    Bye Drizzle

    Ok, thanks Shrang for explaining how the set is viable. From the description I origianally thought it was based off accuracy, but now I get it. Although in my opinion, surf and hydro pump is still repetitive and ice beam at least hits all the dragon/flying, and dragon/grounds and flying types...

    Bye Drizzle

    Drizzle isn't banned just yet! Don't give up hope lol. But here's what I think. I would have to agree with smith about defensive politoed. With my rain team which consists of politeod/zapdos/birijion/nattorei/kingdra/kabutops, politoed needs the survivability and the defensive spread lets...

    Gen V Sandstorm, Epic Awesomeness

    I could see this team having a severe weakness to a standard rain team of politoed, kingdra, kabutops/ludiculo/gorebyss, nattorei. Rain teams usually attack primarily with water, ice, grass, electric in which your team covers fairly poorly. Surf hits 3 members super effective with only 1...

    RATE MY STANDARD TEAM

    For a special sweeper for 4th gen you may be able to use lightningrod zapdos(you can use it 4th gen right?, otherwise pressure's ok too). Personally, I've found alot of success with zapdos on a few of my teams and is a great special sweeper as well as a wall. It works well to cover your...

    Sad sand is sad (Gen 5 ''Standard'')

    I would have to agree Burungeru would be of much more use to this team. Water Absorb makes rain's primary attacks, surf and waterfall free recovery and it resists the relatively common ice move on rain teams as well. Also, as previously mentioned by AB2, it blocks spin. Nattorei and Burungeru...

    You got your Strawberry Jelly, Grape Jelly, and... Lime Jelly?

    Nice team, Rankurusu is quite deadly from my experience, just a few things I thought I'd try to point out. I don't see how this team effectively counters rain teams, quite a common team in this metagame, since you have one ss user, one electric and zero grass moves. Something like kabutops or...

    RATE MY STANDARD TEAM

    You seem pretty new so I'll try to help you out, pm me if you want further explanations. Ok, starting with your lead, what are you trying to accomplish? Eveery lead should have a goal. It doesn't set up any entry hazards and isn't too useful later in the game. Silk scarf is useless since it...

    Rain or Shine (Gen V OU)

    Having played for 7 weeks now with 2 weeks in gen V, I've gotten a decent grasp about the game and it's strategy. My current rain team has gotten me to a peak of 227 on the ladder and I currently am at 306 at this time. However, I thought I'd have some more experienced players look at my team...
