The smogon counters are either not available in this game or bad pokes overall..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingbaaz Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 I want this anwser because malamar with superpower move is unstoppable. If you get answer or any way for that please share here too. https://images-ext-2.discordapp.net/external/aUrD1DL7GCfPCHqO8sPz6-uRvmpnU00jBcsqIqbjph0/%3Fwidth%3D434%26height%3D434/https/media.discordapp.net/attachments/539614946020032513/671646054487425034/img_chara_shanks_hand01_l.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Envymeister Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Clefable is a good checker for him. Since resists both Superpower and Knock off. Heracross is a counter: , just pray to hit megahorn xD pretty sure there are a few more, but this 2 best ones i can think of :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess clef is the best bet here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imtrippin Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Careful malamar is the best build and it's still bad. It's just not a good pokemon for competetive. If it's impish or anything else without spdef, then you can deal with it easily with any strong spatker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
