Love the movesets on this team! Looks really fun to play. But how does it really stop sand drill? Zard Y easily gets worn down without roost and sand drill kinda destroys everything after mons like mew or terrak are even slightly weakened.

Okay sooo, I came up with this. http://pastebin.com/FEd0jyNR Manaphy->Rotom-W. Manaphy is powerful but it really doesn't get much of a chance to set up and sweep from testing. Also, the team kinda gets 6-0d by sand offense and really has no good way to deal with azumarill. Rotom-W also helps...

Just FYI Mega Absol doesn't outspeed max speed scarf ttar.

Ttar needs stone edge for damage; you're really losing out on sweeping potential with rock slide. The standard lead skarm @ brave bird/spikes/SR/taunt is good too. 252 attack/252 speed w/ custap. You get SR up guaranteed and brave bird lets you kill yourself and prevent spinning/defogging =)

Metagrossite: Do Not Ban

Confirming as WORSTshowdownplaya

I completely agree with this, hydro pump LO starmie gets important OHKOs such as on bisharp (75%), ttar switch ins (ex choice scarf, and good shot to OHKO 252 hp variants after rocks and just does much more damage in general. If you don't want an offensive spinner, probably better to run lefties...

Hmmm, not sure why Dr. Ciel is recommending 96/252/160 adamant zardX; that's an older XY zardX spread which outruns adamant excadrill (so you would need 2 dragon dances to outspeed excadrill in the sand, which you usually don't get). I would only run this spread if you run flare...

i feel like landorus-T should run at least 8 speed to outrun 44 speed rotom-w, which is its standard spread (to outspeed belly drum azu). Since you already have several ways to get rid of heatran, for ZardX, I recommend roost>EQ and I really recommend flare blitz > fire punch. Jolly ZardX is a...

Kk, sets and stuff overall look good; people already pointed out some obv changes like talon EV spread (never put 4 hp EVs on a mon weak to SR) and lum on chomp. My major prob with the team is that you have a talonflame and no Stealth rocks removal; your tflame will have extreme difficulty...

Greninja: Ban

Confirming as X Zard or Y Zard

Sooo, Zard really doesn't need to outrun Exca since you're a setup sweeping zard and if you kill air balloon exca, ur opponent WILL bring out a check/counter and you won't be able to set up. If you want fast zard tho, I would enough speed to outrun jolly landorus-T so you can kill it (if...

Okay so looking at the new sets; keldeo still really needs hydro pump for power (pick between HP electric and icy wind as a coverage move) and excadrill really wants to be max speed jolly (right now even things like Mega pinsir are outrunning you) to outrun +1 zardX and other setup sweepers.

Specs Keldeo and scarf exca is probs good; definitely give it a shot. Tho scarf Keldeo does have the big surprise factor. Iron head on exca helps against things like fable (if u lost mew) and modest garde (if talon went down). Also non sand rush exca doesn't need swords dance.
