Rid of Overheat? What kind of reccomendation is that? Unlike Heat Wave, Overheat isn't walled by Aegislash, has a bestial Base Power, and hurts everything by a lot of damage. The thing here is....no one, and i mean NO ONE uses Timid Zard Y. You won't be outspeeding anything important meanwhile losing a lot of power and making Overheat not a OHKO on Talonflame, for example.I see no point in calling excadrill a "mixed attacker" when you put absolutely zero EVs in it and running a nature that hinders special attack. Not that the nature really matters with base 50 special attack, zero EVs in special attack you'd get zero value out of it anyway and there is no point in running both earthquake and earth power. Get rid of earth power and either add Swords Dance or Rapid spin and get rid of Drill Run and replace it with Rock Slide. And as I already stated in the VGC forum get rid of overheat. There is no point in it as any (see all) Talonflames will run at least 4 hp and overheat only ko's T-flame if it isn't running hp not to mention it's not even a guaranteed KO even if it isn't running HP. 6.3% of OHKO'ing 0hp t-flame isn't worth having charizard y's Sp attack drop 2 stages
252 SpAtk Drought Mega Charizard Y Overheat vs. 0 HP/0 SpDef Flame Body Talonflame in Sun: 129 - 153 (84.3 - 100%) -- 6.3% chance to OHKO
252 SpAtk Drought Mega Charizard Y Overheat vs. 4 HP/0 SpDef Flame Body Talonflame in Sun: 130 - 153 (84.4 - 99.4%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
Seeing how as his charizard is TIMID which is +SPEED and not MODEST which is +SPECIAL ATTACK. That's the kind recommendation this is.Rid of Overheat? What kind of reccomendation is that?
Oh and this made me laugh, if "no one" uses it then why do I see plenty of people running timid then? That's a lot of "some ones" running something "no one" runsThe thing here is....no one, and i mean NO ONE uses Timid Zard Y.
People using timid Zard Y? Where? Also, what's the point on using Zard Y? Outspeeding Lando? Honestly like more than a half of Lando are scarf and the other landos uses adamant with enough speed to outspeed base 70, 80 or even 90. and even if it was jolly max speed, that means it will have less than power to OHKO other stuff. Few people runs jolly Lando-T, as well as few people uses Timid Zard YSeeing how as his charizard is TIMID which is +SPEED and not MODEST which is +SPECIAL ATTACK.

Jesus fucking christ get the stick out of your ass, dick. I just stated what I stated that max sp attack timid charizard-y doesn't ko what he talked about wanting to ko. Then your dickwaded ass comes in and decides to be condescending towards me because I said something that you for some stupid fucking reason take personal offense to. Do you even know how to criticize without being a fucking dick?People using timid Zard Y? Where? Also, what's the point on using Zard Y? Outspeeding Lando?

Imo for resources, check http://3ds.pokemon-gl.com/battle/oras/#double . As you'll see, 60% of the Zard are MODEST and a 30% of the Zard are TIMID. Also, you'll notice how the 76% of Lando-T are ADAMANT meanwhile a 18.9% of them are JOLLY. As i said, no point on using Timid Zard Y. Do you even VGC bro?
Ofc i do. Instead of just replying to the things that you found weird about my first post, did you even bother to check all the arguments about why i did reccomend modest>timid and to keep overheat? If you did, you should know the reasons why i answered your second post like i did. I did it only because using timid zard y really has no point. I also apologize if i was too rude and/or mean. But let's be honest and agree to the fact that there's no reason to use timid zard y and no reason to not use overheat on the zard y of this team (focus blast could be used over overheat if the team didn't have a heatran answer, and it has machamp)Jesus fucking christ get the stick out of your ass, dick.

I didn't reply to that because it was a sound argument and didn't think it would be pointless to argue about it.Ofc i do.

Yeah I'm sure you didn't mean to do it.I also apologize if i was too rude and/or mean.
thanks for trolling....if you don't know doubles and vgc why bother posting?
I play enough doubles (which, by the way, is different than vgc and you should specify which one you're playing with the team although I assume it's vgc) to know incorrect sets, but not enough to suggest actual replacements. I like how out of all the things I say, such as AV Machamp with wide guard, that's the one thing you notice.thanks for trolling....if you don't know doubles and vgc why bother posting?
Nobody asked you to be rude to someone who is new to the competitive scene of Pokemon.I play enough doubles (which, by the way, is different than vgc and you should specify which one you're playing with the team although I assume it's vgc) to know incorrect sets, but not enough to suggest actual replacements.

