Shame there is nothing with stab Fire or Ground moves that is faster than 65 speed.

With another magearna. Not rocket science.

Overheat makes more sense, it looks like a machine that could overheat

It's okay, Smogon will spend the next 2 years banning everything kept in check by Dugtrio, just in time for Gen VIII to come out and reset everything.

if you hate Smogon and PS so much make your own competitive simulator anon

>>33478284
not to mention that electricity naturally causes things to heat up if enough amps run through it

at least the machine type electric 'mons should learn it and honestly a few others as well given the typical crappy electric movepool
my suggestion

Magnemite line
Voltorb line
Mareep line
Plusle + Minum
All Rotom (rotom-f's signature move becomes fire blast)
Heliolisk
Charjabug
Xurkitree

all of them would benefit of it, all of them have a good explanation (except for plusle and minum, but they deserve a small break)

>>33478782
ded to Ice Beam or Fleur Cannon, are you dense anon?

>not always trying the switch button jus in case your opponent is a literal retard who runs stuff like Sturdy Mag

>>33477879
He is completely right you memeinf retard

>>33479701
>Overheat Vikavolt
Steelix is one of its few dedicated switchins in NU (barring a Tectonic Rage lure set), so this would probably send it to the top immediately.

>>33475935
>Victini used V-Create!

>>33477938
>Magearna used Calm Mind!
>Magnezone's Special Attack fell harshly!

>>33479959
Even then Steelix still takes a hefty amount of damage from specs Bug Buzz.

>>33479684
Considering they just told someone else to not do so why would you assume they are using them Anon?

Do you think parents spend all day putting their hand on the stove burners after telling their children not to?

Victini rips holes in it.
Jirachi turns it into setup bait for Z Happy Hour and then rips holes in it
Delphox beats most sets, even though Delphox is ass
Assault Vest Metagross makes a mockery of it
Disturbingly enough Assualt Vest Flareon can 1 vs 1 any of its sets
Reuniclus can set up Calm Minds on it

That's the thing, mot of the stuff that beats it sucks against the rest of OU.

>>33479948
nope.

>>33481090
>Disturbingly enough Assualt Vest Flareon can 1 vs 1 any of its sets
You go, Flareon! There's the one thing you're good at!

>>33481090
>Victini
Can check it 2-3 times at most, even less if hazards are up which chips it considerably. Dies to Electrium-Z variants. Always run offensive spreads, making it a less reliable check in the long run.
>Jirachi
Only specially defensive sets beat it 1v1. Scarf can RK it but doesn't like being battered on switch-ins, meaning you have to carry a secondary check. Z-Happy Hour Jirachi isn't a relevant set. Loses to Electrium-Z and Fightium-Z variants if its weakened or grabbed a boost beforehand.
>Delphox
Meme
>AV Metagross
Not used in OU.
>AV Flareon
You're pushing it.
>Reuniclus
Lose to CM Mage variants that carry Z-moves.

>>33481115
Please use actual arguments instead of one-liners.
Even the most advanced players will have difficulty with a magearna or a greninja. They can be boosted a lot. Soul Heart, Battle Bond. Both are rather hard to beat unless you build a set specialized in beating them. And them isn't just the abilities, but the monsters themselves.

>>33481090
At least mention actually viable counters like Alolan Marowak and Mega Venusaur.

OU

NOT
THE
ONLY
META

>>33475943
All metas below OU though are boring since there are even fewer Pokemon and it just gets more and more repetitive. The problem is shit that would have been considered Uber a few years ago is now standard in OU.

>>33483691
Also everything that was OU beforehand such as Scizor, Rotom-W, Mega Altaria etc now being in UU. Power creeps killed competitive

Heat wave, bc it's literally a UFO. sub-100 accuracy makes it more balanced too.
