Damn man the thing on it's head looks exactly like an Unown. Why aren't they part of the lore senpai?

>>29921161

that seems annoying as fuck, but how does talonflame counter him that other fire types cant?

>>29921382
Taunt

>>29921382
>>Can't do jack shit because of cosmic power boosts
Toxic, Rest, Psych Up, Pursuit

>>29921412
Still dies in 8 turns

>>29921421
>Toxic
Sigilyph isn't affected by it

No, because Incineroar not only resists it, but it has a Stab Attack that ignores it's boost gimmick

You could right an edgy Pokedex entry about how Incineroar are the natural predator of Sigilyphs.

>>29921401
Outspeeds, outboosts, comes with recovery?

>>29921421

>>29921428
I switched in before you burned me. Also houndoom

>>29921401
it (used to) fuck it in the ass with brave bird before it gets a chance to set up burns+buffs

>>29921456
>Before flame orb activates

>>29921421
Are you fucking retarded? What pokemon games do you play that let you toxic a burned pokemon? And after that, what pokemon game do you play that lets you damage a pokemon with magic guard with toxic poison?

>>29921456
Ok so we have 2 hard counters out of ~700

>>29921161
it's not like Knock Off is a thing now

>>29921456
>using Houndoom

>>29921488
>Psycho Shift, become unburned
>Toxic'ed
Like that, I would assume.


>>29921514
Don't forget Incineroar

>>29921069
You know this Pokemon was shit back in Gen 5, right? All SD/BU Talon did was make it go from completely irrelevant to utterly unusable.

It still isn't bulky enough to survive how hard OU hits and set up, especially not hits from megas.

Are you mentally retarded

What is toxic going to do?

>>29921421
>toxic when it has flame orb and magic guard
>running rest on any dark-type as if it's defensive (umbreon is the only exception and it's running wish or moonlight)
>implying anything uses psych up
>implying pursuit is doing any damage when it's at +6 defense
keep trying kid
also the idea that just because something has a counter means its unusable is stupid. clearly a team running Blood Totem would carry plenty of other pokemon to deal with dark and fire types. I bet you think ferrothorn is bad because it gets countered by fire

>>29921514
Or I send in something that hits it super effectively with stab. Unless you already have a few cosmic powers stacked up, that thing is going down

>>29921576
>Gastro Acid!

>>29921161
>Go, Houndoom

This isn't even a joke. I managed to pull this shit in a match once. I didn't even realize it was the PERFECT counter until I swapped it in.

>>29921579
Raikou with specs comes in, uses thunderbolt twice

>>29921520
good thing i run whirlwind and weakness policy instead of psycho shift and burn orb

>>29921596
Huh

I didn't know you had 5 moves

>>29921649
That's why you'll always fail, miserably might I add.

252 Atk Tough Claws Mega Charizard X Flare Blitz vs. +1 252 HP / 0 Def Sigilyph: 205-243 (58.9 - 69.8%)

This is the problem with Sigilyph. You just switch in anything that hits hard and it just dies. You don't have to his super effectively, or have some ebin Taunt or Psych Up set. You just bring anything in that's a general nuke that's not vulnerable to burn and Sigilyph can't outboost/outheal their damage. For the most part, that just means "bring in any special attacker in the tier to counter it" with a few exceptions like Zard X here.

You know darkrai does not have that ability, or that move, right?
