Taking a quick trip to the damage calculator, I suppose a spread of 252 HP / 28+ Def / 228 SpD could be helpful. It lets you avoid the 2HKO from Specs Keldeo's Hydro Pump in rain, and avoid the 2HKO...

HP Fire Deo-D is very unappreciated. Forry is my Spinner Of Choice, so whenever I come across a Deo-D lead, I am always afraid to try spinning on it in case it's that set.

However, I feel that...

I'm surprised that Taunt isn't listed here among the notable moves, as Hydreigon is a perfect user of it. Personally I'm a bit of a semi-stall and balance player, and I like to try odd things. I've...

Well, that's pretty much exactly what I was arguing against. With Sand Stream, Tyranitar is not outclassed as a Pursuit trapper by any pokemon, due to its STAB and enormous SpDef and Atk. It's its...

Timid Specs Keldeo in rain is both much faster and much stronger than Modest Specs Politoed in rain, with better STAB and effectively mixed offenses. Rotom-W, Kingdra and Modest Starmie (lol) can lay...

It's been mentioned in this thread but I don't think it was addressed (not sure if it was noticed). Sky Drop is hilariously broken. In short, the target is prevented from moving on both of the turns...

Although Episode36's criticism wasn't voiced in the best way, I'd have to agree with Stallion and others in that Heatran is a valid concern. Not only uncommon sets either - your team seems to lack...

Would Eviolite be legal under these circumstances?

Trapinch looks like a horror, as do Smeargle, Clamperl and Hustle Darumaka.

Hi ShakeItUp. We battled quite a few times on the ladder, back when you were using that Aqua Tail CBtar. At first this team just puzzled me, and seemed just a Ledyba short of Challenge Cup. But after...

I think the last CCAT was great and there are some fantastic pokemon being nominated for this one too. I'd like to support Nidoqueen, but I'd propose a more modern set.

It boosts only the next Electric-type move used, doubling its power. And it gives you that Special Defense boost.
