  2. First X and Y RMT

    Hey Smogon, this is my first X and Y team i've built. Any feedback is appreciated, so please help me improve my team. Tyranitar @ Tyranitarite Ability: Sand Stream EVs: 252 Atk / 244 HP / 4 SAtk / 8 Spd Naughty Nature - Stealth Rock - Stone Edge - Crunch - Ice Beam Tyranitar (mega) is my...
  3. The UU Viability Ranking Thread

    Ok, so about this whole Suicune thing... The obvious selling point for not boosting it up to A is that Roserade, Shaymin, Raikou, and Zapdos are running around the tier. I've made a list of the 4 main threats Suicune fears, and why they are all threats to be considered. Roserade- Mauls Suicune...
  4. np: UU Stage 12 - A Beautiful Lie

    I don't see why Froslass' Ghost typing is getting all this praise. The set used to set up Spikes is called 'SUICIDE Lead'. Obviously, this means that Froslass will be gone after she sets up her Spikes. Since Froslass is gone, you still need another Ghost to spinblock, so that advantage of hers...

  6. UU Classification Thread

    Hey, another thing, PTJon7, I think in the potential sets, you should make the sets go in order of usage. i.e.: Heracross Potential sets: Choice Scarf, Choice Band (Scarf is more commonly used) Just an idea. Anyway, i'll be posting many many sets later today, so be prepared:) Edit- I also feel...
  7. Sand Discussion

    There's no need to 'balance out' Hail, because as you said, it only has about 5% usage. It's not overpowered at all, so you shouldn't use it as an argument for bringing back Sand. Anyway, the reason why I don't want the test is because Sand has a very good potential to be broken. And since it...
  8. Sand Discussion

    I'm 100% against allowing Sand to be tested. As Kokoloko said, UU doesn't have a large enough playerbase to split up, so that's out of the picture. The only other option is to test Sand on the regular UU ladder, and that would completely ruin the near-perfect metagame we have right now. My...
  9. The UU Viability Ranking Thread

    So, with no one posting on this thread in five days, i'm going to bring up a topic. Piloswine @ Eviolite Trait: Thick Fat EVs: 252 Atk / 252 HP / 4 SDef Adamant Nature - Earthquake - Ice Shard - Icicle Spear - Stealth Rock Piloswine has been brought up by PTJon7 before, but no...
  10. The UU Viability Ranking Thread

    Even though Sableye can piss on stall teams like you said, most special attackers can deal with Sableye easily. Also, the ever-so-common Fire titans of the tier can switch in to Sableye, and he can't do anything without eating a V-Create/Flare Blitz/FireBlast. His overall shit stats don't do...
  11. UU Team Study - Week 2 (team provided by reachzero)

    As a firm believer that teambuilding is the most important aspect in any tier, i'm very happy to see a thread like this up. Anyway, this team looks like it relies on Swampert and Froslass to get its hazards up, while using Cofagrigus to spinblock. The hazards wear the opponent's team down so...
  12. I am not moving tiers anymore. My final Black team

    If your team is an in-game team, then it shouldn't be on here. This thread is for teams that are meant to get somewhere competitively, and using things like Offensive Liepard over Swagger/Foul Play Liepard won't cut it. I have to agree with everyone else, if you want to get into competitive...
  13. The UU Viability Ranking Thread

    Why would you use something with base 80 Spa as a special attacker? And if it gets rid of the common Flygon counters, i'm assuming the pokemon that counter physical Flygon.... but then you can't run physical Flygon, for you're running special... so it doesn't matter if it kills Flygon counters...
  14. The UU Viability Ranking Thread

    But the fact that Flygon has base 100 Attack, and needs to lock itself into Outrage, which makes it easily revenge-killable, can't be forgotten. When I run a Scarfer, I want something that can OHKO frail threats. Flygon doesn't even do that sometimes, and if something resists EQ, it's forced to...
  15. The UU Viability Ranking Thread

    So... With all that talk about Snorlax done, I think we need to talk about Flygon. I don't think that it deserves to be A-Rank. Its below average stats of 80-100-80-80-80-100 make almost every set it uses to be not threatening. The most common set, the Choice Scarf one, is done by Mienshao...
  16. The UU Viability Ranking Thread

    I agree with what you said about Dusclops, but i'm pointing out that my reason stated in my previous post, and the fact that the playerbase loves to hate on Dusclops is why it's in E-Rank. I agree with Exbo, and I think that Dusclops should be D-Rank, but it's not much of a difference...
  17. The UU Viability Ranking Thread

    As a person who hasn't used Dusclops much, I can't really vouch for it being good. The only reason why I think it's it E-Rank is because players love to shit on random things for no reason. Dusclops does have incredible bulk with Eviolite, but it has absolutely zero offensive presence, which...
  18. The UU Viability Ranking Thread

    Keep in mind that Slowbro exists also, and he does the same job of walling Fightings and Fires Here's a list of pros and cons of each Slowbro Pros- -Reliable recovery in Slack Off -Regenerator lets him regain even more health -Better HP,Def, and Sdf (even though you shouldn't be staying in on...
  19. Toy Soldiers

    Yeah, I remember playing you too. I've seen people run bulky Rotoms, do you think investing in either Def or Sdf would be better? The point of the HP is just to give him some more overall bulk.
  20. Toy Soldiers

    Toy Soldiers A mix of bulk and offense UU is hands-down my favorite tier. Nothing is over-powered to the point of ruining the metagame, and nothing is overused to the point of every team being similar. I think UU has morphed into one of the most balanced tiers, and it's just really fun to play...
