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.
Sub SD Tera Flying Boulder (a pretty common set) already wins vs Gliscor, therefore it doesn't work well as a lure.
A smart player won't let Gliscor to be burned by Torkoal either.
Therefore, :glimmora: and :blissey:
This. If Kyurem at some point ends up banned (hopefully not) it will be either because of the Specs or DD Sub Protect sets. Boots is totally balanced and check either offensively or defensively by half of the meta.
Won vs Somalia, GGs:

I was and still am very against unbanning Excadrill in BW, it killed many Pokemon's viability (Sand Rush and Chlorophyll Mons) and didn't even solve the problem of Spikes dominating the Tier. The best course of action would be to return to 2015 Metagame.
That being said, banning Sand Force...
If Primarina is Sub, you are not breaking it with Play Rough either. It's also a common Tera Steel user. Meanwhile, vs Bolt the play is to use Beat Up in order to get the poison, then try to Stall it with Roost. A defensive Mon using inaccurate moves (which don't even do high damage,such as in...
I think that...
1. Moonblast is better than Play Rough. Yes, the Attack is higher, but it's still shit and you would rather always hit and have 30% to drop Special Attack.
2. Beat Up outclasses Toxic. 6 hits if I don't remember wrong is 88% of poison. Poison immune targets switch equally well...
As long as Waterpon and Dondozo are in the Tier, BD Azumarill has no future. Band however, paired with Volturn support can still be a competent breaker, since it regained Knock Off to cripple foes it can't break (like Dozo). Doesn't even need Rain, though certainly appreciates it.
Dark type is the evil type. The type of Mons who cheat. The type that uses obscure, unknown strategies. The type that pretends to be weak before surprising with some dirty trick. Today we are going to do just that.
:sneasel: No item. Moves: Thief, Counter, Snatch, Focus Punch. Dark type with a...
Got the reqs using a (very weird) Stall, 37-6 result. None of the 6 loses were to Volcarona, which is not surprising, Stall is the one style that pretty much always autowins vs Volcarona. Therefore, my run is not to be taken relevant to the discussion. Personally, I like Stall being a good style...
