Even with these so-called "counters" in play, momentum remains on the side of the Roserade player. A sleeping Snorlax w/ Rest Talk, while better than a sleeping pokemon without rest talk, is still much worse off than if it hadn't been sleeped as sleep talk is very unreliable, and potentially...

As kokoloko pointed out, what's really ridiculous about Roserade is its offensive set. The spiker set, while effective at its intended job, is not nearly as ban-worthy imo. Offensive Roserade's power lies in Sleep Powder, which is by far the most broken thing in the current metagame. With the...

As you said, not the most exciting battle, but it was well-written. I enjoyed it.

I don't think Moltres should be S Tier. S Tier is for Pokemon that need little or no support, and Moltres doesn't qualify for that, as to use him at his best, you need to spin rocks away, possibly run a Taunt lead to stop early rocks, etc. If you don't cover rocks for him, then he's just plain...

UU

What? That's incredibly false. 252 Adamant CB Aqua Jet v 273 Hp and 156 Def: 65.93--78.02%

I wonder if Donphan would have any chance at being a good Rock Polish sweeper. I doubt it, too many bulky Grass and Waters in UU, and Azumarill's Aqua Jet.

SYSTEM ERROR is me.

I do wonder, if people hate stall so much, if anyone has tried a plain old LO Swords Dance Blaziken? Looks to me like it could just OHKO its way through an entire stall team after setting up. The only iffy thing is Hitmontop, not sure how much +1 Flare Blitz or Superpower would do. Also not...

Don't write off Donphan's Ice Shard so quickly. UU's current #1 Pokemon is weak to Ice and has garbage physical defenses.

You must not've played UU in the last month, Shaymin was taken out. Hopefully it's not coming back. Personally I think Donphan and Dugtrio will be great additions. UU is full of priority which will hinder Dugtrio's effectiveness, for example Arcanine's LO Extremespeed will OHKO with SR...

I do actually wonder whether Dugtrio will harm stall more or offense more. Here's some popular offense/balance Pokes which I see as being reliably trapped or revenged by Choice Band or Life Orb Dugtrio...... Roserade--Against min Hp variants, Jolly LO Duggy has about a 2/3 shot to cleanly OHKO...

If you're referring to the debate that jrrrrr (I think that was his original username, and I don't wanna actually call him Gay Dolphin) is basically having with himself about Honchkrow's superior typing, then you're right, what I said is totally insignificant because it has nothing to do with...

With its big brother out of the picture, Absol has jumped from 31 to 11, a solid 20 places, nearly breaking the top 10. Meanwhile: -_- Rotom has inexplicably jumped from 41 to 19, an ever bigger jump than Absol, even though one would imagine it to be less useful in the post-Crobat...

I don't really see how I was missing the point, your statement was very clear: the fact that it can actually take a hit with that huge 100 base HP make it much more reliable The damage calculations were quite obviously relevant to the point that I was making, namely, that Honchkrow's higher...

I wouldn't. 5% is 5%, it's not anything more than what it looks like, it's not often going to make a significant difference. I ignored that stuff because I have nothing to say about it, and also because you ignored it in your original post on the subject, which I was responding to. My post...

Yeah, only about half use it cause it's only slightly more than half as powerful as Honchkrow's Drill Peck, I agree that the Ground immunity and Flying STAB are pretty valid points. Personally I don't think it's a big enough difference to warrant one being banned and the other being considered...

Well, judging by the fact that someone is still referring to Honchkrow's defenses as "much more reliable," I see that I clearly need to haul out more evidence with regards to that, so, here we go: Timid Scarf Rotom T-bolt v Absol: 75.37% average Timid Scarf Rotom T-bolt v Honchkrow (if...
