Are there any Pokemon you feel you cannot make work no matter how hard you try?

The only thing that kinda works is juggling Taunt with Metal Burst, and having Sturdy. But yeah it needs the Mega Aggron treatment.

It's not reliable but red card + sturdy metal sound often guarantees a kill a la wobbuffet. It could be used to revenge kill a set up sweeper or force a switch

Castform
Unown

To fix Castform, I guess increase the base power of Weather ball to the equivalent of Flamethrower/Thunderbolt/Ice Beam/Water Pulse or even Fire Blast/Thunder/Blizzard/Hydro Pump.

He's really common in PU if you want to use him that badly.

Might as well not even bother with that shit. Isn't that just the bottom 50 pokemon or something like that?

It's like 3.something% useage. That's the only place that he'll ever be viable in so it's up to you.

Someone tell me how to get this shrimp working. It just does not do it for me, even in the lower tiers. I tried assault vest,life orb and leftovers sets with water pulse or scald/aura sphere/dark pulse/ice beam.

I hit hards, but just not hard enough, it can take a hit, but dies easily because it isn't exactly fast. How do you make it work? What am I missing?

I hate the wording. Sure it's in regards to this tier, but it just annoys me seeing "amazing" and "viable" in the lowest of the low.

Tailwind support, TR, or just git fucking good since AV is enough for him to live long enough since he OHKOs everything relevant with his godlike coverage.

Let me try this again. How do I make Clawitzer work? I can't get it going even in the lower tiers. I tried Life Orb, Assault Vest and Leftovers with Water Pulse or Scald/Aura Sphere/Dark Pulse and Ice Beam. It hit hards, but just not hard enough. It can take a hit, but dies quickly because it isn't exactly fast. How do I make it work?

Pangoro may become semi-viable with move tutors, what with Iron Fist and all.

Seviper

It gets some neat stuff like Coil, Glare, Switcheroo, and Dragon Tail but it lacks survivability.

Its offenses are too balanced at the cost of everything else.

Have you tried doubles? Heal Pulse is boosted by Mega Launcher, so it can heal 75% with a single move. I haven't tried it, but it might be slow enough to work in a trick room.

Clawitzer is a threat in triples because it can send Mega Launcher water pulses anywhere on the opponent's side.

Corsola is so bad, even if its mega got a Mega evolution, it'd still be underwhelming.
It has to get a Gyarados-like evolution (i.e., 240 point stat increase) to be remotely viable.

Shield Smash, Mind Control, Ecto-Blast, Corrode, Shrapnel Beam, Siege, Static Cling, Usurp, Seance, Meteor Shower, Placid Song, and Wyvern Cry sounds really nice.
Both balanced and useful.
