I've won 7/7 games so far with the team, but I'm finding the lack of grass moves gives you a hard time dealing with Rotom-W and Quagsire. You may want to add those to your threat list. Also not having a fairy move is a bit odd, but it's just forcing me to play better.

Thanks for taking the time to rate my team. I'll have to try your changes, and then update my op when I am feeling less lazy. I do have some questions/concerns I guess. So a specially defensive will o wisp set on ZardX sounds interesting to me. If you are referring to the bulky will o wisp set...

First off, I'd like to thank you for taking the time to actually read the post, and for replying. I completely agree with the swap to Zard X. I was too tired to post "closing thoughts/concerns" last night, but one of the things bugging me was how little zard did for me. He was a really good idea...

Hey there everyone, I'm Æthereal and this is my new team. It is loosely named after dark souls since some of the mons remind me of dark souls. I've had success on the ladder peaking somewhere in the low 1500's, making this my most successful team (that I've built.) I'm hoping with your help, we...

I made a new team I'm rather fond of, but I have a glaring weakness to Zard Y in the sun (Fire moves drop Metagross,Magnezone,Weavile./Solar Beam crushes keldeo, and lando-t isn't a fan either./Dragon Pulse stops my latias.) I also share a similar weakness to heatran, who stops everything short...

quick edit: for your clefable ev's on this page, it just says "EVs: 252 HP / 252 ?????/ 4 SpD" Looking at the pastebin, that should be 252 Def instead of a blank. also on the pastebin clefable has soft-boiled listed twice: Clefable @ Leftovers Ability: Unaware EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpA...

Opinion is opinion, I never said good walls, I said your favorite. Also, I know Rotom isn't a wall per say, but his incredible bulk does allow him to wall off certain mons. Also, feel free to be an asshole, this is the internet. Also, ik Treevenant is garbage, but I really like him. I could...

I didn't, and I have no idea where to post something like this, I figured ti fell under the category of competitive discussion. The ORAS Core thread seemed to be something of a similar vein, so I figured this was okay. If not, I'd appreciate if someone could tell me the appropriate place to post...

Everytime I go to make a team, I sort of struggle with what to do in terms of walls. I get tired of using the same Defensive Rotom-W, or Specially Defensive Sylveon/Clefable. Most balanced teams use 1-2 of them, and I feel like lately, I haven't seen much variety. So what I'm looking to do here...

Hello everyone, I want to start off this post with a diclaimer: I did not make this team. A friend of mine met someone on Showdown kind enough to build a team around his favorite pokemon, Mega Aerodactyl. So shoutout to user Mistaken for building this team for him. Even though I didn't build it...

Have you considered swapping Rotom-W for something like Gothitelle or Chandleure. Chandleure with this moveset would function as great revenge killer, and help you deal with the ferrothorn issue, which should free up some moves on your other mons: Chandelure @ Choice Scarf Ability: Flash Fire /...

While I'm here I am just going to say I believe Exploud ranked at C+ He may not be that overused, but when I see him, I feel he is in competition with some other popular special sweepers. For starters, Boomburst is a disgustingly powerful STAB, almost as strong as Hyper Beam, but with no...

Okay guys, let's talk Mega Absol. Absol has been by far my favorite Pokemon since Gen 3, and has remained since because he is just so cool. In this edition, I saw he got a shiny new Mega Evolution, thrusting him into the realm of OU Viability. Absol always had a fantastic attack stat, but his...

My vote goes to finncent1, he clearly thought long and hard about the core, and what issues he would be facing by identifying the top threats in OU. Plus it's cool to see some lesser used Pokemon in OU.

Eviolite Chansey is nice, but I tend to prefer Blissey. They are basically the same thing, and you don't have to worry about all of the knockoff users running around in OU. No reason to make the change if you aren't having an issue.