I still stand by this entire rate. It fixes your sets and also addresses the issue of you having not played with the team beforehand (otherwise you would know that the item assault vest prevents the use of wide guard and Emboar doesn't even get shell armor). So here you've already broken the RMT rules or simply never noticed that it wasn't working, which is unlikely if you play with the team for any length of time.Hey kantotrainer90. It's cool that you want to post two teams and get more feedback for two metas. That being said, both teams have far too many issues to perform competently, even to the point where you have illegal moves and abilities. Before posting an rmt, you should play with the team first and make sure that it's at least competent, even if it needs help.
The problem with the first team is, there isn't a "Unova team" tier. It's just a team of Unova mons that you like using, but you can't rate it because nobody plays mono Unova. It's just not a competitive tier, and there's no point in putting one in an rmt because I can't say "your team has a Talonflame/Keldeo/whatever weakness" because I don't know what threats to prepare for. If you really need some pointers, then I can at least fix the sets.
Emboar doesn't get shell armor, put blaze on and then reckless when that gets released. Flame charge should be replaced with sucker punch as strong CB priority is much more useful than avoiding blitz recoil. Also, the move is "Superpower" not super powers. Cofagrigus should have HP Fighting over disable because disable is basically worthless and leaves you walked by normal types, and it should also be carrying 0 speed IVs to be as slow (fast) as possible in trick room (as should emboar). Protect should be swapped for energy ball on galvantula, and remove earth power and drill run on excadrill for rock slide and rapid spin. Run u-turn over earth power on scarf Hydreigon.
Better sets or not, your team makes no sense. You have a trick room setter and one abuser on the same team as a suicide sticky web lead and spinblocker, which is totally counterproductive. Nothing can take hits reliably as Cofagrigus only has max hp and no recovery and AV tornadus isn't therian form with regenerator. There isn't a single type that can't just smash its way through your team, but it doesn't even have good offensive synergy with a serious weakness to bulky waters. I get that you want to have a Unova team, but there's no point to have one and still try to make it seriously competitive, especially with sets like triple ground stab excadrill. I can't seriously improve the team without having non-Unova mons (like using entei over emboar) and totally changing the structure, it's just not good enough to be rated.
I don't know enough about doubles to fully rate the team, but I see a lot of amateur mistakes here too, such as running wide guard on an AV mon (you can't use it, have you played with the team before?), timid Zard y, mono attacking Aegislash, bulky cm alakazam, speedy Clefable, and no heat wave on Zard. I'd seriously reccommend learning the meta more before posting an rmt, let alone two.
Clearly I'm not trolling, as I indicated in my response.thanks for trolling....if you don't know doubles and vgc why bother posting?
VGC and doubles are two different things, hence my confusion. VGC has item clause and you can only bring four mons, in doubles you bring six. VGC is Nintendo official, Doubles is smogon. To learn more about this, go here: http://www.smogon.com/smog/issue30/smogdoubles_vs_vgc. I believe the team is for vgc because of the tag, but in your original thread you say that it's a "Doubles Team-Unova", hence my confusion at you using the two formats interchangeably. Also, when you say new, does that take into account your 200+ posts? That's not exactly new.Nobody asked you to be rude to someone who is new to the competitive scene of Pokemon.
It's pretty straight forward this is for vgc doubles and it's in my first sentence and in the title thread.
My rate hasn't broken any rules. The sixth rate on this thread starts with "Jesus fucking christ get the stick out of your ass, dick" yet you attack the one that actually gives advice?I will also refer you to the rules:
http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/how-to-rate.3490985/
Again, you have a rate that's just one guy arguing with another and yet my post is the issue when it follows every rule and gives advice. Seems legit.Nobody asked you to be rude to someone who is new to the competitive scene of Pokemon.
When you can post like suggested by Smogon rules, then I will listen to you again.
Thank you for this link. I don't see how it's relevant, but thanks I guess? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯I'd also suggest you take a look at this:

Hi, thank you!Unova team
I have tested the Unova team and things like saying Shell Armor on Emboar was a typo. I copied and pasted my last team and I didn't finish the getting rid of Samurott's info.....
BW one, or the B2W2 one?i might widen the all-unova team update to any pokemon from the unova dex.
