I don't see any particular need for Kyogre to run an odd number for HP, to be honest, and I'm not liking the 8 Spe purely because it's speed creep. Is there any particular that 248 HP does, otherwise...

I'd give Yache and Lum Berry mentions too. I've seen them both get used and both are useful on such a set. It's especially nice when an offensive team only has Mamoswine as its RP Landorus-T check...

I did remember Theorymon wanting to have a look at a Dual Screens set. Since Espeon is dying quickly most of the time, he may as well try to do something productive, and Espeon is relatively fast....

I doubt this, since your main attacks are still Drain Punch and Mach Punch, both of which take Life Orb recoil. You're only using Thunderpunch and Ice Punch for coverage, and they naturally would be...

Maybe just slash Guts with Sheer Force, or give it an AC mention? I mean, you can run this set perfectly fine without Sheer Force, IMO.

Proposed Ubers Revamp List (and discussion)

So there are lots of Ubers analyses that need revamping or just updating because some of them are retardedly old. I've skimmed through every analysis we have in Ubers and wrote down what I think...

Wait, why would Ferrothorn and Forretress set up SR if they're predicting a Flamethrower?

Except Morning Sun sucks because rain is easily the most common weather condition in Ubers. See, Xatu can use Roost to heal 50% while stuff like Kyogre switch in (which is quite normal). Espeon is...

Actually, I've run Calm Mind Xatu (for the funsies) with CM / Heat Wave / Grass Knot / Roost and it is surprisingly effective. Unlike Espeon, Xatu can break actually hurt stall teams somewhat because...

What I meant was having a specific set dedicated to Baton Pass is just bad. However, I am pretty happy for Baton Pass to be mentioned in AC of the first set.

1) Even though it has worse overall stats than Espeon, Xatu is arguably a better Magic Bouncer than Espeon because it has better physical bulk and most importantly,...

Firstly, I'm outrightly rejecting the Baton Pass set. Passing on stuff with Espeon is extremely difficult in Ubers due to how hard they hit. You'd be lucky surviving anything with Espeon, let along...

Another minor thing to note for this, IMO, is that Kabutops also has a 4x Fire resistance, so synergistically, Kabutops works very well on sun teams too.

Thanks for the check, Nutrix, I didn't even realise that you had done this until Oglemi alerted it to me a couple of days ago. More GP checks are needed!

I'm sorry but the concept of "countering" (in the traditional sense) every Pokemon in the metagame went out the window in 2007 when D/P was released.

I'd mention HP Flying in AC of the offensive set (probably not good enough for a slash) because it's just too damn awesome. If Celebi isn't running absolutely max HP / max SpD, you actually have a...
