Isn't Quash a TM? Although this thing prolly doesn't get any other egg moves anyway.

And yeah, this is about as good as it gets.

I lifted this set from smogon. I don't know if this is pangoro's most viable set so I'm open to inputs.

Oh, is it? Then I can switch it to Me First. Pnacham only gets 5 egg moves

Oh ok, well either way, not gonna probably be used. I won't say anything if you don't add me first. XD

There's a scrappy set with storm throw, but it's whatever. Not a huge deal, plus, dark type hits ghosts. This one looks good to me.

Looks good.

I have a question as to why Iron Fist would be chosen over one of the other abilities. Is it a better idea to run pangoro as a punching set? I would have thought that scrappy or even mold breaker would be more ideal for pangoro as an ability. Again I'm just asking because I'm genuinely curious, feel free to school me

From what I've read, the main aim of this set is to be the first to move so he can use parting shot for scouting or do some damage if possible. Which is why Iron Fist is the preferred ability: to give him some extra power for a couple of his moves (Hammer Arm, Sky Uppercut, Poison Jab?).

All of Pangoro's abilities are pretty decent though. Scrappy could be used with storm throw. Mold breaker to make sure parting shot hits through magic bounce. But I don't think breeding for 2 sets is ideal given how mediocre pangoro is competitively. Maybe we could put up a poll? I could do 2 sets if a majority of us want to. Or we can vote for the preferred ability and nature.

I'd vote for the scrappy set solely because I don't have it lol. But as far as viability goes, I think iron fist usually wins just based on the fact that you want to use parting shot with a scarf.

ok, it's been 48 hours and there doesn't seem to be any strong objections to my proposed set. I'll start breeding this tonight

Just finished breeding the proposed set

Do you have the pokemon bred and finished up? To speed up the distribution process, we will be collecting the completed pokemon as they get finished, so let's coordinate the transfer of this pokemon over to me at your nearest convenience. Thank you!
