You also said this back on the last page:
How does one interpret that? You may not have meant that the way it reads, but I'd appreciate if you didn't get all pissy at people who are simply drawing the most sensible conclusion from your posts. Although that one does seem to contradict with your later posts, but that's not a good thing for your credibility either.
Man, the rest of the argument was about Hariyama's Walling ability. And so, yes IMO, its only selling point as a Wall is being a good LO Blaziken counter.
Taking things out of context is "not a good thing for your credibility either".
Im getting "pissy"(if thats what you want to call "annoyed") at people because its fairly obvious, through my explanations over and over again, what im trying to say. And people just cant take the time to read my posts, yet respond with hostility often saying the exact same thing i did.
For example:
Hariyama in UU is kinda like Vaporeon in OU in that it provides cool resists to junk like Ice and Fire, has huge HP and a bolstered low defense, and has high Attack to hit junk as well as take hits. By your standards, Vaporeon shouldn't be used in OU, because:
Starmie<-Offensive----Vaporeon at its best---Defensive->Suicune
Obviously, since you're using the outmoded "this shit must sweep, this shit must wall" belief, you're being hampered by an extremely old-school belief structure. Newsflash: This is DP, where pretty much every role-based teambuilding style has been rendered obsolete. "I need something that can resist fire/ice/bug/rock/dark attacks and paralyze stuff/break screens/own clefable." Hariyama, fool. Obviously it has a niche in the UU metagame, and it is very good at doing things in that niche. It is a TANK, much like Swampert is a tank in OU. It's meant to take hits and put out hits with equal effectiveness, and it does that VERY well.
This(above) was someone replying to me(below) saying:
It is outclassed as an Offensive threat, and Outclassed Definsively as a Wall (barring Blaziken). Hariyama has its OWN unique role in UU. It is at home with a Bulky attacking set, such as Sub-Punch, Cross Chop/Payback/Restalk, etc. So it is not outclassed in UU doing its OWN role, it is just outclassed on either ends of the spectrum.
Offensive<-Outclassed----Hariyama at its best----Outclassed->Defensive
See why its getting frusterating? They effectively said the same thing as me (look at the diagram ffs, lol).
That is frusterating, to say the least.
It still falls to Focus Punch or Earthquake, and with good prediction, if one has already seen Omastar, there goes your Typhlosion counter.
Actually, Earthquake an Focus Punch dont even 2HKO Omastar.
Scarflosion Focus Punch vs Omastar:
240 Atk vs 383 Def & 344 HP (150 Base Power): 136 - 160 (39.53% - 46.51%)
Earthquake does even less. So, Tyhplosion needs to hit it with HP grass/electric/ground.
And im also one of the people waiting for the suspects to be removed (cough..hurry up....cough...).
