Gen VII gives garchomp access to dragon dance, how fucked is the meta

>>28364055
>Ice Beam
Same with every other Dragon with a x4 weakness to Ice.

>>28364055
Weavile snatches the dragon dance and sweeps

>Snorunt used Icy Wind

>>28364055
Not very. Do you really think that DD garchomp represents a new apex of power in a world where M-Mence and M-Kang exist?

>>28364085
Someone never played gen 4. Sand veil plus permasand and Yache Berry allowed him to completely shitstomp the entire meta. Basically unless you were a total retard Garchomp was a guaranteed kill on something. The only thing that sort of countered it was icicle spear skill link cloyster and even that wasn't reliable.

>>28364055
Not much. There a lot of ways to play around it because is a physical sweeper. DD may make M-Garchomp useful and give regular Garchomp a bit more offensive presence, so I'm not opposed to it

Remember when Haxorus was coming, and it was going to have 147 attack and the option of BOTH Swords Dance and Dragon Dance as well as everything Garchomp learns, and it was thought to be the end of days?

Haxorus is not a Ground type, has shit bulk and 97 base speed as opposed to 102.

M-Garchomp becomes viable

I wasn't sure if I just imagined the hype around Haxorus. I swear I remember seeing it online almost as much as Garchomp and Salamence, but looking back at 2013 team reports/usage stats it really didn't seem to be that big.
