I've haven't seen many SB pokes, but Azumarill seems to counter them fairly well.

And on a side note, I've been inspired to make an E-Speed Linoone to put on my Dual Screen team. This leaves me with two questions:

1. Ideal moveset for Linoone; This far I have Belly Drum, E-Speed, Shadow Claw, and..?

2. Who the better user of Dual Screens is: it's between Uxie, Meganium, and Serperior. Pros and cons I see:

Uxie - Great defensive prowess; best typing; shut down completely by taunt (U-Turn doesn't count as attacking); Support Moves: Yawn (Only forces a blind switch, which could potentially end up hurting me), SR, T-Wave, Heal Bell,

Serperior - Not as defensive, however, has a far better support movepool (Glare, Leech Seed, Dragon Tail, Mean Look). Not entirely shut down by taunt.

(My favorite Pokemon) Meganium - "Middle Ground"; Good at setting up screens and support, however it's defense isn't as great as Uxie and it's support movepool isn't as good as Serperior's.

Opinions?
