STAB, Iron Head or Poison Jab for fairies, and then something to deal with Steels immune to Earthquake, if you want to have 4 attacks, I'd guess.

STAB Earthquake is only slightly less powerful than super effective Iron Head or Posion Jab and hits more targets.

If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?

Decidueye also gets Leaf Blade, so that's something else Long Reach affects.

There's also Sucker Punch if you want to surprise some low health Pokemon.

Hmm... I heard things about Crunch as a contingency against Lunala. But yeah, I have to admit I haven't seen it either. Fire Fang is a possibility, though.

... And that's called jazz!

Garchomp is in OU whereas Lunala is in Ubers.

Z-Fire Fang is not uncommonly run, though.

Huh. Don't remember where did I see that, so I can't say much. Pay me no mind, then. :p

So has Pokemon stopped making Mew clones with 100 stats across the board?

Seems like it.

Diancie and Marshadow both tick most of the boxes but have more specialized stats.

I sure said that!

Too bad that wasn't the case with Victini.

Or Manaphy.

I thought Hoopa would've been a Mew clone due to the fact that it was a similar size to past ones.

What's wrong with Mew clones?

100 stats across the board aren't really good any more due to power creep, and it only works for the couple it does because of a combination of great typing, ability and/or movepool.

And before you get all pissy about this response, you specifically asked for it.

I mean, 100/100/100 defenses are pretty decent, especially with reliable recovery, but 100 attack/special attack is pretty weak all things considered, and the 100 base speed tier isn't all that good anymore.

Not sure what you meant, but they just kinda stop doing Moveset Clone for Mew. I don't think they are even aware the Power Creep given the fact Mew and its Moveset Clone are banned in the official battle formats.

Mew and such are banned because they're event-only Pokemon, and Gamefreak thinks allowing players to use them would be an unfair advantage against those than missed the events. I doubt Gamefreak has really put much thought on exactly how strong and useful they would be if they were allowed.

Well, we got Silvally this gen after all, and that's 95% of a Mew clone...

#21620: Mar 6th 2017 at 6:28:19 PM

And Mew is 83% of an Arceus clone.

https://twitter.com/SerebiiNet/status/838963266990845952 so this is happening. Question, where will I see the link on GL to get the stones when in becomes available?

So to get the Mewtwo stones, I'd use my copy of Sun, right?

Sun or Moon, yes. Just type the code into the Serial Code option for Mystery Gift on the title menu and you're good.

After I Rage Quit from Pokemon Showdown! mainly because the simulator usually forgets the changes I make to my team and I always keep losing either to Trick Room teams or battles I shouldn't suppose to lose. I decided to try the Battle Spot. More specifically, the free battle mode.

What do you know, it's actually better. The teams are actually better than one I will encounter from the lower ladder (ugh). I win most of the time rather than the opposite.

and screw communication.
