TheBeaster (Gallade) (M) @ Wide Lens
Trait: Steadfast
EVs: 255 Atk / 255 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Hypnosis
- Swords Dance
- Drain Punch
- Shadow Sneak

Now before A pokemon that makes a sudden Status condition. this guy sweeps if you dont do it.
Hypnosis' Accuracy is increased. so Hypnosis is able to storm through without worry mostly.
Now Add a few Sword dances (1 or 2 are recommended) Then use Drain Punch or shadow sneak.
They should of fainted. Now whip up another Hypnosis again and do another swords dance, and use drain punch or shadow sneak. There. explained. now sweep away with the combo.

I like it lol

thx? wow already a new reply lol

Uhh, I feel like I should ask, why Hasty instead of Jolly? I understand maybe if it was a Counter lead or something, but I think lowering his sp.atk is preferred over his defense :/ Also, it's fairly common for an opponent to switch out their sleeping poke nowadays with the new sleep mechanics, so expecting them to just sit their and let you set up is sort of wishful thinking, don't you think? Lastly, seeing as it does appear to have more a offensive nature to it, I would suggest running Close Combat over Drain Punch, the extra power is always appreciated. Lastly, it may be nice to put Ice Punch as a slash behind Shadow Sneak, as the ever-popular Gliscor resists your stab, and doesn't take very much damage at all from Shadow Sneak (I believe a +6 Shadow Sneak does 33.3-39.0% to a 252 Hp/108 Def Impish Gliscor, with a +6 Drain Punch doing 46.3-54.5%).

Otherwise, good stuff

^Dat ._. (I realize that I'm risking a "Hack!" from 49th )

Word .-. I guess I'm just too charismatic a person

^ Dat ._.


*trollface*

Dude

4/252/252 as the EVs not 255/255 k?

255 255 is better, and how i like it

4 EVs boost a stat 1 point (not including jump points), meaning that 255/255 spreads waste 6 EVs, 4 of which could be boosting another stat. It isn't a large difference, but why not get that 1 extra point?

^ Dat ._.






xD Seriously try 4/252/252. It will give you the exact same stats +1 more wherever you want it.

4/252/252 >

Now a sweep combo. (you can't use it in the Neoseeker tour, sry.)



Try it if you are irritated with your opponents. (doesn't ALWAYS work)

Sweeper (Linoone) (M) @ Focus Band

Trait: Gluttony

EVs: 255 Atk / 255 Spd

Hasty Nature (+Spd, -Def)

- Belly Drum

- ExtremeSpeed

- Shadow Claw

- Pin Missile



Well here you have it, The combo explains itself, just look at it



And im ignoring everything you say midpoint, exept if you have something nice to say, its my way and deal with it

Again, why not Jolly over Hasty? Also again, why not a 4/252/252 spread? Why run such a gimmicky item as Focus Band when you could use Sitrus Berry (as Salac Berry is currently unreleased)? Why run Pin Missile over something more useful like Seed Bomb? Why not mention the importance of Double Screen support or at least sub-passing him into the game? Why not mention the importance of Spikes/SR support to net some OHKOs and 2HKOs he wouldn't otherwise be guarenteed (ie.Steelix, Aggron, etc.)?

Ok, I'm done ._.

._. UJELLYBRO?!
and i didn't waste my points, i just checked. and pin Missile can take over pokes that are protected from stealth rocks and spikes, and also can do stuff if they have focus sashes/bands.

Here's another version of Linoone as done by Blue Harvest of Serebii. (I am giving her full credit for all this) :


[Only admins are allowed to see this image] (M) @ Sitrus Berry
Trait: Pickup
EVs: 172 HP / 252 Atk / 40 Def / 44 SDef
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Belly Drum
- ExtremeSpeed
- Seed Bomb
- Shadow Claw

Bulky Sitrus Berry Linoone sweeps so easily, and so quickly its probably
the game finisher in two thirds of my games. Its deceptively bulky with
340 / 168 / 169 defenses (giving it around 100/65/65 defenses) so it
can usually Belly Drum right in the face of STAB moves. Sitrus Berry
means to KO me after a drum you need to do 75% or more.. something
surprisingly few Pokemon are capable of. Seed Bomb is for unaware
Quagsire, Rhyperior, Blastoise, etc. Extremespeed has +2 Priority now so
there were no need for speed EVs.


(And yes, I just realized that this is exactly what 49th said 0_o)

I believe you want Gluttony on that set bro :3

Also, after double-checking stuff,
A. 99% of people don't runs Sash out of a Lead role
B. Focus Band is marked as a "Hax Item', and it is consequently considered to be illegal under standard clauses.
C. Unlike Pin Missile, Seed Bomb actually hits stuff that this poke faces problems with, as mentioned by whathisface .-.

People, Now ill be doing Doubled Sets and Singled Sets!


