Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
I made a post a few pages ago specifically highlighting the defensive set ive been running and it cant be highlighted enough, yeah its offensive sets are pretty meh compared to other dragons but they do exist and can put in work but the defensive set just does so much work. Eq doesnt trigger...
:Garchomp: Garchomp A- up to A
Rocky Helmet + Rough Skin is really solid with all of the spinners sans Ice Spinner dons. It can set up rocks on pretty much all of the other hazzard setters and Dragon Tail lets it phase all non-fairys. It out speeds non-scarf cheese stick while still having room...
Im pro Team Preview.
I dont think an out right ban is necessary here, tera doesn't do anything that either z moves or mega didn't already do, we even had a meta with both that was imo one of the best we've had.
Yes, every mon can tera but honestly even now you can reasonably pick out on TP...
Putting them in speed seemed pointless to me and same for atk although a little less so, so def. Seemed the most useful although at 4 total points they really dont help hit any points i can think of so
Edit: unless you mean why not in hp and then its because odd number + divisible by 3 makes...
Honestly i love it, its does however make the choice between the 3 harder imo. Priority makes it fill a niche where it otherwise would be irrelevant. Stab eq + spin means that you can clean up late game if you have to. Priority ice means you can revenge the slew of grounds and dragons in the...
In the case of out speeding Gholdengo specifically or just in out speeding in general yeah i have to agree with you that Treads is the better choice but as far as general bulk and damage output without investment i still slot in Tusk. Yes you definitely miss those points of spdef and spd but you...
Haven't seen this thrown around yet so, Assault Vest Great Tusk. I just kind threw numbers in places for things and suff, 4 evs in atk mean if someone puts sun up you get the buff in atk. With spin being 50bp (when did it get a buff? Rip aging) normal tera actually hits semi hard and has dual...
Ignoring the whole BP having been banned for almost what 10 years now? Dry passing is literally just u-turn/volt switch/parting shot/you get the point. But making it a complex ban sets the expectation that the council will keep making complex bans (which was part of why they didnt iirc). The few...
Honestly i think GF messed up because everyone thought megas and z moves were going to be bonkers and mostly they were fine. The issue i see coming from Tera is keeping the old stabs + the additional. If you lost your old stab and only gained super stab from a type you were originally otherwise...
It's been since ORAS/ S&M since i posted so i apologize if im not quite in the right place/right formatting.
I have two mons/sets I'd like to toss around and see what others feel about them.
Forretress (F) @ Custap Berry

Since its back Weavile is a solid AoA-er its life orb set doesnt hit as hard as band but with the extra flexability it...
