Thank you anyway! The tournament was on Saturday and it was my first regional. I finished top 4 and so did my friend which we were both very pleased with. PS: I went quick guard and would recommend it for almost all situations as oppose to tauntI prefer Quick Guard on most of my teams to stop things like opposing Talonflame's Brave Bird and Rayquaza Extreme Speed but if you feel you are really weak to Trick Room Taunt can be useful.
It uses SpA EVs, IVs, nature, and stat changes just like any other special attack.Probably a silly question, but does Sp Atk affect Eruption or is it just based on remaining HP? Seeing a lot of P.Dons lately with both eruption and p.blade and they seem to be on the fast-physical end.
I would use this:Any body has any idea about the spread on Arash's Yveltal for his Germany winning team, is it jolly max speed?
Not unless you want to make Kang's Low Kick a 3hko after 2 leftovers and Leech seeds, but that takes a lot of investment and not as useful as being more specially defensive. It also might be possible to make P-Blades a 4hko with leftovers. I think it would be better to just try and fit Intimidate on the team though.What with the meta revolving around heavy special attackers, is there any reason to run Relaxed Ferrothorn over Sassy?
Pokemon such as Mew, Celebi, Jirachi etc... are banned because they're classed as "Mythical Pokemon". Which means that they, conventionally, can only be obtained from events. The idea is speculated to be that one competitor shouldn't have a massive advantage over another because they have access to different events.Hey so I was wondering why the Birds and the Beasts are allowed in VGC and all the other legendaries are not. Can someone explain please?
I don't think there's an official reason, but it makes it a lot easier for people to participateThis question might be dumb, but why is VGC level 50 as opposed to level 100?
I'm assuming you have hyper voice, double edge, and protect as your other moves. It really comes down to what you have mence doing and what your teams needs.What's the best option on mence nowadays? Draco meteor, tailwind, or substitute and why?
The recommended EV spreads are essentially the same regardless of Trick Room. 244 HP / 108 Def / 156 SpD with a Calm nature is nice with Sitrus Berry to make Jolly Mega Kangaskhan's Double-Edge and Modest Primal Groudon's Eruption a 3HKO. If you're not using Sitrus Berry, you can try 252 HP / 156 Def / 100 SpD, again, with a Calm nature, which survives a Helping Hand-boosted Dragon Ascent from Life Orb Mega Rayquaza. If Cresselia is paired with a slower Primal you can shift bulk EVs into Speed to make Cresselia 1 point faster than them to Skill Swap prior to their moving. There's also the possibility of outspeeding base 100s after an Icy Wind.Can anyone recommend a decent EV spread/Nature for a Cresselia in a non-TR team? I'm just kind of winging it with 252 HP / 128 Def / 128 SDef / 4 Spd at the moment...
Landorus-T is generally the top non-restricted answer. Golduck is balls, wouldn't suggest. Lando-I can OHKO offensive Pdon variants, but isn't particularly bulky or reliable. Without Sheer Force it's largely inferior to its Therian form.besides PK and ray, what else can threaten PG??
is cloud nine focus sash gimmick good enough to kill PG??
i am looking for a check/couter to PG that's not a primal or ray/mega ray.
