That's not a Smogonfag. That's someone who hardly plays competitive.

He's complaining about something idiotic just because he didn't win and that he wants to limit it to "only 20 turns of healing.

What's stopping them is that recovery is healthy in the metagame and there's no reason to complain about it. I dont think you know what a "smogonfag" is. You just have your own half assed definition of what you think the community is like.

Stall is the best way to play, and it's only really viable in 6v6 singles.

There was a Qwilfish set that did nothing but counter all Mega Lucario sets that didn't run shit like Bone Rush.

They banned mega Lucario because he could be special or physical/unpredictable, right? (tell me if I'm wrong) Aegislash is just as fucking unpredictable.

I believe the full set used some bullshit like Destiny Bond or Counter to guarantee the kill. I do know that the Qwilfish was rendered even more useless than before in the process.

Lucario is frail, and compared to all the other popular sweepers, Lucario isn't that fast. Hell I OHKOd one with a Mega Charizard Y and Heat Wave. Plus Charizard Y resists both of Lucario's STABs if he does out-speed

252 SpA Mega Charizard Y Heat Wave vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Mega Lucario in Sun: 542-638 (192.8 - 227%) -- guaranteed OHKO

Mega Char Y would be a check, not a counter. Mega luc outspeeds it, and CC is a 2HKO on it.

So Y-zard is unable to switch in, unable to check if sneaky pebbles are, and unable to check if it got a SD boost.

Yes, great answer.

That means it's a 2HKO, therefore it cannot switch into Mega Luke, especially since it outspeeds it.

Also:

That's an example of a check. A counter would have to be able to switch in on Mega Lucario and either have to deal with taking one more hit or letting Skywalker attack at +2 before getting a chance to retaliate.

The only Pokemon that can't actually be checked is Mega Gengar, and it might be the first thing to be banned from Ubers since Moody at this rate.

holy fucking hell i honestly can't believe that idiots like you still haven't learned anything beyond "whoa man just use a super effective hit!"

like seriously are you so fucking stupid that you actually think that point hasn't been thought of by anyone before?

mega lucario outspeeds mega charizard y and can 2HKO it. that means you can't switch char-y in. it's not even a fucking check, it literally cannot switch in

you're dumb

I love how he complains about how you can do nothing about it, yet he could have forfeited the whole time. It's his fault for giving his Golbat a shit moveset that can be countered by any poison type.
The best part is how his girlfriend doesn't even really take his cry-babby-acting serious and tried to damage control though the rest of the episode.
