  49. [14:03] <bkc> tbh i'd just make scizor a scarf variant
  50. [14:03] <bkc> it helps with latios
  51. [14:03] <Cherub_Agent> dont want to miss the lecture
  52. [14:03] <bkc> and it also helps with np celebi
  53. 01[14:03] <ShakeItUp> Volt-Turn.
  54. [14:03] <bkc> who is a huge pain in the ass
  55. [14:03] <ninja> isnt CM latios very rare
  56. [14:03] <harsha2014> Hmm. What about opposing VoltTurn
  57. [14:03] <harsha2014> Oh ninja'd
  58. 01[14:03] <ShakeItUp> lol
  59. [14:03] <harsha2014> XD
  60. [14:03] <bkc> volt turn isnt that big a deal
  61. [14:03] <bkc> ferro's sr limits their switching
  62. [14:03] <DoughBoy> yeah I can see the team being weak to opposing Scizor except for Salamence
  63. [14:03] <+Nachos> i dont think latios is that bad of a problem
  64. [14:03] <Rewer> play good with mence
  65. [14:04] <Rewer> u can smash trought volturn
  66. [14:04] <+Nachos> he has scizoe + starmie
  67. [14:04] <bkc> plus scizor doesnt like taking iron barbs damage lol

  73. [14:04] <harsha2014> Lots of Rotom-W have HP Ice, so Mence doesn't help. I guess Ferrothorn is an adequate stop, though.

  103. 01[14:05] <ShakeItUp> especially cm latias
  104. [14:05] <bkc> latias is more worrying that latios bc its bulkier

  122. [14:06] <LizardMan> Sub CM Jirachi in rain looks a bit annoying.
  123. [14:06] <Keiran> pldh.net
  124. [14:06] <+Tomahawk> cause mence draco meteor doesnt do much after a quiver dance or two
  125. [14:06] <LizardMan> Since it can set-up on Ferro
  126. [14:06] <Rewer> tbh id change mence

  136. [14:07] <harsha2014> Does ScarfMoxie Mence carry Fire Blast?
  137. [14:07] <yee> still need to watch out for hp rock/ice
  138. 01[14:07] <ShakeItUp> cm latias sweeps for usre with hp fire. Bullet Punch + Starmie Ice Beam has no chasnce of koing after a calm mind.
  139. [14:07] <AceAttorney> most of the ones i met yes harsha
  140. [14:07] <DoughBoy> if he changes it to a moxiemence then wouldn't he have more trouble with volt turn?

  174. [14:08] <+Nachos> yeah moxie mence is a good idea
  175. [14:08] <harsha2014> I've been fucked by it a bunch of times
  176. [14:08] <harsha2014> lol
  177. [14:08] <Rewer> well yes it is its quite rare
  178. [14:08] <+Tomahawk> also subhydreigon
  179. [14:08] <Improbable> spdef tran
  180. [14:08] <+Tomahawk> if that even exists
  181. [14:09] <yee> hmm you could run a heatran somewhere
  182. [14:09] <harsha2014> SubHydreigon does well
  183. [14:09] <yee> oh lol
  184. [14:09] <ninja> in january 70% of latias had CM
  185. [14:09] <DoughBoy> starmie isn't going to be spining on ferro for long :o
  186. 01[14:09] <ShakeItUp> its on the analysis so it does exist now
  187. 01[14:09] <ShakeItUp> lol
  188. [14:09] <Improbable> counters latias to an extent
  189. [14:09] <+Nachos> it is #40 used on the ladder
  190. [14:09] <harsha2014> I use SubHydreigon too. :P
  191. [14:09] <+Tomahawk> also expert belt hydreigon
  192. [14:09] <Rewer> sub hydreigon too
  193. [14:09] <+Tomahawk> but not so much
  194. [14:09] <Rewer> dragons with fire move
  195. [14:09] <+Nachos> and even then, it usually has mono dragon move
  196. [14:09] <Rewer> in general
  197. [14:09] <Rewer> to be honest
  198. [14:09] <Rewer> lol
  199. [14:09] <Keiran> whats
  200. [14:10] <yee> you could run heatran over ferro and gastro over rotom-w if you want to cover everything
  201. [14:10] <+Nachos> isnt like every team weak to hydregion though on paper....
  202. [14:10] <harsha2014> Infernape can do a lot of damage and U-turn out on Rotom and Slowbro
  203. [14:10] <harsha2014> And switch on Starmie
  204. [14:10] <yee> yeah nachos
  205. [14:10] <Rewer> how does
  206. [14:10] <Rewer> nape
  207. [14:10] <+Tomahawk> how does starmie beat rotom
  208. [14:10] <Rewer> swith on stamire
  209. [14:10] <Rewer> lol
  210. [14:10] <+Nachos> unless you have blissey or jellicent if theyre not running dpulse
  211. [14:10] <yee> unless they have stuff like gastro
  212. [14:11] <+Tomahawk> he has slowbro, starmie, rotom
  213. [14:11] <yee> that can take hits all day
  214. [14:11] <+Tomahawk> infernape is not troubleseom
  215. [14:11] <harsha2014> But it's Specs Rotom
  216. [14:11] <+Nachos> yeah gastro works
  217. [14:11] <bkc> how is ape a problem
  218. [14:11] <harsha2014> So he can U-turn out
  219. [14:11] <Rewer> he has
  220. [14:11] <bkc> he has rotomw, slowbro, and starmie
  221. [14:11] <Rewer> slowbro
  222. [14:11] <+Nachos> but hes uncommon now with thund banned

