And it wouldn't take much. The new Z-move, while cool, is only the start. Let's play with it a bit and get a pseudo that is able to stand toe-to-toe with things like Tyranitar and Salamence.

HP 75 - 93
Atk 110 - 70
Def 125 - 117
Sp. Atk 100 - 115
Sp. Def 105
Spd 85 - 95

This mixed attacker shit never works. Kommo-o is now a dedicated special attacker with slightly less bulk (but better HP) and better than average speed. Clanging Scales (and Clangorous Soulblaze, of course) is now worth a move slot. In addition, it loses Dragon Claw at 43, gaining Vacuum Wave, Dragon Dance at 59, gaining Nasty Plot, Outrage at 67, gaining Aura Sphere, and finally Draco Meteor from the tutor. Thoughts?

Clangerous soulblaze is more than enough. Doesnt need arbitrary stat rearrangement to further it.
>>
>>33337949
Bullshit. The best Pokemon are strong because they cover all bases. Clangerous Soulblaze is great and might even put Kommo-o into OU out the gate, but that alone won't keep it there.

Here's a hint
>Do the math you fucking retard

>>33337969
Yet again, /vp/ demonstrates why it knows jack shit about competitive.


Porygon-Z got put into BL with a move that only has half of the effect of CSB. Porygon-Z's stat setup is also far less ideal when compared to Kommo-o, who can actually bulk naturally, let alone after a setup. CSB is not only an omni-boosting move, but a strong enough attacking move that it was able to KO Sala and Chomp on spread, meaning its likely 180bp. It's moveset isn't amazing, but it's anything from barren. It's got Fire, Steel, Fighting in addition to EQ for the resists.

You don't need to then further min max the shit out of it and pile on top tier moves after top tier moves. CSB is enough.

I dropped out of school. Why do you think I spend all day on 4chan?

>>33338039
Are you literally so retarded that you can't even do basic math? It's fucking simple addition and subtraction you fucking mongoloid.
>>
It's hilarious seeing people sucking Kommo-o's scaly cock now that it gets a unique Z-move. Last week this thread would have been fifty lines of "lol kommoo is shit you fuckin faggot kill yerself lol".

I'm also black.

Dawg.

Porygon-z is by far more effective at the +1 thing than Kommo-o mate

after conversion-z Porygon-z is now a mono-ghost with recover making him fairly difficult to break through with anything that can actually stand up to a +1 adaptability shadow ball coming off a 135 sp-attack stat

meanwhile even with +1 kommo-o still has a glaring 4x weakness to a type that's immune to his most powerful STAB and it's offensive stats are, even at +1, still mediocre
>>
>>33338092
oh and should be mentioned that unlike kommo-o, porygon-z always was a high tier UU pokemon that was perpetually 1 move away from BL, OU or even Ubers
>>
>>33338092
When youre at +1 accross the board, your intention isn't to block everything, it's to block what you can as you sweep. It's meant to turn neutral matchups into winning ones.

You don't setup when the opponent still has Fairies. You wouldn't set up with M-Scizor if the opponent was still rocking Heatran's and ZardY's, but that doesn't make M-Scizor bad at it's job. Kommo-o has natural bulk, and decent speed. This gives it far, far more oppurtunities to set up, since speed tiers start to matter far less. If the foe is already faster, there's a much higher chance you can bulk the first hit. If it's slower, you'll be able to take the incoming stronger hit far better after +1. Kommo-o's stat spread is far more adaptable.

In addition, and much more importantly, you're actively nuking AS you set up. You're not giving up any momentum in the process. So long as you dont nuke like a tard at the beginning of the match, when there's Fairies still around, you'll be fine. In fact, setting up while a Fairy switches in isn't even that bad, since you'll still get the stat boost, and outspeed the next turn.

>perpetually 1 move away from ubers

The fuck are you on about
>>
>>33338172
Porygon-z already serves the role that you're trying to push kommo-o in as a wincon when you get rid of it's counters.

Also while kommo-o has the better bulk statwise, porygon-z has the better practical bulk in that it's weaknesses are much harder to exploit and it has access to recover moves.
Also there's the fact that kommo-o, at +1, does not hit NEARLY hard enough to discourage naturally bulky pokemon from switching in because in the end, he still has at best a 110 base attack stat and his speed is low enough that even with a boost he can't justify using a non speed boosting nature.

and yeh, he attacks when getting the +1, but how much does that matter really? It's a move with a typing a large number of very high tier pokemon are immune to allowing them to block the damage, and which can then retaliate with a 4x SE attack which, as demonstrated can still destroy kommo-o even with the boosted defenses while it fails to ohko in return thanks to it's mediocre attack stats.

Remember that kommo-o already has dragon dance and it does nothing to help him.

>The fuck are you on about
they actually did tests on it, Boomburst porygon-z would be so ridiculously powerful it puts him at the very edge of ubers
>>
Don't die.

>they actually did tests on it, Boomburst porygon-z would be so ridiculously powerful it puts him at the very edge of ubers
Boomburst would be good on a lot of things, anon. You can make a lot of things "on the edge of Ubers" just by giving them the right move
>>
>>33337933
He looks scary for some reason
>>
>>33338244
>Boomburst porygon-z

I think even having a special normal move that isn't Tri-attack like Hypervoice or a special version of Return would put it pretty high
>>
>>33337933
>stand toe-to-toe
yeah right, this would probably blast through Tyranitar and Salamence. You don't need to break everything, anon
>>
>>33340188
Boomburst on Wack Duck would let it OHKO shit that don't resist it.

Swellow with Boomburst if it had better base special attack would be BL material and be the second BL bird asides from Bravest Bird because of Scrappy Boomburst.

>Boomburst on Wack Duck would let it OHKO shit that don't resist it.
Boomburst on Wack Duck would let it OHKO fucking Chansey after one boost.
>>
>>33337933
CSB and the move tutors are enough
>>
>>33337969
>The best Pokemon are strong because they cover all bases
This is exactly how it became one of the weakest pseudos

>not particularly strong despite typing and boosting moves
>not very bulky despite 75/125/105 bulk and 3 defensive abilities

Seems like Kommonium Z could be a step in the right direction, but i'll wait to see how it fares with tutors
>>
>>33338172
Wait, how do you know if it still gets the boosts if Clangorous Soulblaze doesn't connect? Does Genesis Supernova still set up Psychic Terrain if used against a Dark type?

In case you haven't noticed, those stats don't add up to 600
