    AAA Almost Any Ability

    The major issue with Ice Scales, and we've seen this with play out with both Fur Coat and Ice Scales for years, is it's not about having a nice special wall that can play its role super well. It's about offensive or set-up mons who use Ice Scales to make it unbearably difficult to revenge kill...

    Metagame Frantic Fusions (New resources @ Post #387)

    I probably agree that Good as Gold is broken with the right team. I just haven't seen that team yet as not many people are running it on ladder. It'd probably look like Spikestack + Ghost that can tank Tusk's hits + GaG user in some capacity to beat non-scrappy spin teams. Figured I'd post...

    :Landorus-Therian::Blastoise: Used a fun defensive regen core to top the ladder. Rocks + Spin + 2x momentum. Switch ins to tusk (and gknot to pressure!), sneasler + plenty of special hitters. Threats to the core that you want to patch up: OGERPON-WELLSPRING IS A BAD BAD MON (for this...

    Topped the ladder in large part due to my teams being able to deal with one VERY prevalent core. If you're building a team that's remotely balance or offensive in the current meta, you need to have two important things: An anti-HO measure and more importantly a pokemon that beats Clod+Alo cores...

    Ngas in a meta that's entirely about the dispersal of abilities to non-native pokemon is inherently anti-meta (in the worst sense) and unfun. It's also broken so that's three reasons it should go

    forced? Idts, there's AV regen and no damp rock does way more against Wake than anything it gets from the DLC. Also it's just me, but I'm willing to bet Empoleon is a top tier mon anyway. Roost Water/Steel type is incredible

    Clefairy could probably run water absorb and be a usable Walking Wake switch in...also more importantly, Empoleon is back, so Wake just found its answer
