    SS OU My OU Team

    Hey SiceXV, this is an interesting build. For the most part it mirrors most of the common defensive cores in the tier type wise, however a lot of your spreads and sets aren't really optimized to allow you to break common cores or to play around common offensive threats. My rate will be focused...

    SS OU My first gen 8 complete team

    Hey rellc_lordgodslayer76kile, for your first real team in SS OU this has a pretty solid framework. Some of the sets however do need a bit of tweaking to be fully viable and consistent, as well as help maximize the offensive and defensive synergy of your team. My rate will mainly be focused on...

    Pokémon Primarina

    The difference between how no recovery and being susceptible to hazards + status affects Choice Specs Primarina vs Assault Vest Primarina is that one focuses on longevity / being a "tank" while the other focuses on wallbreaking. Assault Vest Primarina seems to have no niche, and it frankly...

    ORAS OU My Hyper Offensive Team

    Hey JaCkson720, this build is interesting but I don't really think it can really be called hyper offense. You have Pokemon like defensive Landorus-T and Rotom-W which aren't necessarily momentum killers, but they aren't keeping up the pace of a typical hyper offense team, especially when paired...

    ORAS OU First RMT singles

    Hey Adam_bombb, this build has potential but your sets could use some improvement. My rate will focus mainly on fixing sets and patching some defensive holes in your team. First, you should run Rapid Spin > Dragon Pulse on M-Blastoise since you have Volcarona which loses half of its health to...

    ORAS OU Last Four Teams haven't gotten rated so rate this one for the love of god

    Hey Alkasesler, like Oh Captain already mentioned your team has no Ground or Water immunities / resists. These are needed on every single competitive team due to how common Ground and Water types are. If something like an Earth Plate Landorus-T or Swords Dance Garchomp was able to get in against...

    ORAS OU Completely new

    Hey thecykz, bird spam + Sand Rush Excadrill is a great core for overwhelming shared checks, but the main issue I'm seeing with your team is your weakness to Azumarill and opposing Keldeo. Both of your water resists aren't the greatest switch-ins to Water types in general, and your team also...

    ORAS OU OU Mega Medicham Offense...First Team Could Use Some Advice

    Hey Ethan Wilson, I like this build but it doesn't have a real win condition or anything to fully take advantage of M-Medicham's wallbreaking. Your team also doesn't have a Stealth Rock setter and struggles quite a bit against Serperior, Weavile, M-Diancie, Swords Dance + 3 Attacks M-Scizor...

    ORAS OU Rate my ORAS team

    Hey Kcaj, this build has potential but your sets could really use some adjustments. The biggest issue I'm seeing with your team is hazards. Your have no hazard removal when running both Dragonite and Talonflame, and you also have no Stealth Rock setter to help keep Pokemon like Charizard and...

    ORAS OU CrawBEAST

    Hey Biskit, this is a really solid build. Crawdaunt is a great Pokemon to build around since it's so underprepared for and destroys a lot of bulky builds when it finds an opening. My rate will be centered around the M-Scizor version of your team since it provides has great offensive synergy with...

    ORAS OU RMT Sustain based team

    Hey ThisGuy1337, your team itself is solid but your sets are either unviable or outclassed for the most part. My rate will focus on providing your team with better direction and fixing some moveslots, item choices, and EV spreads. First, having two Stealth Rockers on a team is really redundant...

    ORAS OU Ludiwig Van Pert (ORAS OU Rain Offense)

    Hey Bailey Bishop, this is a cool rain build, but it has a few issues that can be worked on. Your team lacks three major resists that all teams need to have, those being a Dragon resist, a Fairy resist, and a Dark resist. Due to this, Latios is almost guaranteed a kill whenever it comes in...

    ORAS OU First OU RMT.

    I did mean Slowking, yes. Slowking can act as a check to Volcanion, M-Diancie, and Tornadus-T due to its natural special bulk, none of which Slowbro can really do without a decent amount of SpDef investment. The only issue I could see with running Slowking > Slowbro on this team would be that...

    ORAS OU First OU RMT.

    Hey Para1yz3r, this team is pretty solid but there's a few general things I think your team could use some improvement on. I think running Magnezone on this build isn't really necessary since you have a Talonflame, plus your M-Diancie isn't carrying Rock Polish. I actually think you should run...
