Mega-Lucario is a pretty solid counter to Mega-Kangaskhan. It starts off with Inner Focus to avoid flinching from Fake Out, it resists its Normal STAB and Sucker Punch, and with Timid or Jolly Mega-Lucario investing 164 EVs in speed it can be guaranteed to outspeed Mega-Kangaskhan. To top it...

http://nuggetbridge.com/events/ Your guess would be correct, it's really not worth trying to use Garchomp's meager Special Attack for Draco Meteor when Dragon Claw already hits hard enough. Protect with Adamant or Jolly would definitely be the better option.

Entry hazards aren't really a threat in the VGC metagame. Since you only have 4 Pokémon in-battle and the battles themselves last around 5 turns or less it is very unlikely you'll see it. I wouldn't say it's something you need to prepare for. As for Taunt, a Mental Herb will eliminate the...

I've been getting more success with Psychic, but only marginally. It really seems down to preference and team planning/balance at this point, definitely slash worthy.

I'm very unsure about running a status move on a Choice set. It can very easily work against you, especially after both opposing Pokémon are burned and switching out is not possible. If anything I'd recommend changing it to Move 3: Thunderbolt Move 4: Focus Blast / Will-O-Wisp (or vice versa)...

Oh, I also forgot to mention, if you want more type coverage with your Trick Room setters (Since the current two are both Psychic type) consider Aromatisse. It's pretty reliable and it has some great support moves like Heal Pulse and Aromatherapy along with Fairy-type coverage. Although Slowking...

Generally having at least 2 things that work outside of Trick Room is a safe option. You also have to consider Pokémon that are slow that will benefit from Trick Room, but don't necessarily need it. For example: In VGC 2013 Metagross loved Trick Room but didn't really need it to function...

In terms of explaining it, if you mean the rules there is the VGC 2014 Rules thread. Check the spoiler in the thread showing the fully evolved available Pokémon and pay attention to the bolded ones as those are the things you're most likely to see. I'm not too sure on videos, I know...

Don't forget to also consider Muddy Water on Blastoise. It's easier to work with since it won't hit teammates. Also if you're doing that with Mamoswine then keep the Expert Belt. Kind of a shame we don't have an Ice Gem right now though, blame Gamefreak for that. Anyway, Mamoswine is fine, I...

(Color coding it to keep it as concise is possible) I think Blastoise would be better off with Muddy Water or Surf over Water Pulse. His ability may make it stronger, but from my experience spread damage is better and Dark Pulse and Aura Sphere already get boosted anyway so the ability won't go...

I'll just go through and say my thoughts on each set, so you'll have to excuse my poor formatting. That is slightly worrisome to me. Planning a team you should almost always want to have some sort of plan with your team to win. Take for example my last year's VGC team: my general plan is to...

Might want to run Protect over Thunderpunch, it gives more versatility and defensive options. That's just my two cents.

Try Metagross, he's generally considered pretty decently bulky and he can hit very hard with Meteor Mash. Conkeldurr is also another choice with good bulk, just be wary of Flame Orb widdling your health. You will probably have to use Drain Punch, which hits very hard. If you still want to use...

It's cool. Thanks anyways.

Um, I'm not sure who you are but thanks anyways, man.
