Alright this is my TR team for the OU tier. After making several TR teams I came to the conclusion that this might be the best combination of pokes you could put on a TR team and do well with, without spamming LOTran and LONite, because TR is supposed to be about using slow things, not meh things that you just want to use but don't have the balls to use without TR.
(DaFuckAmI?) Hypno@Leftovers
Nature: Quiet
Ability: Insomnia
EVs :252 HP/ 252 Sp Att/ 6 Sp Def
Moves:
-Psychic
-HP Fire
-Trick Room
-Nasty Plot
This guy is the most amazing TR lead I have ever used in my life. No one expects a lead Hypno and most people don’t even know what Hypno does. I usually set up TR first turn and from there it depends on what the opponent does and what they have out. If I manage to set NP up and TR, it’s a gg or half of their team demolished. This thing also works as a nice sleep absorber if Ursaring hasn’t been out yet or get’s Knocked Off on the switch. This is the first member to set up TR, also. EV’s are for bulkiness and to make it hit like a Jew when you steal his penny.
(RadioHead) Dusknoir@Leftovers
Nature: Sassy
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 252 HP/ 252 Sp Def/ 6 Def
Moves:
-Seismic Toss
-WoW
-Trick Room
-Pain Split
“Dis guy iz de boolky poke” As the fail Xenon would say. This guy takes most special hits like a sexy mofo and sets up TR for the team as the second member that does so. His only recovery besides Rest is Pain Split so I had to go with that. WoW is for those nasty things that think they can take me with a physical move. Seismic Toss is for obvious damage. EV’s are for obvious bulkiness as this thing doesn’t need any EV’s to do damage.
(SpclEdKid) Slowbro@Leftovers
Nature: Relaxed
Ability: Own Tempo
EVs: 252 HP/ 252 Def/ 6 Sp Att
Moves:
-Surf
-HP Elec
-Trick Room
-Slack Off
This idiot is one of the best physical walls I have ever used. F*ck Skarm this thing is a tank. It’s the third and final member of this team that sets up TR. Surf is for STAB and Slack Off is for the obvious recovery move that every wall should have. HP Elec allows me to counter Gayra which otherwise would pretty much rape my team. This (BAN ME PLEASE) also counters Machamp which is a bit of a bother for the team but Slowbro tells it tits or gtfo. EV’s are for maximum bulkiness and for to compensate for HP Elec only allowing me to have 30 Sp Att IVs.
(PedoBear) Ursaring@Flame Orb
Nature: Brave
Ability: Guts
EVs: 252 HP/ 252 Att / 6 Def
Moves:
-Façade
-EQ
-Fire Punch
-Crunch
Oh my fucking Christ, when this guy gets burnt, it steals your lunch money, breaks your TV, and sleeps with your wife, it’s that beastly. Able to OHKO almost all of OU is amazing, if you ask me. Façade is there for a base 210 shotgun to rip holes in teams, while the other 3 moves are to cover anything that resists/is immune to Façade. Fire Punch is only there for Skarm, which it 2HKO’s, and Zong, which is also 2HKO’s. I decided to keep CC off the set, because I want you to tell me a normal type that isn’t OHKO’d by Façade. EV’s are to go apesh*t on teams and have some bulkiness. This thing basically has a CB on while burnt and the ability to change between moves.
(GGUniverse) Aggron@Choice Band
Nature: Brave
Ability: Rock Head
EVs: 252 HP/ 252 Att/ 6 Def
Moves:
-Head Smash
-EQ
-Aqua Tail
-Ice Punch
The NN fits the poke, the universe has been GG’d. The only thing in OU that isn’t able to be 2HKO’d or OHKO’d by Head Smash is Jirachi and Swampert. Aqua Tail is for those bulky ground pokes that no one likes. Like Ursaring this guy has a one move moveset with the other stuff supporting it in terms of resistances. Head Smash is a base 225 move with no drawbacks thanks to Rock Head. EV’s are for maximum rape and a bit of bulkiness, since TR doesn’t need speed to sweep. I consider Ursaring+Aggron the Scizor+Lucario of TR. One rapes and weakens the counter and then the other comes in and rapes as much as Microsoft Word is telling me how many words I have misspelled while typing this, a bunch.
(SaladMence) Salamence@Choice Scarf
Nature: Naughty
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 252 Att/ 80 Sp Att/ 176 Spe
Moves:
-Outrage
-Draco Meteor
-EQ
-Fire Blast
Every TR team needs something fast on it to make sure if I don’t have TR up I’m not fucked. This thing packs a huge surprise value much like the rest of this team. EVs are Standard for a Scarf Set and this is my primary answer to Latias if TR isn’t up, as without this Latias can lol at my entire team. Moveset is for coverage and and attempt to sweep without that +1 Attack that is so sought after for Mence, but this guy usually picks the enemy off if Ursaring and Aggron haven’t steamrolled them all. So yeah, rawr.
Rate away.
