If the other lead is physical, use reflect first, then SR, then light screen. If you need to taunt the lead, then do so, but probably use 1 screen first. If the other lead is special, use light screen first. After 3 turns, with the screens deoxys usually dies. You wont have time to set up lots...

I think stealth rock on deoxys is more effective than spikes. It hits everything, breaks sashes and sturdy pokemon. Also deoxys shouldn't waste turns with screens up setting up spikes. The screens should be used for the sweepers.

Gengar (M) @ Life Orb Trait: Levitate EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Substitute - Disable - Shadow Ball - Pain Split Try the gengar with pain split and disable. It will take a really long time to die, gives blissey hell, (I think you can outstall it). Life orb...

I recommend you use rhyperior. It's slow as hell (perfect for TR), big and bulky, and hits like a train.

Agree with getting rid of aerodactyl. You should swamp aero for either a lead tyranitar with Stealth rock or a hippowdon. For your Zapdos, you can make it timid, have leftovers, have sub, roost, tbolt, and toxic. 248 HP / 184 SpD / 76 Spe to help it stall forever, letting poison, sandstorm...

I made this team yesterday, and I've been playing with it on Shoddy today, but I think it may need some improvement. Rates are appreciated! Gliscor @ leftovers ability: sand veil EVs: 252 HP/40 Def/216 Spd Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Stealth Rock - U-Turn - Earthquake - Roost -Gliscor's...

Ok, so this is my first UU team that I made, and I need some help on it. My main strategy is to start with smeargle to get a quick spore in. Then later immobilize something by tricking a choice scarf on it. I can also have some fun transforming into the enemy pokemon. After smeargle hopefully...

why is the dd tar adamant? why not jolly? it could outspeed much more pokes if jolly. what can it not kill when jolly than when adamant?

I've seen some rotoms on shoddy lately, but don't really know what they do. Can yall shed some light on the new rotoms and forms and everything special about it. Good movesets too. thanks

I have tried your team. It is pretty effective, but the Jirachi hasn't swept yet. So far, what has been working is heatran kills a snorlax or blissey, then yanmega sweeps alot. And garchomp sweeps some too. In what situations should i use jirachi b/c it doesn't seem to work for me.

yeah, drop that breloom set. Make it the standard or just use an entirely different sweeper

make gayrados have life orb with 252 atk/ 172 speed evs or whatever it is to get 244 speed. rest in hp. This is the only way to go with gyara. I have tried bulky gyara and it sucked. the only thing it did for me was scare enemy gyarados away which a celebi can to better. Make it offensively...

so is there any difference between the official server and the smogon server? Also will I keep my ladder points if I switch from official to smogon?

ahhh, that game was intense!!! During that Garchomp/Salamence destruction, I kept switching garchomp out b/c I had more pokemon to sacrifice than you. I thought I had won when it was scizor vs gengar cuz CB scizor's pursuit is beast. When gengar got that crit on scizor I was like....crap. It...

BUMP I made heatran a rest talker. Because heatran is now my resttalker, I got rid of machamp. I can't think of anything to fill in for it. Right now I put in deoxys -S just because it's a nice revenge killer/late game sweeper. Deoxys is replace able though. What do yall think?
