So how are you going to run your Lunalla vp? Seeing that it would potentially be OU because of two 4x weaknesses, might as well make good use of it while it lasts right?

Lunalla@ Choice Specs
Ability: Shadow Shield
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Moongeist Beam(hopefully its spammable and has no drawbacks)
- Focus Blast(Noivern gets it so why not)
- Moonblast(obvious)
- U-Turn(all bats get this soo)

Friendly reminder that is not two 4x weaknesses.
>>
>>26629107
Those are it's only weaknesses though whereas Ho-Oh has three weaknesses to common types and isn't even that tanky to begin with. The multiscale also effectively turns these weaknesses into 2x damage if you can manage your health right.
Add to that that Lunala will be a tanky type mon judging from what we've seen so far.

It'll be OU if it has less than 100 speed tho.

It's a ghost, it'll get wisp. It's a U, it'll get U turn.

>>26629089
It has a Multiscale ability that might even be an improved multiscale for all we know since we still don't know how much damage gets reduced when Shadow Shield activates.

The Pokemon that gets multiscale are bulky as fuck, Lunalaa is going to be a defensive mom.
>>
>>26629089
>2 4x weaknesses
lunallaaaaaa isn't weak to anything except fairy type though?

do you mean because it is ghost and dark it can hit ghost psychics for 4x damage?
have fun checking that hoopa. other than that it is just ordinary super effective you fucking retard.

>680BST Ghost type with triple digit BP Ghost STAB and Multiscale
If it also has high base speed or good offensive coverage or good support movepool or some combination of those three there's no fucking way it will be balanced in OU. Hoopa-U was already banned for forcing all balance teams to carry Pursuit to avoid autolosing to it despite having useless ability and somewhat lackluster stat distribution.
>>
>>26629089
Hoping that it gets Moonlight to help refresh its Shadow Shield and Moonblast for Fairy coverage.

If she doesn't have Moonlight I'm going to be upset on principle.

If you thought stealth rocks, you just got BTFO. You conviniently forgot regenerator helps mitigating and ho oh can switch out, AND YOU JUST fucked up your precious lunala because stealth rocks will expose her to those x4 moves by making multiscale useless

Tl dr: youre a retard

Fucking everyone, it's a very strong type for coverage.

I thought we were discussing OU. Admittedly I didn't read the comment chain.

>>26631257
I've seen a shitload of arguing that Ho-oh should be in OU because it has a 4x rock weakness, I just sort of assumed that was happening again. It's my mistake.
>>
>>26629701
>Lunalaa is going to be a defensive mom
Please no. It needs to be a blistering offensive nuke to not be trash. That and a non shallow movepool too.

When the two types are ghost and dark which have effectively identical coverage, yeah, it's the same.

Congratulations, you know how the type chart works.

>People forgetting one of those types is STAB for Pursuit
It's a good thing Yveltal doesn't get Pursuit then. And as long as Lunala stays in and Shadow Shield is up it tanks most Pursuit users anyway.

>252+ Atk Choice Band Tyranitar Pursuit vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Multiscale Lunala: 218-260 (63.9 - 76.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after sandstorm damage
>252 Atk Life Orb Bisharp Pursuit vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Multiscale Lunala: 166-198 (48.6 - 58%) -- 92.2% chance to 2HKO
>252 Atk Life Orb Weavile Pursuit vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Multiscale Hoopa: 164-195 (48 - 57.1%) -- 87.1% chance to 2HKO

And that's with a crappy uninvested 100/100/100 spread that is most assuredly less than what they're actually going to give it.

>but muh hazards! Shadow Shield will NEVER EVER be up in any game EVER!
Roost, tank the hit, OHKO them back, gg. The way /vp/ can't even fathom why a Multiscale clone is useful on an offensive pokemon is so pitiful it hurts.

>People forgetting XY buffed Dark and Ghost-type by removing Steel's resistance to them and buffing Knock Off - making it an OP move comparable to Scald
Too bad Knock Off's a liability in Ubers. Between the Primals, megas, and Arceus-Formes, every team has 2-4 Knock Off absorbers.

>People forgetting Knock Off''s ridiculous distribution and the fact that literally everyone in OU spams Knock Off
Holy hyperbole Baitman!

>People thinking they can go one game in OU without seeing Knock Off at least once
>implying Lunala will ever go below Ubers

>People comparing Lunala to Ho-Oh
>People thinking Lunala will be useful
It's going to be a hyper offensive Ghost nuke and I'm going to love watching /vp/ get BTFO once again just like when I watched you retards get BTFO by Ho-oh, Zard X, Yveltal, Fairies, Talonflame, Mega Sableye... etc... etc...

Finally someone who fucking gets it. Also smogonfags thought Yveltal was weak when its stats were first revealed and that it would be OU lol. Now everybody is talking about him like its the only pokemon in ubers.
>>
>>26629152
One of the tankiest Pokemon in Uber ties with Gengar in Spe.
>>
>>26632695
That's not even getting into it's potential movepool. There is no reason for me to believe it wont get moonblast, which if it does, it would make switching in that dark type much more risky.
>>
>>26629172
Well, aren't you just so above it all. Those dirty plebs who enjoy using what they like are just detestable, right?
>>
>>26629268
Actually, the calcs put it just above 150 with a 130 bp move assuming zero IVs and EVs, Just like Zekrom.
>>
>>26631226
Groudon, Razza Cooza, and Ho-Oh itself are the only things that commonly run Stone Edge. Razza Cooza and non P-Don can't come in on Ho-Oh.

Outside of pebbles, a rock weakness is difficult to punish in Ubers.
>>
>>26634461
And since it's a Ghost it'll probably get Will-o-Wisp to fuck up Dark type switch-ins too.
>>
>>26634251
>Yveltal relevant in ubers

Not really. It gives Xerneas a free opening, does fuck-all against P-Don, and only reliably counters Aegislash and Mewtwo-X, checks Mewtwo and Mewtwo-Y that chose poorly for coverage, and can threaten Lugia with Taunt. It isn't bulky enough to wall, even though Oblivion Wing gives it a niche. It sits at a shaky speed tier, meaning it can't outspeed a lot of relevant threats. Weak to both sides of Boltbeam, Pebbles weakness.

Yveltal isn't great in ubers. It isn't terrible, but there is only a very narrow window where its niche comes into play.
Lunaala in ubers might help its case, though.

I'm going to wait and see before I inject better stats.
>>
>>26634627
It's all conjecture mind you, and it's not like Game Freak hasn't dropped the ball with movepools. Still, I'm still leaning on it getting fairy coverage. Which funnily enough Ghost and Fairy coverage is only truly walled by Pyroar.
