Done.

You took Goomy. I thought Beef wanted it.

If there's a second set, my vote is for one with Gooey. The defensive Gooey Goodra that I have isn't overpowered but is nevertheless viable despite the lack of reliable recovery. Although, the Goodra set I use the most is Hydration with Toxic, Rest, Infestation, Rain Dance. It can surprise people. But then again, it does not get common usage.

I'm also surprised you took another Dragon. I'd imagine after the hassle you went with Gible, you would choose one that doesn't take so many steps to hatch and from among what's left, that would be Taillow or Ducklett.

Also, nice Goomy picture.

Beef said that, but then vanished again, so we didn't want to hold up Dragon/Flying any more than we already have by limiting sets to 2 in the early part of it.

What can I say, I'm a glutton for punishment lol.

No, I really like Dragons, and I figured that step wise, if we leave a Dragon for the last one, it will be done way later than the other two, so I decided to go for it. We talked about it on the chat last night, and it's been 9 days now since beef said he was taking it. If he comes back in the next couple days, I'll be glad to give it to him, but we need to keep the line moving.

If anyone else wanted Goomy but was holding off because of beef, let me know and I'll gladly give it up and let you take it. Truth be told, I just barreled ahead and didn't even know about beef until after I posted the set, so sorry if I jumped the line for anyone. I'm just trying to get it done as quickly as possible, that's all.

I'm with you on this one.

Why did you list Goodra in the link? Why on earth would you want to evolve this thing?

Also has anyone tried Mild with this? I've tried this in Showdown with a bit of speed investment and has done pretty well.

I haven't tried out Mild, but we were discussing potential mixed yesterday. Just curious, what speed investment do you put on it? And in order to outrun what? We were looking at the speed tiers last night, but I don't think found anything specifically, but we could have easily missed something.

Lol blue, that's pretty good.

And I looked at speed tiers for about 5 minutes then quit. I am curious though blue.

Edit to previous statement: We had Bunsel look at speed tiers and pretended to be thorough about it

was gonna 'inb4 mixed goodra' but Bunsel mentioned it in the first post lol


I told you guys someone was gonna bring it up I was gonna take it and moved along after remembering both of the 6IV's iv'e had to do for the guild have been terribad ;w;

I think mixed could be a good idea, i often saw earthquake + mild and gooey when it was still OU but i'm not sure if it's viable or not anymore, so i'll leave you guys to it D:

I used to run 80 attack 252 SpA and 176 Speed to outspeed Neutral nature Bisharp and Breloom with Sap Sipper. Not the most efficient spread between offenses but got the job done and the attack made the Heatrans that tried to switch in on it or those who lead with their Heatran get disposed of quickly with Earthquake.

It gets Superpower now too in case you fear T-tar more than Heatran and it now has a more reliable option against Chansey if you catch it at a good time.

Though if we do Mild I highly recommend Sap Sipper. Being able to get a safe switch on most Grass types and absorbing Powder Moves and Leech seeds is pretty useful.

252 SpA Latios Draco Meteor vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Goodra: 300-354 (93.4 - 110.2%) -- 56.3% chance to OHKO

It even still has decent enough special bulk that it has a pretty decent chance to live one of these w/o investment. It can still find a time to switch in on special moves but you dont want to send this in on physical ones as Mild makes it more vulnerable. A lot of people never expected a faster Goodra though which is why I had alot of success with Mild around the time I used it.

I just came here to say this needs a Gooey set.

Well, Gooey isn't really very good. Counting on taking defensive hits just to activate it isn't great, then you have to figure that you have to invest in offense just to make it work so you probably can't take that many anyway. Plus no recovery.

If anything, we should breed Blue's mixed set and change my original to Gooey if everyone really wants it.

Well it's a rip roaring good time in here. Yee Haw.

Take a look at these sets, if they look good to everyone I'll start. I was thinking and maybe the way to go is bash's defensive set and/ or blues mixed. Modest is probably most common though, so I'm not sure how to fit them all in there.

Looks good to me

That's the only opinion needed. Starting now.

Looks good to me

This is done, complete with 31/x/31/31/31/31 Modest Gooey and 31/31/31/31/31/31 Mild Sap Sipper.
