Blissey never gets the chance to use Ice Beam because Salamence 2HKO's with Brick Break. Once as it switches in, and again because I am faster. Obviously I need prediction for this, but it also works if the Blissey is weakened as Draco Meteor + Brick Break does about 70%.In other news Electivire 2HKOs everything that switches in on the move that hits them SE.
Too bad that usually only happens once.
Oh yeah, and Blissey and Cress totally own you with Ice Beam thanks to you eating up 10% of your health every time you attack. Nevermind what Stealth Rock+Life Orb does to your HP.
This is a generic Life Orb set with Mediocre speed. Pray to God Garchomp doesn't come in on the wrong move: (Read: Not Draco Meteor) and rape you with its own Draco Meteor or Dragon Claw.
270 speed only works if you're using a Choice Scarf and are intent on beating Hera. CB Hera are usually Jolly, Scarf Hera are usually Adamant.
Also, your Draco Meteor reading on Cradily looks out of whack. If anyone is using Cradily, its probably because they have Sandstorm up. In Sandstorm, that Draco Meteor gets bumped down to 31-38% on 252 HP/0 Sdef Careful.
Again, Generic Life Orb set on a capable mixed attacker. Totally Groundbreaking...
I repeat my earlier statement: Electivire 2HKO's everything that switches in to a move that hits it SE.Blissey never gets the chance to use Ice Beam because Salamence 2HKO's with Brick Break. Once as it switches in, and again because I am faster. Obviously I need prediction for this, but it also works if the Blissey is weakened as Draco Meteor + Brick Break does about 70%.
I agree with pretty much everything you say.I repeat my earlier statement: Electivire 2HKO's everything that switches in to a move that hits it SE.
I suppose in plainer speak, that means "this set requires immense prediction prowess." Yeah, Brick Break 2HKO's Bliss. Draco Meteor doesn't and Fire Blast and Crunch certainly don't.
Draco Meteor + Crunch 2HKOs Cress, but BB + Anything doesn't.
Also, I didn't say the set was mediocre, I said it was generic. This set is basically the ChainChomp set everyone has been raving about, only with higher SA and lower Attack.
This is the rather flawed part of your argument. Electivire does not 2HKO everything that switches into a move that hits SE on it. Bulky grounds come to mind, for example.Deck Knight said:I repeat my earlier statement: Electivire 2HKO's everything that switches in to a move that hits it SE.
We should all blame that japinese kid. Meteor rain... What were you thinking!?See what you have done, Gamefreak, with the introduction of the move Draco Meteor? :(
I thought Draco Meteor was already in the game, and they had a contest for somebody to name the move?To begin with Draco Meteor was a fanmade move.
It wasn't part of the original game but they had a competition for someone to invent a new move. Basically you can thank some snot nosed kid out there for it.
Without Crunch of course.Yeah it was, its like leafstorm. Its just a dragon typed overheat.
And Cress makes a good counter this set.
