Look at me, I'm Umbreon, come on in, Infernape, SD Lucario, Tauntrados, come in and kick my ass!!| 41 | Umbreon | 42191 | 4.22 |
Hello, I'm TrickScarf Uxie. Do you have ScarfTar on your team?? If you do, please bring him out so I can get waste myself for you.| 14 | Uxie | 20314 | 2.03 |
While umbreon does get slaughtered, Uxie does not. Scarftar can't OHKO (50.8% - 59.9%) uxie with pursuit as it switches. Not to mention being stuck on pursuit so early on really sucks for ttar. This also means if ttar is shown/beaten early, sweepers like gengar can be played safely.Hello, I'm TrickScarf Uxie. Do you have ScarfTar on your team??

Thats why some people are playing yawn+u-turn uxie. Also leads like azelf often don't taunt uxie because they fear to get tricked. That makes it a pretty reliable lead.Hello, I'm TrickScarf Uxie. Do you have ScarfTar on your team?? If you do, please bring him out so I can get waste myself for you.
I was thinking the same thing. When I first looked at the stats I figured Azelf lead usage went up last month because of the Colbur set, but apparently < 8% of Azelf used an item that wasn't Focus Sash, Life Orb, or Choice Scarf.I also thought there would be more colbur berry Azelf leads especially with Machamp rising, I guess it hasn't cought on yet.
Heracross is raped by Scyther, though, and also by Moltres. I'm not convinced that it is unmanageable in UU.Oh, and obligatory Heracross for UU comment. Unbalanced metagames seem to engender a strange exhilaration, methinks?
Scarfed Heracross will make them think twice though, because Heracross easily OHKOs both of them easily with Stone Edge. Weezing is much more reliable at taking down Heracross, it can easily take any move it has, and can cripple it with WOW, however even then, Guts will make it even more difficult to take down.Heracross is raped by Scyther, though, and also by Moltres.

Your dead wrong there, according the June 2010 Statistics, 99.7% of Heracross on the Suspect Ladder had the ability Guts, and 94.2% on the Standard ladder had Guts. I agree, However, that most of the Heracross on the ladders are Scarfed.No one doesn't use guts on Heracross. All you need is stealth rock support and he would easily assrape UU.

This is dumb. It's pretty much impossible to keep SR on the field in UU. And a Scarfed Heracross is easily revenged; it doesn't have the raw power (or consistency, due to using low-accuracy moves) of P-Z to be able to abuse a Scarf properly in UU.No one doesn't use guts on Heracross.

Yeah, I hope so, scizor has been #1 for a long time, and I think its about time for the "king" to get unseated. IMO, Heatran(besides Salamence) is the pokemon closest to being Uber. It is a great all round pokemon, the ulimate antimetagame pokemon.Looks like scizor might actually get overtaken!