  227. [14:11] <Rewer> regenerator bro
  228. [14:11] <Olympus> If you run heatran, he can drop fire blast on Mixmence for outrage to help take out Volcarona
  229. [14:11] <+Tomahawk> well then you say anything with uturn is troublesome
  230. [14:12] <+Tomahawk> because they can uturn out of their switchin
  231. [14:12] <Rewer> another problem
  232. [14:12] <%San_Pellegrino> moxie mence takes out volc, if he makes that change, olympus
  233. [14:12] <harsha2014> I guess so
  234. [14:12] <Rewer> but not so much
  235. [14:12] <Rewer> is
  236. [14:12] <Rewer> virizion
  237. [14:12] <Rewer> if well played
  238. [14:12] <yee> well depending on heatrans set
  239. [14:12] <yee> he may be able to stay in
  240. [14:12] <yee> scizor/mence check
  241. [14:12] <yee> although neither can switch in lol
  242. [14:12] <+Nachos> moxiemence also helps with viri
  243. [14:13] <+Nachos> +1 viri lives starmie ice beam
  244. [14:13] <harsha2014> We're assuming Scarf Mence and Heatran over Ferrothorn?
  245. [14:13] <DoughBoy> shouldn't specs rotom run grass? it isn't outspeeding those dragons

  261. [14:14] <yee> thats the only thing i cant think of any non bp-esque threats that leaves unchecked
  262. [14:14] <+Tomahawk> also scizor kinda takes on virizion
  263. [14:14] <harsha2014> Is Thunder Wave over Fire Blast on Slowbro a good suggestion?
  264. [14:15] <yee> you could have specially bulky sd if you wanna check it badly
  265. [14:15] <Rewer> with starmie no recover
  266. [14:15] <Rewer> u dont want ferro
  267. [14:15] <Rewer> to set up too much on you
  268. [14:15] <yee> and that allows you to paralyze virizion because it never OHKOes pro bro

