Not bad at all! But Weakness Policy Dragonite is really funny too. I'd try it out.

[BlackDragonSlayer]

I don't think Choice Band and First Impression is the best pairing.

[Nebbles]

Yeah, I'd slap Lefties on Golisopod instead.

[mikey]

oh is he forced into struggle

I don't think Choice Band and First Impression is the best pairing.

Just what I was thinking. Pretty sure it would use Struggle, but quick research isn't bringing up anything on what happens if you used Fake Out while choiced.

In Bug-team news, Scolipede is being struck from my team 'cause you can't get HA Venipede in S/M. Taking a look at Vikavolt and Butterfree (thanks Noc) now.

EDIT: Also probably gonna run non-Mega Scizor 'cause I like things simpler.

erm what

well I think it's safe to conclude at least that golisopod is definitely a top tier pokemon

I've been running Golisopod a lot lately and he's ok but his ability really hinders him. First Impression is gdlk tho

[mikey]

you have to play around it.  I do think he works best as a bulky bander because it turns his ability into a free switch.  Specifically with priority moves because it works as a way to break the band

Just checked the GTS for a Lunala and there was one offered for a Porygon Z.
Luckily I had one and I got it, and I can't believe it!
Actually, it's Adamant and has horrible IVs. Now I believe it xD

[Nebbles]

lmao DAMN, rip that lunala

[DocDoom2]

On a luckier note I got my Atk, Def, Sp Def IV and Careful nature Buzzwole in about 5 SRs (Yes, it's a weird assault vest set I want xD)!

[Dekkadeci]

Buzzwole's pretty well off running bulky sets, so Careful is worth it, IMO.
