---Pokemon Arena--- Round 3

[Blue Harvest]

Yes, it has to switch in.

5) You must be able to switch in and win 70% of the time or better.

[Ilan]

Can it switch in? It can't. But I don't know if we count that or not.

I don't if I should laugh or be sad.

EVEN with 0 EVs...
0 SpAtk Chandelure Shadow Ball vs 0 HP/0 SpDef Chandelure: 100% - 118.39% (Guaranteed OHKO)

252 SpAtk Chandelure (+SpAtk) Shadow Ball vs 0 HP/0 SpDef Blastoise: 50.17% - 59.2% (2 hits to KO)

blastoise is not a counter.
Edit oh wait... lol
252 SpAtk Chandelure (+SpAtk) Shadow Ball vs 252 HP/252 SpDef Blastoise (+SpDef) : 30.11% - 35.64% (3-4 hits to KO)
yep it is a counter.

If you look closely it says 252 SDef which stands for Special Defense.

Also, when I said sad I meant insulted. It was pretty humorous.

[Blue Harvest]

Blastoise is not 0/0, it is 252/252 Calm. It is 3-4HKOed and OHKOs back with Water gem Surf. It is a fine counter.

[Ilan]

oh nvm..

I though I pressed that sp.def button I will look more carefully on those calculations next time.

anyway
uncretivity cause I don't want to be ninja'd

Will-O-Wisp and Pain Split don't affect Chandelure. Haze...nothing. Shadow ball will hit dealing 29% (max damage) because of Kasib Berry. Let's assume that's the switch in. Shadow Ball from Chandelure deals 85% if we do the lowest amount. Another Shadow Ball which deals 58% (max damage) and Chandelure KOs next turn.

[Blue Harvest]

Let's assume that's the switch in.

You always do. You always assume you are switching in, and on the worst possible move.

I haven't done any calculations because I'm lazy, but I assume this works.

Chandelure's HP Fighting 4KOs while Crunch OHKOes 81% of the time if anyone doubts Snorlax's awesomeness.

Resists everything Lanturn has. Immune to Hydro Pump, Toxic and Thunderbolt. Meanwhile, Ferrothorn boosts it's medicore attack with a few sword dance. Then comes in power whip. Or it can go with toxic, protect and stalling while wearing lanturn down...

Eat your lum barries now Dragonite! Taunt prevents Dnite from setting up. So during your nice little rampage, I'll stall a turn with protect. Once you're done, ice punch up. Then ice punch. Then woo

Is this even a good counter?

-Aura sphere

Without sand, tyranitar loses most of its special bulk and becomes vulnerable to this feller here. Aura sphere will likely ohko tyranitar while Vacuum wave can quickly hurt it. It is also incredible on defense, quad-resisting both moves.

Challenge: no conkelder
