So it's just a subjective thing, rather than something the community agrees on? I seriously am just questioning everything I've ever learned in the 19 years of playing this game. :pikuh: :row:

Can someone explain to me how to categorize a team style? I'm seriously doubting if others are actually miscategorizing teams, or if I'm actually a complete moron. I've had someone call this team Bulky Offense, when it's built to be more Hyper Offense (the only Pokemon that are bulky is the...

Unironically I've been off and on using AV Hamurott with the typical sweeper setup (albeit with Flip Turn, Aqua Cutter, and Sacred Sword over Knock, Jet, and Shell.) It puts in a fair bit of work most games.

Tusk's 4MSS isn't something new, at least not to me. I religiously run offense utility Tusk and find myself in the dilemma of "Okay, I have EQ, CC, Spin... Do I carry Knock, Rocks, or Taunt?" Usually I'd take Knock since back then Knock wasn't a TM and very few mons had it. Now I can freely slot...

Thank you. Once I get a moment from this game I will 100% look over those.

I'm the opposite, I find myself needing to think or losing to random junk. Especially Tera Steel on a Toxic.

Okay, that's fair... but I'm looking for the community's reaction to it, since most of the discourse around it is related to hazards and hazard control. Tusk used to be tier king, then Gambit took its spot, but Tusk is still good. Just because Gliscor answers Tusk to such a good degree doesn't...

Legitimately, I want to see two high ranked OU titans build teams that have Gliscor but no Ghold on it just to see how the community feels about Ghold being gone, but Gliscor remaining. Ghold is the stranglehold of the hazards metagame, and it would be vastly improved with it gone. Yet everyone...

Oh look that idiot is back. Been keeping an eye on this as DLC1 dropped. Been seeing a lot of... Interesting comments here. Thought I'd ring in my two-cents as a garbage player from the outside. Tera - While I enjoyed Tera as a mechanic pre-DLC1 (and moreso pre-HOME), I'm finding that with a...

Yeah, no. Honestly, playing ladder isn't any fun at all, and playing on cart isn't any fun anymore either between all the degenerate sleep spammers and Little Timmies running around with their hacked Ubers teams. I think I'm going to be leaving Pokemon now. Best of luck to, well, most of y'all...

I'd like to add something on top of this: TechTop will be coming back. TechTop is actually a threat to a large number of common threats with BP/MP/Sucker/Fake Out shenanigans. It'll be in DLC 2 as opposed to 1, but Top could maaaaybe see some fringe play, especially with Tera Steel. 252+ Atk...

The problem with Gallade is that while you have a great Attack stat of 125, your Speed and Defense hold you back at 80 and 65 respectively. I prefer Adamant Agility over Jolly SD, and Jolly Double Dance so that you actually have options and don't die to Dengo or similar stonewalls to...

Just run Adamant Gallade with Agility, Sharpness, and Night Slash to beat Ghold. Item gets freed up to whatever you want (I prefer EBelt, but LO can work too.) 252+ Atk Expert Belt Sharpness Gallade Night Slash vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Gholdengo: 307-362 (97.4 - 114.9%) -- 81.3% chance to OHKO <--...

So, we all know the typical Glimmoras (Glimmorae?), Sash, Rocks, 3 Attacks. Or if you're me, you sometimes run into the Phys Def Rocky Helmet set. Now I want to look into a very niche, yet potentially devastating set for Glimmora; Rock Polish 3 Attacks. The aim of the set? Either sweep down an...
