>>23518123>Snowball>If the holder is hit by an Ice-type attack, the holder's Attack stat is increased one stage. The item is consumed.Shit. This ruins all our plans. Ray is also weak to Dragon moves, can we kill it with a Pulse?
>0+ SpA NootsaNootsa Dragon Pulse vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Mega Rayquaza: 248-292 (70.6 - 83.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKOOkay, so we actually want to run Dragon Pulse over Ice Beam. The risk of Snowball Ray using SD and
snowballing to +3 is too much. Even a Haban Berry, which weakens the first Dragon move, won't save Ray.
>0+ SpA NootsaNootsa Dragon Pulse vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Haban Berry Mega Rayquaza: 124-146 (35.3 - 41.5%) -- guaranteed 3HKONext one kills, and Ray doesn't do as much without the Life Orb.
>+2 252 Atk Mega Rayquaza Dragon Ascent vs. 252 HP / 4 Def Skarmory: 175-207 (43.3 - 51.2%) -- 5.9% chance to 2HKOSo we run Dragon Pulse over Ice Beam, and switch in as soon as Mega Ray enters the field. That gives us a true hard-counter to the most powerful Pokemon in the series.
>-b-b-but REST SETS ANON OH NO!Christ, NootsaNootsa learns Taunt also. Happy? Let's also trim those stats, make them look a bit nicer. Multiples of five are nice.
The real final result, the ultimate counter to the ultimate weapon.

Scarf Thunder bitch, it's not over till it's over. Anticipate part 4.
