Landorus-T is my favorite pokemon because it is one of the best Pokemon in the OU metagame. Thanks to its amazing combination of traits, such as Intimidate, an immunity to Ground, a base 145 Attack, and a diverse movepool, it can efficiently perform a variety of roles, easily fitting on many kinds of teams. Landorus-T can function as an excellent pivot, being able to set up Stealth Rock and check threats such as Zygarde and Garchomp while getting momentum with U-turn. Its access to different boosting moves in Swords Dance and Rock Polish and the introduction of Z-Moves also allow it to become a fearsome wallbreaker and setup sweeper, with the ability to defeat offense or stall with the appropriate move. However, Landorus-T's weakness to Ice and Water means it is defeated by common Pokemon such as Greninja and Keldeo. It also lacks any form of recovery, meaning it can't constantly switch into opposing Pokemon's attacks throughout the entire match. Lastly, its mediocre base Speed without boosts leaves it outsped by many offensive threats, such as Tapu Lele.

dont bump your own thread twice its just sad.

ANYWAY

This one goes out to Inkay and Malamar. I've always been obsessed with cephalopods, my favorite being the cuttlefish. During the XY I saw that Inkay was a squid and I was already sold, it being adorable and having a unique typing/ability only sweetened the deal. Seeing it in game was even better because of the way its lights flash when it attacks or emotes (emulating the color changing chromatophores of the cuttlefish) My boyfriend went to Japan and surprised me with a big Inkay plush he got from the pokemon center there. I also love that it knows hypnosis because cuttlefish are known to flash their chromatophores dazzling displays that hypnotize or mesmerize their less intelligent prey. I consider Malamar to be my ace pokemon. Despite it not being the best I've been able to have a lot of success with it especially since SM introduced Z Crystals (Z-Hypnosis boosts speed even if the pokemon has contrary) Here is the set I use:

Malamar (M) @ Psychium Z
Ability: Contrary
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Psycho Cut
- Knock Off
- Superpower
- Hypnosis

After Z-Hypnosis its at 409 Speed and ready to start setting up and sweeping.
