Ambipom. I know it isn't a set, but every Ambipom is outclassed.

Solar Power Charizard, when it's actually under the sun, hits harder with all of its attacks than M-Char-Y despite having incredibly less special attack. Aside from that, it's pretty useless.

It's different, Hippowdon is better in OU because it has less counters and more utility than Umbreon.

However, considering the rest of the used items on it, having no item at a is even less retarded.

This whole thread is No Fun Allowed

Back when Charizard was new shit and people just had to have a mega, I ran a Charizard sans mega form just to lure out their ace.

Not a great strat now, but it worked when I needed it to.

Having always been a scrub there is a couple things I've done that I wasn't proud of.

Teeter Dance Eviolite Gloom was probably the worst decision. It never worked.

Stun Spore, Teeter Dance and then Moonlight the damage away. Why didn't it work? I still don't get it.

Reminds me of back when team preview wasn't a thing. I'd run Dugtrio in Ubers with 2-3 choiced Kyogre Thunder lures, setup Stealth Rocks and kill it if I pulled it off. I modified it a little bit in Gen V so I could do damage with Hone Claws EdgeQuake. It only worked 30% of the time but it was glorious when it did.

I assume the UU viability thread, where Umbreon is good. But in OU, most of >>23146103 is better. It's also weird to say "Umbreon is better than Kingdra/Mega Houndoom/Dragalge/etc" because they're fundamentally different.

I understand having multiple Pokemon that have a mega evolution on one team, for mind games. But why actually have them carry mega stones as well? And don't say, "just in case" that's a horrible reason and your bad at team building. Also, you should feel bad.
