If you don't like stealth rock, it's basically nonexistent in battle spot If you don't like Smogon's bans, they're legal in battle spot

gently caress ditto. Spent like 2 hours chaining him with me either accidentally killing him or him finding out how to suicide using my pokemons move. Finally got to 40 on the chain and its an imposter ditto who immediately takes Incineroar, breaks out of 3 dusk balls on red health then suicides with flame blitz. Thats probably it for my breeding atttempts.

Edit: no breeding required either, just a handful of Heart Scales to give Garbodor and Klefki Recycle (you can potentially skimp on Garbodor if you don't mind using multiple Leppa Berries instead) and Hypno Switcheroo. Only flaw I saw was that the Klefki can only stay level 1 for a single chain, so you have to go re-delete the moves it learns and deal with it having that much more defense. notoriousman fucked around with this message at 03:13 on Nov 30, 2016 |

notoriousman posted:Maybe a bit excessive, but I stumbled on this guide which takes quite a bit of setup but is essentially foolproof once it gets going. Thats basically what I was using. But I ran out of PP so switched to Incineroar to continue to kill the incoming dittos and the last one had imposter so immediately transformed into him. e: right I see the substitute cancels out the imposter, I didnt have that

Because if your friend decides to use something like Aegislash, you can smack 'em upside the head for being a poo poo. e: This also means if you build a team of six pokemon, you can use all 6 pokemon.

Bongo Bill posted:Aegislash is fun to use. Internet Kraken posted:Aegislash is a cool and good pokemon and I will not tolerate it being disrespected in such fashion.  This post from 2 pages back explains exactly why I hate fighting it. The Lord of Hats posted:That one you need to look at the stats for. In defense form, Aegislash has *150* Def and SpD. In attack form, it has 150 Atk and SpA. To switch from defense to attack, you attack. To switch from attack to defense, you use King's Shield, which is Protect, but also nerfs your attack two stages if you hit it with a contact move. An example set (not the greatest, but I *think* it's similar to what it ran back in OU) is King's Shield, Gyro Ball (minimum speed), Swords Dance, and Shadow Sneak. Thanks to how priority works, you are now faced with what is, essentially, a pokemon with 150 in ALL of those stats.

It was pretty recent but I think one of the more ridiculous bans Smogon made was the Mega-Sabeleye ban right before Sun/Moon came out. From what I can tell, they determined it was fine if a bit annoying in OU, but people whined so much that it was suspected again.

I've never done legit PvP before but I'm interested in VGC. The Doubles format seems easy to get into. I've a vague idea of running Ninetales-A with Snow Warning and Aurora Veil with an Overcoat Automotize Kommo-O. I feel like I should run a Tapu just to have the ability to reverse weather against opposing Tapus but idk. Any advice on complements to Ninetales and Kommo are welcome.
