  1. anyway, yeah i'd like to sell it

     

    Trust me, whatever they offer you is going to be a lowball.

    Don't sell that before you know how much it's actually worth, even if a few mils might seem a lot they're often lowballs if you have a basic understanding of shiny values.

    Check the value thread before you make a big mistake.

  2. As we are on the topic of CB users, can I ask where would Swampert and Tauros rank?

     

    Swampert is a solid A rank (i can only talk about the cband set, never bothered trying anything else).

    Awesome bulk, pretty nice coverage supported by 2 devastating stabs and a good typing too.

    Used to be THE perfect lead and it's still ok at that.

    It has a pretty good matchup against most pokes in the tier (especially the top three, which he can easily best in a 1v1) and can threaten anything that isn't a faster grass type or slowbro.

    Definitely the most valuable poke i ever had.

     

    Tauros could be an A rank too, it's stabs are strong enough to make the best possible use of that otherwise not very threatening 100 base att stat.

    110 base speed is a lot, especially with intimidate it means you're gonna scare away anything that isn't a wall (or aerodactyl and probably something else i'm missing).

    Again intimidate is one of the best abilities in the game, that adds even more to what is already a good pokemon.

    Still haven't tested mine cause happiness is a pain to max, but i feel i can safely say this deserves at least the same rank as flygon,

  3. Lack of offense is still an issue for weezing+dusclops. Dusclops will meet a quick death if it will o wisps ursaring when its +2 attack. So its pretty much limited to seismic toss'ing ursaring while dusclops goes to +6 with sd, or they attack with earthquake at +2 to scout for the possible focus punch. 

     

    +2 252+ Atk Ursaring Return vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Weezing: 121-144 (70.3 - 83.7%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery

    252+ Atk Ursaring Return vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Weezing: 61-73 (35.4 - 42.4%) -- 94.9% chance to 3HKO after Leftovers recovery

     

    Weezing has little chance to take on ursaring, not even considering the fact that weezing has no offense vs an ursaring and basically relies on other faster pokemon to take out ursaring. 

     

    The idea with dusc was max defence with haze, pain split and stoss.

    Ofc even if you beat ursa it's going to be hard getting back some health, but switching out after a while into something fast shouldn't be that hard.

    Ursa is unlikely to hit whatever switches in with return.

  4. 1 you're gonna need a spinner with such a weak offensive. replace ice beam or psychic on starmie

    2 That gardevoir set is a bit meh, especially with a timid nature.

    I have troubles reliably walling sp threats with a calm nature, so i don't see it doing very well. 

    Could have made sense with max speed to cripple metagross and heal off.

    I suggest you to get tbolt over will o wisp (if you can get that back with a heart scale) and see how it goes, or just re ev it.

    Trick is also quite good if your opponent runs chansey.

    3 Why umbreon instead of chansey? i mean, at least chansey can surprise ph threats with twave,

    4 You lack offensive presence.

    Let's assume your opponent runs a stall team with a lot of status and a spiker, you can easily see how it's going to end when you lack both a spinner and heal bell/aroma.

  5. Weezing is outsped by ursaring and takes a giant chunk of hp from a +2 return from ursaring. It will be able to haze once then it will die to an unboosted return. 

     

    Should have ran calcs, i remember beating an ursa like that with haze. Prolly had facade instead of return, dunno.

    You could however pain split and send something like metagross or haunter (assuming it hits hard enough) and finish the job.

    Oh, good old dusclops too, who runs crunch these days?

  6. Houndoom <3

    I didn't know how "eebil" you could be, until you made me squint my eyes beyond Asian Level 9000, just to read the color font for Electabuzz. LOL

     

    I had troubles typing that as well