  283. [14:17] <yee> btw this team has a great set of resistances
  284. [14:17] <Rewer> cm much better imo
  285. [14:17] <yee> yeah
  286. [14:19] <+Tomahawk> okay, so far:
  287. [14:19] <+Tomahawk> hp fire lati@s
  288. [14:19] <yee> heatran gastrodon starmie scizor scarfmence slowbro
  289. [14:19] <yee> we have hp fire latias covered with heatran gastro and scarfmence
  290. [14:19] <yee> and a bulky sciz would live at full health if needed
  291. [14:19] <+Tomahawk> volc
  292. [14:19] <+Tomahawk> subhyhdreigon
  293. [14:19] <+Nachos> virizion
  294. [14:20] <%San_Pellegrino> what heatran set
  295. [14:20] <yee> not sure yet
  296. [14:20] <bkc> air balloon works fine
  297. [14:20] <yee> but spD can take on volc, revenge with mence if it has hp ground
  298. [14:20] <%San_Pellegrino> i would run baloon
  299. [14:20] <yee> hydreigon is walled by gastro if its sub set
  300. [14:20] <yee> virizion cant OHKO anything off the bat assuming tran is defensive and is revenged by scizor or mence
  301. [14:20] <bkc> gastro beats cm latias with toxic too which is cool
  302. [14:20] <+Tomahawk> since when are heatran and gastrodon on the team
  303. [14:20] <yee> or fairly well countered by a bulky sciz
  304. [14:21] <yee> thats what i recommended to cover as many things as possible
  305. [14:21] <+Tomahawk> oh okay

  308. [14:21] <harsha2014> hmm.
  309. [14:23] <+Tomahawk> also i dont see why the gastrodon change is necessary
  310. [14:23] <%Aerrow> has the workshop started?
  311. [14:23] <yee> it gives him a switch to electric attacks
  312. [14:23] <harsha2014> Yea
  313. [14:23] <yee> rotom-w
  314. [14:23] <%San_Pellegrino> yes aerrow
  315. [14:23] <Olympus> to help deal with volt-turn
  316. [14:23] <%San_Pellegrino> gastro gives him a better defensive pivot than rotom-w
  317. [14:23] <yee> and subhydreigon/cm latias are walled by it
  318. 02[14:23] * AceAttorney (Mibbit@synIRC-6BCD9A0C.mc.videotron.ca) Quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
  319. [14:23] <%San_Pellegrino> and this really isn't a volt-turn team anyway
  320. [14:24] <+Tomahawk> heatran also beats cm latias
  321. [14:24] <+Tomahawk> but okay
  322. 02[14:24] * +kd24 (kd24@TAKE.YOUR.DAMN.CLOTHES.OFF) Quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
  323. [14:24] <harsha2014> But Heatran gets wrecked by SubHydreigon with Surf / Focus Blast
  324. [14:24] <bkc> heatran doesnt stop the momentum of volt turn
  325. [14:24] <bkc> and that
  326. [14:24] <DoughBoy> even with protect?
  327. [14:25] <bkc> i also like gastrodon because, as lizardman said, subcm rachi under rain is a dick to this team
  328. [14:25] <bkc> yes, even with protect
  329. [14:25] <yee> gastrodon wrecks subhydreigon though
  330. [14:25] <harsha2014> Yeah
  331. [14:25] <bkc> exactly
  332. [14:25] <+Tomahawk> k'
  333. [14:25] <bkc> heatran comes in on scizor u-turn
  334. [14:25] <bkc> landorus
  335. [14:25] <bkc> protect
  336. [14:25] <bkc> uturn
  337. [14:25] <bkc> oh wait its ebelt

