Who would win on a 1 vs 1 Darkrai or machamp

we were have a dicussion/argument on the chatbox and i want to find out your opinions on whos better so vote away.

1 vote for machamp.we know who that is right!!

i should have had a battle with lonequincy to decide

indecidable

1) it has a suppiror speed
2) Darkrais psychic+ sp attack + (iteam?)+ machamps weakness to psychic = yer machamp is pretty much going to loose...

but then

if machamp has a focus sash then

1) NO guard+ Supirrior attack+ STAB+ Darkrais weakness to fighting + Dynamic punch

so it all depend on if mchamp has a focus sash or not.... if it does then yea machamp FTW and if it doesn't then LOL DARKIRA WILL KICK ITS A$$

unless darkrai also has a focus sash then you go down to would darkrai hit its self in confusion or not..... and thats a differnt matter...

No, even with a sash Lead Machamp carries Bullet Punch

Lead Machamp will win.
Machamp will actually lose if it has focus sash because Darkrai will dark void and 2HKO Machamp with focus blast when it's asleep.
EDIT: Darkrai has a slight chance of winning; dark pulse has a 20% chance to flinch, if it flinches, then Darkrai can KO on the next turn.

ok so if machamp has no guard

hypnosis is 100% + bad dream+ darkrai gets a free turn= machamp is bye bye

i think darkrai would win even if machoke has lum berry...if darkrai had max defence and machamp has max attack bullet punch still wouldnt do anything....and if machamp used dynamic punch on a max hp darkrai it still would leave darkrai enough hp to kill machamp

so my vote is to darkrai...

Dynamic Punch would bring Darkrai with a sash to 1HP, then bullet punch to kill. Even if it does take a dynamic punch, and then a bullet punch, Darkrai will be confused. I guess there will be 50% chance to hit Machamp to K.O, but who would put HP and DEF evs on Darkrai anyways.

ok so basically this arguemt comes down to what iteam darkria and machamp are holding...
or if darkrai is affeced by confusion or not...

that would support darkrai cause UBERs are stronger than all the other tires...


(little spam for everyone 500th post )

darkrai because it knows dark void or hypnosis then its ability then it uses dream eater 2 round victory

ARE U ALL OK? (you need 2 pay attention 2 pkmn types) Darkrai is a GHOST/DARK like spiritomb ghost types are unaffected by normal and FIGHTING type moves while its weak 2 psycic but the dark stops the psycic while darks weakness is fighting (which has no effect still) so unless machamp has foresight it will get slaughtered because it cant do super effective moves

Darkrai is dark only not dark ghost lol

So Machamp still wins

Looks like someone here should take his own advise about checking types. Only Ghost/Darks in the game are Sableye and Spiritomb
