Why aren't any of you talking about how amazing this guy is with Speed Boost this gen? I finally decided to start testing some teams on simulators before I start breeding in-game and tossed together a team with Scolipede and Garchomp. There were no survivors.

Is MegaChomp really the best choice for that, though? I would think MegaKang could do more damage.

>>15432694 I prefer Garchomp because it has 120 Special Attack letting go mixed to handle Max Def Steel types like Skarm and Ferro. It's also bulky as all Hell letting is survive things you wouldn't normally expect it to.
The point is that Speed Boost Scolipede is amazing, though. It could work with any physical attacker that just isn't quite fast enough to sweep on its own.

I'd love to try it out IF I COULD FUCKING FIND SOMEONE WITH A FUCKING WHIRLIPEDE IN THEIR SAFARI

Scolipede was one of my favorite bugs of gen V, but Galvantula was my favorite. Glad they both got some love this gen.

>>15432921 id rather use fire fang tbh
i lead with galvantula, throw a sticky web or bug buzz if they have a magic bounce, then either sweep or volt switch to Scolipede, put up a sub, swords dance/ another sub until i baton pass to mega garchomp and sweep
Also megahorn in case scoliopede gets taunted.
also why do you have FB/ Iron head?
That fire/bug is still popular and you don't have coverage for it. and why not use fire fang? way easier.

>>15433328 STAB doesn't matter if you miss.
But if your team already has good ground attacks then I guess megahorn is fine.

>>15433339 That T2 can be a thunder wave, confusion, taunt, it's scary.
why use focus sash over toxic sludge?

focus sash is for if they attack and it would 1hko you during T2

>>15433509 why not use substitutes over protect?
if they switch you have a sub up, so they cant kill you and you can heal.
and if they switch you can use sub again so it stays up
you could also baton pass the sub
plus what if they switch as you use protect? id feel bad
