Lance Masayoshi Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Yeah. Also, the aforementioned 100 accuracy Thunder is about the only downside to rain. Explain a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Mir Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Explain a bit. Basically, that's about the only thing going against rain teams, as opposed to sun teams, which have a type that while they benefit from their weather, it also boosts one of said type's weaknesses (referring to Grass and Chlorophyll). Also, whilst the sun cripples their main water resistor, their other notable resistors include Heatran, Tyranitar, and Garchomp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rain/Hail are one of the better ones. Do Sandstorm ones exist? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pull My Devil Trigger Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Hail is the worst, not? Is there some sort of Assault vest Tiranitar set around? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PuffPuff Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 (edited) http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-98873593 -Blizzard on Blissey -Didn't know Aerilate existed -Poison Powder on Breloom -unboosted Shadow Sneak against Pinsir *Sigh* It doesn't end there. (Some Guy's vid) Doesn't give Protect+Substitue to Tyrantrum. Tyrantrum has too many weaknesses that it needs both. ...And doesn't give Oblivion Wing to Yveltal. But...why?! That is reason alone why it is banned from the Battle Maison. Oblivion Wing+BigRoot/Life Orb=Hard to stop and haven't given him Dragon Claw. ...And using Greninja without Protean is never a recommendation. -.- ...And lol giving Fly to Charizard. It is certain that they really haven't played these games much...if not hardly at all. -.- Yveltal's recommeded set.... Held item: Big Root/Life Orb -Oblivion Wing Longetivity. -U-Turn Frustration. -Dragon Claw/Focus Blast/Taunt Better accuracy than Dragon Rush. Focus Blast for Steel and Taunt to stop opponents from stat boasting. -Dark Pulse Dark Aura powers it up. Tyrantrum Held item: Focus Sash -Protect Scouting and letting Toxic take it's course. -Substitute -Protection. -Toxic -Cripple strong teams/Pokemon. -Crunch Strong Jaw ability powers it up and no Pokemon can resist Dark (0 Damage it).

I thought Quick Claw was banned on Smogon :/ Why would they ban such a crappy and unreliable item? Quick Claw on Infernape? Meh, seen worse. Infernape's speed is huge. It's a waste of item slot. And it only activates 20% of the time. that's terrible even on a slow pokemon Edited March 25, 2014 by Nobody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
