Mandibuzz is a potential check to Hoopa-U. It only fears t-bolt and +2 focus blast while hitting back hard with foul play. 0 Atk Mandibuzz Foul Play vs. 4 HP / 0 Def Hoopa: 259-306 (85.7 - 101.3%) -- 6.3% chance to OHKO (uninvested attack for hoopa).

Jolteon + Spikes Honorable Mention: Water absorb Forretress

I'm really liking Jolteon as I keep reading this thread. Jolteon desperately needed something interesting in its movepool and this could be what it needed to carve a niche. Jolteon wins easy against the water and flying hazard removers (starmie,tentacruel,mandibuzz,skarmory), while being able to...

Weak Armor Mega Garchomp

Soooo don't mean to be that guy but there's been no discussion for a few days now, when do we get to vote?

M-Banette Ghost/Fighting and Drain Punch. (Honorable mention: Umbreon+Magic Bounce)

theorymon suggestion: Tangrowth+U-turn

Holy crap this slate, noivern seems the weakest of the bunch but still a good idea. I would normally groan over something like desolate land being given to a mon but it makes sense on megarupt and buffs to trick room teams seem like a cool idea but I'm sure he would see use outside of trickroom...

+1, those are all great abilities that can make a bunch of mons strong/broken. Unfortunately 100 base atk and 65 base speed aren't turning heads anywhere near OU even with a cool move like thousand arrows. Poor guy basically needs a mega or huge power to be OU.

Damn I'm torn on this one, while I love the mega bee, I'm more inclined to defensive stuff(RIP Thundi and Mandi). uuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Recover+Bronzong (Council please bring the loser of these two back on another slate)

Mega Sceptile + Technician

I want forretress to be good in OU but this version doesn't seem to be good enough. Maybe U-turn can have him see the light of day. Mega-ttar can very easily have hippowdon on the team to help him out should he be forced out, I think it is pretty scary. I did some common priority calcs to show...

I agree with this suspect 100%, I haven't played ubers since gen 1 since it's just been shit since then, hopefully with this guy banned we can move on to ban the other stupid stuff in the tier and get back to the mewtwo vs mewtwo days of yore.

0 SpA Pixilate Sylveon Hyper Voice vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Latios: 252-296 (84.2 - 98.9%) -- 75% chance to OHKO after Stealth Rock Latios doesnt like staying in on sylveon, life orb gets OHKO'd most of the time and sylveon can use wish/protect shenanigans heal up.