Now The First one is extremely NU



[Only admins are allowed to see this image]its A Bibarel! Dont be angry. its really good. check it out.

Doubled X (Bibarel) (M) @ Soft Sand

Trait: Simple

EVs: 255 Atk / 255 Spd

Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)

- Curse

- Superpower

- Waterfall

- Bulldoze



Now To impress You. Why does it have Bulldose? Curse decreases speed. And The Soft Sand gives bulldose a supportive power. and lowers speed of opponents from Curse. So That way its quicker when Its Waterfall strikes matching its type. But it also has a Helper in Double Battles! Simple is also An amazing ability fitting this set. And Superpower is useful when in a big threat. But make sure before you activate superpower that defence and attack are in good shape!



Here is the Staller's Best Friend!



[Only admins are allowed to see this image]

TripleDrill (Dodrio) (M) @ Power Herb

Trait: Early Bird

EVs: 255 Atk / 255 Spd

Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)

- Sky Attack

- Acupressure

- Brave Bird

- Thrash



Sky Attack is activated immetitly from Power Herb. but Acupressure Supports 2 things about Bibarel. Simple and And its Stats. Brave Bird and Thrash are Backup moves if the acupressure and Sky attack already do its thing.

Mmk, here we go. First of all, Rotom kills both of these guys easily. Tbolt/Discharge hurts both of them, he resists Flying and is immune to Fighting/Normal/Ground, and can burn both of them, essentially crippling them.

On a more individual note, why run Soft Sand on him? In fact, why run Bulldoze? Water+Normal has almost perfect neutral coverage in NU (provided Ferroseed and Frillish are placed there), and you aren't going to really be outspeeding anything with you at essentially -2 and them at -1. Also, why run Superpower on a Curse set, on Bibarel no less? And why run Jolly and max speed? A Curse set is kinda not supposed to fast, it's supposed to be bulky. Careful Nature with max sp.def and hp would be safer. If you want a faster attacker use Work Up.

On to Dodrio, why run Adamant? Take advantage of his 100 base stat, use Jolly. Also, Power Herb+Sky Attack is extremely gimmicky. 2 LO/CB Brave Birds do more than a Sky Attack+Brave Bird any day. Also, why Thrash? Double-Edge has the same BP, without the less-than-wonderful lock-in side effect. Lastly, Simple only affects the one with the ability, meaning Accupressure will only raise your stats on normal levels. If anything, a basic stall breaker set will work.
Dodrio (M) @ Leftovers/Life Orb
Trait: Early Bird
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Brave Bird
- Return/Double-Edge
- Taunt
- Roost/Faint Attack

This is really the best he can do with his movepool. Brave Bird and Return/Double-Edge offer up some stab, and Taunt prevents people from healing/setting up/hitting him with status moves. Roost allows you to maintain some health, but Faint Attack allows you to scare off Rotom.

im ignoring everybody who says "do 4/252/252", its just rediculous

Elaborate. How is getting an extra point for nothing ridiculous?

._____.

inb4 49 Explodes

and @UltimateLatios,
Have you even tried it yet? Have you even thought about it? I don't want to sound like an asshole, but you look like a noob when you put those stats. It's hard to take you seriously whenever you place that spread, I used to do that before I found out that you don't have to put 255/255, you can put 252 and get the exact same max stat. I know it's just one lousy point, but it's one lousy point that should rather be used than not used.
._.




inb4 I'm ignored....

inb4 I say inb4 again ._.

listen. ill try to tell the truth. i Did max out stats. the problem is that is that when my stats dont go to 255. my Power of sp attack and attack skills would be weekened and i wouldn't win all of my battles that i won

I really hope you get it this time. I really, really do. I took pictures, like a picture book. ._.


[Only admins are allowed to see this link]

This is with no change, I even used Latios, your favorite pokemon.


[Only admins are allowed to see this link]

This is with a 255/255 spread look VERY FUCKING CLOSE at the stats right now. I think its 359 for spec. att. and 319 for speed.


[Only admins are allowed to see this link]

Here is with a 4/252/252, look at the stats, it's the exact same stats as with 255/255. It doesn't change. And now I have an extra point in HP.

HOW DO YOU EVEN DO THAT?!

Post Pictures? SearchT told me...

no.... THE POINT IT WONT LET ME ADD IT

What point? I literally have no idea what you mean when you say "that point"...

the EVS....

What EV's? Where? Spec. Att.? Speed? How many? I'm really, really lost...

>.< THE ONE EXTRA POINT ON ANY EVS

You put 4/252/252 spread. This is what we've been trying to tell you the whole time...

okay... ill explain wht im saying.



When i try to put the points in. it goes back to normal 0. Understand NOW?!

Nope.

Did you check to make sure the previous 255/255 were erased? because it won't allow you to have 514 EVs ._.
