What i dislike about the molk team is the move choices aren't finished for every mons. I think going for pursuit is a good idea, as you will be able to trap Lati@s and giving free the way for keldeo. The HP fly of keldeo is great to lure venusaur that take around 50% and it easly 2HKO if the SR are in. The pokemon that may trouble your team the most, is probably mamoswine as only keldeo can come in, and take sever damage if it takes an earthqake. Finally, i do not see what the 252 Spd EVs in deoxys-S allows you to Outspeed, but its a detail. Anyway this team is probably the most effective that week. You have my props:

I'm going for Molk.
Oh, yeah i see what you mean with the move choices, although that really isn't that i'm not decided on what moves to use, it's more because while i have a set out of those move options that i prefer, i'm definitely aware that there are other options on those Pokemon that people might prefer, so i added them in as slashes like in an analysis as a kind of "i use this set, but alternatively you can use the moves slashed alongside over the first set to achieve some cool things". Like as you mentioned, Pursuit on Aegislash can honestly be really useful to take out lati@s for keldeo, letting it punch holes in the team more effectively once those are even weakened by Pursuit.
Mamoswine is definitely an issue for the team lol, i've definitely played it before and it's given me some major trouble tbh. It hits pretty much every member of my team hard and the only thing i can really do is try and predict around it (get keldeo in on an ice move or smth) or sacrifice a pokemon and revenge kill it w/ either Keldeo or Deoxys-S. definitely a threat to watch out for.
On the Deoxys-S Ev spread, i think i actually used an old import by mistake lol :x, all you really need is enough speed to get scarfchomp, although i *guess* running max speed can help you out in deo-s vs deo-s matchups.
This may sound ridiculous but instead of deoxys, I have used a trick room slowbro to let mawile sweep. Its been strangely effective up till now also a lot of fun.

Either way, if Gary and S18 abandoned it, I'm sure fin would do an awesome job at fixing it up. If anyone, I'd rather have him do it.
Thanks. But, I think it'd be better if they keep doing it.

I wasn't saying that you would do a better job than them, I said that if they weren't doing it anymore, that you would be a good candidate.
And what will happen when the people running this come back?
I think they realized there was little point to running a thread where all the decorated users gained all the votes. There's little point to promoting a teambuilding competition for teambuilding practice if they're just going to give the round away to some already good player.
Still, it was nice to see all those teams and participate.

the decorated users clearly made the best teams.
The teams here were quality.
I don't see you making any teams here worth using.
please revive this thread
#SHOTSFIRED
I like this idea a lot, let me talk to some people and I can see about restarting this project.
Obviously decorated users made better teams, I just said they were better players!
And being a frequent poster on this thread I had quite a few people praise the teams I made. I don't even remember you posting at all. I'm not taking crap from a lurker.
In any case the pm'ing idea is a good one. Maybe users can submit a team and then a more decorated player can help them improve it, sort of like a sponsoring type thing. And then the sponsored teams would be discussed in the thread and a tourney could be added at the end to see which team was best.