  342. [14:25] <Rewer> like a baws
  343. [14:26] <%San_Pellegrino> i think the most relevant changes have been suggested already
  344. [14:26] <Olympus> can someone recap all the changes made up to this point.
  345. [14:26] <bkc> gastrodon i think
  346. [14:26] <%San_Pellegrino> gastro > rotom-w, scarfmoxie>LO, heatran > ferro
  347. [14:26] <yee> yes
  348. [14:26] <bkc> wait no why are we using heatran
  349. 02[14:26] * zebrAFK (~vrai@synIRC-E734944C.om.om.cox.net) Quit (Quit: )
  350. [14:26] <harsha2014> Yep
  351. [14:26] <Rewer> what tran set
  352. [14:26] <bkc> for volc?
  353. [14:26] <yee> to help with volc mostly yeah
  354. [14:27] <bkc> scarf mence + gastro both beat volc
  355. [14:27] <yee> well they can
  356. 01[14:27] <ShakeItUp> yeah why do we need heatran lol
  357. [14:27] <yee> but scarfmence isnt a counter
  358. [14:27] <Rewer> scarf mence wrecks volc
  359. [14:27] <yee> and gastro doesnt beat chesto rest
  360. 01[14:27] <ShakeItUp> scarfmence is good enough
  361. [14:27] <bkc> i would personally keep ferro because sr + spikes is awesome and shit
  362. [14:27] <harsha2014> Volc can set up on Gastro after one boost, can't it?
  363. 01[14:27] <ShakeItUp> not if u run eq
  364. [14:27] <bkc> toxic
  365. [14:27] <yee> you better hope rocks arent up
  366. [14:27] <Rewer> toxic
  367. [14:27] <%San_Pellegrino> he's not using spikes bkc
  368. [14:27] <+Tomahawk> i agree with bkc
  369. 01[14:27] <ShakeItUp> or toxic
  370. [14:27] <harsha2014> Oh, right
  371. [14:27] <Rewer> well
  372. [14:27] <bkc> yea but he should use them because spikes are good!
  373. [14:27] <yee> chesto rest doesnt care about eq or toxic
  374. [14:27] <Rewer> scarf mence has a useless 4th move be a weird guy and run rock slide
  375. 01[14:27] <ShakeItUp> scarfmence kills chestorest anyway
  376. 01[14:28] <ShakeItUp> lol
  377. [14:28] <Olympus> Heatran helps with sun in general, not just Volc's
  378. [14:28] <bkc> chestorest is walled by scarfmence
  379. [14:28] <bkc> rewer, it gets stone edge lol
  380. [14:28] <yee> that means switching your revenge killer into things
  381. 01[14:28] <ShakeItUp> it seems like we're changing too much stuff just to deal with volc
  382. [14:28] <Rewer> it misses
  383. 01[14:28] <ShakeItUp> -_-
  384. [14:28] <Rewer> :(
  385. [14:28] <yee> it takes like 30% from a fiery dance in sun
  386. [14:28] <yee> and rocks damage if those are up
  387. [14:28] <Rewer> make sure u spin then
  388. [14:28] <bkc> gastro + mence checks volc well enough for this team imo
  389. [14:28] <Rewer> because u need mence
  390. [14:28] <Rewer> and
  391. 01[14:28] <ShakeItUp> we are assuming
  392. 01[14:28] <ShakeItUp> too much
  393. [14:28] <Rewer> starmie etc
  394. 01[14:28] <ShakeItUp> with this volc
  395. [14:28] <bkc> i dont think we need to screw with the synergy any more
  396. 01[14:28] <ShakeItUp> we cant assume
  397. 01[14:28] <ShakeItUp> that volc is in sun
  398. 01[14:28] <ShakeItUp> with chesto rest
  399. [14:28] <yee> yes we can
  400. 01[14:28] <ShakeItUp> if we're assuming that we might as well assume
  401. 01[14:28] <ShakeItUp> it runs hp ground
  402. [14:29] <bkc> if volc is in sun, its running morning sun lol
  403. 01[14:29] <ShakeItUp> which can kill heatran
  404. 01[14:29] <ShakeItUp> -_-
  405. [14:29] <yee> we might as well assume someone is using one of the most common sets
  406. [14:29] <DoughBoy> if we can assume landorus has e-belt i think we can assume that...
  407. [14:29] <%San_Pellegrino> someone earlier said heatran was less set up bait compared to ferro
  408. [14:29] <yee> which is ridiculous
  409. [14:29] <+Nachos> if volc is in sun its running the bulky set which is the best volc set
  410. [14:29] <bkc> i don't think we need a counter AND two checks just to beat volcarona
  411. 01[14:29] <ShakeItUp> chestorest isnt even that common lol
  412. 01[14:29] <ShakeItUp> yeah i agree with bkc
  413. 01[14:29] <ShakeItUp> this is too much.
  414. [14:29] <bkc> two checks is fine imo
  415. [14:29] <bkc> how about, to compromise, we say we recommend:
  416. 01[14:30] <ShakeItUp> it's not like volcarona is like in the top 5 percent usage or anything, we dont need to overprepare for it this much.
