I actually like Balanced hackmons the most because there's a shitton of variation and every team is a gimmick team

Anti-Blissey Gengar is a thing of beauty.

Anti-Blissey Gengar is a thing of beauty.

My Blissey/Chansey counter is actually Simple Giratina with Quiver Dance, Aura Sphere, Judgement (Spooky plate), and Infestation. Quiver Dance boosts baits imposter chansey/blissey and she can't do any damage outside of infestation. And she can't switch out either if I have infestation on her.

I also run a mega mewtwo X with Glare, Arm Thrust, Rock Blast, Water Shuriken, and King's rock for flinchax. Imposter chansey/blissey can get the paralysis on me too but then I whittle them down with paraflinch

I used to run Mewtwo with Searing Shot, Thunder, Blizzard, and Hurricane with Serene Grace, but that was a while ago.

i genuinely love the aspect of creativity that can be applied in pokemon

some of my most interesting victories came from people expecting some super meta OU mon to be a certain way only for it to be my special version of fuckery

chople berry tyranitar actually baited so many people it was my favorite

it also made people super mad at me when they fell for it

wish i saved some of those logs

I always enjoyed just murdering Fairies with Infernape.

They'd switch in their Altarias and their Sylveons, tank a Close Combat, and promptly die after I Gunk Shotted them. Ahh, good times.

also i designed entire teams around shuckle because hes the funniest pokemon alive

OU teams that is

Doesn't Gunk Shot have, like, terrible accuracy?

It hits as much as Thunder, more than Blizzard, and waaaaaaaay more than Focus Blast.

I've always found it to be a reliable move, unlike Hypnosis.

same as stone edge which is the staple rock move

not really much of a problem

Actually Amazing

[Rafflesiac]

That's incredible.

[GhostDIGIT]

Loved the dancing.

[Lycodrake]

Saw it on tumblr first; it's indeed good. And the song goes well with the Pokemon series in general, for those who remember the "sugar song" and "bitter step".

I think most of the best times we've had was really ridiculous set up for a single pokemon to sweep. Like, a friend of ours was being extra toxic so we let him make an Uber team. First guy that went against him, set up and powered up the Slurpuff. Swept through 5 Legendary and a Mega Blaziken. The guy stopped hanging out with us for the rest of the semester. The peace and quiet was heavenly.

[Petrikow]

thats kind of a classic

people who only understand pokemon in the terms of straight up stat-power have missed the entire point

a single whimsicott with zero damaging moves could probably have dealt with that slurpuff better than an entire team of ubers

its so beautiful

[Zenieth]

Breeding becomes routine.

edit: whoops, posted the shitpost version.

[Rafflesiac]

Anyone up for a battle?

Showdown or handheld, either works.

[Skull]

So they revealed the new starters in a trailer.

Can't say I like the look of any of them. Hopefully their evolutions are better.

Litten is tsundere, Rowlet is a ninja, and Popplio is SO HAPPY.
