JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 I prefer Specs Swellow because of its high speed Anyway Carbink, Chesnaught, and Avalugg. Such bro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robinigo Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 Specs Swellow? How's that work? I always thought Swellow's special attack was too low to work for anything Unless you meant banded or scarfed in which case oops and I'm sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Specs Swellow has dem 125 Speed. Legit set 10/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robinigo Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 I thought you meant choice specs XD My bad On a side note, working on reckless banded staraptor, but I need to train a togepi to pass down double edge first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 I am talking about Choice Specs Swellow >_> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robinigo Posted December 9, 2013 Author Share Posted December 9, 2013 I must be missing something then, choice specs boosts sp attack, do you run boomburst or something like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chocolate Kitty Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 clearly 50 base special attack is better than using a physical toxic orb set with guts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Sunshine Sprinkles Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 (edited) I think he's talking about Choice Scarf. #killjoy Edited December 9, 2013 by Mister Sunshine Sprinkles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chocolate Kitty Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I am talking about Choice Specs Swellow >_> he's not why would anyone ever run a choice scarf swellow anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Sunshine Sprinkles Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 (edited) Oh yeah; 'dat speed makes giving it choice scarf hilariously overkill. Maybe Choice Band, then? It's always easy to mix these kinds of things up. Edited December 9, 2013 by Mister Sunshine Sprinkles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 (edited) Okay, tried some lower level pokes Delphox: sucks. The metagame just did not cooperate with this thing, and it has the most hilarious movepool ever Pangoro: A pivot Panda set is surprisingly "decent". Not something that I would reccomend though Medicham: I feel like I should have run Hi Jump Kick, but to my surprise, Medicham's problem, in my experience is lack of power, doing 60% to Rotom-W with Zen Headbut, but this only applies if you are using a low BP "safe' move. Definitely should try it out later with more risky moveset Lanturn: Water Absorb is good. Solid choice vs Rotom - W and Rotom - H Bisharp: Bisharp is kind of like Medicham with different typing, and just like Medicham, it has the same flaw, namely lack of power. A subsitute based set performs well though Carbink: I can make pages about how Carbink is made of win. Solid TR user, and can set up SR Edited December 9, 2013 by Eradicator Boner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Do you run defiant? It works great against teams with stickyweb. People barely run sticky web. Like in about 50 games I have in the last few days, only 1 player run Sticky Web Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generic General Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 People barely run sticky web. Like in about 50 games I have in the last few days, only 1 player run Sticky Web It enjoys defog and intimidate too, just sayin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwall Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 I like to run Knock Off / Sucker Punch / Iron Head / Swords Dance on Bisharp with Blackglasses and enough Speed to outspeed Rotom-W. The 50% power boost from Knocking Off an item is pretty nice, letting you OHKO 252 HP / 0 Def Aegislash after Stealth Rock 68.8% of the time (Life Orb guarantees the kill).

JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Yeah, I need to get over my obsession with Subsitute. Such an addicting move Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chocolate Kitty Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 (edited) how do you run knock off when it's a gen5 only move...? pokebank OU on showdown I'm guessing? Edited December 10, 2013 by Kitty of Time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
