Alternate CB Aggron EVs

[Alan]

Hi.

Okay so I was playing with Aggron on a UU team I made with august back in the day (like a few weeks ago) and I was like, "yo jolly is a dumb nature on a cb set, i want it to hit harder" so i made a different EV spread. i just decided i only wanted to outpace Adamant Hitmontop since all the sets on site run a neutral speed nature and 0 Spe EVs and its basically the biggest thing i gotta worry about. (i guess rhyperior but rhyperior is a lamer) so i came up with this:

92 HP / 252 Atk / 166 Spe with an Adamant Nature. It reaches 177 spe (0 investement hitmontop reaches 176) 92hp also gives it a bit more survivability for neutral hits, its not a SR number or anything like that.

if this does get added in, it should probably be mentioned that this spread should be used in a more hit-and-run type of fashion than the 252/252 spread.

thanks for reading or not reading if you didnt.

edit; also stats back me up as far as hitmontop goes so:

| Hitmontop | Speed EV | None | 87.0 |
| Hitmontop | Speed EV | Max | 7.2 |
| Hitmontop | Speed EV | Very Low (<50) | 5.8 |
| Hitmontop | Nature | Adamant | 63.4 |
| Hitmontop | Nature | Impish | 29.1 |
| Hitmontop | Nature | Other (3) | < 4.8 |

Outrunning most defensive Milotic and 2HKOing with Head Smash is one of the main perks of CB Aggron. Since you haven't actually provided any reasoning as to why the extra Attack / HP would benefit Aggron, I entirely disagree with your proposition as it stands.

whistle edit: yes what eo said this is random as fuck i like my aggron fast to KILL THINGS. also i moved this to the subjective changes thread.

edit 2 on not my post: never mind i can't move to that cause i don't have mods there LoL the donphan thread should prolly go in there too if someone else reads this

Pretty hard no to this, outrunning Milotic, Blastoise, defensive Venusaur, etc is way, way too important. I'd rather use Rhyperior over Aggron if I was looking for sheer power, Aggron's primary advantage comes from outrunning way more defensive Pokemon (yes I know there are others).
