Nice

Probably this. I stole it from someone else, and it hasn't left my party since

Im happy where my current team has gotten me. Went like 10 and 2 today.

Just wish I remembered my passwords for the two different Eb_the_Scholar accounts I had made XD

This is my anti meta pick

#

im tryna test some team members

#

also did entei stop lerning espeed?

astral yoke
#

yes

#

It was originally an event exclusive move, which PIF doesn't have

#

Entei no longer having ESpeed hurt me so much...

proud stump
#

same

astral yoke
#

I do have a replacement, but not having Sacred Fire or V-Create sucks...

proud stump
#

this still puts in work tho

inner jasper
#

Cant decide which is more useful, so here is my anti-setup duo. One for hazards the other for sweepers.

antisetup that cant heal itself effectively

Same role and slightly better stats than with Entei, but sacrificing V-Create or Sacred fire for Flare Blitz sucks

proud stump
#

yeah

inner jasper
#

Yeah that's an interesting one.

Also no Earthquake/Stomping Tantrum

ohh

sullen ore
#

my banded enchomp loved that

fast blade
#

We should petition the devs to have them swapped. Just make Ice the primary type and it would be good considering it's head stats of 123/99/92 are amazing

#

But if you want the ice type you need the body and it's stats for that are 77/72/58

#

It's almost as if it was created for the sole purpose of being bad in this game

sullen ore
#

curse of ice rock type 🧊🪨🧊🪨🧊🪨🧊🪨🧊🪨🧊🪨

astral yoke
sullen ore
#

avalugg-hisui is ice as the primary type, so if it was in then its better stats wouldnt be ice either

#

that typing can simply never be allowed to win

fast blade
#

Cuz it's such a simple fix to make it an amazing pokemon

astral yoke
#

It's not a change.org page if that's what you're expecting

fast blade

That one came to mind pretty early on, the two pokemon have incredible synergy with each other

oh yep

i do0nt think ive versed you

does wobto use choice scarf?

u won anyways

ambi/dragonite has been good so far

proud stump

yeah

#

its a good mon

#

im suprised more people dont use it

true fiber
white oar
#

chansey and blissey are banned from OU

true fiber
#

Ah

white oar
#

way too good a head slot to be balanced

true fiber
#

That would make sense lol

#

Wobbufett?

white oar
#

best HP and solid SpDef is incredibly strong

#

wobbufet passes the bar

opal fiber
#

Wobuffet only has good HP and nothing else

white oar
#

just not popular due to it not having much else

opal fiber
#

So it's allowed

true fiber
white oar
#

typing would be psychic poison

#

thing is weak to ground

#

eh it's solid actually

proud stump
#

tbh chansey > Blissey

#

with eviolite chansey is better

white oar
#

yeah

true fiber
#

Yup

white oar
#

not that it matters

#

both are banned

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

proud stump
#

fr

white oar
#

dont get how blissey gets the ban but dusclops doesnt

#

might be complaining about the wrong issue

#

yeah I take that back

proud stump
#

mid i think we are the only ones running the ambi set

true fiber
#

Poison/psychic or psychic/water for wob

proud stump
true fiber
#

Also shadow tag lul

white oar
#

eh

#

shadow tag is banned

proud stump
true fiber
#

Ah

#

Makes sense

white oar
#

dusclops can only really run one set and ghost isnt phenomal defensively

#

plus knock off means it's p' much over

#

plus with OU's power level it can still be broken due to its lack of recovery

true fiber
#

You get soooo much defense with eviolite tho

white oar
#

feel like blissey, not chansey, should get prospecting for OU tbh

white oar
#

thinking pixilate dragonite and other broken hitters

true fiber
#

Yeah, no hp

white oar
#

that's not what I meant

#

it's that the power level is so absurd that the defense is insufficient to stay alive

true fiber
#

Is there a world where a contrary Tox/Shuckle finds success?

white oar
#

no

#

shuckle is banned

true fiber
#

Ah

wheat anvil
true fiber
#

Shame for that

#

Bug/water is actually an ok defensive typing

white oar
#

true

true fiber
#

Mainly just not too many weaknesses

#

Though they’re fairly common ones

white oar
#

bug steel lol

true fiber
#

How common are screen and such?

