  1. Gen 6 ORAS Ubers Metagame Discussion

    Which is what Ubers has in abundance: overpowered legendaries. It's not like you can't beat Primal Kyogre / Groudon either.
  2. Counter that Pokemon - Mk IV [FINAL MATCH - Team 1 won!]

    Not exactly. 252 SAtk LO Landorus-I Focus Blast vs 248 HP / 8SDef Rotom-W: 48.18% - 56.77% Should Focus Blast land twice...it's more than likely to 2HKO, and it is guaranteed with the small matter of SR damage. Shaky at best to be honest, but iirc the chance of landing two Focus Blasts in a...
  3. Counter that Pokemon - Mk IV [FINAL MATCH - Team 1 won!]

    I think using Vaporeon wouldn't be a good idea. It would just say "Must use Politoed", which means something like Ferrothorn could be a problem for Team 1. Yeah, SpecsToed does huge damage with Focus Blast, but standard Ferrothorn can take on one FB (does a max of 73.3%) and smash it for lots of...
  4. Counter that Pokemon - Mk IV [FINAL MATCH - Team 1 won!]

    I believe you posted the Loom/Keldeo core in the OU Cores thread? Focus Sash Breloom was something I considered posting, but LO Breloom has oomph. Still, Spore + Focus Punch would be tricky to switch into. Hydro Pump is quite a risky move, due to the 80% accuracy. Ice Beam is just reliable...

  6. A Debate Game Interest / (Sign-Up?) Thread

    This looks like it would be a solid project if it were to go ahead. I do like the idea of a Weakest Link debate game as well. I'd follow this, and I am looking forward to any debates.
  7. Counter that Pokemon - Mk IV [FINAL MATCH - Team 1 won!]

    Surprised Breloom hasn't been looked at. First attempt at this, but anyways: Breloom @ Life Orb Trait: Technician EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Spore - Low Sweep - Mach Punch - Bullet Seed Say hello to Breloom. One of the few pokemon alongside the likes of Terrakion that...
  8. BW2 General Metagame Discussion Thread

    But 112 HP Latias lives a +2 Sludge Bomb in the sun at full health (84-99%). If you run DragMag with Latias, you should be able to keep SR off the field in most matches, so as long as you don't let Latias take any damage, you won't have a massive problem with Venusaur. Scarf Latias also...
  9. Creative / Underrated Sets Thread (Read the thread, NO SHITTY GIMMICKS)

    I can attest to this, seeing as how similar it is to Custap Skarmory. However, it and Forretress don't like Starmie all that much, so pairing it up with Weavile and Gengar means you deal with most (if not, all) spinners and you can block Rapid Spin if you must. It works great with weatherless...
  10. The UU Viability Ranking Thread

    Mew in my opinion can work as a stallbreaker, Taunt/WoW/Roost/Psychic or Seismic Toss allows it cripple many slower threats whilst having the bulk to take on some faster threats. However, Heracross gives it huge problems if it runs Guts, and Crobat is generally a faster and better stallbreaker...
  11. Porygon2 - Underestimated?

    Eviolite? Besides, Bronzong (for example) can run Toxic and cripple Porygon2 with it, but idk how rare Toxic is on Bronzong. It is one of a fair few that isn't typically 2HKOd by anything Porygon2 normally runs. Even if you switch Porygon2 out, there are a good number of pokemon in UU that don't...
  12. Porygon2 - Underestimated?

    I'll quickly add my stuff before this dies again. Porygon2 is a great wall, however, it is given problems in general by fighting types. The one thing I noticed that no-one mentioned in this thread is that Porygon2 hates Toxic. Eventually, it will have to switch because poison damage will end...
  13. OU Playstyles - Week #08 [Weatherless Offense] - The Last: Pokemons allowed

    Alakazam is a good choice for Weatherless Offense. Magic Guard + Focus Sash makes it able to revenge kill most threats like +2 Terrakion/+2 Scizor (with HP Fire) and others. Magic Guard also makes it immune to Sand and Hail damage, which of course keeps the Focus Sash permanently intact. You...
  14. Project Ubers 2.0

    I have tested the SubRoar Dialga set, and I can attest to it's effectiveness, though I haven't actually had enough of an opportunity to get a Sub up, though this is against offensive teams. Against stall, it works. Ferrothorn and Forretress can be removed rather easily with this set, and it...
  15. OU Playstyles - Week #05 [Sun Offense] - READ OP FIRST!

    Well, Sun Offense isn't Sun Offense without: @ Life Orb Trait: Chlorophyll Nature: Modest EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe - Growth - Giga Drain / Solarbeam - Hidden Power {Fire} - Sludge Bomb / Sleep Powder That, straight off the analysis. Venusaur should always be considered on a Sun...
  16. Research Week Mk. III #1

    I haven't played UU for some time, but I have had experience with using CB Escavalier. It is probably the best set to run on it, as you can't resist smashing stuff with that juicy 135 base attack. I ran: @ Choice Band Trait: Swarm Nature: Adamant EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk/ 8 Def - Megahorn -...
  17. BW2 General Metagame Discussion Thread

    Hydreigon is a beast, that I can agree with. Specs Hydreigon is quite damn powerful, but LO Mixed Hydreigon is better for just taking down stuff like Chansey. Anyways, I've been using Landorus a fair bit recently. Is it's Sheer Force set the better set to use now? Scarf Landorus with Sand...
  18. BW2 General Metagame Discussion Thread

    I saw a variant of a trapper Heatran on the BW Article for Sun, that works well for me, as I needed a hazard setter for my team that could...do stuff: Heatran (M) @ Air Balloon Trait: Flash Fire EVs: 252 HP / 104 Def / 124 SAtk / 28 Spd Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk) - Magma Storm - Earth Power...
  19. OU Cores in the BW2 Metagame

    Just because you are the one person running Shed Shell Heatran, it doesn't mean it is "ridiculous" and "moronic". It is a well thought up core. It's not like you won't get beaten because of Shed Shell.
  20. OU Cores in the BW2 Metagame

    Staraptor and Lando-T are indeed powerful, but Mamoswine screws them both over. Ice Shard will do large amounts of damage to both (I think that after Brave Bird recoil, Ice Shard OHKOs). Still, they are powerful, but be wary of the crippling Ice weakness the duo would add.
