    doh. Thanks for clearing that up
  2. Sword & Shield Battle Mechanics Research

    I have a question which I'm a bit unclear about, and might have missed something. With the Rusted Sword/Shield, Zacian/Zamazenta are supposed to be Fairy/Steel types, right? In , I noticed that Behemoth Blade (steel) was not very effective and that Sacred Sword (fighting) was super effective...
  3. SPOILERS! Sword and Shield in-game team discussion thread

    I just finished my run through and didn't particularly hunt for pokemon to use much, didn't raid, although I did end up with an entirely physical team which isn't really my preference. It does seem harder to find suitable special pokemon sometimes. Thankfully this basically didn't matter. Here's...
  4. ORAS OU Vindicativa Bellatorum (Hazardous F.W.G - Peaked 1750+)

    I've really been having trouble with Thundurus using this team. No one can do SE damage on it, so it repeatedly comes in and cripples a sweeper with t-wave or forces me to sack something. Talon doesn't OHKO without a boost, and is OHKOed, Starmie and Garchomp are OHKOed, Mega-Lop will be...

  8. ORAS UU The Bird is the Word (peaked #1)

    This team really needs Wish on it to keep Doublade and Heracross healthy, since they are switching into a lot of hits. Honestly, I tried it out and found myself rarely defogging anyway, since on pidgeot is sr weak and most of the time i'd rather hurricane spam or roost than defog. All the same...
  9. ORAS OU Hard Hitting HO Destroyed by Birds Peaked #12 (1772)

    I second the Lum Berry suggestion. It is so useful to be able to switch into Slowbro scald/thunder wave without fear of Status, and ko with knock off/hit a switch. Same with Rotom-W WoW, Mew WoW, every other scald. I haven't noticed a huge loss of power, Knock Off hits like a truck anyway. Maybe...
  10. ORAS OU Eye of the Stall

    Ok, I've been fiddling with this team, and actually struggling to make significant changes. I dropped moonlight for protect on clefable, because though you do lose some flexibility and can be worked around, unaware clefable is one of the few mons that setup sweepers can't really abuse the free...
  11. ORAS OU Heavy Rain (Peaked #1 on OU Ladder)

    Hey, so I've been playing around with this team for a bit now, though I'm not that great at laddering. One change I made was to replace Psychic on Manaphy with Shadow Ball, which trades super effective hits on M-Venu, Chesnaught, Breloom, Keldeo etc. for hitting Ferrothorn neutrally and super...
  12. The Laughing Storm

    Hey Asek. Thanks for those Conkeldurr EVs. I modified them to 200 HP / 80 Atk / 228 SpD, to hit a leftovers number + 1 (although I am really not sure how much this actually helps :/ I tried Heatran, and although it did take little from Genesect's attacks I would regularly find myself forced out...
  13. The Laughing Storm

    Thanks for the rates guys! Electrolyte: SDef Tyranitar did help a great deal with Tornadus-T. Previously I relied on keeping it out still the endgame and sand was dominant for Sandslash to outspeed, whereas now I have a guaranteed switch-in. The two problems I found with it were that it is...
  14. The Laughing Storm

    Reserved for a threatlist. Standard OU Offensive Threats Tyranitar: Choice Band - If lead, then ScarfTar OHKOes with Superpower. Sandslash can always revenge, can't do much to Gyarados if not using Stone Edge. Choice Scarf - Sandslash is faster, can't do much to Jirachi which deals heavy...

    credit to Ted Nasmith for the banner art of Storm's End Introduction Hi everyone! I'm Zedseayou, and I've been casually lurking among competitive Pokemon communities for a while now, especially here. I decided to make an RMT to showcase one of my more effective teams on WiFi OU recently...
