Pokemon Showdown! Username: Squaaaawk Prior Hall of Fame Standing: none :( Current Dark Horse Pokemon: Honchkrow, Dugtrio, Pidgeot, Staraptor Explanation of Dark Horse(s) So this team is birdspam hyperoffense, and by birdspam I mean five birds + Duggy. Honchkrow provides nice priority in sucker...

I'd like to see Dugtrio rise up from C- to C. With the release of Contrary Serperior, and the rise in Heatran usage with the new ORAS megas, there is more reason to run Dugtrio, and there is a smaller chance of it being dead weight. With Focus Sash, it acts as a shaky check to some set up...

Considering that Gothitelle is primarily on this team to rid of clerics and other 'mons that could be an annoyance, I would personally take Calm Mind over Heal Bell. First, putting their tanky/cleric mon in a position to only use one move already puts them at a disadvantage, but it's perfect...

There actually is a legitimate argument to this, as in the second episode of the anime as sees a poster in the pokémon center with the three legendary birds and Arcanine on it.

This team looks really good :D I've heard some things about Banded Swampert but never actually used him. The only thing that sticks out to me is the lack of priority on the team. Sure, you have Honchkrow, but Sucker Punch is unreliable at times, and so I think another form of priority would...

Personally, I use Gardevoir for a specs set. It has respectable bulk to take a hit or two, and then can 2HKO pretty much the entire metagame bar stuff like Skuntank (only because Focus Blast isn't reliable enough to call a 2HKO and Sucker Punch kills.) I run T-Bolt Psychic Shadow Ball and Focus...

In order for people to rate the team, you need to give at least 3 lines of description per pokémon, explaining a moveset, why you picked a certain pokémon, or how it fits in with the rest of the team. It's very difficult for people to rate teams with so little explanation. Two Things: Don't...

With no crits, I can see standard Cosmic Power Sigilyph becoming a huge threat after one or two boosts. As a result, I ask this: Do moves that always crit (i.e. Frost Breath) crit?

I'll honestly don't think Stealth Rock will be banned as the description speaks of "floating" stones, which will more or less still be effective once in the sky. Also, are pokemon who's predecessors are flying or have the ability levitate allowed in sky battles, like Scizor. If Scyther can fly...

I have to agree heavily on what Kingler said. Your team is very weak to strong fighting types like Conkeldurr, Breloom, and the rare Scarf Moxiecross. Especially Heracross as it can OHKO or 2HKO your entire team (Megahorn for Uxie, Night Slash or Shadow Claw for Gengar.) As a result, I propose...

Great team! I love the use of such an underrated pokemon. I'm not sure how helpful this could be, but what about the possible change of item for Feraligatr? I'm suggesting that water gem could be a better item. I did a damage calc, and Feraligatr's waterfall boosted by water gem OHKOs Tyranitar...

Great team! It obviously has to be good to get to number one, congrats! Somewhere in your post, you stated a general weakness to psychic and ground. I see how bent you are on using qwilfish as a spikesetter, but I think there is a better way to kill two birds with one stone. I don't know how...

Nice team, I would never have though of using only pure normal types, but if it works that's great. Right off the bat there's a glaring weakness to fighting. HJK Mienshao will wreck your team, at best barely missing the OHKO. My biggest suggestion is to switch the choice items on Porygon-Z and...

I'm honestly wondering how Trick Room would fare in this OM. With a wider movepool for Reuniclus along with insta-Zen Mode Darmanitan, I think it could become more viable. And then on top Ambipom could abuse his new moves outside of Trick Room to remove threats that would beat up on Reuniclus.
