I don't think the set that I made is terrible <_< they have different uses lol, and they're all walled by the same things anyway, like altaria, sylveon, and chansey. If breaking through ferrothorn and skarmory is important to you then I definitely can see why you'd use HP Fire over outrage, but...

A fantastic aspect about Mega Sceptile besides his immediate speed and power is that he is a full stop to volt switch and he is immune to prankster twave. I wanted to make a set that not only does its usual job (strong dragon pulse and grass stab) but also, particularly important, ohko's...

Name: The CLAW General Description: This pokemon is OU viable and makes serious use of the Binding Band. The item should be widely considered equally viable with leftovers, choice item, or life orb, and using a trapping move is almost always your first choice over just attacking with a strong...

I think ability-based complex bans are a good idea but level-based (LV37 Groudon) and moveset-based (restless Manaphy) bans are not good ideas. Ability bans would probably reintroduce 2 pokemon to standard (Blaziken and Excadrill) and could also send rather annoying things like sand veil...

I start from the bottom up actually. I always have a straight up breloom counter on my team. I know you can't counter everything etc etc but there's seriously nothing I hate more than that smug bastard, so I choose something that can either absorb sleep or immune to status. I tend to have...

Are stall teams an effective way to ladder? Its my favorite play style, especially rain stall, but usually when I'm laddering if I'm playing against someone with a really high rank, it seems the tendency is sand volt turn or heavy offense, and I find myself either getting worn down by switches...

At the Lanturn: Ludicolo @ Life Orb Swift Swim Timid 4 HP / 252 SpAtk / 252 Spe -Hydro Pump -Giga Drain -Ice Beam -Rain Dance That Lanturn's strongest attack is Ice Beam which does a mere 17.9% - 21.2% or 54-64 damage out of Ludi's 302 HP. Giga Drain does 46.7% - 55.5% or 212-252 in return...

Long time lurker first time poster! Is there a ghost that can survive 2 (perfectly predicted) attacks from Starmie@Life Orb Timid 252SpAtk / 4 SpDef / 252Spe -Hydro Pump -Ice Beam -Thunderbolt -Rapid Spin AND retaliate with a ohko? (or survive 3 attacks and 2hko, etc) I feel there's no good...
