    On Starmie, I'd rather have Surf than Hydro Pump; it's more reliable. Grass Knot is there to take out Swamperts, without having to rely on Hydro Pump. I don't want to put on Trick or Psychic because then I won't have anything to hit Swamperts.

    I have a pretty good idea. Let me see what you think. This could be my Special Wall: Togekiss @ Leftovers Nature: Timid or Calm (?) Ability: Serene Grace - Wish - Encore - Air Slash - Thunder Wave It gives me another ground immunity (like Gyarados). It gives me a Flying move to hit...
  3. First Competitive OU Team...Critiques are welcome!

    Bump My main concerns come from my latest post (my team is updated too). Should I replace Gyarados with Dusknoir? Do I need a Special Wall on my team? Is Bulky Gyarados a good fit?
  4. Alright, thanks. It's between the Stall-breaker set and that set. I've pondered both for a long...

    Alright, thanks. It's between the Stall-breaker set and that set. I've pondered both for a long time. I guess I'll just have to make that decision on my own. Thanks for the help, again.

    Ginganinja, you sound wise, and I like that, haha. I did my edit for you. Making Gliscor a Stall-breaker sounds great. Dusknoir really isn't a Stall-breaker?! Thanks for enlightening me. Gyarados sounds appealling, as it offers me another Ground immunity. I always thought it was a good rule of...

    Hey again, I'm pretty sure you messaged me, but somehow I screwed it up. Sorry. I read it though, and it dealt with me RMTing your team. I'm not trying to play you in anyway, but I, in all honesty and truth, believe that I won't be able to help you in anyway. I'm so new to the competitive...

    Yes, Ginganinja, your rate was on the correct Pokemon. I will edit my team soon; I'm new to Smogon so cut me some slack. I like Gliscor as a Stall-breaker. I'll strongly consider using him as that. But, if I use Gyrados, I won't have a decent Special Wall, which I desperately need. Dusknoir can...

    Jynx KB, I was reading your wonderful post, and all the while I was hitting myself in the head. I forgot to tell you that I've made some revisions! I feel so bad for seeing you take the time to give such a nice rate all the while it seems to be of no use. And, seeing that you realized this at...

    Hey Jynx KB, I don't know if I'm supposed to do this because I'm new to Smogon, but let's give it a try. I looked at Joe_Crow's OU RMT thread, and the way you helped him solve his problems was really great. I don't know if you'll check this at all, but I'm hoping that you could take a good...

    Bump...looking for some help on my latest post.
  11. First Competitive OU Team...Critiques are welcome!

    Well, thanks for the continued comments, and I continue to mess around with my team. The MixPert Lead, although it's used quite a lot, sounds good because I love the idea of having a Bulky Pokemon that can still hit hard. So, let's put it in the books - Swampert has now become my Lead with...
  12. First Competitive OU Team...Critiques are welcome!

    I've been looking around at other people's teams, and I've just been messing around with my own. This is what I come up with (along with my previous analysis): I could turn my Starmie into a Choice Scarfer and get rid of Thunder Wave on him. I could keep Magnezone, except make him the more...
  13. First Competitive OU Team...Critiques are welcome!

    Well, first of all, thanks for all of your responses. Trust me, I read each and everyone thoroughly. Danmantincan, I hope you'll come back to help fix my team even more. I'd appreciate it a lot. Metagross: I will certainly use a Life Orb on my Metagross. I like the idea of Agiligross, so I...
  14. First Competitive OU Team...Critiques are welcome!

    Introduction: Well, I've been playing the Pokemon games virtually my whole life, and, likewise for most of you, the Elite Four has just become more boring than watching grass grow. So, I decided to introduce myself to competitive battling by "building" my own competitive team. Be forewarned...
