BUMP: Edited post to make it a bit flashier, and updated EVs/movesets to match what I've been tinkering around with. Still looking for advice; especially within replacements for Armaldo (I really don't know what else to do...).

Don't know if this has already been said, but your team is Intimi-Bait. Way too many physical attackers. I myself have the same problem with my team, or at least, I do up to a certain extent (3 phys., 3 spec., but only one spec. is made for offense), and I know how hard it is to just let go of...

Professional rookie.

I saw Encore, but thought maybe not. Poli is too slow, so I don't really know for sure what move I could be Encoring unless the enemy is slower than me. I didn't see Helping Hand as an option... Couldn't find Icy Wind, either. Rain Dance is a bit redundant, and not really a safe play with Poli...

Got rid of Poli. Again. Instead, I'm running Tornadus. Jafar (Tornadus) @ Damp Rock Ability: Prankster Level: 50 EVs: 164 HP / 252 Def / 4 Spe / 88 SpD Calm Nature O Rain Dance O Hurricane O Protect O Tailwind Really only meant to be a bulkier weather-setter, while at the same time not being...

ADDED POLITOED: I read the ratings again, and realized that Megazard Z was right in saying that I needed a Politoed. It really takes away from the whole element of surprise with my team, but then again, so did the fact that I even had Mega Swampert in the first place. If anyone else suggests or...

This team is a bit outdated. Please go to http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/rmt-where-the-sun-dont-shine.3532704/ for my actual current team, edited with the help of other raters. I still have Armaldo on that team, though, so I'll try to update the thread over there if I can to include...

You know, I never understood why people always said that hazards didn't fit in Doubles. Especially in Tinka's Toxic Spikes, this meta is filled with pokémon who want to switch out and pop back into battle all over the place. Scrafty, Politoed, Hippodown, Abomasnow, Landorus, etc, are all the...

Just an Update: Cold Rod (Ferrothorn) (M) @ Leftovers Ability: Iron Barbs Level: 50 EVs: 4 HP / 36 Atk / 252 Def / 216 SpD Relaxed Nature IVs: 0 Spe O Power Whip O Leech Seed O Protect O Stealth Rock Gyro Ball replaced with Power Whip to counter the all-irritating Rotom-W. Looking into ways to...

Thanks for the advice! I tossed Toxic on Ferrothorn for protect. The only problem is, the Tentacruel isn't really made entirely for Rain Dance -- it's just more of a phazer that I saw fit to add Rain Dance to, especially since it could take the Thunderbolt in that story, and I just don't know if...

So, to reply to this... I stated in the very beginning that the reason I ran Goodra over Politoed was because of better bulk, redirecting the opponent's attention, and most importantly, because it goes last and sets up most recent weather change. That means that the rain stays. If Politoed...

One second. I actually edited this thread a bit but had to re-create the thread, so I'm going to delete this one. Just wanted to tell you so that you knew that I read your comment! :) EDIT: Well, I don't really know how to delete that other thread. I just hope I don't get banned for it.

Hi Smogon! So, this is one of my first posts, outside of maybe the introduction and I think one more, but I'm in a bit of a bind here. I mean, my team doesn't feel all too bad, and I've won quite a lot with it. But I lose just as much, and when I lose, I get mauled. That's why I came here. Just...
