He's still scouting. Scouting may not be worth a 50% reduction to damage output from a burn nor a 75% reduction in speed from paralysis, but it's often worth 10% of your life. Add in the fact that Mienshao usually has the Regenerator ability and it's a calculated risk of almost entirely benefits. (The only way the Fake Out Life Orb Regenerator loses is if he chooses to stay out and fight anyway -- and if his opponent does too and manages to pseudo-OHKO him thanks to Life Orb's recoil damage the previous turn.)

Breloom<3 I love Breloom simply because no one expects a Mega kick these days, and it is very capable of using it, and has Poison heal to boot. Add its variety of useful fighting moves, whether you are cautious enough to have a screen buster or no, and Thunderpunch for the annoying Drifblims and other ghosts.

Unpredictability. Your logic is exactly what makes it a secret weapon that forces a switch to a ghost for many, but then I just bust out Thunderpunch.

If you're using Poison Heal, then surely you must be using Toxic Orb. Given this, wouldn't Facade be categorically better than Mega Kick? 25% more accuracy, 20 effective more base power, 24 more PP at maximum, same type.

Lucarionite is banned pretty sure. I tried using it and PS wouldn't let me.

Suggestions!
-Jellicent You might want to include some sort of status on her. Jellicent isn't terribly powerful without investment. I'd recommend either dropping Shadow Ball or Ice Beam for Toxic or WoW. Ferro: No point to Protect is you aren't running Leech Seed. Sub it out for either Leech Seed, Gryo Ball, or Spikes. -Lucario Sub out Iron Tail for Ice Punch ASAP. Otherwise you are going to struggle against Gliscor and other Lando-T. -Toge Drop Dazzling Gleam for either Thunder Wave or Roost. The coverage is pretty redundant on your set. Espeon seems fine, I really can't see how you would improve the set. >Megaless His team is good enough that he won't need a Mega evo. >OU is such a slow meta No his opponent is just stupid. OU is very high-paced.

Jellicent should have some sort of SP. Attack investment maybe. And get Ice Punch on Luca

>Jelli I suppose dropping Shadow Ball wouldn't be bad. All three are there so I can check Psychics/Ghosts/Fires and without Ice Beam I can't push through Gliscor so I guess Shadow Ball would be the one to drop. >Ferro Protect is mainly there to stall out the turns for Sun because damn if Charizard-Y isn't everywhere. But I see your point on that. >Luke I'm hesitant on this. Iron Tail has proven quite helpful, and without it I can do fuck-all to Fairies. And with CB any Landos or Gliscors switching in take their fair share of damage. >Toge Fair. The Dazzling Gleam is mainly there for Lati@s and other Dragons, but she'd definitely like Roost. |

Protect is good for scouting

Or if you have dedent special investment in Lucario, Flash Cannon does wonders. Sometimes using MegaLuca against my friends, they use MegaGardevoir and Flash Cannon just does the BOOM HEADSHOT. It's so much fun.

Mixed Lucario is a bad idea.

Never said it was mixed, did I? heck, I only keep bone rush around so that it doesnt bug me that I have NO Fire coverage. Mine is much more special than anything.
