Hi IronAbsol, Thanks for your suggestion, can you elaborate more? I like Heliolisk as with this team I have tried rotom-w and I find it just does not hit hard enough. Heliolisk is basically a less bulky version of raikou, which is not that bulky without investments. T-bolt and Hyper Voice have...

Thanks Juridisch for the feedback! Usually I have no problem with ferrothorn as Xatu is a safe counter 0 Atk Ferrothorn Gyro Ball (141 BP) vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Xatu: 130-154 (38.9 - 46.1%) -- guaranteed 3HKO after Leftovers recovery which give me plenty of time to t-wave and set up roost and...

Every since I have been playing competitive battling, I have always been building teams around Xatu. The satisfaction of bouncing back stealth rocks is actually more appealing than winning a match. Despite being ranked UU, I have found great use with this from from even ubers, with the ability...

Update, after recently discovering Cobalion's hidden ability Justified, I have found it makes a great partner with Xatu and Espeon to the take the expected dark hits for the added Attack boost. Cobalion @ Assault Vest Ability: Pressure Nature: Adamant EVs: 252 Att / 128 HP / 128 Spe - Close...

Wow the chandlure set worked nicely, helped with grass type that cause me trouble i.e Roserade, Amoongus, Chesnaught and Celebi :) I also decided to move on from my favourites and upgrade, now using espeon over xatu and walrein over dewgong. Already seeing much better results. Thanks for the help!

1. After playing with this team again, I've noticed regirock isn't doing as well. It's a nice counter to honchkrow, lucario and absol. I tried a rest set and made switching in to meganium to aromatherapy too much. What is a good replacement for regirock that could counter honchrow, scrafty...

So this is basically my first team developed, and may not be the strongest by to me is really fun to use. The team is built around Xatu and Dewgong, currently my two favourite pokemon (can't wait for there mega's). I won a few games by catching the opponent off guard, not knowing these uncommon...
