How UNFROSTY of you.
>>31039342
How exactly do you use her? I'm thinking of running one, any advice?
It's going to die in one hit. Steel types are even more prevalent this gen with all the new fairies.
Metagross will end you.
Smogon aside, here's a screenshot of some popularly used Pokémon
>>31039410
Why's lunala so used?
>aron used metal claw
>>31039447
can't be ohko'd easily thanks to its ability.
>>31039447
Moonblast
>>31039397

Gee, surely you must be high in the ladder and not just some 1100 elo shitter with 40% winrate against literal retards
>>31039342
spatk sux
low def
suppor t only dont try to push it or someon ends up hurt
>>31039369
>Encore
>>31039397
Make it snow, throw out the blizz.
It usually doesn't survive putting up 2 screens.
>>31039342
8 turns? How? Aurora Veil only works for 5 turns in hail which also lasts 5 turns, no?
>>31039524
>Higher chance of being female
>Getting mad at this
If it was a starter I'd agree with you but pick your battles
>>31039795
it counts as a screen and is thus extended by light clay.
>>31039774
Aurora veil you nigger
>>31039746
reality: garchomp and salamence outspeed and oneshot both.gg
>>31039830
Not that anon, but now I want a ninetails.
>>31039835
Tech Bullet punch you double nigger
>>31039447
A multi scale that ignores Moldbreaker and can OHKO mimikyu (the next pokemon in popularty) through its disguise.
>>31039838
Literally any Obama in doubles goes scarfed
>>31039838
I was thinking this too but how do you one shot walrein? I don't think stone edge would work
I run Ninetales with Mamoswine to set up screens and stealth rocks. If people think they can kill my ninetales with fire I use protect and earthquake the shit out of them
>>31039397
Modest/timid
252 SpA/Spe
@light clay
Blizzard
Moonblast
Aurora veil
Freeze-dry (for water types)/extrasensory (coverage)
>>31039872
only if you're shit enough to leave it in on a scizor
>>31039900
You must be thrilled they nerfed smogonbird
>>31039342
It almost made OU. But it lost out by a fraction of a percentage of usage.
>>31039838
>"Walrein's Quick Claw let it move first"
>>31039826
drink bleach
>Bisharp used Brick Break
>>31039933
No U
>>31039838
Assuming they use standard doubles sets.
Garchomp has either focus sash, LO, the shitty berry or even AV
Mence is scarfed 99% of the time
Obamasnow is always scarfed
Nobody uses Walrein
Assuming the best scenario for the dragons we have a sashed Garchomp and a Scarfed Salamence.
>Mence goes first and oneshots Obama with flamethrower, now the guy is locked on flamethrower
>Garchomp uses rockslide/dragon claw on Walrein
>Walrein doesn't die
>Walrein uses Blizzard
>Garchomp goes to 1HP and Salamence dies
No idea how Walrein works and I'm too lazy for calcs, if it can resist a 2KO it wins
>>31039746
>Gaara
>Kankuro
>>31039921
Actually I don't know shit about meta i just thought my strategy could work and it does
By smogonbird you mean talonflame?
>>31039905
Thanks, anon!
Any advice for team synergy, too? I've never tried a weather team before. I figure using leftovers on something to cancel out hail damage would let me have more options.
>>31040057
The ability overcoat and the hold item safety goggles will also block hail damage.
>>31039930
>Enemy Walrein used water pulse
>CRITCAL HIT!
>It's not very effective.
>Garchomp is confused!
>scizor used bullet punch
No seriously
Also hail aint a cute weather condition
>>31040135
>Enemy Walrein used Powder Snow!
>It's super effective!
>Garchomp's speed fell!
Get rekt Garchompfags
>>31039467
You mean Moongeist Beam? Moonblast doesn't get STAB.
you can wreck with anything in OU if you're low enough on the ladder.
>>31040270
Brick Break anything shits on the entire team
>>31039342
This white beauty saved my ass so many times in Battle of Alola.Aurora Veil+Freeze Dry+faster than Garchomp+Encore to punish stalling.Absolute perfection.
>ice type
>>31040462
You do realize Ninetales actually makes use of the type because it isn't slow and defensive?
>>31040135
>>It's not very effective.
>Water against Dragon/Ground
>Not very effective
If you don't even know type matchups, just get the fuck out.
>>31039342
Because it has Sp. Atk. Kind of invalidates the 20 more BP of Blizzard over Ice Beam.
Also, Hail is still the least useful weather condition, and Heatran and Scizor are things.
>>31040275
I'll take the bait. Powder snow freezes, not speed drops.
>>31040531
If it's not up against a rain team, it hits like a soggy french fry.
>>31040057
A-Marowak for Steel attacks and Electric immunity, or HP Fire Magnet Pull Magnezone.
>>31039981
Don't forget about residual hail dmg, itll knock ouch the sash
>>31040135
>not very effective
>against something that's half ground
>>31040582
>Because it has Sp. Atk. Kind of invalidates the 20 more BP of Blizzard over Ice Beam.
What?
>>31039342
Why do you care about OU?
Nintetail is already widely used.