#

Cuz this chandelure/dusclops with infiltrator looks kinda tasty to me tbh.

proud stump
#

pretty common atm

true fiber
#

With eviolite

#

Or flame body

#

Instead of infiltrator

#

Makes it pure ghost

#

Main issue is just slow

proud stump
#

true

#

i just reverse sweeped

true fiber
#

But you get a lot of coverage moves

proud stump
white oar
#

dude I havent ran into any

proud stump
white oar
#

huh

true fiber
#

Flamethrower/overheat, shadowball, energy ball, ice beam, charge beam if you really want “boltbeam”

proud stump
#

a couple light screens too

was running an aurora veil thing a while ago

#

dude pre gen 9 hail/snow is so ass

white oar
#

got my ass kicked

true fiber
#

Literally only useful for running blizzard

white oar
#

I had some measure of success

#

but the setter was so weak that I couldn't do enough

#

what's yalls take on the speed boost ban

true fiber
#

Good idea imo

#

Makes speed a non-consideration too easily

proud stump
#

idm i dont use speed boost anyways

white oar
true fiber
#

Which in-turn makes things like scarf useless.

#

So that’s another marginal power creep.

proud stump
#

fianlly back in top 100

#

also how do you tie 💀

true fiber
#

Speaking of speed

#

What’s like a good speed tier to hit atm?

#

Cuz I imagine it’s not power crept as much as S/V is atm

proud stump
#

350-400+

#

wait what mode?

true fiber
#

Ok, it’s just as crept lol

white oar
#

that's fair

true fiber
#

In OU, since that’s what we’re talking about lol

proud stump
#

oh yeah id say that

#

cause alot of scarfs and super fast heavy hitters

proud stump
true fiber
#

I was looking at possibly doing Yanmega with something. Already had Chandelure up.

#

Only 90 speed tho

#

But 135spa

#

Either infiltrator or tinted

proud stump
#

yanmega hydreigon is really good

#

sub qiverdance roost and oblivion wing

true fiber
#

I keep on forgetting about the move availability lol

#

Is that available just on every dark/flying or what?

#

Also, I assume Dark Pulse for last just cuz coverage

#

And either big root or leftovers?

proud stump
#

leftovers

true fiber

This seems decent for the unlimited one.

man I just lost a game to several bad rolls and a 50/50 read

and 4 sleep turns

proud stump
#

damn rip

white oar
#

I hate spore prankster

#

pokemon that lost me that game nearly got oneshot and held on by 5%

#

and the same pokemon who low rolled also slept for 4 turns

#

was not their day

astral yoke
white oar
#

I did have a grass type

#

not really why I lost entirely

astral yoke
#

Here is a list of Prankster Spore counters

  • Have a dark type pokemon (they're immune to prankster)
  • Have a grass type (immune to spore)
  • Magic Bounce
  • Have safety goggles (we all know u guys only care about choice items anyways so i doubt any1 uses it since Prankster Spore isn't very common)
  • Have higher priority (or same priority but higher speed) and hit harder (ESpeed Dragonites and Fake Out Ambipoms)
white oar
#

this turn here

#

switches in

#

barely lives the play rough

#

spores me

#

4 turns

#

this shit made me wanna kms

astral yoke
#

if u see Umbcott, u know it generally has access to 4 possible actions:

  • Prankster status moves (blocked by dark types)
  • Prankster support moves like Light Screen or Tailwind (Umbreon no longer learns Reflect)
  • U-turn / Hard switch
  • Random attack move that will likely do jack shit to you
white oar
#

final turn of the game, was forced to pick between flash cannon and dark pulse

#

the correct button could've won me the game

#

not too sure about umcotts defenses

astral yoke
#

Know your opponents, and choose your moves carefully

white oar
#

not denying it

#

but I was rolling for wake ups

#

because I could one shot and they stayed in for setup

#

eventually I got a pokemon for it

#

just not one I needed out

astral yoke
#

Having a dark type that can setup is really good. Because if your opponent doesn't predict your switch in, u can bring in your dark mon, block the prankster, get a free turn of setup when they u-turn/switch, and then proceed to sweep

white oar
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

series of bad rolls ended my game

#

though I often forget the dark type bit of prankster so noted

mighty knot
#

i wanted to update for a hidden power dark (only special dark move that this fusion has) but #1176786835230437376

sullen ore
#

can you export the set so i can try it

sullen ore
#

smogon auto sets it to 0 if you have no physical moves (so you dont take more damage from confusion/foul play)
but that makes the iv spread invalid for hp dark

