN STORMBLESSED

Attack : 120

Sp attack : 70

Defense : 80

Sp defense : 95

Speed : 160

Hp : 110

Total : 635

Thought of this in class today, also invented some signatur knight radiant moves and an ability :

Ability : Stormlight holding : When stormlight is activated, the pokemon recovers 1/4 hp each turn. they also get a 1.3x boost to attack and speed.

 

Move : Inhale light : for four turns the stormlight holding ability is active.

Also my baby Meganium is in NU, let's goooooooooo!

Competitive Singles usage chart, it's showing which Pokemon moved between which tiers of competitive play. And Meganium has been notoriously bad in even the bottom tiers since Gen 5, while Terrakion has been a staple in one of the two highest tiers (OU, or OverUsed, or UU, standing for UnderUsed) since it came out.

Thank you for explaining. Now that I understand

NOOOO…. Bastiodon. How could they do that to you

[The Stormfather He/Him]

I'm sad they rose Flutter Mane's tier, since it was a staple of all my OU teams. Really annoying, since having that coverage was insane along with the speed?

I switched it for regieleki w/ light clay and screens, but it doesn't work as good for the team.

[Wierdo he/him]

just completed the ultra sapphire national living dex! Woo- now I'm gonna go play pokemon black or white soon Woo!
