Well, I tried using a Scyther with a metronome and Fury Cutter once, and it was absolute garbage. Even with Technician, the first few times you use it are just way too weak to make Fury Cutter of any use...

I love this set. I used it myself a lot, although in 5th Gen, I'd change Shadow Ball for Evil Eye, which is more powerful than Shadow Ball if the opponent has a status.

Yes, that was something I thought of as well, although I mainly had Skarmory in mind, so I chose for Rock Slide in the end. However, now that you mention it, Brick Break may be the superior choice.

This could work against walls who think of Hypno as a specially defensive poke, or just don't know what it does at all, crippling them. But aren't the speed EV's better spent on HP, seeing as Hypno'll only Trick away its Scarf and then has no real use for the speed anymore, and the HP EV's can...

It does? Sweet! Anyways, I used to run HP Grass, but Shanderaa would come in and ruin its day...oh well, I had Poliwrath for backup.

Sorry for the bump, but I think our chilly friend here shouldn't be limited to Hail teams only: Bainbanira@Petaya Berry (Life Orb is probably better, maybe even Wise Glasses) Broken Armour -Body Purge -Hidden Power Grass/Electric -Ice Beam -Weather Ball When I saw Weather Ball in its...

You could also use a -Spd nature on Ninetales, and a Cherrim to boost Typhlosion's attacks even more, so you don't need the Specs, but can use Life Orb/Wise Glasses. If Ninetales is purely used to set up sun, Will-o-Wisp and Hypnosis are pretty good options for it as well. By the way, what is...

How about: Cloyster@Life Orb 252Atk/252Spd/4HP Skill Link -Shell Break -Icicle Spear -Rock Blast -Waterfall Mamanbou@Leftovers 252HP/252SpD/4Def (probably not the best spread, but oh well) Healing Heart -Wide Guard -Healing Beam -Wish -Boiling Water/Safeguard/Helping Hand...

I just checked, and I'm pretty sure there's no way for Charizard to learn Quick Attack. Typhlosion and Blaziken do though.

With DeapSeaTooth and max. SpAtk, Clamperl reaches a whopping 540 SpAtk, iirc, which is the highest in the game. Also, as mentioned before, being able to change moves is very good, since you don't want to waste any turns of TR and Rain. It's a shame its movepool is so horrible, although you...

I have only one question: Where's Clamperl? I mean, this team provides the perfect circumstances for a Clamperl sweep. Its movepool and bulk are far inferior to Slowkings, but Clamperls raw power and ability to change moves should make up for that. Also, you could swap out Octillery's Expert...

Skarmory and Gengar can't be poisoned, being Steel en Poison type respectively, even though it'll hurt Gengar, since Fling is Dark type.

Hmm...I'll give it a try next time I'm on Shoddy. I'll go with Toxic, since I feel like I don't really have enough statuses. The synergy wouldn't change too much, although I do gain another Fighting weakness, which'll make Rotom and Starmie even more important. It is nice that, with their Ghost...

After returning to Shoddy from a short break, I decided to make a full mono (because wildcards don't make sense to me) Dark team for OU and UU. After the OU team started failing after a while, I decided to make a new team. This one would be based around a Lucario set I came up with (although I...

Now, I'm far from an expert at this, but a few things I noticed: - Cloyster packs Explosion, and you say it pairs up with Abomasnow nicely. In that case, I'd give Abomasnow Protect to prevent Cloyster from killing it when it blows up. Or, I misread it, and you only intend to use it when Cloyster...

Here are two sets I've used a couple of times, and have worked pretty well: Lucario@Life Orb Modest nature EV's: 252SpAtk/252Spd/4(Sp)Def Moves: -Agility -Aura Sphere -Shadow Ball -Hidden Power Grass/Ice I've always heard people say SD Lucario was so great, even though I never had problems...

I've been wanting to test this for some time, but since Shoddy doesn't have Recycle (also no Iron Ball, I think), I never got the chance to. Also, I'm pretty sure it doesn't work, but meh, I want to try it once anyways: Wigglytuff@Iron Ball, Adamant nature EV's: 252HP/252ATK/4DEF IV's: 0SPD...
