Greninja: Do Not Ban

Confirming as Bye Bye Greninja

You'd be surprised, they work great together (I'm only kidding and was joking in the 1st case). Have you considered adding a ghost and making this team less offensive, it might make a decent stall team now that i take a second look at it.

You can use Superpower on Dragonite over Dragon Claw, you would also have to switch the ability to Inner Focus but w/o a spinner or Roost you cant stop your opponent from setting up rocks anyway. Waterfall is also a nice option as already stated

Is there an item clause, because Gliscor would love leftovers recovery. Also I don't see the use for HP Electric on Volcarona, with a Modest nature, Life Orb , and Fire Blast it can punch through any Gyarados at +1 if it falls anywhere near 50% (2 stealth rocks switches). With that in mind...

I don't see why this team doesn't have more rates, it's better than a majority of the teams posted. Just one quick thing. Try leftovers on Heatran, Air Balloon is nice and all but passive healing is better with all that bulk you carry. How often do you use Thunder on Latios? Have there been...

Forgive me if I am wrong. I don't use Weavile, but it doesn't live very long. Don't get me wrong you play to it;s strengths on this team, but having horrible defenses + being weak to all forms of entry hazards isn't the best formula for sticking around. I just think you put too much pressure...

Makes sense, only thing here is that the most common (choiced) dark attack in ou would be from Tyranitar, and if it's Scarfed it'll come in and kill Luke later anyway, and bug moves aren't seen in OU outside of U-Turn. What I've been trying to get at is that you say Cune is the weak link on the...

If it's not ScarfGon Ape is faster and kills it. Anyway where does Lucario usually set up on this team, dark attacks aimed at Celebi?

I get where you're coming from but I've seen a couple of teams that have used "hax" or chance and have gotten really high on the ladder. Matty made one 4th gen that might still be viable now: http://www.smogon.com/forums/showthread.php?t=71805 It primarily abused Thunder Wave, which wasn't used...

Hold on there buddy, all forms of hazards yet no spin blocker. I second using Scizor as a sweeper, there has been no mention of Metagross yet who could also work (you'd be a bit suspectable to Flygon) Metagross @ Life Orb Jolly 60 HP / 252 Atk / 196 Spe -Agility -Meteor Mash -Earthquake -Zen...

Weavile shouldn't be killing Flygons locked on Outrage Luke should set up on it (assuming Scarf). Replacing it with Scarf Rotom-A could work. It attracts pursuit (good for Luke) users, gives another Gyara and Scizor seeing as these two have an easier time sweeping once Suicune is at half health...

LMAO thank you this made my day, and i think it's my new sig. This thread makes an interesting point, can anyone just make a team that abuses chance and have a higher win rate? What would that teams members be? -Jirachi -Togekiss -Machamp

It's always like that when a couple of strong things are banned. When Salamence / Latias were banned stall dominated the ladder for a while until people realized what worked and what failed in the new metagame. Give people a couple of weeks to play around and hopefully we get a metagame similar...

What is this...I don't even...I guess this is what you get when you remove Excadrill. What do you do vs stall? Nothing on your team has the power to break it. Also I think that a speedy Volcarona can sweep your team (might live hydro pump + bullet punch). I agree with sirndpt, add trick to...
