  1. [quote="KaioNabuco, post: 7179867, member: 326943"]I have some problems with Dugtrio Stall, I think it's the best stall archetype available this meta. How do you guys deal with it?[/quote]

  7. I'm gonna start off my post with this replay because I feel like this replay best showcases how broken dugtrio is in this metagame. Many poor arguments for dugtrio is "low defense","It can't trap flying types". Dugtrio is able to trap most of the stall breakers in this metagame quite well and effectively. From Hoopa-U to Heatran dugtrio is able to remove em all. Dugtrio showcases how amazing it is mostly on balance and stalls. Being able to take out the measures for sableye,skarm,chansey and other members on his team with quite ease. The thing is some people say "Sableye is what makes dugtrio broken". That was proven wrong last gen with double defog teams putting on quite a show. ABR qualified with a altaria dugtrio trapping team quite nicely to showcase how stupid the mon was. Dugtrio was stupid last gen and is even more stupid this gen. It got an excellent atk boost making it be able to revenge/trap alot more mons easily and be able to run a scarf set for a more offensive meta(EB/LO Phermosa/Tapu Koko/DD Char X). Dugtrio doesn't need great defense cause it can hold on to its sash and kill what it needs as well. Dugtrio is a hit a goth level of cancer forcing some players to run shit like shed shell lele like some ran shed shell togekiss in oras when shadow tag was around. Dugtrio got so bad last gen thanks to tele's very popular dugtrio sableye stall even shed shell heatran was seen on ladder.

  11. Dugtrio is keeping playstyles alive and pretty disgustingly broken. It makes shed stall still viable and makes stall one of the hardest playstyles to break.

  13. I am done. Hopefully I made some good points. I will now list balance/stallbreakers dugtrio traps.

  26. P.S.

  28. I am not saying dugtrio can work on every playstyle easily fit and be stupid asf like genesect or lando I. The thing is what dugtrio does for the playstyles it fits on and benefits from is what makes it disgusting.
