  1. Resource Simple Questions, Simple Answers Thread (read the op before posting a thread)

    Would you say that you need a ground type on every team? I ask cos I'm kind of bored of using Lando/Chomp/Gliscor on every team lol. If it's not necessary, how would you best build around that? Thanks.
  2. Resource Simple Questions, Simple Answers Thread (read the op before posting a thread)

    How do you go about building offense teams in this meta? I start with an offensive core, but always rely on the same balance mons to finish the team (ferro, pex, etc). I find it hard when building offense to see what my counter play is to stuff without having the reliable switch ins you find on...
  3. Umbreon

    Might have to try this on sun stall. Umbreon does get access to Moonlight, making it an interesting alternative to Cresselia, and hard checks any Palkia without Aura Sphere, who needs a boost to 2HKO with Aura Sphere. A sun stall set of: -Moonlight -Foul Play -Heal Bell -Taunt Definitely looks...
  4. Silly Things You Have Seen On the Ubers Ladder!

    Rain Dance and Sunny Day Electivire carrying Thunder and Flamethrower. The redefining anti-metagame threat is here.
  5. Ubers Stats - August 2013

    Lugia still being at 15 in 1850 is silly. Also I really think Heracross needs more usage. Bug/Fighting is an incredible combination in Ubers, hitting the many Psychic and Steel types hard, if not OHKOing. While it may be outclassed by scarf Terrakion in most cases, Heracross is a very viable...
  6. Braving the Storm

    What arcticblast said. I don't even think I've made a weatherless team in the past 6 months that didn't have either a rain dance Kingdra or a Hail Starmie, among other things. On top of that, Drizzle is 100% not being banned.

    Yes it would be... If Kyogre actually got Draco Meteor ._.
  8. Hardest video game bosses

    If any of you have played the PSN version of Metal Gear Solid before the PS1 version, please tell me that you found Psycho Mantis impossible too. I'd never played MGS on the PS1, so I thought I'd pick it up on PSN. When I got to Mantis, I didn't have the faintest fucking idea what to do. His...
  9. Project Ubers 2.0

    Use this please. It's not the best thing on the planet, but it's fucking hilarious to use against any kind of weather team, and can end up being clutch if you pull off a Hail before <insert weather abuser here> destroys you. Arceus-Ice @ Icicle Plate Trait: Multitype EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 Spd / 4...
  10. Silly Things You Have Seen On the Ubers Ladder!

    This is actually the preferred set on a hail team, seeing as your Sturdy is broken the first turn you're in anyway. But judging by that Garchomp set, I don't think he was taking that into consideration...
  11. Silly Things You Have Seen On the Ubers Ladder!

    I've seen the combo of Extreme Killer Arceus and Extreme Killer Linoone before. A traditional offensive combo, similar to Mence/Quaza. Send in your Arceus to weaken threats so the all powerful Linoone can do the cleaning.
  12. Other Looking Ahead to Gen VI Mark II (SEE POSTS #818 & #858)

    To those of you saying Lucario won't have base 157 attack, don't count your chickens, lol. If they're willing to give Mawile what is the equivalent of a base 210 attack or something (Idk how it's calculated but it's around that), and buff Mewtwo's special attack, a Lucario with base 157 attack...

    lol, yea it's pretty dumb. The genwunner argument is like the pokemon equivalent of Godwin's law, it's so friggin dumb. I think gen 6 hype will die eventually, just gotta stay off the internet for a while, lol.
  14. Ask an Uber Question, Get an Uber Answer (Read FAQs in First Post Before Asking)

    While I don't think the sheer force set is good at all, I have had success using it alongside Excadrill to soften up its checks and counters, such as Skarmory and Groudon. Sand Force is by far the better set, but don't discount the chance of sheer force in a Mence/Quaza style duo.
  15. np: BW OU Suspect Testing Round 12 - Always (I Wanna Be With You) [SEE POST #263]

    Burningman, whilst its true that Keldeo has very respectable bulk, I think its unfair to assume that Keldeo will be healthy enough to withstand revenge killing. As you say yourself, Keldeo's typing makes it a good switchin to very common pokemon like Scizor, meaning it's susceptible to taking...
  16. np: BW OU Suspect Testing Round 12 - Always (I Wanna Be With You) [SEE POST #263]

    Just like I said a while back with Kyurem-B, Keldeo isn't broken, but I assume a lot, if not the majority of players don't enjoy its presence in OU. Keldeo does have counters that are very viable outside of dealing with Keldeo, such as Jellicent, Toxicroak (who is one of the best pokemon in this...
  17. Serious What to do about Bullying?

    Firstly, I really don't see how you can change the way parents raise children without reducing their reproductive rights, which is a whole separate argument to be having. So long as the child is not being raised in any imminent physical or emotional danger, then parents are free to raise their...
  18. Ubers Stats June 2013

    Meh. Nitpicking. Whirwlind doesn't stop ferrothorn or forretress setting up on it btw. As soon as they're whirlwinded out, they just switch back in anyway. And if you're using Lugia on a hazard stacking team, then it's inferior to pokemon like Giratina-O, Ho-Oh, even Kyurem B pulls off a...
  19. When did Pokémon lose its way?

    Before I make this post, I want to preface it with something. It bugs me that whenever I feel GF/Nintendo/whoever make a decision that I don't agree with when it comes to pokemon, I'm instantly labelled as a genwunner and my opinions are bat aside as nothing more than the whining of someone who...
  20. The Ubers Viability Ranking Thread (Now Taking Write-Ups)

    You know, I'm not seeing much love for SD Ghostceus. I'm not saying it's better than CM (absolutely far from it), but it's a decent alternative to EKiller for HO teams, and certainly not unviable like some are making out. Firstly, please do not use Shadow Claw on it, Shadow Force is far...