#

if u set it to 1 it validates the set

I wonder if it's fine if i get a friend to represent me in the upcoming showdown event?
I'll be overseas on the 16th and might not be able to join

i mean im chill with it

i wouldnt say anyone would be against it

also, i wonder but, stance change just swap atk/sp.atk with def/sp.def or does it work a other way ?

ancient power AintNoWay

astral yoke
# odd kiln ancient power <a:AintNoWay:1038144353308246047>

It runs Serene Grace, so it's 20% chance for omni boost, so it isn't unreasonable. It's also a counter to Sylvern, so if it switches it, it gets a free shot at that boost.
But even if it gets the boost, it's locked to Ancient Power because it's running Choice Scarf... so it's kinda wasted

proud stump
#

im suprised i lasted that long tbh

#

im testing mons mainly atm to perfect my team

odd kiln
#

20% chance to omniboost is unreasonable

#

ur using a 60 bp move off bad spa

#

so 80% of the time its a free turn for the opponent

noble helm
#

If y'all hate ancient power so much, what should i replace it with heehee

odd kiln
#

vcreate

#

or trick

noble helm
#

Trick sounds fun heehee

odd kiln
#

aerial ace does 0

astral yoke
# noble helm What do you think of this team?
  1. i haven't had a chance to test this extensively, but tests so far show it's a powerful ESpeed bot... but nothing else. Its bulk and speed is low that if u run into a ghost type, it's gonna get rekt'd
  2. Standard sweper, up to u if u want to use it, just know that your Boomburst is only 140 BP because it doesn't get STAB or any other boost
  3. Too slow to be an effective sweeper, you're gonna get revenged killed or crippled with will.o.wisp
  4. As i mentioned earlier, Ancient Power is a poor choice because u're using Choice Scarf. Even if u get the Omni boost, u're still locked into ancient power
  5. Not too bad, but careful u don't get taunted
  6. Bulky, but not a threat. All it has is Sludge bomb, and HP kinda sucks

Its speed is only like 309, you're gonna get outspeed by choice scarf sweepers, or even a non-choice-scarfed Sylvern

I JUST SWEEPED 2 POKEMON

#

WITH MY WATER FLYING DRAGON THAT DOES NOT FLY

astral yoke
#

That was a timid and scarfed Boomburst btw
I went ahead and made it timid with Pixie plate, still OHKO

#

Unless the Sylvern is Modest and not scarfed do u outspeed, and even then, your moveset can't kill Sylvern

#

not saying that your mon is trash cuz it can't beat Sylvern

#

I'm saying you're overestimating your Assault vest and not preparing for sweepers that hit hard

noble helm
#

Its still a decent mon

odd kiln
#

copium

astral yoke
#

309 is a speed alot of sweepers with the bodies of Electrodes, Noivern, or are carrying Choice Scarf can outspeed and OHKO u

#

That's why Haxorus fusions usually run Dragon Dance (or Shift Gear)

odd kiln
#

4 atks no boosting abil means easy to wall esp by fairies, no recovery means it doesnt actually switch into anything

#

welp, add that to the bucket list of bugs that shouldn't have existed

mighty knot
#

also, how does stance change works in showdown ?

noble helm
fast elm
#

like it does in game i hope

#

swaps defense and offensive final stats

#

you go into shield forme when you click any protecting move

mighty knot
#

so, this is better stats ?

fast elm
#

like protect, kings shield, baneful bunker, spiky shield

#

yes

mighty knot
#

ok thx

astral yoke
mighty knot
#

but yeah, i could tweak speed so it gain some survivability

#

@astral yoke so like this ?

astral yoke
#

You can give it a go, and if it doesn't work, u can try tweaking it

mighty knot
#

(or they just use legendary that are obviously fast)

#

so yeah, speedy, but not so speedy x)

astral yoke
#

i would assume a Blaziken fusion would be a battle of prediction
Whether they use protect 1st turn to get speed boost, and u don't use King's Shield
Or whether they predict u not to use King's shield predicting their protect, and go in for the kill

#

Blaziken is a physical mon most of the time, so King's shield should help cripple Blazikens if used properly

Anyone can tell me how I would add these stats of my Pokemon into the stats of showdown? I would like to battle a friend with my Pokemon against his Pokemon with exact stats that our Pokemon have in the game.

opal fiber
waxen trench
#

so which row is the stats of my Pokemon ? is it the EV row? And i write there in the first box for HP 57 and so on?

