>implying smogon is competitive and not little bitchy kids banning stuff they cannot counter.

>>30123017
What is the best set for celesteela? Physical, special, or mixed? Automize or leechseed?

>>30123453
i knew this when they banned garchomp w/ ice resist berry back in gen 4

>>30123408
No, put Genesect, Zygarde, Aegislash, Toxapex, Pheromosa and Tapu Koko

>>30123408
>>30123771
zygarde has already gotten the ban hammer

>>30123512
mixed AV. Make sure you have a cleric around.

>>30123839
Only Core Construct Zygarde

>>30123771
>Genesect, Zygarde, Aegislash, Pheromosa
These are getting the ban hammer soon

>>30123771
>and Tapu Koko
you are doing it wrong

replace with Hoopa-O

>Talonflame actually becomes more than a braindead solution to everything since anti-priority exists but the roach is running wild
>gets nerfed anyways

Running a gen 7 rain team. Decided to run parasect on it (as it resists grass x4 and electric type attacks) and got leech life with 80 BP.

It's probably more of a meme than a pokemon but it's sure as hell fun to use.

It takes a lot of damage from most attacks but you can find openings vs plenty of pokemon that would hassle rain teams and go in and spore and set up.

If you wanna test it, here it is.

Rain god (Parasect) @ Leftovers
Ability: Dry Skin
EVs: 252 HP / 160 Def / 96 SpD
Careful Nature
- Leech Seed
- Leech Life
- Substitute
- Spore

Who /okaywithpheromosainOU/ here?

>>30126066
no one

bye

>>30126089
I haven't been paying attention to the new meta. Why's pheromosa so good?

>>30126149
Reliable pivot that can do insane damage

However, almost any priority move cripples or outright KOs it, and if you have a ghost type (or toxapex) it just gets destroyed, so I'm not sure why everyone is rushing to ban it

>>30126170
because it has 2 great typings, its fast and strong with a built in moxie

it cant leave huge dents in teams, then come back later to sweep up
