Weather teams have always been good meta
I remember though when I played not many people used Sun teams, could beat them ok. Rain teams were harder even though swift swim was uber and not allowed
Well before Charizard Y, you only access to drought was Hidden ability Ninetails (which isn’t even that great) or groudon which would have pushed you up into Ubers
Ninetales is alright if you use it as a wall instead of trying to destroy anything with it
Or it was anyway
You mean curse ninetails?
The sun would cut its weakness by half when it comes out too
Well water but is still bad against ground, and earthquake is one of the most common attacks in meta
I’m not saying it was all bad, it just got completely outclassed in the one niche it had xD
It is. I used to like using an arena trap dugtrio with a focus sash
Dugtrio is weak as he'll but it's fast and it's stab eq will kill anything weak to it
Can dugrtio learn flail? I’ve honestly never really used it before
Flail? You only flail when you have no pp left
No that’s struggle
Oh. Oops
Flail is where you do more damage the less health you have
Hm. Idk, maybe. I can't remember what set I had. It was years ago >.<
That’s fair, flail is basically the reason people can do magikarp sweeps on full Uber teams
Belly drum Barton pass over to magikarp with focus sash and flail, adamant, max attack and speed, it can ohko a lot of big things
Yea baton pass smeargle was annoying. Don't think baton pass is in lets go though
Such a troll to use magikarp to do that though, could use basically anything xD
I feel like they have taken out a lot of the more interesting moves... can still use quiver dance butterfree though, might try and make that my next shiny
Copying me ;_;
Yes, ofc xD
Actually one of my all time favourites to use was quiver dance Volcarona
I really dk what to use as a third move on butterfree though. Psychic gives extra coverage against poison, but most poison are grass or bug which air slash gets anyway. Both air slash and psychic are good vs fighting. Shadow ball would give coverage against gengar but vs psychics bug buzz will usually be better anyway
I guess mega drain for rock nd ground is best
And water
But it's only 60 base attack
With no stab
Yea I love volcarona... Favourite bug type to use competetively
Never been a fan of genesect
Or forretress. Prefer ferrothorn
I was actually thinking more along the lines of sleep powder, gives you extra time to set up your dances
1/4 chance to miss
Still, butterfree is a glass cannon, so better then nothing
And facing a butterfree I'd switch, so you get one setup only
After sleep powder I'd switch I mean
Shame it can't learn spore
That would be so nice