astral yoke
#

To make it fair, you could just give them 0 EVs and full IVs, so that the stats might not be the same, but it'll be "clean"

astral yoke
#

just note that showdown has an error for if u have 0 EVs, as a reminder for u to set your EVs. To fix it, set one of your EVs to exactly 1. It will not increase your stats, and it will let showdown know you're purposely giving your mons 0 EVs

Repost
Event Idea for Sprite Artists.
IF showdown Tournament, but you're only allowed to use Pokemon you've spirited yourself up to 6, and they need to be new.
1 legendary fusion allowed
No duplicate/overlapping mons.
(Ie. You can't have both Charizard/Lucario and Lucario/Mimikuu)
(Possible addition, sprites have to be completed and be approved by a sprite manager before entry to avoid low quality rushed entries)

glacial bane
#

Time to get into pixel art I guess?

astral yoke
#

I'm sure many, and i mean MANY of you are probably too young to know this, but back during showdown's early days, they had alot of random shit. Like some 'mods' or assigned high ranking players were given 'gym leader' titles, and players could get a colored role or something by beating said Gym leader using that Gym leader's same typing (e.g. Beating misty using only water Pokemon)

There were also other random shit, but i could only remember this one, because it was the only one i could beat lol

glacial bane
#

Funny

drifting kite
#

Why did they stop doing that?

astral yoke
#

idk, guess they got more mature? or maybe it wasn't really featured that much?

#

who knows

#

Was more than a decade ago, and my boomer brain has started to rot

fast elm
#

now you aren't allowed to pretend to be a gym leader in lobby i think

astral yoke
fast elm
#

yeah i'm just saying its changed a lot

astral yoke
#

it'd better, it was more than a decade ago lol

fast elm
#

since you can't even ask people to challenge your fake gym team in lobby

drifting kite
#

Can we add a monotype format to IF Showdown?

astral yoke
#

Why don't we actually get showdown to work properly first?

#

before introducing more modes/bugs

drifting kite
#

Fair enough

astral yoke
#

Also helps if we establish a proper meta

scenic wren
#

Ban Evolite

astral yoke
#

the meta the past week has been so god damned erratic

glacial bane
scenic wren
#

Ban Everything

glacial bane
#

Agreed

scenic wren
#

battles are decided by coin flip

drifting kite
glacial bane
#

Huh?

scenic wren
#

#TriangleofFairness

astral yoke
#

I think i might've overplayed/overestimated eviolite

#

it's not ban worthy

glacial bane
#

It's just okay

scenic wren
#

So hows Evolite Chanuckle

astral yoke
#

where it belongs, the trash AG

odd kiln
#

chanuckle sucks

#

shuckle in general is not good in ag

drifting kite
#

I saw a funky Whimsicott/Breloom fusion that had prankster with leech seed, substitute, and focus punch.

scenic wren
#

foreal tho I'm not gonna bother with comp.

#

This is just more impressive to see than anything

astral yoke
#

Can't do shit if it can't spore the target

scenic wren
#

I think once Randbats are launched its gonna get attention from PokeTubers

glacial bane
#

Sadly

scenic wren
#

if it hasnt already

drifting kite
#

I was boned because my crobat/honchkrow wasn't running infiltrator at the time

scenic wren
#

What's considered "Banned from Ubers" level of Broken in IF?

astral yoke
#

i don't think it is, either that or Poketubers are still building their shit/editing their videos. 3 days after launch, not a single video

I can only think of 3 people Id actually watch IF content from

Alpharad, PC, and Wolfe

Idt Wolfe touches Fangames tho

astral yoke
#

the mods have something planned that they cannot share atm

glacial bane
#

Oh?

#

Alright then

scenic wren
#

Will there be anything noteworthy added to the Showdown outside of Battles.

astral yoke
#

Ironically, i'm actually enjoying not knowing much, but the mods squirming in agony that they can't share what they know

wheat anvil
#

Thats what i was thinking Are we creating in the future a proper Ubers and a proper AG?

astral yoke
#

i think in the case of IF, what's the diff?

