>>31145979 Hey, anyone alive on new years?
Just wondering what people's opinions on snorlax is.
Curse lax with EVs in sp def and HP
Or stockpile with EVs in HP and def.
Other moves are rest body slam and crunch.

People just busy.
Luna 0001-3617-8659
>>31152040 Curse lax is always good, it depends on what you want it to wall, special attackers or physical attackers.
Dredikkus 5043 2124 2195
>>31152074 I'm a normal team. Normal has like, no options for physical defense.
My oranguru has def EVs but has calm mind to be a mixed tank.
I want snorlax to be a mixed tank but he has such low def.
What's the best split EV set? I want him to maybe use curse but be sp def enough and def enough to tank 2 hits before rest.
Thoughts? Waiting to submit my team
Also was thinking porygon 2 instead.
Idk...
Luna 0001-3617-8659
>>31152138 Checked smogon and it gave a 188 HP / 144 Def / 176 SpD for spread, guess you're suppose to run it as a mixed wall.

Just a heads up Alexis (Grass), your team submission must include moves as well as the items on each mon.

>>31163230 Mostly bulky rock-types, for me. Since I'm running mono-Poison, and Rock-types usually have access to Ground moves like EQ and then have Rock STABs to hit my Flying-type.
And then there's Sandstorm, which makes a mono-Rock team beastly as shit.

>>31165517 Definitely. Despite having fair hp and defenses because of it's kinda shitty typing dhelmise can die quickly. The thing is typically dhelmise can take a hit and kill it's opponent right back. With how special reliant most of the types it's weak to are a vest fits it great.

Leftovers. Luna 0001-3617-8659
>>31167452 >>31167481 Damn, you destroyed me game three. GG, I thought game two was off to a great start but of course that ended quickly expecting to see more of crobat, a immunity and free switch on ground is great for mono poison. I'm torn between adding it on mine for next mono, but I also want vileplume (one of my favorite pokemon) and beedrill (skipped ORAS and the mega looks great now).
Atlas 0791-1025-1013 !TOASTgjAl.
>>31167500 Which is exactly why I keep Crobat around. I used to have a Haunter instead of a Gengar for Levitate, but I figured the BST boost was worth losing Levitate, since he's got a
Sash anyway. And Cursed Body can be surprisingly effective when you least expect it.
Mega Beedrill is pretty great, especially with the buffs it got this gen with Fell Stinger and the prevalence of Fairies. I've never used Vileplume in a competitive way, but I imagine it could be neat. I usually prefer my MegaSaur for Grass/Poison.
Luna 0001-3617-8659
>>31167605 Haunter is too weak to keep around even if levitate is nice. I tried running a life orb on my gengar but unfortunately it really needs a sash. I wouldn't mind cursed body if the chance of activating was higher, 30% is too low in my opinion.
Assuming GF aren't idiots and allow us the unused mega stones I think mega bee will be too good to pass up. Vileplue is a shitmon but I love it, my sixth favorite pokemon, so I'll try to make it work. At the least it's reasonably bulky with good recovery options.
Maybe someday it'll get some nice buffs.
Atlas 0791-1025-1013 !TOASTgjAl.
>>31167684 That was my thought with Haunter. I HAD a WoW/Hex set on it to pair with Toxic Spikes on Scolipede, but since it's 3v3 and not 6v6, the opportunities to set that up are few and far between, so I dumped it and went with something a little more straightforward. Even got rid of Toxic Spikes on Scolipede. There's just no room for it in this kind of meta.
Yeah, I'm interested to see what they'll do for the other Mega Stones post-bank. I've got my Venusaurite, and that's the main one I concern myself with. MegaSaur is my nigga, and is almost always on my team, with the exception of maybe M-Sableye, M-Pinsir, or M-Tee-Tar.
I also need my Toxicroak. Easily my favorite poke ever. Even have an Expanded TCG deck centered on Toxicroak EX. I'm almost autistic about it.

Quoted By:
>>31167926 Yeah I did some digging and found out that Pelipper sits comfortably in that mid speed tier that just so happened to be perfect for a tournament like this.Slap a scarf on it and a few speed evs,max out special attack, and put the rest in bulk and it catches quite a lot of things off guard.
Luna 0001-3617-8659
>>31167926 What's worse is pelliper is a threat alone. 100% accurate STAB hurricane is insane. the fact it also has u turn is worse and allows it to set up drizzle with little worry and the fact that even if you're scared of switching in your swift swimmer you can just hurricane makes it pretty scary.
