BUT SB is already such a good coverage move by itself. Depending on your team, you'll want focus blast, giga drai, tb, hp: ice, or whatever to cover team weaknesses. You can't discuss gg's moveset without thinking about who your team wants to be rid of.

bump to support the latios w/ psycho shock suggestion. it takes care of cm virizion and spec DM is much stronger and versatile than mence's DD+OR. Keep HP[ice] on landorus though, the scarfed ice coverage is very useful against dnite/mence/dragons in general. while hammer arm barely kos...

wow. grass's got a huge buff this gen. BTW. Was Breloom's dreamworld released? IIRC You'll have to move it to DW if you use techiloom.

4th, there's another place for G4 now. 5th, use Pain Spilt Gengar. or just lose the black sludge for life orb/left overs if Hypnosis works for you. 6th, Scizor wants 240hp, 252 atk and rest in def or spdef. and CHOICE BAND. 7th, and needs more words. I'm not sure what you're going for...

And nidoking. Do you really need 6 monkeys? maybe use a wildcard, a monkey master!? even monotype teams use a wildcard. I Love the idea though. keep it up. and you need priority moves... as Azurmarill count as a monkey? Infernape over Simisear for strong physical fighting moves like Mach...

that was a late night TYPO. sorry. well. Rotom-H is working out well. I am running OVERHEAT, HP-ICE, VOLT SWITCH, TRICK. with a CHOICE SPEC. and because of such a change, Latios now has a CHOICE SCARF- because opposing Latios are always faster. (mb it's the hp-fire) Problem now, I can't seem...

Hmm. Rotom-H will give me another Electric Resist, and no more HP Fire. and I can lose Hydro Pump for a stronger TB... Let me test out what that new Fire-Rock-Bug resist/ Water weak will do for the team. It looks like it also gives me a much needed counter to Thundurus. p.s. @Kingdra...

IMAGES COMING SOON I have this philosophy of the Universal Team that has an answer to all Pokemon teams. The last few RMTs I posted here were all more or less the same team, slowly evolving as the metagame and my experience grew. This is a new RMT because of how much the team as changed since...

@aussieman000 Gyarados' typing already resist all the physical priority. The extra defense doesn't seem as useful as attack atm. However bulky I make my team, remember that this is an offensive team that am tweaking to fit the metagame better. IIRC There's no more working frail total offense...

Uxie @ Leftovers Trait: Levitate EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SDef Relaxed Nature (+Def, -Spd) - Yawn - Stealth Rock - U-turn - Magic Coat Gyarados (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Intimidate EVs: 248 HP / 252 Def / 8 SDef Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Rest - Sleep Talk - Waterfall - Dragon Tail Nidoking...

bc I am no longer updated on pokemon competitiveness... what's the general consensus on double dance hazorus? *DD,SD,EQ,Outrage- from the current analysis, when you need a wallbreaker, SD; and when you need sweeper, DD. this follows the same 'reasoning' as a double dance Terrakion.

well, I could... but yawn and U-turn has been such a staple to the way this team plays. I would like suicune to be bulkier, but that also means slower and weaker... which leads to faster brelooms spore + death. or mb the rare celebi. are there any suicune sets to recommend? or mb...

there are so many playable Pokemon and so many different builds for each one; sadly, the small amount of smogon players only play an even smaller variety of Pokemon. Can you offer the Ttar sets and the CM sets? (mb a scenario if you have time...) I'll need to manually run damage calc, think of...

My RD weakness was solved by the banhammer, lolol. That and I completely shifted it from U-Turn to something else... the spirit of the team is still there, it's just less mindless U-Turn spam. Saza will be missed, it was awesome; Gengar simply provided the superspeed my team needed against...

hmm, I'm just brainstorming, but help me think. What about banning pokemon/move combinations on a team?; i.e.: no drizzle and manaphy on the same team, or other arguably crazy combos. so many things can be abused in weather now and there are way too many pokemon, (but we can never have too...
