Counter that threat!!

[Mr. Kream]

Well... I guess Mega Sableye counters it still? Sort of? It can make it kill itself with recoil by spamming Recover (Banded Brave Bird/Flare Blitz do around ~50% to fully physically defensive Mega Sableye so it completely mitigates the damage)

That's the fun part, if say, I were the Sableye player and I didn't think it'd do anywhere near as much damage as it actually would and attacked it, I'd beyond any doubt be dead. His ability to defeat him being based on the player's prior knowledge or random luck almost makes it a stalemate since both have very iffy win conditions versus the other, but I guess that'd also keep it from being a solid counter.

Edit: but come to think of it, it's probably suicide for T-flame.

EditX23: I now see you mentioned that lol Re-read that wrong lol

Well... there's only one way to solve this predicament... throwing a pebble! (or T-rex thing)

I don't think I've played one of these before tbh, but after tanking the first blow and burning it, he handles it very well, not to mention, stealing HP and the boost to Hex. DD can hinder it, but the burn should do it's work. Mummy's nice, too.​

Your's depends on wil o wisp to handle normal types since your only attack doesn't work on them. Taking mummy actually helps slaking, as now it doesn't have to wait every other turn.

My favorite Sigilyph set, let it set up and it's a force to be reckoned with. It gets countered easily by certain Pokémon though coughHydreigonandHeatranandotherscough​

Not really a counter
If Arcanine tries to switch in, and Houndoom uses either Dark Pulse or Nasty Plot, it dies, while Arcanine does max 74% with Extreme Speed at +1 with a Choice Band
Arcanine is more of a Check than an actual counter

THIS is a counter

Terrakion @ Choice Band

It can switch in any of Houndoom's attacks, and OHKO next turn
It actually can take a Fire Blast, recieve a critical hit, get burn, and then recieve another Fire Blast to the face, and still survives and OHKOes Houndoom

You lose to Mega Lucario's Stone Edge 98% of the time, not really a counter, and quite far from being a check Maybe if it was Modest Scarf? You still risk the OHKO on a switch in though.

Damage calc said that Chandy can OHKO with Heat Wave and Shdow Ball. Plus Stone Edge is not a OHKO unless it crits. So assuming that I thought it was a good answer
