![]() It walls RestTalk Body Slam Hitmonchan, after all. I expect that people will be able to get it to work if they try hard enough. Gastly I think is going to turn out to be decent. I'm curious as to whether Venomoth can somehow switch to a Sleep Talk set itself as an adaptation without losing too much efficacy. In fact, I would expect that Body Slam Hitmonchan is going to nerf Venomoth by a huge amount, since it was one of Venomoth's main opportunities to switch in and start wreaking havoc before without having to risk paralysis against Tangela for example, but now most teams seem to have fat Pokemon that can deal with Venomoth pretty easily. But this weakness can probably be overcome since Body Slam Hitmonchan can probably paralyse it now. There are some Pokemon it doesn't deal with well, like Psychic Venomoth. I think now that the metagame has shifted away from Elekid a bit, it is finally showing up.īeedrill I think is very hit-or-miss. Seaking is a Pokemon I expected to be really good as well, but it hadn't seemed to be living up to the hype so much. I really like the Magcargo set, simultaneously boosting your Fire Blast and also nerfing Surf Furret (thanks to Magcargo's actually decent SpDef stat for a Rock-type) sounds like it could potentially be very useful. Snubbull can also fit well on offensive teams with their weakness to status moves Heal Bell is a hugely useful tool for Pokemon like Curse Surf Furret. Beedrill can be similarly good with Substitute and Swords Dance Geodude has a great STAB Combo and can break open holes for teamates with Explosion. It has serious downsides being fragility, Murkrow weakness, and all around inconsistency.īoth of these are threatening with the right support and can become difficult to stop if your team is paralysed. Gastly is not amazing atm and seems to be getting dropped on most teams. Agility sets seem to have success as well. It’s really tough to switch into Body Slam since a lot of stuff that naturally checks it is ruined by paralysis, Murkrow and Venomoth being good examples. Hitmonchan has really established itself as a top Pokemon with Body Slam now legal on it. ![]() Seaking is a hugely threatening offensive threat with decent coverage, Sub Seaking in particular can do well vs defensive teams. I’ve been using a more offensive set with Fire Blast/Sunny Day/Rest/Sleep Talk that can work well vs quite a lot. Magcargo is one of the best defensive Pokemon available, and I think it’s virtually mandatory on defensive teams. These two are very good, and I think both could be moved up to A. Just gonna make a few nominations after playing this tier more. (READ: This VR has not been updated post Hitmonchan ban PUBL Welcome to the GSC PU Viability Rankings!
