Would such drastic changes make Delphox viable on OU tier? :)
Hello there people of Pokecommunity! :)
I'm sure you guy had heard about Serebii's Pokemon of the Week! It appears that the PotW's writer doesn't have much high regards to Delphox (which I'm fully understand when he highlighted the flaws) so I was revamping Delphox's stats, moves and hidden ability's effect. These are my proposed changes to Delphox: Spoiler:
Tell me, would such changes finally make Delphox viable in OU matches or would it be still not enough or just simply broken and metagame-breaking? :) Please give me some constructive criticism! :D |
I'm moving this down to Battling&Team-Building since this thread is about making Delphox viable in OU, which is more suited to BTB than X/Y.
Moved. I also edited your post a bit to include that image you linked though I don't get why you couldn't have just typed all that out. Anyway, the increases to Sp.Attack and Speed, as well as the added moves would certainly make Delphox more viable. How viable, idk. |
Funnily enough, I've seen some people (users Dark Azelf and srinator, I think) utilize a specially defensive Delphox with Wish. I haven't tried it for myself, nor do I know the set, but I guess it's good to know that there's a specific niche that Delphox can fulfill.

I didn't use delphox lol, I used jirachi as a fairy stoper, but yeah delphox is already great and reducing defences is bad :( why would u do that?
But yeah elf used it to stop mega voir, and it did that p well as well as clef sylv etc |

Still can't beat greninja ~(!_!)~
I would rather like a more defensively oriented offensive mon lol. Not saying the new one is but I am tired of glass cannons or wannabe glass cannons lol, but interesting! |
I think Delphox is already competitive in the OU metagame. Maybe not against beast such as the Smogon Frog or The Lati Twins,
but it surely does have a niche when battling w/ Magician. your just thinking the wrong way to use it. I know a friend who uses it w/ "Focus Sash" and "Trick Room". Surprisingly, it worked on me. Lol Theres also the "White Herb" and "Solar Beam" combo and the classic, Tricking a Choiced Item on to them, but that doesn't use its 'Magician' Ability that well. |
