Great team. Kinda was curious when you set all of the records on the PO server why you didn't come over and play here. Anyways, like I saw with Stone Cold's Reflections, this team is all over the ladder, like I play it every other match. One thing for the Deoxys spread is to try to put the Speed EVs into defense as long as the speed is at 449, which will let it outpace Scarf Rotom-W. Congrats on #1!
yea man this shit is all over the ladder. Deoxys-S set has been updated and it provides more support than before.
SuperMegaUltra said:I get E-speed on Nite, I even get it with DD. But Mamoswine isn't seeing much play these days, as well as any other Ice sharders. I get that it's a good insurance to have on the team. but why not stick waterfall on him instead? It'll give you extra cover against the likes of Heatran so unless there's another huge spike in Mamos or (god forbid) Weaviles, Waterfall is the better option. Just a thought really, but your team is really solid. It does what it does, quick hazards, constant beatdown, Gengar as a fantastic spinblocker and Terrakion and Nite cleaning up!
Extremespeed is a must on Dragonite, it serves many roles, as a revenger, sweeper and etc. It helps a lot while facing sun teams and shit. Overall thanks for the rate.

This team's success is because of your skill as a battler and NOT the team itself. It has some serious exploitable flaws. For starters, my gripe about this gen is weather. Your team is absolutely ass massacred by sun / chlorophyll, namely Venusuar, who 6-0s your team easily and not a soul on earth can do anything to stop it. He will come in and kill soemething, and you are forced to revenge with Scizor, who is easy for sun to switch into as every fire pokemon in their mother can switch into Scizor. I honestly have no idea how your team stands a prayer against sun offense (in the hands of a good player).
Also, your team doesn't appreciate starmie too much. Yeah, rotom can pressure it, but Starmie rips through everything else and will at least spin deoxys-S's hazards away. You lay hazards, you think your doing shit with 2 layers of spikes and SR, starmie comes in and you have to to switch to Gengar who just gets OHKOed by Hydro Pump.
Rain offense... I don't know how you beat that either. Specs Gastrodon takes full advantage of Rotom-W sucking it up and picks apart your team one by one. And with Stealth Rock down, Dragonite fails horribly as a Water resist. Sharpedo looks a like a dickface.. speed boosting on your mons to hell and back. Luckily Rain and Sun offense is becoming rarer, because I see instant loss against them.
Hello, I appreciate your rate but if you don't actually know how to play the game why play it then? You obviously sounds like you have no clue how HO works. Sun is a threat but not a major issue. Starmie is annoying but can be taken down if played smart. Tbh I've never had issues with Rain Offense. If you would like to see any of the replays of my matches, PM me and I'll send them to you.
Thepain said:This isnt really a rate, more of me explaining how shocked I am, ( in a good way :') ) mainly for the fact that this team is rediculously similar to one of my old ones, it has the exact same pokes with a few small adjustments in movesets ( I ran CB Scizor and Superpower > Magic Coat + Sash > Rocky helmet + Max Speed and Atk on deoxys-S ) and I never came anything close to #1 with it, and I doubt those changes would have affected that, so congratulations on your success ( I guess this kinda backs up RaikouLovers point too I suppose ), but yeah, good look in the future and I look forward to seeing future ammendments to this team.
Thanks for the rate Thepain.
Stunt said:I've played this team more than once, and I must say it is one of the better offense teams out there.
Deoxys-S + Spinblocker has always been a favorite of mines, and your team executes it to the fullest. The type variety and coverage on this team is quite impressive and weaknesses are rather minor.
Look forward to playing you again-
yea bro I do remember playing your annoying yet effective Hail Stall, thanks for the rate.
Mforz said:Gyara eats this team alive without hopes at jolly +1 with rocks,just saying.It's faster than Rotom cause your set is modest,and nothing in this team can stop it.
Otherwise,awesome team.I really like your deoxys set and its been working most times,magic coat!
Gyarados can't touch this team. You've to play smart in order to beat that big bitch. Tbh it hasn't been a big threat to me so far, so I won't worry about it.
