Help on making a competitive team? I'm thinking Lurantis, dragonite, Komala, spiritomb, toxapex, and one other. Do you think a team like this would work out?
I'm willing to kick off whoever and arrange it. I haven't even started breeding for these yet. Also don't know their move sets or anything
Bumping with OC cringe I found not long ago
>>31243824
Lurantis & spiritomb are both trash
>spirit shackle does not persist after decidueye leaves or is KOed
what the fuck is the point? Why did GF go out of their way to make all the starters shit?
Apologies for grenigger? Ash-grenigger spotlight?
>>31243693
>Apologies for grenigger? Ash-grenigger spotlight?
A better apology would have been making all starters equal in competitive viability but still good.
It doesn't need to persist when it leaves. Just landing the move gives you momentum
Obviously you shouldn't count on the trapping of shackle when Decidueye will get KOed next turn, at that point you might as well suicide it to get something else safely
Spirit shackle ->Baton pass
Why do you play as the opposite gender /vp/?
I prefer to be a full girl, rather than a faggot
>>31243616
Probably because they're uncomfortable with their appearance IRL and if they played as their own gender they'd probably be drawn to model their player after themselves or some shit
Better to look at a cute girl all playthrough than be some not quite right representation of yourself I guess
>>31243742
Hahaha, what a faggot
Read yourself
Remember ivy?
>>31243585
I think Brock's reaction to Ivy is most people's first interaction with the concept of "triggering" somebody, at least in the stupid tumblr sense.
I always wonder what the hell she did.
>>31243585
>those double-d's
DAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
>>31243602
one theory states that Brock found out she's a lesbian.
I'm disgusted already.
Poison tail or gunk shot?
>>31243533
Gunk Shot
>>31243536
You sure? 80 BP with perfect accuracy and increased crit is pretty nice.
>>31243562
OP is a faggot who don't take no risks
You know what one thing I think Black and White had over Sun and Moon's narritve?
A better message and morals
Live life for yourself and carve out your life and find your own answers as opposed by taking someone else's word for it
"Dream your dream!"
"Wonderful dreams and ideals give you the power to change the world! If anyone can, it's you!"
Lillie was just, I want to become a trainer like you because you are so good. She wasn't bad, but she wasn't main character worthy. She talks much more than N did but never feels like it's important.
>>31243463
*because N had only known life under Ghetsis and what he let him see
You could make the same argument for Lillie but she's been free for 3 months. She's already been on her own
It's a game. I don't need a game to tell me how to live my life. I'm perfectly capable on doing that on my own. I just wana catch some pokemans man.
>>31243687
And that's what's great about BW postgame
You're free
why the fuck is this the only non-legendary non-mythical non-UB gen 7 pokemon that's undisputed OU
>>31243452
A strong, defensive meta mon needs 3.5 things:
- good base stats
- key resistances
- reliable recovery
- and sometimes utility (status, hazards, etc)
Toxapex has it all. Not only does it have amazing stats and resistances, its typing allows it to synergize well as either a defensive pivot for offensive dragons/steels/etc or as part of a defensive core with mons like Ferrothorn or Heatran. It's good in a vacuum and it's good in practice.
Its access to Haze (preventing it from being setup bait, which is a major issue for purely defensive mons with comparable bulk ex. eviolite Dusclops), Scald/Toxic (spread burn/toxic and you cover all major threats with a crippling status except for special Steels like Heatran), and Recover+Regenerator means:
- it can't be setup on by most mons
- it can't be killed by most mons
- things strong enough to OHKO are usually telegraphed
- things strong enough to 2HKO have to deal with reads on Regenerator switch into another defensive core member
- it can debilitate your mons with Burn/Toxic if you try to ignore it
- it is immune to the Toxic status, the best way to otherwise deal with bulky walls, which locks you into the OHKO/2HKO dilemma outside of niche strategies like Soak.
What's there to dispute? This mon is basically a better Ferrothorn who trades hazards for status (and thus making it about as good as Ferro in practice with different team type optimizations).
Whether intentional or not (the Crown of Thorns starfish it's based off of has all the traits you'd use to design Toxapex (regenerates limbs, poisonous, few predators, etc)), Toxapex was literally designed to be an amazing defensive pokemon. Why wouldn't it be undisputed OU?
>>31243682
I think he wasn't a much asking why she is OU, but why nothing else made it in.
>>31243707
Mimikyu, Alolan Marowak and Alolan Muk are also OU.
Show me your team, /vp/. Can you defeat mine?
Here is my perfect taste.
>>31243705
Damn, that's powerful
>>31243705
Was Jasmine the only best girl in Gen 2? Did Gen 2 have any other girls at all?
mods are kill post nanu
nani?
is the annoying noise allowed to be posted here too :3c?
Were they good?
>>31243342
Yes
>>31243342
Yeah
The aesthetic was fucking bizarre though

/thread
HOW CAN THIS BE??? SHE DESERVED OU SHE DESERVES BETTER ASSAULT VEST GRANTS HER 450 SP DF :((((((((((((((((((((((((((((
Why do people WANT their favourite to be OU
I don't get it
Like sure, OU was THE tier back in gen 4/5; it was the tier that excluded "shit that was so strong it was a joke", and shitmons couldn't function properly without specialized setups.
This gen, OU is non-legendary "shit that is so broken it's a joke". Why want your Pokemon in that tier when UU is bigger and less shitty?
>>31243334
>her
>>31243334
A better hidden ability would have done the trick.
Post things from these games that >90% of Pokemon fans agree is bullshit
>>31243288
Obnoxiously-low capture rates for legendaries.
It's not enjoyable throwing 50 balls at a single legendary pokemon. It doesn't make the game any more challenging - it's tedious as shit.
>paralyze pokemon
>chip its HP down to damn near 1, False Swipe optional
>spam pokeballs and healing items
Going through these motions has never been enjoyable in over two decades of pokemon games.
>>31243288
One word
PokeRide.
>>31244790
But only autists who get unironically angered by a slight change like reskinning a bike to a tauros got mad at that.
>mfw the known meta works out only in the games and we are all going to be poor
>>31243283
should've waited until the burgers are awake, i guess
Why would you make your Pokemon fight each other? That sounds really mean.
I'm just going to catch and raise a Gardevoir, Lopunny, Gothitelle, Braxien, Tsareena, and Salazzle then fuck off to No-Where, USA
guys i just picked up this fruit
what shall i do with it
