Yeah, I think that might be an option to consider provided your team has other options to deal with Jellicent, which from my experience in DW OU is one of the most common switch-ins to Keldeo due to its immunities to both of Keldeo's STABs. Imo HP Ghost is definitely still the best option...

You make a good point, but I think team preview reduces the effectiveness of Ditto somewhat -- any player, upon seeing Ditto in the team preview, should be cautious about setting up their sweepers if they know they are unable to deal with the monster they created once Ditto comes in to copy the...

The NBA Finals has been played with a 2-3-2 format since 1985. I would much rather the 2-2-1-1-1 format though.

Lakers starting the 2nd with a 5-0 run. Not much was going their way in the 1st except for maybe rebounding, which the Celtics really need to improve on -- you can't let L.A. get so many offensive rebounds just this early into the game. Go Celtics! Edit: Fuck, make that a 9-0 run. Wtf C's.

Not sure where to post this but this seems to be the most appropriate thread. In the Venusaur analysis, the fourth paragraph of the Mixed Attacker set mentions Cresselia -- now BL -- as a counter. I believe the set was written with UU usage in mind, not OU, so that mention of Cresselia should...

As many have said, this is probably the most balanced metagame we've had in a long time. No suspects.

I think 252 Atk / 28 SpAtk / 228 Speed with Hasty/Naive works well, outspeeding Rotom. Hasty might be better since Rotom might not switch and you'll have to take a special hit. This is of course all going on the assumption that you're intending to run the standard Pursuit set of Pursuit /...

I have no idea why you're running a special move in Surf when you're running a -SpAtk nature, and when Kingler's SpAtk stat is piss poor. What you want to use is Crabhammer, its 85% accuracy is disappointing but it's the best physical STAB move Kingler has. Anyway, Agility Kingler is in no way a...

Low Kick is a good move to use over Cross Chop. You hit stuff like Donphan and Milotic for the same base power, while hitting Registeel harder. Yeah, you hit other stuff for less power but most of the Pokemon that you would use your Fighting-type move on won't particularly enjoy a +2 Low kick...

I wouldn't go as far as to say that the Spike-stacking strategy would be completely gone, as Cloyster and Omastar are still around and they're both good in their own right. Sure, they may not be as effective as Froslass (seeing as how teams won't be able to have a spiker and spin blocker...

Confirming as Elda.

You're probably selecting 'Standard Metagame' when entering the Team Builder. Low Kick is a HG/SS move for Weavile so you need to select 'Smogon University' when entering the Team Builder, since it has all the new moves implemented.

The set posted by Smurf. gives Uxie 286 speed, which does outspeed postive base 80s.

Yeah, TrickScarf Uxie is pretty amazing. I personally run Thunder Wave over Toxic for reasons stated by HR., and U-turn over Psychic. I run a mainly offensive team and since most of my Pokemon can't afford getting afflicted by status, Uxie acts as a nice switch to the Pokemon which set I'm...