  417. [14:30] <Rewer> gastro + slowbro + starmie is a bit redundant as well
  418. [14:30] <Rewer> how about
  419. [14:30] <yee> so tell me
  420. [14:30] <Rewer> tangrowth > slowbro
  421. [14:30] <Rewer> ?
  422. 01[14:30] <ShakeItUp> why
  423. [14:30] <yee> what is gonna handle venusaur?
  424. [14:30] <bkc> Gastrodon > Rotom-W, Scarf Moxie Mence > Mixed, (Optional) SpDef Heatran > Ferrothorn
  425. 01[14:30] <ShakeItUp> we dont need to change stuff unnecessarily
  426. [14:30] <yee> the waters are fine we have all the resists we need
  427. [14:30] <yee> the resist chart is great
  428. [14:30] <Rewer> well siup the synergy between the defensive core
  429. [14:30] <Rewer> must be good
  430. [14:30] <+Tomahawk> salamence handles venusaur
  431. [14:31] <yee> no it doesnt
  432. 03[14:31] * aceattorney (Mibbit@synIRC-6BCD9A0C.mc.videotron.ca) has joined #ratemyteam
  433. [14:31] <harsha2014> Under Sun, it can't.
  434. [14:31] <yee> it gets OHKOed by LO sludge bomb
  435. [14:31] <DoughBoy> sludge bomb?
  436. [14:31] <bkc> +2 sludge bomb wrecks it
  437. [14:31] <PenguinX> pretty sun lo sludge bomb kos
  438. [14:31] <harsha2014> mhm
  439. 03[14:31] * Scarfwynaut (Mibbit@synIRC-163ECE27.sctnpa.east.verizon.net) has joined #ratemyteam
  440. [14:31] <PenguinX> and then theres always the odd hp ice anyway
  441. [14:31] <yee> probably doesnt even need a boost
  442. 01[14:31] <ShakeItUp> we dont need to sacrifice ferrothorn for heatran
  443. [14:31] <yee> doesnt do a thing to subseed sets either
  444. 01[14:31] <ShakeItUp> to deal with 1 pokemon
  445. [14:31] <+Tomahawk> yh but eq koes heatran
  446. 01[14:31] <ShakeItUp> -_-
  447. [14:31] <Rewer> no one uses eq
  448. [14:31] <yee> so now volc and venusaur
  449. [14:31] <Rewer> actually
  450. [14:31] <Rewer> we could bring weather to this team
  451. 01[14:31] <ShakeItUp> 44 | Venusaur | 15987 | 4.137% | 12744 | 3.951%
  452. [14:31] <yee> its like were trying to patch up a sun weakness
  453. 01[14:31] <ShakeItUp> no reason to change 1 poke
  454. 01[14:31] <ShakeItUp> to deal with venusaur
  455. 01[14:31] <ShakeItUp> lol
  456. [14:31] <bkc> scarf tar?!?!?!
  457. [14:32] <yee> thats OU
  458. [14:32] <Rewer> yea perhaps
  459. [14:32] <harsha2014> lol
  460. [14:32] <bkc> i like scarftar its cool
  461. 01[14:32] <ShakeItUp> what poke are we changing for scarftar.
  462. [14:32] <yee> what does scarftar do for the team?
  463. [14:32] <bkc> checks venu, weather control
  464. [14:32] <harsha2014> Wait, so what do we have now? And were we serious about ScarfTar? o_o
  465. [14:32] <Rewer> helps against weather-dependant teams
  466. [14:32] <DoughBoy> life orb starmie in the sand :o
  467. [14:32] <bkc> stone edge does a shitload
  468. [14:33] <yee> thats a bad check to venu
  469. [14:33] <Olympus> How about scarf Terrakion oven mence
  470. [14:33] <Rewer> thats not meant to be a check to venu
  471. [14:33] <Rewer> u cancel sand
  472. [14:33] <Rewer> then switch
  473. [14:33] <Rewer> sun*
  474. [14:33] <bkc> scarf terra is a good idea......................
  475. 01[14:33] <ShakeItUp> it's just a venusaur, it's not that big of a problem. it's not on every team lol
  476. [14:33] <Rewer> (if not in the range for stone)
  477. [14:33] <bkc> beats volc, checks venu
  478. [14:33] <harsha2014> Yeah...
  479. [14:33] <+Nachos> ya
  480. [14:33] <yee> so lets lose to every one we see great idea
  481. [14:33] <+Nachos> what moves is this veny running
  482. 01[14:33] <ShakeItUp> u cant cover everything in this metagame
  483. 01[14:33] <ShakeItUp> x.x
  484. [14:34] <+Nachos> growth hp fire sludge grass move
  485. [14:34] <+Nachos> venu*
  486. 01[14:34] <ShakeItUp> and no we wont lose to every venusaur
  487. 01[14:34] <ShakeItUp> just those
  488. 01[14:34] <ShakeItUp> with sludge bomb
  489. [14:34] <yee> so lets cover less things?
  490. 01[14:34] <ShakeItUp> which isnt even
  491. 01[14:34] <ShakeItUp> seen on all of them
  492. 01[14:34] <ShakeItUp> x.x
  493. [14:34] <yee> subseed beats everything else
  494. [14:34] <Olympus> sleep powder is quite common on Vena too

