>>50282169If I’m running scarfdevoir then I will, because it invalidates scarfking. As you said, they run modest. And chances are if I’m running Gardevoir, I’m playing to its strengths and running its own scarf set which would outspeed it.
> 252 SpA Gardevoir Psychic vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Nidoking: 362-428 (119.4 - 141.2%) -- guaranteed OHKOIf the Nidoking is (for some reason) running timid, it can miss out on the KO on Garde, as it is sacrificing too much power. There’s no scenario in which Nidoking has a guaranteed advantage against one of Gardevoir’s most common sets.
