I don't have much time on my hands right now, so I'll just do a quick rate. My understanding is that you want Feraligatr to be your primary win condition, boosted by Scolipede. In that case, several changes are recommended. Since Feraligatr has no leftovers and rather is a full-out offensive...

Thanks for the insightful comments, both of you. You both raise some really good points, so let me address them one by one. I see what you mean. I think this comes from a fundamental difference in how we use gliscor. I tend to keep it "in the wings", per se, until mid game, so I never need to...

Fangs Of War - An ORAS OU Quickstall Team ft. Gliscor Team At A Glance Introduction Hello Smogon! It’s been a while. I haven’t been active on the forums for almost a year now, so I should probably re-introduce myself. My name is BST, a Smogon member since Gen 5 but have been battling...

I guess... I mean, Ice Beam and Fusion Bolt completely massacres his supposed "counters" in fairies; Azumarill's a clean OHKO, but it might have trouble with specially defensive Togekiss if uninvested. Perhaps a LO Physically based mixed set would work? EDIT: Dragon moves are definitely...

God... Is it some sort of trend with everyone using "without further adieu" rather than "ado"? Adieu means "farewell" in French... Haha anyway, nice team. First thing, it seems to be a semi-stall team basing off Blissey and Skarmory for the defensive framework and abusing Conkeldurr's attacking...

I'm not a "long-time pokemon fan". Indeed, I've only started playing since Generation 4. Pokemon Diamond was my first ever pokemon game. That was, in my fading memory, when I was about 8. Though it was very fun at the time as well, after experiencing competitive battling and getting to decent...

Haha, I have to admit that most are actually quite random. I really should take some time to actually optimise them... Usually, I divide up EVs based on the ratio of physical vs special threats it has to deal with. I've actually grown quite fond of Zapdos. Its excellent typing, reliable...

No, I believe he means more "detailed" EVs, like for example: 252 Atk, 156 Spd, 100 Def (or something like that). Please read the RMT rules before posting.

Hey, thanks for the advice! You’ve proved your competency for stall on many occasions, and you’re probably right on most accounts. However, I would like to correct you on one account; the “emergency plans” section. I believe you have misunderstood me here. I meant that having phasers as the only...

Interesting concept. I agree that this has potential; but for constructive criticism's sake, I'll just list some major flaws of this playstyle. First of all, your team lacks offensive presence. Of course, you have good momentum going on in your VT chain, but the fact remains that none of your...

I promised I'll write this up, and (though with a long delay), I have! A Tough Competitor - Essays On The Art Of Quickstall Written by BackStreetTabby Co-Developed by Ogami Note - Skip to Section 6.2 if you wish to look at the team first. A Note on Version Release This essay is a...

Probably the best team in existence atm. Toxic Frogadier will definitely transform the metagame.
