  1. RU Stage 6 - np: Renegade

    I am actually very shocked that durant was banned, and 7-2 vote no less! i rarely ever saw any, and hustle really is a hamper to its abilities. The rare occasion i did see one, it was never a problem, manectric laughed in its face when i packed one of those, cofagrigus took away its great...
  2. Cryogonal (OU Rapid Spin) [QC 0/3]

    who says that they are going to be alive? i know it is a valid point that they can kill him, but you dont base a pokemon's validity on the fact that those 2 things can kill it, not everybody packs a ttar or a scizor, they are used a lot, but it doesnt mean they are always going to be there to...
  3. Cryogonal (OU Rapid Spin) [QC 0/3]

    Yay, a bunch of people playing theorymon, "pursuit will kill it!". Well who said it is cryo vs scizor and ttar? Prediction and team support is key to any pokemon. I can sit here and say that ttar sucks because conkeldurr spits in its face and easily OHKOes it, but that is just me playing...
  4. Durant Suspect Discussion

    My 2 cents here: first off, I do think that the fact that hustle gives durant stone edge level accuracy should really be considered. He relies on hone claws for the LO set, and the choice band set has no way to ameliorate the poor accuracy. When times come where it needs to hit, especially...
  5. January 2012 Usage stats

    That would be me dear sir, i also run ice gem w/ice beam on it too lol my real purpose for this was because i already had too much set up going on on my team, and i needed a special attacker who could just come in and start shooting away instantly. Charge beam is for SpA boosts and ice beam has...
  6. Shadows In The Sky

    well this second page turned quite sour to say the least lol. let those who will be envious say what they will dcae, jealous hearts lead to ignorant statements *cough* miss dice *cough* and to luketastic, i have been testing this team since dcae posted it and i never encountered a machamp, i...
  7. RU Analyses Discussion Thread

    Hi all, cant really seem to find the right place to post this, but there is an error in the SubCharge magneton set: http://www.smogon.com/bw/pokemon/magneton It suggests 96 HP / 252 SpA / 176 Spe for the EV investment However, that totals to 524 EVs invested, which is obviously not legally...
  8. Technical Support (read OP before posting!)

    @ antar, it was on the smogon server but hasn't happened again, at least with me that is.
  9. Technical Support (read OP before posting!)

    Just a heads up, about a week ago PO allowed me to play standard RU with a flame body moltres even though that is a currently unreleased dream world ability. Not sure if it was just a bug that day, but ive tried to do it again with numerous unreleased abilities (including flame body moltres...
  10. Shadows In The Sky

    Had the most epic match ive ever witnessed with this team and can confirm that fire blast was absolutely necessary to break through the opponents skarmory, so that is some battle experience to back up its validity. Now to revoke some of my first statements, sandstorm teams arent so much of an...
  11. Shadows In The Sky

    Hey there dcae, ive been trying this team out and so far it has worked great, within my first 6 battles i won them all and hit a 1243 rating before losing 2. I noticed when playing that the biggest threat was sandstorm teams, as with stealth rocks up and residual sandstorm damage, it severely...
  12. Counter that RU Pokemon!!

    Before posting the original counter, i ran about 2 standard RU battles with flame body to confirm it. im guessing it was due to a bug or glitch that i was allowed in standard RU battles. But upon trying again today, i was properly redirected to DW OU tier for battling.
  13. Ask a Simple Question Get a Simple Answer - RU Edition

    Thanks to ditto crow and batman for the help. I'll be sure to try out those options.
  14. Counter that RU Pokemon!!

    Flame Body is released on moltres and allowed on the smogon PO server under standard RU. It is also superior to pressure on an offensive set.
  15. Ask a Simple Question Get a Simple Answer - RU Edition

    I am having serious troubles with ludicolos in the rain. What is a counter that can take a hit from one of its STAB moves and OHKO it or at least get it into a reliable revenge killing range. It is only weak to bug, flying, and poison type moves, and there is no real solid pokemon with those...
  16. Counter that RU Pokemon!!

    Moltres @ Life Orb Ability: Flame Body EVs: 252 SpA/ 252 Spe/ 4 Def Timid Nature - Fire Blast - Hidden Power Grass - Air Slash - Roost The only thing that steelix can do to it is is try to dragon tail it out or catch it with an earthquake on the roost if moltres switches into stealth rocks...
  17. Counter that RU Pokemon!!

    Feraligatr(M) @ leftovers Trait: Torrent EVs: 252 HP/ 124 Atk/ 100 Def/ 32 Spe Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SpA) - Dragon Dance - Waterfall - Earthquake - Ice Punch This thing can just set up in torkoals face with DD and then take it out with a waterfall, and then proceed to sweep if it gets...
  18. Porygon-Z Suspect Discussion

    There is just simply no true counter or wall to this guy. And unless you have a decent counter in as pory z comes out, you cant afford to switch into your most viable option to stop it as it wrecks any poke that it hits, be it neutral damage or even not very effective on some occasions. The most...
  19. 3v3 singles, no dream world, no legendaries

    I think something like a choice scarfed haxorus or hydreigon could be extremely threatening to the team, unless you lead with your starmie and can get a OHKO with an ice beam. The hydreigon could be especially dangerous as it can also run a special attacking set with scarf, and overall your team...
  20. Crowtei Devastation (Peak #28)

    That poliwrath really is one of the best walls in the RU tier, and very unexpected too, counters entei extremely well and its STAB phazing circle throw is invaluable. I can testify to its usefulness as i have adopted one to my team. btw i am Serperior Looks on PO, just in case you couldnt figure...
