Vaporeon/Water Absorb/Bold/Leftovers Scald Wish Toxic Ice Beam Aegislash/Stance Change/Brave/Expert Belt (0 speed IV's) Kings Shield Shadow Sneak Sacred Sword Gyro Ball Delphox/Magician/Modest/Fire Gem Shadow Ball Fire Blast PsyShock Flame Charge The reason I am giving Delphox a Fire Gem is because I can use Flame Charge, boost it with the gem and then steal the other guys item. May end up with something useless like a choice band but whatever. Most band users really need that boost so its still worth it. | ||

Also, Magician effect doesn't happen if you consume a gem that turn. I think even Energy ball would be better. | ||

Why not run like Flamethrower (or WoW) and just actually do damage? Also, Magician effect doesn't happen if you consume a gem that turn. Really? I thought I'd be able to use the gem, then steal the item same turn. And Flame Charge was picked because I needed a physical move with 100% accuracy and Stab. The boost is nice bonus. Since magician needs a contact move Flame Charge seemed best. If you know of a better one I'm all ears  . I could Also fire blast with the gem then Flame Charge. That would leave a hell of a mark edits: Might just replace the pokemon now. I want this gimmick to work but seems like not worth it now. | ||

I dunno, if I was to run Delphox I'd just go full sweeper and get as much coverage as possible and run full offensive EVs. If you want to item-screw an enemy sweeper why not just run something with Knockoff? Off note there is like Gliscor, Machamp, Mandebuzz, Meinshoo, Escavelier, Sabeleye. | ||

Yeah, I wanted to try and get the Magician gimmick to work but just gonna abandon the plan. But its too much of a hassel so just use something else Dynamic Punching stuff with Machamp has always been a fun thing for me. Might also do the Magic Guard Sigilyph thing with a burn orb and psycho shift | ||

Tier placement is based upon percentage of use, not comparative power. Mandibuzz may be viable in OU, but if it doesn't make the usage cut, it could still very easily be UU or even lower.

I built mine defensive in hopes to counter high speed physical attackers by means of will-o-wisp. How disappointing...thanks for the responses.Edit: LOL going to run protect on it to skip the first turn, we'll see lol. Something else you could try is sending Banette out on a weakened Pokémon, Mega evolving, and using Shadow Sneak or something to try and revenge kill. You can then start abusing Prankster on the next turn. | ||

But this fucking klefki w/ leftovers - swagger/substitute/thunder wave/play rough with prankster completely neutralized my team on its own. I was supposed to take it out with a bonemarang from marowak but first turn swagger -> hit itself. Second turn thunderwave -> hits itself. Third turn paralyzed, gets hit with play rough. Fourth turn hits itself and gets hit with play rough -> faint. ... So did you ragequit? + Show Spoiler + Swagkey :D | ||
