Nidoqueen will get raped as a lead. Mostly by Azelf. A taunt will be enough to render it useless, since earthquake doesn't hit anyway. You should opt for a Tentacruel over Donphan since it doesn't do much other than that. Tentacruel can at least T-spike and it makes having Nidoqueen alot less...

Empoleon has only Water and Ice attacks. So if this team is to be based to support him, you'll need to get rid of 2 things. Blissey, Generic bulky waters. While Blissey can be taken care of by your Scizor, if it uses protect when you pursuit it, it can flamethrower you back to death while...

To be frank, the Probopass seems a little useless to me. You've already a steel trapper in Magnezone. Not to mention he adds to the massive ground weakness. Your team is lacking speed-wise as well. Use a scarf sweeper for some speed. I recommend a gengar for that spot to revenge kill...

For Latias, I think you are going to prefer either an all out CMattacker, or a wish passer. Latias needs to focus on either one. Otherwise her Calm minds are going to waste if a team mate is in need of a wish. Plus it'd do you no good if your Latias can't heal itself quickly enough to avoid...

Latias@Flame Orb Timid/Bold Nature EVs: 252 HP 176 Spe 80 SpA/ 252 HP 252 Def 4 SpD -Trick/Psycho shift -Recover -Dragon Pulse -Hidden power[fire]/Surf/Refresh/Psycho Shift The Tricker: This could work I guess, Latias can lure it's counters(T-tar, Scizor, etc.) and trick can make a...

Scizor isn't a flying type. It's a Steel/bug type. Only reason wishbliss cannot have heal bell is because Blissey only gets wish through events. Wish cannot be passed down through breeding and Aromatherapy/Heal bell require breeding. I'd still recommend a wishbliss though. Your team...

I used to use a a Latias a while back in ADV against my friends(who use ubers) and this following set proved to be effective against their Blazikens, Salamence, etc. Although it is a completely different game with the all of DPPt's changes, I think it could work well as a good counter to some...

Despite this, Flygon has been able to kO many a lucario, it is afterall a revenge killer in a way. So I don't see how an Ice punch can come faster than Flygon unless it was scarf-ed. Gyarados hasn't posed a problem to me before. Zapdos always seems to survive it's SE's and kill it But it...

Intro: I have been testing and playing around with my team for a good 2 and half months and I think I have gotten the formula right. Plus I managed to make it pretty colourful :) So here is an overview of the team: The Team: Heatran: Ruby Ability: Flash Fire Item: Life Orb...

Better than You! Well, not really, but here's the team. An overview of the team: Intro: Well, my last team was 'somewhat' successful, but I decided to try something newer with Platinum's changes and this team isn't a stall or Offensive team. Rather it is a balance between offence and...

I noticed that and Life orb with spikes does a number to her. I just don't like LO on her. However, I'll try it out. Destiny bond could work over HP:Fighting since she can take down something before she dies.

I think that Bronzong would much better benefit from lum berry instead of leftovers due to the large number of scarf'd gengar leads. Suicune looks a little out of place, you might want to change him or tentacruel. Drapion works well as a Toxic Spiker.

Calm mind? I see a use for it, but Ice beam gets walled alot. And it can't seem to stay in on those who resist it, such as Aggron. And I'd really hate for Light screen to go since drapion and hitmontop aren't exactly spectacular in that department. Thank you very much for that wonderful list...

Exactly. 306 only lets you beat the max of neutral natured base 100s. I've used the standard spread and it works wonders. I don't think there's anything there to outrun. Will-o-wisp is a far better alternative when not stalling a blissey. Will-o-wisp can also help weaken SDluke's blows by...

How much does Draco meteor do to a physical wall? I mean, most of UU's steel physical walls, the nidos and drapion die to EQ. Yeah, couldn't think of another theme. Really? Who should I replace? Altaria's basically filler and I would forgo him anytime as soon as another sweeper comes about. I...

Like many others in smogon, I have turned to the underused tier because of how boring OU has become(to me). I've have recently started so all criticism is appreciated. My team's objective is to set up spikes, stall and weaken the opponent until Froslass and Altaria are ready to sweep. Without...

Support Ampharos [SET] name: Support Ampharos move 1: Discharge move 2: Hidden Power [Ice]/[Grass] move 3: Reflect move 4: Heal bell item: Leftovers ability: Static nature: Bold evs: 252 HP/120 Def/136 SpA [SET COMMENTS] The 'Ampha-boah' set in the Analysis didn't show much of Ampharos'...

I've recently(today lol) tried my luck at UU and found it to be a little underpopulated but I had more fun than I did in OU because OU pokes are really cliche-d with the Celetrandoszapchompbliss teams running around way too much. So anyways, I've been using several Underused UU(lol) pokemon...

I think it is depending on a situation. For example, a blissey, which currently lost its wishpassing ability, can only be described an excellent special wall. It shouldn't be called, "the special wall which can paralyze". I think Thunderwave isn't worth mentioning since more than a 100 can learn...

I really hate Metagross as a lead. I think the top lead should be Bronzong right now and metagross is completely walled by it and if you switch out, he'll set up rocks or put another poke to sleep. I realize that your Entire team is completely choice'd. It's not going to win alot due to the...
