Yanmega

Hey there members of the PWF! Chaos here once again to bring you this week's Pokemon of the Week: Yanmega! This bug has personally brought me just as much pain as it has enjoyment. Let's take a good long peek at what all of the "buzz" is about.

"Yanmega, the Ogre Darner Pokemon. Its jaw power is incredible. It is adept at biting apart foes while flying by at high speed."

Height: 6’03”/1.9m
Weight: 113.5lbs/51.5kg
EVs earned: 2 Attack
National Dex: 469
Gender: Male 50%-Female 50%
Egg Group: Bug

Resists
Grass:*0.25
Fighting:*0.25
Ground:*0
Bug:*0.5

Weaknesses
Fire:*2
Electric:*2
Ice:*2
Flying:*2
Rock:*4

Base Stats
HP: 86
Attack: 76
Defense: 86
Sp.A: 116
Sp.D: 56
Speed: 95

Abilities
Speed Boost: Speed increases by one stage each turn except the turn that the Pokémon is switched into battle.
Tinted Lens: The power of “not very effective” moves is doubled.
DW-Frisk: Reveals the foe’s held item.

I've been up against Yanmega more times than I'd like to count, and I have one myself. I absolutely love this buggy dude. In my experience battling against/with this particular pokemon, I've come to learn to fear, hate, and love Yanmega. Here is a set that I've grown quite accustomed to battling, and feel the desperate need to share. I hope you all enjoy.

Roland's F**k You, I has Yanmega Set
EV Spread: 252 Speed/252 Sp.A/4 HP
Nature: Timid
Ability: Speed Boost
Item: Bug Gem
Moveset
-Hypnosis
-Detect
-Bug Buzz
-Air Slash

The way Roland performs this little set is simple. Detect, and grab a speed boost. Put enemy to sleep, and grab yet another speed boost. Start to sweep, and don't forget more speed boosts!

Well, I hope you all enjoyed my article on Yanmega. If this didn't make you want to go out and grab a Yanmega immediately, you probably already have one.
