It's the right time of year, no?
I felt sorry for the poor, overgrown turkey dressed in that weird Santa Suit. Unfortunately, it's typing (4 times weak to SR) and bad stats have relegated it to the UU/Tier 11 environment. Still, it could have some potential.

Delibird@C-Band
Adamant/Brave 252 Attack/ 252 Speed/HP /4 HP/Defense
Hustle
Ice Shard
Focus Punch
Filler

The set in slashes is for TR.
Hustle+CB should deal some damage. It should be able to counter the most Dragons and stuff, seeing as they all don't have peed Priority moves. It works best with ScarfChomp. Still, the opponent could switch so I packed FP. Aerial Ace ignores Hustles drop in Acc.

Of course, this is only expirimental.
 
This set doesn't offer anything new. Omega's 'OU Bounty Hunter' set is probably the most useful way of using a Delibird. I'm no authority, or anything, but you'll probably want to include more information on movesets, damage calculations, etc before posting a topic like this.
 
This is basically the same set as the one in the analysis except that it has brick break so that it can OHKO tyranitar.

I've used delibird in my NU team and I have to say hustle gets annoying. Out of all the games I've played against OU teams, ice shard has never hit once against a garchomp that's locked into outrage. Apparently if it does hit it's an OHKO but it has never hit for me lol. Most of the time sandstorm wasn't even in effect. With sandveil, there's pretty much no hope of hitting it.
 
Delibird's stats are a bit too low for it to work effectively even in uu... its stats are so low, they are comparable to oddish:

as for the last move, try fly or arial ace.

oddish: 45/50/55/75/65/30
delibird:45/55/45/65/45/75
 
LOL, that is the suckage. Man, you could do more with Gloom (your right seds) in OU than with this thing... at least it's movepool is OK, aside from the fact that it only learns present and you would have to be stoned to waste TMs on it.
 
It's not as bad a you guys make it out to be. 75 base speed is actually workable and is average. Hustle makes its attack much higher than it seems just by looking at its base stats. Essentially with choice band it's an automatic +2 stages in attack. If it's ice shard can OHKO garchomp and its brick break can OHKO tyranitar, its attack is comparable to stuff like weavile.

Anyway, oddish is a 1st stage evo. Delibird is too. We're gonna see the ownage when it evolves next gen.
 
Uhhhh, considering it has 229 Max attack, even hustle + choice band is only going to bring it up to 458 attack. Considering plenty of pokemon can reach a number close to this without a trait boost AND an item boost, its pretty crappy.

Also, Hustle lowers the accuracy of all of your moves to 80%. Face it folks, Delibird is another crappy Johto poke that desperately needs an evolution -_-
 
I'm not saying it's ownage OU material or anything. I just wouldn't go so far as to compare it to oddish because delibird is actually usable. The OU bounty hunter set especially is pretty cool being able to dispatch some big OU threats in 1 hit.

458 is pretty damn good, certainly more than anything oddish can get and a lot more than some OU pokemon I might add. And you could consider the 80% accuracy as something like every pokemon you attack having sandveil. You still hit most of the time.

I said the accuracy can get annoying and it's true but delibird certainly isn't totally useless.

Delibrid really needs an evolution.
