I was just thinking that Giga Drain could be awesome on Butterfree. At the very least it I think it could be better than substitute or HP rock in some cases.

As Sandslash now has access to Sand Rush, it has finally found away to surpass Donphan. While 110 Def, 100 Atk, 65 Spe are somewhat lacking, given Sand Rush, Swords Dance, and Rapid Spin I think Sandslash is worth looking into.

UPDATE'd I know a new ban list is coming up soon but this team has struggled to keep up with the changing metagame so any advice would be welcomed.

I for one would be quite interested in seeing this type of tier/rule set implemented on the Smogon server. While I know that may not be the point of this thread, I feel that a metagame, which more closely resembles in-game competitive battling would be interesting.

Major update New Pokemon added to the team. Thoughts? Ideas?

Just as a general note I would like to thank you, the people, for showing your support and love for the revolution. Our chains will soon be broken my friends. Also great news comrades, Adam Smith (Doryuuzu) and Nicholas II (Skymin) have been purged. What forces could possibly stop the...

I will tryout a Scarf on Waruvial, thanks for the suggestions. Jaroda Thank you for correction. I feel a if Doom Desire (the way it was in gen IV) would be better suited for my u-turning Jirachi and the current DD is not appropriate for his role as a lead. lampost44 I find the lack...

United Forever in Friendship and Labour A Gen V OU RMT Some music to set the tone Comrades! The revolution is at hand and the Vanguard is beginning to be mobilized. I call upon you, the workers, to view these great and awe-inspiring figures before you and 'rate' how effective they will be at...

At a glance Agirudaa (M) @ Focus Sash Trait: Sticky Hold EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - U-turn - Spikes - Bug Buzz - Death Gambit This guy serves as my lead more often than not. The ability to lay down spikes, with his blistering speed, is...

I don't have enough talent to make this idea come to life myself but maybe someone would like to give it a try. I was thinking of having a vortex of teeth and atomic energy based off a Lamprey. Anyone else like the idea? EDIT: Sorry only read the first few pages when I posted this so I...

Thank you for your comments. I've decided to give Azriel's hitmonlee set a go and I put Brick Break on Scyther. This however was done more for Aggron, Registeel, and Steelix as Bug Bite does more to Rhyperior than Brick break. I'll update my main post sometime today.

This team was originally made to just use the fastest pokemon in UU metagame and see how it turned out. Electrode, Spectile, etc. It evolved overtime into the team before you today. I guess this could be considered a hyper-offense team as it mostly based around priority (and to a lesser extent...

Hey I'm a bit new to this thread so forgive me if this has been discussed already but with Slowking being moved to UU is there a pokemon that can replace him on a trick room team? The role he played for my team was to utilize his bulkiness to make sure I had a reliable user to trick room. Grass...

I feel as if this must have been requested at some point but after trying 'NU' and 'never used' in the forum search and coming up with nothing I figured why not be the one to request a NU ladder or at least add my voice in the potential debate about its inclusion. I apologize if this has been...

Thanks for all the help. dragonite08: My Machamp has worked well for me thus far, but I feel as if he won't serve me well tournament wise. If anywould could tell me some common leads in tournaments that would be appricated. Eggbert: It did help, but I am just torn on if I should update him...

This team so far has been rather successful in ladder games (have yet to enter a tournament with it) but I feel as if it could be much better. I have ran out of ideas to greatly help this set and so I turn for you guys for help. This is an extremely offensive term with the sole exception of...

Question: Now that Crobat is out of UU (for now) is Cloyster still a good lead? EDIT: Also is there a Eeveelution that would fit my team better than Leafeon?

I added HP Ice to Amoharos to deal with DD Altaria. I also added Focus Blast to him and got rid of toxic.

Thanks Smallarf. I changed up my Ampharos as you suggested. I normally hate choice movesets but I think it could work with this guy. Leafeon has like wise been changed. I thought about the baton pass for Scyther but I need X-Scissor to deal with Physics if Houndoom dies. I will test it out...
