    XY UU im a gay sea otter i blow other dudes outta the water

    Ever since Vaporeon has joined the UU tier back in the beginning of September, I've been having fun making a lot of teams with it, and this team is probably the most consistent I've come up with. This team was actually inspired by user st123, who used a similar looking balance, but centered...

    UU Vaporeon

    Overview ######## Vaporeon returns to UU as one of the best clerics of the tier. Thanks to its pure Water typing and excellent mixed defenses, it can be very hard to KO. Water Absorb might seem redundant due to Vaporeon already resisting Water-type attacks, but it allows it to be immune to...

    UU Sableye

    Overview ######## Sableye once again finds itself at home in UU as one of the tier's few viable spinblockers. Thanks to Prankster, Sableye gets priority on support moves such as Taunt, Will-O-Wisp, and Recover which helps it shut down set-up sweepers, physical attackers, and support Pokemon...

    UU Aromatisse

    Overview ######## As a Fairy-type cleric, Aromatisse faces stiff competition for a teamslot. Florges has greater Speed, power, and special bulk. However, Florges lacks Aromatisse's raw physical bulk, which lets it survive attacks from Choice Banded Fighting-types such as Mienshao and...
