>that moveset
Baton Pass makes him a literal fucking tank

>>28119097
even if its underused, doesnt meant that its not strong enough to be used.

Thats what he means

Underated? Everybody knows that darmanitan is a BEAST, the best pokémon in a Sun-oriented team and it doesn't even have a weather related ability and shit.

To bad zen mode is a shit.

>>28119140
Fuck it hurts so bad that Zen Mode is such garbage.

If they just made it an alternate form he'd get so much pussy. Top tier badass design, too.

>>28119140
Yet i never seen him in battle, all i see is narutoad and charizord

>>28119213
Frankly speaking, he doesn't really need zen mode, but it's sad to see another karma of "badly planned ability", like truant, slow start, defeatist, wonder guard...

Is there even a way to fix zen mode?

My best bug poke ever, didnt even know that venipede evolves into this fucking awesome designed poke,

>>28119435
He's the god tier baton pass setup master though: protect, Iron Defense, Repeat until shit gets dangerous, BATON PASS that lovely speed boost and buff onto a waiting ally!

>>28118862
Have you ever played UU? This fucker is everywhere.

>>28119405
Zen mode gets same speed as normal.

>>28119140
>>28119213
>>28119405
You do realise darmanitan has sheer force, and zen mode isn't his only ability?

It's not like he got shafted as hard as archeops or slaking.

>>28119435
Scoliopede was everywhere until smogon implemented the baton pass clause.

>>28118862
Blaziken and Victini do what Darmanitan is trying to do but slightly better because of higher speed. Darmanitan can still kick ass though, you just need better prediction because you gotta either scarf it or run Sticky web. Speed Creep in gen-6 wasn't nice to it.

>>28118920
Works great with Memento and Taunt users (Whimsicott is an amazing teammate). Cripple an enemy and use the chance to Belly Drum. Most people would rather use Azumarill, but Slurpuff gets the job done just as well, and has better speed, so they're comparable in my book.

>>28119435
One of the best bugs. Even with Baton Pass clause in smogon it's still awesome for setting up Toxic Spikes and can do well as a Swords dance user since those Megahorns fucking hurt.

The only reason he isn't OU is because everyone and their granddad runs Scizor.

>>28118920
I thought this one just a useless cute pokemon

It's an good Pokemon with 120 ATK and access to moves like Play Rough, Fire Punch, EQ, Superpower (or Close Combat if I'm incorrect). Most likely it isn't used that much because of its low speed.

Absolutely invincible bird.

Btw, what makes it strong though

This thing is a literal monster and there's not many things that can take a hit at +2, even resisted ones. It can single handedly destroy stall teams.

It's not more used simply because its bulk and speed are shit.

>Sheer Force
>not a single water physical move that can take advantage of it
Literally why. It doesn't even get Waterfall.

>>28121906
It can tank +0 bullet punch and OHKO with flamethrower though

>>28126564
Crabhammer?

>>28127406
It doesn't have an additional effect sheer force can eat for the boost.

Fucking kill me.

>>28126564
Oh my god, it doesn't get fucking Waterfall? I just looked it up. I could have literally sworn up and down that it got fucking Waterfall. Jesus. Why would they waste Sheer Force?

>>28129374
>>28126564

The worst part is its amazing, Nidoking-tier Special movepool.

>>28118920
overrated

Crawdaunt+dragon dance=<3

Also, why is sheer force + life orb a thing that hasn't been fixed yet.
