Pokémon Rate My Team

Wall for -RisingManectric- (page 5)

Specifically I’d mean Walking Wake since
244 SpA Choice Specs Tera Water Walking Wake Hydro Steam vs. 252 HP / 140+ SpD Milotic in Sun: 127-150 (32.2 - 38%) -- 96.7% chance to 3HKO
and Milotic has Mirror Coat, not stuff like Venusaur and H-Lilligant.

I don’t know. Maybe because it’s a decent check to Darkrai and Sun.

Toxtricity-Low-Key @ Grassy Seed  
Ability: Technician  
Tera Type: Poison  
EVs: 252 HP / 120 SpD / 136 Spe  
Calm Nature  
- Magnetic Flux  
- Trailblaze  
- Charge Beam  
- Stored Power

I just recently learned that Toxtricity's Low-Key form gets Magnetic Flux, which is most likely why it doesn't have Shift Gear. Made this set for NU Grassy Terrain teams, though it will probably just stay in the ideas bin in the teambuilder...

Sun just got banned from NU and there will be a Mew suspect coming up so that's good

Oh yeah i forgot about the move cuts, that makes more sense.

Oh OK that's interesting to know. Mew in NU is so shocking especially considering the demon sets got better with Tera. I'm pretty sure Slowbro failed to get banned from its suspect test though so Lycanroc will probably be fine. I'm not super well educated on OU but I know Pincurchin is a bad terrain setter for Quark Drive centric hyper offense teams that use stuff like Iron Valiant, Moth, Crown etc. Talonflame is a defog user for stall teams, it has stab Overheat to threaten gholdengo but most stall teams just prefer to use 4 boots users + gliscor + another knock Off absorber like Hydrapple so I expect it to be unranked since it doesn't fit with the most popular stall playstyles it used to be used on. I have no clue what Muk and Milotic are doing there

Specs scovillain is interesting, I thought the main set would've been something like Growth since scovillain doesn't have many good coverage options. Do you think sun is the most pressing issue in the meta or do you think something else is more deserving of tiering action

Thank you! Also I don't really follow Gen 9 NU much but I do know that heat rock and ninetales have been banned a couple of times only to be unbanned later and then banned again or restricted in some way. Is sun a controversial aspect of the metagame or do you find it to be stable?

Oh yeah you're right, looking back on it I think Flip Turn is a better option than Liquidation as a whole since you can still do damage whilst avoiding any bad matchups. I'll edit that now thanks for letting me know
