>>37396868>Almost as absurd as trying to make a Pokemon viable with fucking critsWell when it lets you hit 25% harder than Mega Mawile, and fully twice as hard as what the Pokemon could do before, it's a good path to follow to bring an NUBL shitmon
with A rank viability in RU but still up to OU with the fewest changes. Crabhammer and a Razor Claw buff is much simpler than what other posters are suggesting for their shitmons.
>Ash Greninja KOs with Water ShurikenRock Polish survives and wins which is why it's an option.
>Mega Mawile KOs with Sucker Punch at +2The fuck are you letting Mega Mawile set up for? It's naturally slower and it dies to crit Crabhammer, if you find yourself in front of it without any boosts you're better off attacking.
>its speed is ass before boostingBase 68 isn't good by any means, but it's not completely useless.
>HeatranNeeds a +Speed nature to not get blown up since fully invested Jolly base 68 will always outspeed Modest base 77, and it absolutely cannot switch in.
>It can't take many hits because its typingIt shouldn't be taking more than one or two hits in a given match. A Volcarona isn't meant to sponge damage all game, why should this be any different?
>TangrowthSwitching in is dangerous because it's slower and still goes down to two Stone Edges (or just one Shell Smash and one Stone Edge if you're into that) with SR on the board. Obviously you aren't trying to boost on a Grass-type.
Make this simple for me, I'm not very smart. How much worse is Rock Polish sure-crit Barbaracle than other OU setup sweepers with questionable type combinations like Volcarona (RP Barbaracle is stronger and faster after a turn of setup for each) or Mega Pinsir?