#

Both are full of broken shit

odd kiln
#

uber would remove evasion, bpass, shed, chansey/blissey

astral yoke
#

It's not even a stat contest like in regular showdown, we're talking about almost game balance breaking gimmicks

odd kiln
#

lack of species clause

#

after a couple more unforeseen bans it should be stable

pure breach
#

I reckon we’re almost there

drifting kite
#

I do not believe you

pure breach
#

At least in IF Dex

astral yoke
#

i'll stick in OU, there at least i can turn off my brain

Yeah same

so hear me out

It's funny because its cringe

#

One thing I was hopping to get from the Showdown like For Real. are there any commands to just quick look up the type/stats/etc for a fusion

#

or a /ds command to see what fusions have a specific type combo

fast elm
fast elm
#

for the near future

scenic wren
#

woo

fast elm
#

i actually had a /fuse command that worked and deleted it cause I didn't like the code lmao

#

then now its super requested

fast blade
scenic wren
#

i lowkey considered making a spreadsheet

fast blade
scenic wren
#

What data do you need in it

glacial bane
#

Sorry, what are we talking about?

ember nova
#

Okay, this set goes crazy.

ember nova
solar kettle
outer tusk
#

aerodactyl/blaziken does really well in the current meta with rock head flare blitz and brave bird

fast blade
#

But I'd need a csv file that lists:
Pokemon
Primary type
Secondary type
HP
Attack
Defense
Special Attack
Special Defense
Speed

And then maybe abilities but It'd just be an integer thing probably

tribal trellis
#

isn't the result when you search good enough?

#

like i don't know anything about the code you are trying to make

#

but it is a whole list

#

with the type and stats

glacial bane
tribal trellis
#

i mostly ran band

#

i also tried a bit with dragon dance but didn't fully make another set for it yet

#

seems like a pretty good fusion

outer tusk
#

give it a band, earthquake for coverage, maybe knock off

#

the only hard part is getting it in safely

ember nova
#

Anyone else start chanting "Rip and tear, rip and tear, rip and teat, ect..." to themselves whenever they start sweeping?

#

Or am I just weird?

tiny wadi
#

anyone doing gen 9 ag :3

he wanted to use herb

#

for unburden

#

so wanted a setup while lowering something

median thunder
#

ahhh

#

@fast elm was removing parting shot from krook intentional as well

ember nova
# median thunder unburden curse ??

Curse raises attack, defense, and lowers speed.
White herb restores the lowered speed and is consumed to activate unburden which doubles speed.
It's like an unholy combo of shift gear and bulk up in one turn.

sudden prawn
#

Why is nobody talking about how absolutely busted Jolteon is. It's ruining the tier

fast elm
#

can you see if it validates when it should?

tribal trellis
#

he still has it for me

#

mabye it's a bug with a specific fusion or something?

#

or just reload

I'll try reload

yea still the same

@fast blade what do you plan on making with it

fast blade
# median thunder

Hits like an absolute truck, but has the worst defensive typing of all time and isn't fast enough

median thunder
#

like it's no aero

#

but it's like how garchomp has 103 speed and therefore outspeed everything in gen 4

fast blade
# scenic wren <@758928198141476884> what do you plan on making with it

I was gonna write some python code where it'll prompt you for a question and calculate the answer.

For example, you may ask it like what water type pokemon has the best highest body stats, or highest attack, or the top 10 head stats for some parameter, etc.

Nothing too crazy or useful lol, but I wanted to think on it. Might just add a column that calculates the body/head stats and then you could use that to find the highest BST fusions, and then just call it a day there. Again, nothing too crazy not trying to hype it up too much

white oar

yall ever get all your reads right and get a major dopamine rush

#

Is Honchkrow having access to Heat Wave a problem? Because its a tutor-only move in Gen 7 and I'm fairly certain that tutor is not present on IF

#

Just asking one last time before openning a bug report

astral yoke
#

It's only a problem if you snitch

patent sandal

Honestly, already bothered them today, don't wanna do it again

#

Imma do it tomorrow if I remember

Which works a lil better cause there isn't a clause in it

Why can other people not see replays on mobile, or is that just me?

I am planning on fixing it soon

earlier today

you use cc anyway

fast blade
fast elm
#

misspelling in the dex file, no idea how anything still learns it in game

#

is it called Hi Jump Kick in IF?

sudden prawn
#

Yes

fast elm
#

there you go

#

fixed by the next time I update

sudden prawn
#

Could something similar be affecting burn up?

fast elm
#

if you search burn up a ton of mons come up

#

what are you referring to specifically?

sudden prawn
#

Arcanine is listed as it being illegal to know

#

When they get it as an egg move from Typhlosion in gen 7. Thought it might be a similar grammar error

fast elm
#

EggMoves = BODYSLAM,CLOSECOMBAT,COVET,CRUNCH,DOUBLEKICK,DOUBLEEDGE,FIRESPIN,FLAREBLITZ,HEATWAVE,HOWL,IRONTAIL,MORNINGSUN,THRASH

#

thats growlithe's egg moves

sudden prawn
#

That’s weird, it must be something IF is missing then.

