Thanks CTC for the suggestions. I'm the guy that requested the Azu/ZardX/Ferro core, and I got some questions for the modifications of the team posted above, mostly to further improve my understanding and the teambuilding process. Since the user for which you built this team specifically...

One thing I feel hasn't been stressed enough is TTars ability to beat common pokes that would otherwise wall or beat it. Both Ferrothorn and Gliscor are able to 2HKO it while the standard physical TTar can't do jack shit in return, but it 2HKO's Ferro with Flamethrower/Fire Blast and OHKO's...

I hope I can take this as an opportunity to build a team around the Zard X / Ferrothorn / Azumarill core that I'd love to build around but I've never really gotten around to anything that nice... Now my suggestions are: Charizard @ CharizarditeX 248 HP / 140 SDef / 120 Spd Careful Blaze...

Hey man, we're playing in mini tour. I'm in GMT+1 and I'm pretty much free until the weekend, so whatever works for you.

Charizard is probably the one base 100 that doesn't outspeed Lando because it usually runs Adamant and the max ATK max Speed spread has gotten kinda rare... But still, your point remains. Also, a 2HKO with Focus Blast is a very shaky 2HKO to give up Speed for.

Yeah of course Thundurus is a better Twave user because it's got Prankster. The two aren't really comparable though because they fill different roles and are usually used on different teams. If you got both you don't need Twave on Ferro but it's generally still a good option to cripple fast...

Yeah that's one of Ferro's more common sets. Depending on whether you use Gyro Ball a lot, it can be replaced by Thunder Wave or Stealth Rock to fill different roles.

So... I've been trying to build a team around my CharX/Ferrothorn/Azumarill core, and I've been thinking...Do y'all think it would be better suited for a stallish team (since Ferrothorn usually costs you a lot of momentum) or could it be possible to use it on a balanced/bulky offensive team...

Just outta curiosity, I see this point being made several times by different people, but what exactly is "defining the meta"? Is it forcing people to run counters/checks? Is it usage? Because regarding Aegislash and Mawile, I think "defining the meta" is kind of a vague statement. I can only go...
