Alright guys, I'm sure you know that the debate over counters for Salamence is a super-duper-heated topic of discussion. Well, meztips and i were playing around with some mono-poke teams and guess what happened? We discovered the perfect counter to both Salamence and Rayquaza! Battle between Chthonic and meztips started! Rule: Unrated Rule: Sleep Clause Rule: Freeze Clause Rule: Evasion Clause meztips sent out Luvdisc! Chthonic sent out Salamence! Salamence intimidates the foe's Luvdisc! The foe's Luvdisc's Attack fell! Start of turn 1 The foe's Luvdisc used Ice Beam! It's super effective! Salamence lost 300 HP! (100% of its health) Salamence fainted! Chthonic sent out Salamence! Salamence intimidates the foe's Luvdisc! The foe's Luvdisc's Attack fell! Perish is watching the battle. Start of turn 2 The foe's Luvdisc used Ice Beam! It's super effective! Salamence lost 300 HP! (100% of its health) Salamence fainted! Chthonic: o.o Chthonic sent out Salamence! Salamence intimidates the foe's Luvdisc! The foe's Luvdisc's Attack fell! meztips: we've found our mence counter Start of turn 3 The foe's Luvdisc used Ice Beam! It's super effective! Perish: o.O Chthonic: the ultimate Salamence lost 300 HP! (100% of its health) Salamence fainted! Chthonic: mence counter Perish: holy Chthonic sent out Salamence! Salamence intimidates the foe's Luvdisc! The foe's Luvdisc's Attack fell! Start of turn 4 The foe's Luvdisc used Ice Beam! It's super effective! Salamence lost 301 HP! (100% of its health) Salamence fainted! Chthonic sent out Salamence! Salamence intimidates the foe's Luvdisc! The foe's Luvdisc's Attack fell! meztips: luvdisc sweep! Start of turn 5 The foe's Luvdisc used Ice Beam! It's super effective! Chthonic: woot Salamence lost 300 HP! (100% of its health) Salamence fainted! Chthonic sent out Salamence! Salamence intimidates the foe's Luvdisc! The foe's Luvdisc's Attack fell! Start of turn 6 The foe's Luvdisc used Ice Beam! It's super effective! Salamence lost 300 HP! (100% of its health) Salamence fainted! meztips won the battle! meztips: You can't ignore my girth! Chthonic: oh noes Chthonic: gg meztips: luvdisc > all meztips: gg Chthonic: yep Now would you look at that, Luvdisc is now the ultimate Mence counter. Unfortunately, I forgot to save the log where he stomps my Rayquazas, but I can assure you that happened as well.
Luvdisc IS a counter though. With a focus sash, it can survive any attack that mence dishes out on the switch, unless there's rocks out. But if there are, focus band allows luvidisc to survive the hit just as well (Focus band is proven to work 115% of the time on luvdisc). And it revenge kills with ice beam! It's fool-proof!
Watch out from Flamethrower that can burn you! But remember that Luvdisc is banned from everythingm due to his ability to...destroy everything, like THE OverUsed top threat. Always remember to carry HP fire for Scizor, but then your Luvdisc would become really broken
there was no point to this thread. we already knew luvdisc>arceus therefore luvdisc>all other 492...duh
This thread is going to be ironic if Luvdisc will evolve into a water/steel with levitate and 105 speed in gen 5.
Very clever mate. I have to say though, and I'm not trying to be a total asshole, but the 'NU powning Ubers' thing is getting kinda old. But whatever, that's just me...
I use Scarf Luvdisc in Ubers Start of turn 34 Luvdisc used Surf! It's super effective! The foe's Groudon lost 25% of its health! (I left him at 1% of hp damn) The foe's Groudon burrowed its way under the ground! The sunlight is strong! The foe's Groudon restored a little HP using its Leftovers! Start of turn 35 Luck>Skill called zOMG (Luvdisc) back! Luck>Skill sent out Medicham! The foe's Groudon used Dig! Medicham lost 193 HP! (73% of its health) The sunlight is strong! The foe's Groudon restored a little HP using its Leftovers! Start of turn 36 Medicham used ThunderPunch! It had no effect! The foe's Groudon burrowed its way under the ground! The sunlight is strong! The foe's Groudon restored a little HP using its Leftovers! Start of turn 37 Medicham used ThunderPunch! The attack of Medicham missed! The foe's Groudon used Dig! Medicham lost 68 HP! (26% of its health) Medicham fainted! The sunlight is strong! The foe's Groudon restored a little HP using its Leftovers! Luck>Skill sent out zOMG! (Luvdisc) Start of turn 38 Luvdisc used Ice Beam! It's super effective! The foe's Groudon lost 26% of its health! The foe's Groudon fainted! Luck>Skill won the battle!
Hmm, a Luvdisc evo would be very funny ^^ I dunno though guys... if we're talking about Pokemon that need a new evo, I'd say Mightyena is right up there. I sense a new topic coming up...
Heh, of course, how silly of me to forget ^^ Linoone? Come off it mate. You'd be talking about something with reasonable defences and HP, which, if allowed to set up, could NOT be stopped. By anything, pretty much.