  496. [14:34] <yee> what does ferro contribute?
  497. [14:34] <+Nachos> yeah everyone uses sleep powder because sleep is awesome in bw
  498. [14:35] <+Nachos> so thats less sludge bombs thrown around
  499. 01[14:35] <ShakeItUp> stealth rock.
  500. [14:35] <yee> heatran does too
  501. [14:35] <yee> oh btw cm reuniclus / tr rank
  502. [14:35] <yee> forgot about those
  503. [14:35] <Rewer> scizor
  504. [14:35] <yee> that just means bulkier sciz with roost IMO
  505. 01[14:35] <ShakeItUp> it lets him take rotom-w.
  506. [14:35] <+Nachos> yeah just make scizor bulky
  507. [14:35] <Rewer> beats reuniclus
  508. [14:35] <yee> yeah but its CB
  509. [14:35] <+Nachos> actually
  510. [14:35] <Rewer> it can take a hit
  511. [14:35] <Rewer> and ko
  512. [14:36] <Rewer> unless hp fire
  513. [14:36] <harsha2014> We already said change Scizor to bulky I think
  514. [14:36] <+Nachos> no, because he needs cb scizor
  515. [14:36] <+Nachos> actually idk
  516. [14:36] <harsha2014> Yeah, bulky CBZor
  517. [14:36] <+Nachos> he needs both lol
  518. [14:36] <yee> not bulky cb zor
  519. [14:36] <bkc> bulky uturn sd
  520. [14:36] <Scarfwynaut> use syther
  521. [14:36] <yee> he would need roost to actually take care of rank
  522. [14:36] <Olympus> TR with HP fire can be a problem
  523. [14:36] <Rewer> why uturn sd
  524. [14:36] <harsha2014> I see
  525. [14:36] <bkc> bluff cb early sweep late
  526. [14:36] <Rewer> he needs the boost priority
  527. [14:36] <bkc> iron plate
  528. [14:36] <yee> i like LO better personally
  529. [14:37] <yee> because u turn is so pathetic with iron plate
  530. [14:37] <+Nachos> you can kinda tell from the weak u-turn that it isnt cb though
  531. [14:37] <Rewer> yea
  532. [14:37] <Rewer> id keep cb
  533. [14:37] <Rewer> it does well
  534. [14:37] <Rewer> vs ranki
  535. 03[14:37] * blue|AWAY is now known as blue
  536. [14:38] <yee> roost sciz with bug bite does much better
  537. [14:38] <Rewer> cb priority is worth it imo
  538. [14:38] <bkc> where is that noob new world order
  539. [14:38] <harsha2014> I guess there's no need to switch out, and Bug Bite does more damage.
  540. [14:38] <harsha2014> And lol
  541. [14:38] <Rewer> "don't invoke the name"
  542. [14:39] <yee> what does he particularly need cb priority for?
  543. [14:39] <DoughBoy> terrakion?
  544. [14:39] <harsha2014> SD priority does the same thing, but better after the boost.
  545. [14:39] <harsha2014> :P
  546. [14:39] <yee> LO does that fine
  547. [14:39] <Rewer> dragons, terrakion, etc...
  548. [14:39] <Rewer> its just a better set
  549. [14:39] <yee> well assuming air balloon tran
  550. 01[14:39] <ShakeItUp> dragonite
  551. [14:39] <yee> he wont need to switch into dragons at all
  552. [14:39] <yee> cb doesnt exactly deal with that
  553. [14:40] <harsha2014> 20 minutes :o
  554. [14:41] <Rewer> 20 min fo what
  555. [14:41] <bkc> k so
  556. [14:41] <harsha2014> These smilies are obnoixious.
  557. [14:41] <bkc> how about we go with
  558. [14:41] <harsha2014> *obnoxious
  559. [14:41] <bkc> the original set of suggestions

