  • Yo guys you have gotta try out Scovillan Sun that I sent that man is too wavy. I have gotten way too much mileage off with him to not recommend it. That team does not even have the PZ team problem that happened.

    Here's some calcs to show how nuclear this mon Scovillan is -

    252 SpA Life Orb Tera Fire Scovillain Overheat vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Dragapult in Sun: 308-363 (97.1 - 114.5%) -- 81.3% chance to OHKO

    +2 252 SpA Life Orb Scovillain Overheat vs. 252 HP / 240+ SpD Slowking-Galar in Sun: 497-585 (126.1 - 148.4%) -- guaranteed OHKO

    +2 252 SpA Life Orb Scovillain Overheat vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Iron Moth in Sun: 335-394 (111.2 - 130.8%) -- guaranteed OHKO

    +2 252 SpA Life Orb Scovillain Overheat vs. 248 HP / 0 SpD Moltres in Sun: 415-489 (108.3 - 127.6%) -- guaranteed OHKO

    +2 252 SpA Life Orb Scovillain Overheat vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Raging Bolt in Sun: 400-472 (102.3 - 120.7%) -- guaranteed OHKO

    252 SpA Life Orb Tera Fire Scovillain Overheat vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Multiscale Dragonite in Sun: 122-143 (37.7 - 44.2%) -- guaranteed 3HKO

    252 SpA Life Orb Tera Fire Scovillain Overheat vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Dragonite in Sun: 243-286 (75.2 - 88.5%) -- guaranteed 2HKO


    Thats the thing that makes him good. He has too much immediate power and overwhelming setup option. One thing to note is that Tera Fire Flame + Overheat is stronger than +2 Non Tera Overheat so you can replicate all of above calcs even without setup. Tera Fire +2 Overheat Calcs are too insane but aren't even required but here's a funny one -

    +2 252 SpA Life Orb Tera Fire Scovillain Overheat vs. +1 0 HP / 4 SpD Tera Water Ogerpon-Wellspring-Tera in Sun: 334-394 (110.9 - 130.8%) -- guaranteed OHKO

    These are all the mons in OU that you could have tried to check Scovillan with, it basically can overpower them all. We have good answer to all priority as Scovillan is made out of paper.

    You get this guy in, click attacks and profit. I am surprised people call him so bad. FSG literally called him the worst fire type of Gen 9 and that might be true in a vaccum but he nit bad at all. He is too strong for that. And all this with Speed equal to Booster Val throughout the game.

    +2 252 SpA Life Orb Tera Fire Scovillain Overheat vs. 4 HP / 252+ SpD Blissey in Sun: 564-665 (86.5 - 101.9%) -- 12.5% chance to OHKO

    I was not aware of this calc myself but this is legitimate insanity. Blissey could be OHKOes is nuts even if the chance is so small.
    Yo, Blunder! Check out this insane Nat Dex team showcasing SD Bug Z Lokix + Mixed AoA Mega Sceptile! At +2, Z-First Impression for Lokix OHKOes Great Tusk after Knock Off chip! Incredibly underrated threat! And Sceptile has a superb Speed tier and its Mixed AoA set hits all of the metagame for relevant chip or straight OHKOes. Magnezone rounds out the offensive core by trapping Ferrothorn for Sceptile and the likes of Melmetal for Lokix! The defensive backbone of the team is also incredibly solid, with a nice core of Gliscor/Fini/Moltres! Hope you give it a try! Brazil loves you! :)

