how do i counter this peice of shit

>>30712090

A Psychic type is your best bet

Tapu Lele and Mega Alakazam being your best options

>>30712090
doesn't Garchomp beat this thing and Ferrothorn single handedly if you run Fire Blast?

>>30712090
T-Bolt
EQ

>>30712090

Aren't a lot of Toxapex partnered with Tapu Bulu, who cuts Earthquake's power in half with Grassy Terrain?

A half-power Earthquake does jack shit to Toxapex.

With Slush Rush Sandslash EQ and Scarf Vanillux Freeze Dry is my way.
ez

>>30712090
Honestly I don't get the hate for this this.

Anything in >>30712252 fucks it quite enough. The real cancer is tapu lele and celesteela, those are the worst things in the meta right now.

I've seen Magnezone and Vikavolt oneshot it

>>30712090
Don't hate on mai waifu.

If you have Alolan Raichu you just switch in during the inevitable Baneful/Toxic Spikes and then it's a free Nasty Plot and then you roll through whatever they send out that they hope to put between A-Raichu and Toxapex.

>>30712090

>>30712531

At least half of them do.

tapu lele + mega alakazam with psyshock because fuck chansey too. Though you need rocks up to guarantee ohko on toxacancer

>>30712090

The best counter that i've got/seen is Gyrados with taunt.

Jolly 252 attack 252 speed. @lum berry
Waterfall
Crunch
Taunt
Dragon dance.

If you really want to hard counter it use earthquake over crunch

>>30712400
This. Toxapex stalled her way into my heart.

Can someone explain to me how A-Raichu wouldn't torch this fuck?

>>30713102
Why Lum Berry ?

>>30713102

fucking scald tho

>>30713172
Lum berry is so you can set up a dragon dance on the first turn without fearing scald burn or toxic. Then taunt on the next turn, after that you are free to fire off earthquake's or crunch's

>>30713164
Because
>using A-Raichu

>>30713220
I've battend plenty of toxapex with this gyrados set. 90% of the time they will go for toxic on the first turn. I haven't lost once to toxacacer once with this set.

>>30713237
I see, Thanks.

Koko also just 2hko's it doesn't it?

>>30712090
soak+toxic pyukumuku

Your waifu is shit. Hell even an entry level pokewife like Gardevoir is better than that starfish slut.

>>30713651
there's a natural sense of progression between evos tho

Mareanie's body atrophies so that her legs can become more specialized, and that's what Toxapex is.

Just because my precious Salazzle loves to fuck me and my Pokemon all the time does not make her a slut

>>30712197
This, Necrozma isn't half bad either, at least in prebank.
Porygon-Z is also a good option, Greninja with Extrasensory gets the job done as well.

>>30712090
Toxicroak when bank comes out, Magnezone, Metagross, or a strong Psychic type will do the trick

>atrophies
Look nigga, I can tell you right fucking now no amount of evolutionary atrophy is going to explain away a creature losing its torso. Now, I'm no poke bio expert, but I do have experience in evolutionary adaptions and biology. I'm going to presume important organs were there such as the heart, stomach, etc given its more humanoid shape compared to a regular starfish.... Atrophy would explain away a lizard losing its arms over time, maybe bats losing their longer legs ala Golbat, but losing a vital part of your body like that isnt going to be explained away via lack of usage. Are you seriously telling me that Mearenie didn't use it's heart and or stomach where it was located? Even if so, where did it go? Certainly not it's legs if it's similar to a real starfish. It's possible it's stomach moved up into the head so it could be barfed out like a real starfish, and it's heart moved up there too and simply connects to the 3 main circulatory rings a starfish contains from there. HOWEVER, guess what that means for Toxicuck? No room for a brain (or at the very least it's a small one). A brainless starfish for brainless waifu fags. I have my marine ecology final tomorrow and Christ am I triggered.

Reuniclus with Magic Guard.
Doesn't fear toxic or burn damage, has recovery and even defensive sets can 2HKO it without setting up so Haze isn't a problem either.
0 SpA Life Orb Reuniclus Psyshock vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Toxapex: 148-174 (48.6 - 57.2%) -- 93.8% chance to 2HKO

>swinub used fissure
wow so hard

>>30713956
>being this upset
Look, I love ecology as much as you, but it's just Pokemon. Most Pokemon don't make sense at all. And it's still pretty clear why Toxapex looks the way it does, you can't deny that.

Also, male deep sea anglerfish

>>30713956
>implying real biology applies to pokemon

Zapdos as a tank with Thunderbolt, Heat Wave, Roost, and HP Ice laughs at Toxapex cores. Destroys Garchomp, Toxapex, and Ferrothorn all at once and works great on most bulky offense teams.

Tanks and wallbreakers are good against many of the most obnoxious strategies.

>>30714121
>Also, male deep sea anglerfish
You got me there. And you're correct about design wise why Toxapek is the way it is, just needed to vent some frustration. Toxapek is still inferior as a waifumon compared to its prevo and still loses out to other waifumons introduced in this gen like Primarina or Tsareena

Mega Absol.

>>30712227
Is this bait?

>>30714434
>spoiler
That's completely subjective and I disagree.

>>30714434
Mareanie evolving into Toxapex is such a damn shame. I loved Mareanie's design when it was accidentally (or on purpose) revealed on the side of the TCG box and was prepared for a new Waifumon. Then I found out Mareanie evolved into that thing and not a real waifu.

>>30717192
I'm pretty sure that they meant a Garchomp that has fire blast has the ability to beat both toxapex and ferrothorn, with the fire blast being for the ferrothorn. Right now the two form the most common pair of annoying walls so a single pokemon that can bully them both is pretty nice

>>30717192

252 Atk Life Orb Garchomp Earthquake vs. 252 HP / 252 Def Toxapex: 250-296 (82.2 - 97.3%)

unless you run admanet chomp it can just recover and switch out
