Counter That Pokemon! - Round 20

RE: Counter That Pokemon! - Round 16

Cresselia @ Leftovers
252 HP/252 Def/4 Sp Att
Bold
Levitate

- Calm Mind
- Psyshock
- Ice Beam
- Moonlight

Cresselia lols at all of Mamoswine's attacks (Icicle Crash is a 4HKO) and can simply set up its Calm Mind. Really not much to explain.

Rotom-W @ Leftovers
Levitate | Modest
252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpA
-Volt Switch
-Hydro Pump
-Will-O-Wisp
-Pain Split

This physically defensive Rotom-W works excellently against Mamoswine as a physical wall. Stone Edge 3HKOs after SR, and Rotom-W can choose to use Hydro Pump (OHKO) or burn it and heal itself with Pain Split to give itself more longevity in a realistic match.

252+ Atk Life Orb Mamoswine Stone Edge vs. 252 HP / 252 Def Rotom-W: 117-139 (38.48 - 45.72%) -- guaranteed 3HKO after Stealth Rock

4 SpA Rotom-W Hydro Pump vs. 4 HP / 0 SpD Mamoswine: 408-482 (112.7 - 133.14%) -- guaranteed OHKO

Edit: For even more bulk, a Bold Nature can be used over Modest, but it isn't needed.

Scizor@Choice Band
Technitian | Adamant
248 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Spe
-Bullet Punch
-U-Turn
-Superpower
-Pursuit

Ice Shard can't do much to Scizor because resist, and CB STAB Technitian Bullet Punch is going to ohko any Mamoswine with no defensive investment. With priority on Scizors side, Mamo can't do anything.

;( fine tdl
 
RE: Counter That Pokemon! - Round 16

Scizor can't switch in.

Stealth Rock: 12.5%
Earthquake: 68.2% - 80.5%
Ice Shard: 13.7% - 16.3%

Mamoswine has about a 60% chance of beating Scizor.
 
RE: Counter That Pokemon! - Round 16

TPO3 gets 2 points.
Chillarmy gets one point.
The Yoshi gets 2 points.

Astra gets -17 points because he forgot about this game.

Round 17

Infernape @ Expert Belt
Trait: Iron Fist
EVs: 176 Spd / 252 Atk / 80 HP

- Close Combat
- Flamethrower
- U-turn
- Mach Punch

Send me any ideas for future rounds because I'm running out of them. ._.
 
RE: Counter That Pokemon! - Round 17

Wait Rotom-W doesn't work as a counter? I thought it worked well against Mamo. Anyway:

Hippowdon @ Leftovers
Sand Stream | Impish
252 HP / 244 Def / 12 SpD
-Earthquake
-Slack Off
-Whirlwind
-Stealth Rock

Takes all of Infernape's attacks and fires back with Earthquake. If you are feeling more stallzy then you can set up SR and heal off the damage with Slack Off.

0 SpA Infernape Flamethrower vs. 252 HP / 12 SpD Hippowdon: 136-162 (32.38 - 38.57%) -- 67.41% chance to 3HKO after Stealth Rock

0 Atk Hippowdon Earthquake vs. 80 HP / 0 Def Infernape: 314-372 (100.31 - 118.84%) -- guaranteed OHKO

Edit: TormenTran for a future round XP
 
RE: Counter That Pokemon! - Round 17

Jellicent (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Water Absorb
EVs: 248 HP / 200 Def / 60 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Shadow Ball
- Will-O-Wisp
- Scald
- Recover

Takes nothing from CC and Mach Punch and resists Flamethrower.

Also maybe change it to
Overheat/Fire Blast
CC
Stone Edge
HP Grass/Grass Knot

it will be harder do counter.

Gyarados @Lefties
Intimidate
EVs: 204 Atk, 128 Def, 176 Spe
-Dragon Dance
-Ice Fang
-Waterfall
-EQ

Switches in, Intimidate lowers Ape's attack. Infernape finds it hard to damage Gyara. Gyara can set up on Ape with DD, or simply kill it with Waterfall/EQ straight away.

edit: added gyara sprite

Also for an idea maybe do Uber Pokemon and we counter them? Not sure if the counter would have to be viable in Ubers or OU but maybe worth a think.
 
RE: Counter That Pokemon! - Round 17

Salamence @ Leftovers
Intimidate
252 Att/252 Spe/4 HP
- Dragon Dance
- Dragon Claw
- Earthquake
- Fire Fang

Infernape can't touch Mence while Mence sets up or kills.
 
RE: Counter That Pokemon! - Round 17

Mine was stoled. :(

Chandelure @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Flash Fire
Nature: Modest (-Atk, +SpA)
252 SpA/252 Spe/4 HP
-Fire Blast
-Shadow Ball
-HP Fighting
-Energy Ball

Comes in on Infernape, sponges 3/4 moves, and double resists the 4th. Can 2HKO with Shadow Ball, iirc.

EDIT: Also could have Psychic over Energy Ball, but Energy Ball is better for hitting more things.

Resists all 4 of the moves and sets up with impunity.
 
RE: Counter That Pokemon! - Round 17

Bippa, maybe put limitations on counters eg Scarf Haxorus "Your counter may not be a steel type".
 
RE: Counter That Pokemon! - Round 17

no, this round is to tell people that Infernape sucks and people shouldn't use it

We'll see about that. I'm more concerned right now about working on finding sets for future rounds first.

I'm sorry, but Infernape has always done well for me in my teams. You just picked a bad set.

Gliscor @ Toxic Orb
Trait: Poison Heal
Impish Nature
252 HP/180 Def/76 Spd
-Earthquake
-Protect
-Substitute
-Toxic

Pretty much laughs at all of Infernape's moves, since the ape's SpAtk is uninvested. It can infinitely stall and slowly kill with Toxic or just KO with Earthquake.
 
RE: Counter That Pokemon! - Round 17

Points for everyone! Shadow Scyther and PellOfTheTundra get two points!

Terrakion @ Choice Scarf
Justified | Jolly
4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
-Stone Edge
-Close Combat
-X-Scissor
-Rock Slide

Out speeds Volcarona after a boost and KOs with Stone Edge. If you feel miss hax coming on, then just use Rock Slide to KO it as well. Giga Drain does not OHKO in the sun after SR, so Terrakion comfortably KOs.

252 SpA Life Orb Volcarona Giga Drain vs. 4 HP / 0 SpD Terrakion: 239-283 (73.76 - 87.34%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Stealth Rock

252 Atk Terrakion Stone Edge vs. 0 HP / 4 Def Volcarona: 916-1084 (294.53 - 348.55%) -- guaranteed OHKO

252 Atk Terrakion Rock Slide vs. 0 HP / 4 Def Volcarona: 688-816 (221.22 - 262.37%) -- guaranteed OHKO
