---Pokemon Arena--- Round 3

[Ghosts of the Forums]

BH decided a while back to make a new thread every so often (like after 1000 posts, or 1500 in this case) and delete the old Pokemon Arena threads to prevent this from turning into a +1 postcount thing. Since the old one was deleted, all posts in the thread stop counting towards your postcount.

that hardly seems fair. i don't post just so my posts get deleted and my count lowered. i might just boycott this thread.

to the above poster.

that is the worst victini set i have ever seen. it is completely checked and forced out by any pokemon with flash fire or who resists fire.

Lanturn was intended for Magmortar but you ninjad me:/

[Ghosts of the Forums]

i know that. are you going to post or not?

[Blue Harvest]

that hardly seems fair. i don't post just so my posts get deleted and my count lowered. i might just boycott this thread.

So you're saying the only reason you posted was to have your postcount boosted?

[Ghosts of the Forums]

nope. i post for the fun and mental challenges. the post count boost is icing on the cake.

[YourPermanentRecord631]

minimum damage from focus blast is 135.7%. not a counter.

[Blue Harvest]

nope. i post for the fun and mental challenges. the post count boost is icing on the cake.

In which case post count should not matter to you. You join a forum to make posts and enjoy the company of others who enjoy what you do, not to watch a postcount number go up.

Also postcount is meaningless. I was modded at 150 posts lol. Who cares how many times you post, you get respect for making GOOD posts not "lots" of them.

Lol, go for it, broski. This thread is just for fun at this point anyways, and you shouldn't be investing all your posts in a thread like this anyways, seeing as how this is not the first time this thread has been deleted and replaced.

HUH?
252 SpAtk Choice Specs Magmortar (+SpAtk) Fire Blast vs 0 HP/0 SpDef Thundurus-T: 126.42% - 148.83% (Guaranteed OHKO)
thunderus-T can't beat magmortar..

252 SpAtk Choice Specs Magmortar (+SpAtk) Focus Blast vs 252 HP/252 SpDef Lanturn: 43.39% - 51.1% (2-3 hits to KO)

still magmortar

[jesusfreak94]

Sorry, I always 2HKO with Ice Beam while you have a 37.5% chance OHKO with Grass Knot, and you need a 70% chance to succeed.

[Ilan]

So I can post here not fearing it becomes spam.. I think it is better that way.
mgmortar is still the pokemon to counter lanturn and thunderus-T aren's counters
I didn't calculate the chance but 3 focus blasts always KO lanturn which only 2HKO with hydro pump

sorry about the previews one I forgot nature: 252 SpAtk Choice Specs Magmortar (+SpAtk) Focus Blast vs 252 HP/252 SpDef Lanturn (+SpDef) : 39.43% - 46.48% (3 hits to KO)

The probability of Focus miss to hit 3 times in a row is 34% which mens lanturn counter 66% of the time and also that relying on hydro pump not missing.. in conclution not a counter.

[Ghosts of the Forums]

doesn't matter. back to magmortar. such a pain to counter.

challenge. uu or lower. no prevos of usual counters.

[Blue Harvest]

Thunderbolt + Hydro Pump should KO Mag while Magmortar needs all three Focus Blast to hit. My money is on Lanturn.

Edit:

Bronzong @ Leftovers

.

34% chance for all three focus blasts to hit so close but not a counter more than 70% of the time only 66% (and that's not counting hydro pump might miss)
