Porygon Z + Hyper Beam...what can survive it?

[Crossfiyah]

Assuming its new ability gives it a double STAB, Hyper Beam would come out to 337.5 base power. If thats true, and it is able to use Scheme before hand, what exactly is capable of surviving a Hyper Beam from it?

I've found Registeel can, and Jirachi can if it has Special Defense and HP EVs. Toridepusu of course, with it's 4x weakness, can laugh off its attacks.

Anything else?

 

[Alastor DMc]

I think Trapinch can survive it.;328;

Any other poke with a QUADRUPLE RESITANCE to normal attacks?

Yonowaaru. Any other Ghost pokemon. A steel type. Rock type. Or PorygonZ could just be taken out beforehand by something faster.

 

[Chimecho3000]

Shuckle, Regice, Chansey, and Blissey would survive as well.

 

[Alzi]

A blissey could , the foe would be smart and try and take it down before hand but if that fails then they will attack when it's resting after the hyper beam.

Yes. Dainoosu.

 

[legendary pkm master]

thanks for the strategy ima remeber this for WIFI

 

[Cartman]

it's pretty much the special alternative of slaking's giga attack; kinda weaker

 

[Raikou77]

^PorygonZ gets an extra STAB from Adaptive, Would that make it as strong as Slakings Giga Attack?

 

[TogeticTheRuler]

But its sorta screwed the next turn =/ its basically an explosian except you hypothetically last for 1 more turn, and its on a certain target.

 

[Auraninja]

I'd imagine PorygonZ's Hyper Beam to be extremely powerful, but the next Pokemon to battle can swat at PorygonZ's mediocre defenses.

Edit: What about Adaptive, that will further increase Hyper Beam's power? Hyper Beam is a Normal type, no?

 

[Edux]

It could work as a Explosion, you know, high risk, high reward

And with enough luck you could survive the charge turn, and well after a Scheme PorygonZ's Hyperbeam (with Adaptive) does around 90%-100% to the standard Bold Blissey (Max HP, Zero Sp.Def), and Blissey is monstruous when we talk about Special Walls so you can imagine how destructive is its HB

But since Fighting attacks is a must in every team, it can be countered easily , and still you don't need SE attacks to KO it :S

 

[Freakshow]

If I'm not mistaken Adaptive + Scheme + Hyper Beam + Life Orb OHKOs Blissey, and when it OHKOs Blissey there really isn't anything else that can survive it

 

[rybo5000]

lol - you spend your spare time working these kind of things out?
Anyway legendaries and rock/steel pokemon probably can

 

[RaiBlade]

Gastly Can Survive It.

 

[_Calm|Mind_]
