how would you run him? is refrigerate even worth it? Or just go with the hail storm chipped damage route?
>>59031343Just looked up Aurorus and it has a bad special attack stat along with a very dogshit speed tier. I'd probably still make use of it in VGC but it wouldn't be my first choice for sure but I've used worse. My goal would be to make as good of a use for STAB Refigerate Hyper Voices as I could most likely under trick room.
>>59031524Also forgot to mention that Ice/Rock is a great offensive and equally terrible defensive typing. That's interesting.
suicide lead
It's always fun when someone is caught by surprise.the number of people being retards during the bird giveaways was astounding like Dragonite using Thunderbolt against my Aurorus when it damn well could've used a super effective move instead
>>59031588Aurorus and Tyrantrum was such a great fossil duo
ZA gave it ice shard, it's something.
LeftoversSnow WarningAurora VeilHyper VoiceMirror CoatEarth PowerIt's still ass because it's most of the time gonna aurora veil after getting hit, but it's something.There's really no helping a slow ice/rock type with low defense when steel and fighting are physical oriented types.Don't use Aurorus.
>>59031610*Ice HammerAlso got Chilling Water which is something I wanted Aurorus to have.Now give it Alluring Voice.
>>59031631>Don't use Aurorus.Doing so creates mustard gas.

>>59031567the thinking man's 'play whatever you want'i've ran a beedrill suicide lead in mid-high mmr on showdown and it was fun as shithitmonlee lead is my go-to thoughunburden white gem fake out sweeper
>>59031717Bonus points if whoever you're playing against is a retard who doesn't know what they're doing.
>>59031631Hey, at least Snow Warning boosts its def, right?
>>59031894It does but Aurorus isn't in SV and Legends ZA doesn't have abilities.Typing aside it's a good thing anyway since Aurorus can take physical hits in general better now since 72 Defense becomes 108 in Snow.Boosted Defense in Snow is better than Solid Rock because the latter only reduces super effective damage while Snow boosts an Ice type Pokemon's Defense stat thus providing better resilience against all physical attacks, which is something that Aurorus really needed since 72 Defense is just bullshit low for a sauropod.The Solid Rock suggestions are only because people are far too focused on the Pokemon's typing.
>>59031936Champions soon
>>59031963That's IF Champions has a tier system like Pokemon Showdown does so you won't get diddled by Kyogre and Miraidon.
Does it have a good rock special attack yet?
>>59032942It doesn't have Power Gem?
>>59032942Meteor Beam, but with a significant catch.It's actually good in Legends ZA but unfortunately you need the DLC for it, ultimately meaning that you'd need to pay $30 for Aurorus to have a special Rock type move.>>59032956Nope.This is even more idiotic now since considering that both Ancient Power AND Meteor Beam are DLC-only this means you'd literally have to spend $30 if you want Aurorus to have a Rock type move that uses its Special Attack.TL;DR: Aurorus only has physical Rock type moves outside of the DLC and that is just fucked.
>>59031343>Pidgey used Steel Wing!
>>59033010Doesn't have Steel Wing in Legends ZA.