    Wassup Blunder,

    Can't wait till to see you guys at the next next regional, still relatively new to Smogon and the Agency but your vids with Aim, CTC, sama , suave and others got me into competitive. So I'm still climbing the ladder and it's annoying but it's fun too. I've been really liking Ursaluna as of late and trick room is cool and all but I've been experimenting with two sets: Specially Bulky Ursa and Grassy Terrain. The former is reminiscent of the set that got him banned from UU and inspired by Pinkacross as well. I added some grassy support with Rilla and with Ursa bulk it's kinda like Bax with it not caring about status/ice body recovery. With Grassy terrain and the leftovers your gaining a lot of health back. Being able the stomach hits from Raging bolt, Waking Wake, Ghold and more with your special bulk. And Supporting you you have double ghost spin blockers w/ Pualt and Ghold (who also appreciates the grassy terrain) And with a G-Weeze for hazard control plus spreading burn
    and a Assault Vest Zama Because with no SpD investment it reaches a respectable 400 SpD so eating hits from Val and Glowing if worst comes to worst. I've been laddering and I'm not skilled enough to see any major checks yet but you can give me feedback with that as well.

    Team:
    https://pokepast.es/574b4d85a13dfdb4

    Okay, Now for the More Aggro Version:

    This Team features the same Rilla and Ursa core but More offensive in nature, with Rilla being classic banded and Ursa with flame orb. The cool synergy is that grassy terrain cancels out flame orb burn and with one trailblaze your outrunning and threatening to O.K a lot of threats you would be in Trick room but now normally such as Ghold, Tusk(Non defensive), H-Sammurot, Kyurem, lando and literally anything below 327 speed. I opted for terra grass for that little extra breaking power when wanting another Trailblaze for Mola but tera normal is also standard for pure muscle. And something to also remember is your still an Ursa with excellent bulk. G-Weezing sees a return because he appreciates the ground dampening effect of grassy terrain and the extra passive recovery. More standard we have a Hawlucha as a wincon again plenty of encore-able threats, pretty stander Hawlucha things. AV Prima appreciates the Tspike absorption from G-Weeze but also the passive recovery with terrain and as with Zama a naturally high SpD meaning we don't need to invest to reach 400 meaning we have More breaking power with our moon blast and liquid voice Psychic noises. And our last slot is a Expert belt Darkrai used to pick things off and speed control, you could opt for boots but in my testing Rai has been falling short of K.Os so I opted for the belt bc the Ice Dark and Poison coverage is superb.

    All in all this is my first write up on anything really Pokemon Related I've always been into games that allow you to optimize and competitive Pokemon is scratching that itch atm and I hope to get better and be more a part of the community.

    Micheal Scovillan Sun. I think this mon is super underrated, how can this be ZU? His stats might be too low but a Fire type Chlorophyll guy is too strong regardless! I feel the issue people face with him is that either they run Specs and get walled by Garga, Mola, Gliscor, or they run Growth and get killed instantly with his low def.

    I try to meet in the middle and run Life Orb Growth Overheat Tera Fire Scovillan. This way he can always have the right approach to take depending on the opps team!
    Having watched your balanced hackmons video, I firmly believe you haven't suffered enough on the ladder to have claimed the honor of having the true balanced-hackmons-laddering-experience™. Hence, I am granting you access to this randomized NFE team that you clearly didn't ask for in hopes of rectifying this dreadful conundrum: https://pokepast.es/123fc1a98835d07d. (The team did get to the top 500 on the ladder and won 75% of its games, so it is possible to win using it).

    The full RMT is here for further details on the team: https://www.smogon.com/forums/threa...rated-not-fully-evolved-pokémon-only.3728588/ .

    Ghost Serp Webs. I have been liking Ghost on Serp because it's great into either one of Corvi Or Slowking G. I was trying it out on a Para spam team but ended up liking it so much that made a real team with it. You are walled by Gambit but team has 4 guys that beat Gambit so it doesn't come up much.
    Wassup Blunder,
    You might remember me from making that trick room cb araquanid team you used in a vid. I got a couple unique teams that I'm using to ladder right now that you might find interesting (currently at 1960 so high ladder tested + top 25)
    First one is a snow team that I think matches up great into the current state of OU and feels really strong into just about anything short of hard stall. The general game plan is to use belly drum cetitan and specs kyu to punch a big enough hole for zama to clean up. Here's the paste:
    https://pokepast.es/68ef39b163f4d0e8
    And here's a replay or two
    One of them is a cetitan sweep in the 1900s bc it matches up so well into common teams
    https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9ou-2382954309-wnol14489xecy98350hgi4uyygve4o9pw
    https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9ou-2382294938-wvhkyn4ng46srn7o2vjkq337fsgg2pspw