#

Almost all the parents are in Infinite Fusion

we cooking in PU 🔥

white oar

PU doesnt even exist

#

also regenerating 125% of my HP because of Harvest is unhinged

solar kettle
unborn pine
#

hm, but scald allows it to hit stuff before setting up

solar kettle
#

It can still hit stuff with surf, just wont have the burn chance, and considering its lorb u prolly dont wanna swap this in to hit stuff unboosted midgame

#

Since u need the health to set up and to continue hitting stuff

unborn pine
#

yeah i switched it for leftovers because it keeps dying to orb damage

fast blade
fallen epoch

Like,is there a chance it will?

radiant mica

it will get it back together with all the other mons, and then it will get banned

the teambuilding channel

we discussed it today

can someone do a gen 9 IF nat dex battle i built a silly team i want to use

there should be a channel for replay vids

IF DEX OU anyone?

unborn pine
#

why does togekiss get shell smash

sullen ore
#

Togepi maybe?

#

Yep checked, togepi gets it too

#

And like, in vanilla pokemon huntail can use shell smash bc of clamperl

silver surge
#

togekiss is already good enough without it

magic fiber
#

Serene Grace Togekiss/Charizard is good in IF, but on Showdown it sucks because its no longer fire fairy

odd kiln
#

what does it use for serene grace if its fire fairy

magic fiber
#

Ancient Power
Flamethrower/Heat Wave for easy burns
Air Slash

#

Also fire fairy is an extremely good typing

odd kiln
#

not ancient power and unstab air slash

#

flamethrower gets beat by lava plume in burns so i wouldnt say thats easy burns

magic fiber
#

Im just listing examples

#

Oh yeah would Typhlosion work better?

odd kiln
#

yes but id rather a scald mon

magic fiber
#

Like Milotic?

odd kiln
#

perhaps

thick axle
unborn pine
thin inlet
#

i see the red orb being in showdown, how does it interact?

fast elm
#

same as megastones, if the head pokemon is groudon then it can primal revert in natdex ag

#

if its the body nothing will happen

#

all of the primal reversion/mega evolution/tera/zmoves only work in ifnatdexag and have no support

wispy ember
fast blade
thin inlet
fast elm

it should preserve the fusion but if you find that it doesn't, lmk :)

why the imposter ban tho Despair

odd kiln

bc improofing in ou is hard

wind junco
#

Blame Guzzlord/Ditto

wispy ember

but that's natdex

#

natdex should not affect ifdex heehee

wind junco
#

True

odd kiln

its a minimal hp difference

wind junco

I know a lot of people did not like Imposter though in any singles format 🤔

wispy ember

yeah, it revenge kills sweepers

its a super staff bros move

its not legal in any format

i just realized

#

why is alakazam ubers

#

just curious

#

i wouldn't stay psychic types are really thriving in this meta

#

i guess he has amazing offensive stats, but that's it? and as i said, psychic types don't seem good, so maybe that would also work against it

wary flame
#

Magic guard and good stat

radiant mica
#

what does magic guard protect against? only hazards and status?

wary flame
#

And life orb

#

And any damage that’s it’s disreact

is there a move tutor that teaches quiver dance in game?

or at least underutilized

theres a tm, iirc

but thats not the only case of this and i'm leaving learnsets how they are for reasons

frigid frost
frigid frost
#

you dont get access to moongeist beam w gengar

wheat anvil
#

but is less fast right?

frigid frost
#

106 speed on gengar/zoroark vs 105 speed on zoroark/mismagius

#

i do not really care for the 1 point difference hahaha

#

realistically speaking gengar/zoroark is probably better, but i just like mismagius better

#

so i use the mismagius version and preach the minor optimization on the moongeist beam damage, the focus blast didnt make any major differences in killing between gengar / mismagius

#

all that really matters at the end of the day is zoroark+ghost pokemon is very good at disgusising itself as poryz/noivern and blowing up potential checks+counters to poryz/noivern, there aren't many pokemon that check both, as normal/ghosts usually get dome'd pretty hard by nasty plot dracos, so it gives my sylv/dnite + poryz/noivern room to do well

Shall we create a Gallery of Successful teams ?