  562. [14:41] <Rewer> yep
  563. [14:41] <Rewer> team is
  564. [14:41] <yee> and bulky sciz IMO
  565. [14:41] <bkc> that seems best to me
  566. [14:41] <harsha2014> Sounds good.
  567. 01[14:41] <ShakeItUp> it seems like we're changing too much lol
  568. 01[14:41] <ShakeItUp> but meh
  569. 01[14:41] <ShakeItUp> other than that.
  570. [14:42] <Olympus> looks good to me.
  571. 01[14:42] <ShakeItUp> 2 pokes and a set / another poke
  572. [14:42] <bkc> thats why i wanted to keep ferro but tran is too valuable

  575. [14:42] <bkc> if we keep it, it's weak to alot of shit
  576. [14:42] <yee> volc with a hidden power can 6-0 him if it hits mence
  577. 01[14:42] <ShakeItUp> .
  578. 01[14:42] <ShakeItUp> that's dumb logic
  579. [14:42] <Rewer> slowbro / gastrodon / starmie / scarf mence / heatran / scizor
  580. 01[14:42] <ShakeItUp> he could very well be running hp ground and kill heatran too
  581. 01[14:42] <ShakeItUp> -_-
  582. [14:42] <Rewer> i just dont like
  583. [14:42] <yee> yeah but he cant run both
  584. [14:42] <Rewer> slowbro / gastro / starmie
  585. [14:42] <Rewer> its
  586. [14:42] <Rewer> very redundant
  587. [14:42] <yee> you can cover ice punch luke
  588. [14:42] <bkc> 3 waters is kind of redundant...
  589. [14:42] <Rewer> but whatever
  590. [14:42] <+Tomahawk> maybe its tim,e for a new team
  591. [14:42] <+Tomahawk> js
  592. [14:43] <yee> and be weak to crunch
  593. [14:43] <bkc> hold on tomahawk
  594. [14:43] <bkc> lets finalize it
  595. 01[14:43] <ShakeItUp> yeah but can he run one
  596. [14:43] <bkc> so final team is
  597. 01[14:43] <ShakeItUp> so u cant say that he can be 6-0'd by hp rock volc
  598. 01[14:43] <ShakeItUp> x.x
  599. [14:43] <yee> what are you trying to say?
  600. [14:43] <bkc> Slowbro | Gastrodon | Starmie | ScarfMence | SpD Heatran | Bulky SD Scizor
  601. [14:43] <Rewer> tran is baloon
  602. [14:43] <bkc> yea my b
  603. [14:43] <bkc> balloon tran
  604. [14:44] <yee> he will only run the volc your weak to?
  605. [14:44] <bkc> lets end this, this is getting a bit ridiculous
  606. [14:44] <harsha2014> XD
  607. [14:44] <Rewer> well man scarf mence + gastrodon + tran
  608. [14:44] <Rewer> more than enough
  609. [14:44] <bkc> Slowbro | Gastrodon | Starmie | ScarfMence | Balloon Heatran | Bulky SD Scizor
  610. [14:44] <Rewer> coverage to volc
  611. [14:44] <Rewer> more is paranoid
  612. [14:44] <bkc> does that look good to everyone
  613. [14:44] <yee> i like that
  614. [14:44] <harsha2014> Fine by me
  615. [14:44] <%San_Pellegrino> okay
