Doesn't happen, Healing Wish is for balance/offense teams that need to bring back a sweeper.

Stall just uses regular Wish and/or better preserves walls they need to keep alive.
>>
>>24809161
Name a well-known 1500+ stall team with healing wish and you get a free internet blowjob.

No balance, no semi-stall, just your sandstorm/toxic shenanigans.
>>
>>24809198
It wouldn't even matter, because there's fast enough Healing Wish / Lunar Dance users out there right now, and they're not prominently featured on stall because all stalls need all the movesets they can get.
>>
A fast physical Fairy-type. The closest thing we have is Granbull, which is a great physical Fairy but is pretty slow and being fragile doesn't help it.

A fast physical Electric-type. We have Luxray that doesn't need HP Ice because of Ice Fang, but it suffers the same problems that Granbull.

How would a field effect that reverses any healing (take damage instead) for say 4-5 turns do to the meta?

Risky; lots of competitive mons, including those on your own team, rely a lot on Leftovers and 50% moves to regain health.

Wouldn't be surprised if Gamefreak made such a move though.
>>
>>24809232
Would a Black Sludge, for example, heal a non-poison type mon, or would it just work normally? It seems like an interesting idea.
>>
A physical electric type that doesn't suck.

A pokemon for every unique type combination.

A pokemon for every hardly used combination, but with the opposite role of the pokemon that already exists. For example, there's only one fire/steel mon (heatran) who's slowish and bulky but powerful. Make another fire/steel mon but fast and frail, and so on.

More offensive ice types like weavile and mamoswine. No more defensive ones!

More Defiant and competitive users!

I want a Defiant pokemon with Ice shard, preferably Ice/Fighting so it can use Mach Punch too.

I'd also like a Special Fighting type with both Competetive and Vacuum Wave. Actually, can we just have more special Fighting Types in general? Lucario doesn't do much for me, and Keldeo's movepool and design are ass.

Unphazable pokemon. The only way I can think to do this is a Fairy/Ghost type with Magic Bounce, that way it's immune to Circle Throw and Dragon Tail, while Magic Bounce makes you immune to Roar/Whirlwind.
>>
>>24809121
Dude you wanna the fuck fuckin' die?
>>
Bug/Water type that's better than Surskit

Fairy Type with Vital Spirit, that way it can shit on Darkrai.

Something that can counter Mega-Fug without needing more than 700 BST. (probably a Fairy/Electric type with Levitate and good defenses)

Fast Special Rock type with Power Gem.

Pokémon that neutralizes other poke's abilities.

>Unphazable pokemon

Suction Cups firmly anchors the body. This Ability prevents the opponent from forcing a switch—or in the wild, ending the battle—with Roar, Whirlwind, Dragon Tail, or Circle Throw.
>>

>lelta stream
fairy/ice is the only answer
>>
>>24809583
Well, can we have a suction cups pokemon that doesn't suck?

No offense, but Cradily isn't exactly threat of the year and has a pretty bad defensive typing.

This is what I want. A special version of Weavile could be nice, too.

Basically a fast/strong Rock or Steel type.

How the hell would it suck without sucking?

>>24809556
Is:
Dude the duck you wanna fuckin' die?

Because Pressure makes more sense on Weavile, anon. It's not that we hate Ice-type, it's just that it's thematically difficult! :^)

I was about to suggest Sniper instead, but it turns out Technician Frost Breath dishes out just as much damage.

Sniper really needs a buff or something.

Slurpuff is a fast physical Fairy after it sets up.

well if Bastiodon wasnt fucking garbage

>mold breaker for abilities
My hope for Mega Zygarde. Passively removes their effects, Serene Grace doesnt boost effects, Sheer force is disabled etc. etc.
"When this pokemon is on the field, the Abilities of opposing Pokemon are negated. This ability does not effect Multitype, Imposter, Forecast, Slow Start, or Truant" (for balance purposes)
>>
>>24809508
>I'd also like a Special Fighting type with both Competetive and Vacuum Wave.
Well not competitive, but goddammit this is what I wanted Mienshao to be.
130 Sp. Attack, 95+ speed, defenses rivaling that of Shuckle's offensive stats, access to Aura Sphere ...

Or at least a fucking +Sp. attack/Accuracy option.
>togekiss gets Aura Sphere
>Mienshao doesnt, and its Sp. Attack is average anyway
>>
I'd like a physical Electric move that isn't ass.
>>
>>24809879
>Or at least a fucking +Sp. attack/Accuracy option.
Fucking this. There needs to be a move to boost Sp.A/Speed or Sp.A/Accuracy like DDance or Hone Claws
>>
>>24809141
Prankster Parasect
I don't care that it already has three abilities.
>>
A fully evolved pokemon who use Hustle wisely ( Durant is kinda what I want but he doesn't evolve, so he as shit stats )

An Ice/Fire special glass canon, who's very glass ( every mach punch kills it ) but very canon. ( can sweep with flamethrower and ice beam , doesn't need to try risky things like fire blast / Blizzard ) Sheer force could help.

A realy horrific Arena trap pokemon

Others Gale wings abusers

It's now Hidden Hazard. Hidden power typed stealth rock. You're welcome.

>>24810539
You'd be surprised what that fucker can bulk. It's just not sitting in OU any time soon with its ass for anything else but movepool.
>no good offence

why bother.

Give it bullet punch and we might talk.
>>
>>24810625
>Hidden Hazard
Awesome so I'll have absolutely no fucking idea what typing to avoid in building teams.

>>24810536
Electric would be nice. Hits -/flying types for 25% but only a handful for 50, plus Ground-types dont worry about them. Of course, then Claydol and Gliscor are still 100% immune to hazards and Skarm is fucked by Shock Traps... but its a worthy trade off. Invisible Icicles would be better though because fuck 'chomp.
>>
>>24810482
Protean implying you can change your type within the limitations of your movepool to better tank your opponent

This won't do much competitively, and I'm not even sure if this is the right thread, but distribute the elemental Hyper Beams to Pokemon that aren't starters, such as Octillery, Magmortar, Vileplume (?) etc.
