    That was me you were playing. To me, it was a 50/50, because I know Blissey is set up fodder for Lucario. My Blissey has T-wave and I was getting ready to click, but at the last second decided to switch. Had I followed my gut, I would crippled Luc for the rest of the game. And you'd have to...

    UU Simple Questions Thread

    I'm trying to find good 3-mon Offensive cores that are good at covering each other, while providing good offensive momentum. Any suggestions?

    Considering that your main offensive threats are Ambipom with strictly normal moves and Hitmonlee, I would consider replacing something with the best Ghostbuster in the tier: CB Snorlax. Lead Ambipom draws Ghosts like moths to a flame, which means you can bring in Snorlax to smite it down. That...

    Living Proof (Peaked #1)

    Using my bump here, the changes I did above have been working very effective. Anyone know how/willing to make a banner for my team?

    Trailmixing (Peaked #1 with win/loss ratio at 27:1)

    Playing styles are indeed a thing. No matter what the optimal style may be, or 'meta', if it doesn't fit into what the player themselves like to play, they won't like it and play what does. If someone considers themselves an offensive player, if the current meta is stall, the offensive player...

    The Power Is Yours!

    I go about Blastoise and spinners in 2 ways: 1) If I see Blastoise on the opposing, I carry on as planned more times than not, just making sure he is Taunted before Aero dies. As you said, not much I can really do against it other than Taunting it and getting some damage off on it before Aero...

    Pickin' Up Speed (Momentous UU Offense)

    I suggest putting Stealth Rock on Nidoqueen over Focus Blast or Fire Blast. You can't rely on Xatu to bounce Rocks back for you all the time because if your opponent predicts around you and kills Xatu while their Rocker is alive, then chances are they will get Rocks up and you won't, putting you...

    The Power Is Yours!

    I don't really want to use U-turn over Superpower. It's really helpful in getting reliable kills on weakened things before setting up the Rain and having Tornadus die. Also, Tornadus is so fast that more times than not, he'll be faster on the U-Turn and my switch in will get hit regardless. And...

    The Power Is Yours!

    Yeah, the SmashPass Core is nice, but the things I didn't like about the second half of the team I changed to my own liking which got me to what I got now. Thanks for the tips, I'll definitely keep them in mind. I do like Magic Coat a lot and will give that a try. I'm a little more hesitant on...

    Hello again everyone! I'm here bringing you guys another RMT, but I'm sure you already knew that. Below I'll be going into how I came into this team, if you want to skip on passed that and go straight to the team, feel free. Meet the Planeteers: Earth! == Fire! == Wind! == = Water...

    Abusement Park (Peaked No.1)

    Cool team, I've seen replays of it/seen you use it before. I think you could go with PTJon's suggestion of Super Fang over Cross Poison as it really is a poor attacking type, or you can just go with 2 attack Band Crobat. So if you do happen to be put to sleep by something, you will have a 50/50...

    Twin Dragons Rising [Peaked #4]

    I think I may have played you before when you were using this team. Cool team. I have a couple suggestions though: I feel you should use HP Grass over Ice on Raikou. It gives you a more reliable move against the likes of Swampert and Rhyperior that would otherwise slow Raikou down. It allows...

    Heart Attack (Sneaked #2)

    This is a cool team, really cool. Durant is a threat and I definitely need to use it some time. I know Swarm doesn't leave you open to Hustle miss shenanigans, but with Hone Claws, you negate the downside of Hustle and you get A TON of power, especially against those Steel and Bulky Water types...

    Posting to say that I decided to forego Toxic Spikes on Roserade and went with a more readily offensive move option in Giga Drain. Why? Because it lets me deal with the Water Types I commonly switch into without having to use Leaf Storm and subsequently being forced to switch out and potentially...

    Chulahoma (UU Offense)

    I'm a fan of this team, I almost wish I thought of it myself. A couple things: 1) I support Hydro Pump over Draco Meteor on Kingdra. I understand your reasoning behind Draco Meteor, but I feel that Hydro Pump (even with it's bad accuracy) is necessary for certain KO's that you could miss out on...

    Living Proof (Peaked #1)

    The only thing about that is that losing Roserade would open me up to things that weren't typically a problem, like Will-o-wisp from Sableye and Toxic Spikes. My team doesn't really appreciate either of those things. I do like the suggestion for Psychic on Cof, I'll look into that more. Thanks...

    Living Proof (Peaked #1)

    Recently I've gone back to using Raikou over Rotom-H. They both have their positive and negatives, but I largely feel better about Raikou's ability to set-up versus Rotom-H's ability to potentially cripple something. I still reserve the right to switch, but for now, Raikou is still on the team...
