    Project The Top 10 Titans of the 6th Gen OU Metagame

    Clefable since it has been the most threatening pokemon in OU for a long time now, and it was good for most of XY as well.

    Mega-pinsir is one of the most team-restrictive pokemon in OU. If you use it you pretty much have to dedicate 2 additional moveslots to support it (magnezone+hazard control). It's not something you slap on a team lightly because it will force you to revolve your entire strategy around it. The...

    Don't worry. Venu does its job adequately even without synthesis. Remember, this is a not meant to be a defensive team that can switch in on top threats all day. As I said, there is room for experimentation. If you really want synthesis for a more defensive approach you can always try another...

    How do you face and overcome your own mortality?

    Coming to terms with one's mortality is not always easy. That's the price we have to pay for our intelligence. 1. I don't go around and worry about death. I am not dreading the day I die, but I don't welcome it either. Everything is transitory and nothing is permanent, not even love. The truth...

    np: XY OU Suspect Testing Round 6 - Wrecking Ball [Read Post 423 for Posting etiquette]

    I don't think anyone in their right mind would argue for a ban ONLY to cater to one playstyle. That would be silly. Mawile is banworthy because it is extremely hard to wall AND hard to check thanks to sucker punch. That was why mega kanga was banned, even though it was a more obvious case. Gard...

    np: XY OU Suspect Testing Round 6 - Wrecking Ball [Read Post 423 for Posting etiquette]

    No. Because it is extremely low risk & high reward. You can predict around all you want but prediction is in fact nothing more than qualified guesswork. Risk vs reward analysis is more reliable. Throwing away a play rough is very low risk while trying to switch into mawile can quite easily mean...

    np: XY OU Suspect Testing Round 6 - Wrecking Ball [Read Post 423 for Posting etiquette]

    The main issue with mega mawile is the lazy playstyle it promotes. Just throw out a play rough and it will do huge damage to most of the meta. It's similar to aegi in that regard, which could come in easily thanks to great typing and bulk and proceed to fire off a shadow ball. Mawile also have...

    The taunt/rest/psyshock/trick gothitelle set can single handedly beat entire stall teams. This is from the VR thread "creative and innovative movesets": Basically, if completely owning stall is what you want to do this set is something to look into.

    Ok but clefable doesn't have any issues with setting up a few calm minds, so what is the problem?

    Clefable is of the most versatile pokemon in the game. Its physically defensive unaware set stops most setup sweepers cold, while the bulky CM sweeper sets with magic guard can sweep entire teams with little concern as soon as its checks are weakened. It is a solid win condition for almost any...

    Other OU Playstyle of the Week - Balance

    I'm not a particularly good teambuilder, but the balanced team that I have had most success with consisted of CMfable, BulkyZard, Prankster thundurus, Scarf Lanto-t, Skarm and Azumarill. I don't know how obvious it is but this team was built when mega pinsir was all the rage. It could beat HO...

    Baton Pass - its role in the metagame and possible solutions to nerf full Baton Pass chains

    Scince haunter has already stated on page 76 that the nerf will be on limiting the number of pokemon with BP on one team (3 or 4), we should probably discuss that instead of whether to ban certain pokes. Just saying. If we limit BP to 3 pokes, baton pass will not be broken at all anymore , I...

    The biggest problem with hippo is that he has a bad case of 4MSS. Earthquake and slack off are a must on every set. It also wants to be able to set up stealth rocks. Almost every set will carry stealth rocks. It also wants whirlwind to phaze any sweeper who tries to set up on it. That's four...
