    Tangela is a beast in the sun. Tack x2 speed onto massive defence and fantastic special attack, and you have a force to be reckoned with. Keeping in mind that it is in the sun, it has access to STAB 120 BP Solarbeam, with no charge. It's only downfall is the fact that it's special defence is...
  2. My First Real OU Team

    like taylor mentioned, a rain dancing ludicolo isn't beneficial to your team at all. Besides itself, rain dance does not help any of your pokemon. In fact, it hurts a few of them by making fire attacks weaker, and water attacks stronger (mence and infernape). Rain dance does not work in...
  3. I hate showing people my team, but...here goes nothing

    My question is how you deal with a lead gyara (or more importantly, an azelf). They commonly carry taunt, which absolutely rapes your gengar. What you fear in azelf is the fact that you can't even sleep if first, as it ouspeeds gengar. Just a thought
  4. The Choice to Be Different

  5. Smogon's Shoddy Battle Server to be released soon

    And why exactly, do you no longer have to worry about Wobbuffet and Garchomp? They are both going to be OU pokemon on the new server, as far as I know.
  6. Sand team built off Kabutops.

    I was going to say the exact same thing as the above. Sandstream will help more in the tanking for the water/rock types (relicanth, omastar, and kabutops), but relicanth is the best suited for this, by far. Swift Swim kabutops is so much more effective in sweeping in the rain compared to in...
  7. DP Research Thread #4 ("Newer still")

    I can answer this question: "Does Heal Block prevent you from using Aqua Ring and Ingrain, or does it just block their healing for 5 turns?" I used my Giritina's heal block against Cynthia's Milotic. The next move it used was Aqua Ring, but it didn't gain any HP back. So it just blocks healing...

    What breeding chain would I need to execute to get an Elekid that knows cross chop and ice punch? Thanks for any help.
