    First RMT!

    This RMT doesn't give us much to go on... You didn't really provide us with any clear win condition or overall goal, and your Pokemon descriptions are self explanatory and adequate at best. I'll do my best to give you a good rate, but in general, three lines of information on each Pokemon is...

    New Team! Balanced 6 v 6

    I understand the philosophy behind the whole "I use what I like!" thing, but the truth of the matter is that if you want to be in competitive, you can't use things that are just outclassed outright. It may take you a while to find a team that you like that doesn't have outclassed Pokemon in it...

    Other The state of entry hazards for gen 6

    Defog may be overrated, but you certainly cannot deny that the meta game is a new place now thanks to its buff. People are always going to run Defog because it's a way for hazard-less (and hazards, believe it or not) teams to get rid of hazards on their side. And lets not ignore its other...

    Rocking the Houndoom

    I like this team because it addresses the drought/drizzle nerf pretty effectively by making it only half of the team's gimmick. The only odd thing about it though is obviously the lack of Drought but... That can certainly be looked around. If you feel like you can make Sunny Day work, then make...

    VoltTurn / Baton Pass OU

    Baton Passing Belly Drum is an extremely risky thing. Probably not a gimmick I'd recommend to someone so new to competitive battling, as knowledge of the metagame is what really makes a team like this succeed, but if you're having fun with it overall than I have no transgressions. And I also...

    Back to OU! 6th Gen Competitive Team (advice appreciated!)

    How's everybody doing this year? It's GenXXZ, and I'm here with my first 6th Gen Singles RMT. Some of you may remember me lurking around the UU forums last gen, where I mainly experimented with Trick Room and the effects of it on that metagame. However, those days certainly have passed, and now...

    Move Sticky Web

    In my opinion, Galvantula is the best user. Such an offensive hazard requires an offensive hazard setter, and Galvantula fits the bill. Although not exactly a powerhouse, it does have access to an extra accurate Thunder, and a dual STAB that actually gets some pretty good coverage. Volt Switch...

    Pokémon Empoleon

    Honestly, even this gen poor Empoleon does not have much going for it. It would certainly give Skarmory a run for its money if it had a reliable recovery move, but unfortunately it still hasn't gotten one. Ah well, it will still do some pretty awesome stuff in UU with its now buffed Defog.

    Sweep ALL the things!

    Hey, cool team! You almost got a bulky offense thing going on, and I think that can be a pretty effective strategy. You also seem to have a pretty defined win condition in the form of Mawile, which is great! All teams need a strong focus, and I don't see any lack of that here. If this is your...

    Move New Egg Moves

    For everyone's convenience, Serebii has a list of all the new egg moves here in case you're not up to speed on what's new. It includes all new egg moves, not just Pokebank ones, so be careful.

    First competitive team

    Hey, this is a pretty good balanced team, and you did a pretty good job for what I'm assuming is your first team. Here's some things that I would personally recommend. Right off the bat though, it's important that each Pokemon have at least 3 lines of information to help raters give the best...

    Other Most overhyped or underated aspect this gen so far?

    I think the fairy hype is at least understandable, as it only has two weaknesses (One of which, steel, is resisted by tons of secondary typings like Fairy/Water) and I think we can all agree that Outrage was in need of a counter. Having your only steel type fainted mid-game and then getting...

    Pokémon Manectric

    I find, since Manectric has pretty much no way of boosting it's Sp. Atk outside of Lightningrod, that he's a pretty exceptional Mega to have on a team with baton pass support thanks to his already good base stats. My Manectric pretty much always gets BP support in the form of my Venomoth and it...

    Pokémon Furfrou

    Well, most likely. Serebii seems to say no, but I take that with a grain of salt due to their abilitydex not being divided by generation. There's also no sign of any new Gen 6 abilities in the list of things Mold Breaker effects, so it can be assumed it has not been updated. Due to abilities...
