I'm Tired of Thread Titles

[luke]

The Ground weakness is too much. Drapion isn't doing all that much for me unfortunately. Something bulkier to cover my Fighting- and Ground-weakness?

 

[ABYAY]

Latias

Hmm...How about Claydol? It resists ground and fighting, can spin, set up, and other things.

 

[luke]

I really don't like Claydol. I'd like something bulky but can dish out damage in return.

 

[ABYAY]

CM Cress or C.Beam Cressy by chance? If not, you can make a semi-bulky Heracross since it resists both ground and fighting.

 

[luke]

Yeah, I'd prefer it to be a Physical-oriented replacement. Blissey has been a nuisance as well.

 

[ABYAY]

Maybe the Rest-Talk set?

Hera@Leftovers
Adamant, Guts
204HP/152atk/152spd

Rest
Sleep Talk
Megahorn
Stone Edge

I see there's no Close Combat on this set unfortunately. However, maybe you could run Brick Break so your defenses won't fall. Anyway, Sleep will activate Guts, so the extra attack should help. Oh yeah, obviously, this will like...always wall Blissey.

Psysical-oriented fighting and ground stopper? WEEZING (if that's physical-oriented enough). Gliscor works as well (GO WEEZING)

I must say though, Zapdos (given a lot more Def EVs) is usually going to work fine, even though Roost can get in your way.

EDIT: Heracross is a lot better for taking special fighting/ground hits (lol special ground hits). EQ immunity is cool, but most fighters can absolutely pummel Heracross.

All joking about Weezing aside, gliscor would probably fit better due to STAB EQ destroying blissey...just watch out for Ice Beam.

 

[ABYAY]

perhaps SD Gliscor, as forementioned in the leading pokemon thing? Maybe it can come back to strike again as being a useful pokemon!

 

[Anti]

SD Gliscor is just a SDchomp rip-off. that Skarmory walls so horribly it isn't even funny (and so does about everything else). Wall Gliscor is a much more useful pokemon in general.

EDIT: Not to mention it's going to be helping the team a lot more anyways.

No offense, but SD Gliscor really is bad. Every bulky water walls it and steel walls also say "lol." Weezing can WoW and floating psychics like Cress and Mesprit destroy it. Hippowdon can Ice Fang it to its doom and Ice Shard from Donphan is no pal either. Even HP Ice Gengar walls it.

 

[luke]

Well I need something. ;-; Drapion fails to do anything even with a Swords Dance under its belt.

 

[Anti]

Salamence...it's a pretty capable pokemon. 135 base Atk speaks for itself. Nobody uses it, but Cbmence is an absolutely terror.

 

[Samson]

yeah i mentioned salamence earlier, but there we go again with the srock weakness =/

 

[luke]

Well it's not a big of a deal. ;-; I just hate when I get stuck with two Pokemon under 25% health who are weak to Stealth Rock with no Rapid Spinner.

 

[Anti]

I use Zapdos without a Rapid Spinner, and it happens to be one of my most effective pokemon...just to throw that out there.

I really don't use spinners anymore since nobody uses Spikes and SR isn't a threat unless you're using Articuno, Moltres, or Charizard. Even those that take 25% really don't care. So I really wouldn't worry about it.

 

[Samson]

some charizards like the stealth rock damage. he's like the only fire starter who can guarantee blaze activation.

anywho, that's besides the point. what's going on with magnezone?

 

[luke]

I loved Magnezone's ability to kill Bronzong / Forretress. Heatran's a pain, but Milotic walls Heatran fantastically. If I got rid of the double Ground-weakness, Magnezone would be even more effective.