    The other team I have is a really unique trick room team with diancie and arboliva as the main offensive engines. This team is a little more inconsistent, but I still have found high ladder success when using it alternating with the hail team. Here's the paste:
    https://pokepast.es/a082ba65eb9d077d
    It's got a couple iffy matchups, like it is pretty kyurem weak but that's why bronzong is there. Matches up best into balance teams and can struggle with HO. Diancie though is a really potent sweeper somehow. Anyways here's a couple replays.
    Bronzong destroying stall:
    https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/...I_z1xIWj4dm4pn7g4G_aem_jxDIugutrhCzOSvDs_kghQ

    And bronzong cleaning up under trick room even after I played horrible.

    https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9ou-2382939314-p4wc8edlknud7a641l9lkyk1yiq7cuqpw

    Anyways thanks for your time and hope these teams catch your eye !
    https://pokepast.es/fc1a4806ada1062a

    Now, it's Kyurem's turn for DropaDraco. I ran Boots because with Blizzard and Tera Ice, you don't even need Specs and boots gives you so many opportunities to fire off attacks, not to mention his great bulk stays intact especially off the Snow boost. I run the Blim core but change up the sets to make it more active. Boots Zama is there for Future Signt abuse and Speed control.

    Hydreigon this time for DropaDraco! I have been shilling this Eject Pack Rocks set since the BL Knights but you guys always end up using the Sub Nasty Plot. It's about time you try this. In this heavy BO metagame this much more proactive set definitely has merit.
    Hey Blundino, Houndoom is my favorite mon and I figured it might have some trading potential in OU with Counter and Destiny Bond, and I ended up making this and won a decent amount in the mid 1700's reaching a high of 1780 beating a top 100 player.
    https://pokepast.es/96ede0a10f77b426
    Essentialy Houndoom can take 1 or even 2 mons with him to open up endgames from Val or Zama, with Tusk spin support (team is pretty hazard weak) Oger as a breaker and Latios because idk. Doom hits 317 speed and can destiny bond greedy tusks trying to rapid spin after a counter as well as other slower mons. Tera ghost is for E-speed Dnite BUT, tera dark has a 75% chance to kill Pult and as seen on focus blast Val I love gambling. (sets and teras could prob be tweaked)
    Replays
    https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9ou-2382247156-lqq9e2fy6xb4ru6892u5lwqm18n57oqpw (Doom would've got 2 at end with bond if no hax)
    https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9ou-2381963665-5dp7ctsil88bq0qvxxm000lcaqxn340pw?p2
    https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9ou-2381969849-k8eqqhn3yqy1o4y65lnp82icnetleo4pw?p2 (top 100)
    https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9ou-2381960642-yv0s4wawl4rsk00y47i4t79nxi6rubepw

    My main floats around 1800s so I think I'm a decent player but I'm an ass builder generally. This is the first try of this team and I think a better player could prob consistently chill in 1800s with it.
    https://pokepast.es/e0978c4df1d4b53d

    This time I got the Dracomenace himself, Salamence in celebration of Drop a Draco. Now, this guy is on nobody's radar but he ha some good things over Dnite. intimidate is really nice, esp into Oger. He outspeeds Tusk, Lando T etc.

    I run a Draco EQ Fire Blast set. This set is only really walled by Clef. It punishes Slowking G structures because uninvested EQ does a clean 55%. Val and Enam are 2HKOed by Fire Blast. Even Mola and Glis are heavily pressured because Draco is too strong. I really like this set because it is surprisingly effective.

    tier shift hail team, got top 100 on ts ladder with it (which tbh isnt impressive)
    basically the strat is to use avalugg/glastrier to blanket check stuff and sweep with minior the second they misplay (shields down can't be statused and theres sooo much status in this tier)
