>>19805515>This guy is a perfect example of the typical fag who uses cookie cutter move sets and set ups straight out of smogon.Yo that was unwarranted. I don't look up sets, I just make them.
Like, the Scolipede. Life Orb with Protect/Megahorn/Earthquake/Poison Jab and 64 speed EVs, adamant max attack and rest into HP.
>Life Orb100 Base attack. It needs the power.
>ProtectGet speed boost for free
>MegahornPowerful STAB
>EarthquakeGood coverage with bug
>Poison JabIt was this or Rock Slide, but Poison Jab hits most things with Rock Slide hard enough.
>64 speed EVsJust enough to outspeed Excadrill.
Literally the analysis it has on smogon (though speed EVs are different because Deo-D is not allowed in Battlespot,) but I didn't look it up because this is exactly how offensive Scolipede is done. It's one thing to copy a set, and another thing to make it yourself, come up with the same thing smogon has but understand exactly why it's the best set the mon can run.
>After all Pokemon is just like a 6 vs 6 chess game>comparing Pokemon to chessChess comes down to player kill because both players have the exact same pieces. If you're using shitty pokemon, you're going to lose to a player of equal skill using better pokemon. You're assuming I'm a shitter that just nabs sets off of smogon, which is pretty rude man.
