Thick Club isn't a luck item (it doubles Marowak's attack), but otherwise you can use those. Brightpowder was unbanned a few months ago and Quick Claw has never been banned. The only item banned in OU is Soul Dew.
for specs zone, what is the ideal iv spread for hp fire? 31/30/31/30/31/30? or 31/31/30//30/31/31? it doesn't say.
Go for it, you want to speed creep Skarmory with 32 speed EVs anyway, so invest 112 EVs in speed.ah right, thank you guys. i guess i misread an iv spread given to me from a website.
here's something i am wondering though: why not run enough speed evs to outrun the specially defensive heatran set? specs thunderbolt can do min 45% assuming i used the damage calculator correctly, polishing off any fairly weakened tran.

i think its 148 to outspeed neutral 8 ev tran? i'm surprised that's not the standard for specszone though.
That would be the correct Ev spread if you hade 31 Iv in speed, but hp fire demands that you run 30 Speed Iv so you need 152 Ev in speed now, otherwise you will have a speed tie with Heatran and that isn't recommended.
What is in OU suspect test on PS atm?I tried asking in the chat but PS was heavily lagging
asbdsp I think honkos "all vs one" damage calculator from the main page might just be the best for what you're looking for. That excel spreadsheet is old and very complex.
Lokt iirc none of the "trio" dw abilities are released, besides the therians, along with just the starters and chandelure for our dw Pokemon
This might not be the best place to ask this, but is there a good guide out there for team building in OU?
Has the competitive scene of Pokemon grown large enough that the Nintendo company is aware of competitive battlers such as us? Just wondering because I want to know if they even try to make new Pokemon with competitive means in mind...
Some things like Charizard Solar Power and Zen Mode Darmanitan make me wonder...
OU Team Building - Throw together a team based on your preferences; IE, Hyper Offensive would mean many sweepers, Balanced would mean a few, Stall would mean little and lots of defensive/support, etc. This is an example of two well-built Balance teams in action, with a built-in guide
