Just wanted to point out that slow Volt Switch/U-turn users + Defog/Rapid Spin can make Charizard Y do ridiculous amounts of work over the course of a match since very few things can repeatedly switch into it. A favorite of mine is Defensive Scizor with U-turn and Defog, as it can take a lot of...

The most prominent set is usually a physically defensive set with SR, but I found the Choice Scarf one is can be a nasty surprise with fast and powerful Earthquakes, and the ability to U-turn out. I've been using it as a check to Mega Lucario, and it also gives good momentum.

I tried rain a few times and it can be very powerful thanks to the unbanning of Swift Swim + Drizzle (I found Kabutops to be extremely dangerous), and Tornadus-T spamming Hurricanes. However, the main issue is that Politoed is not very good in on its own, and the fact that once weather dies you...

I know using Sticky Web support as an argument can make almost any pokemon seem ridiculous, but Landorus-I is probably one of the best pokemon to be supported by it. So many of the pokemon usually used to outspeed and ko Landorus are obliterated by Earth Power, and it allows Landorus to put out...

I started playing Pokebank OU recently (only around 1700, so not that great) but my attempts at playing stall were quite unsuccessful. I am by no means amazing at it, but teams involving heal bell/wish passers were brutal, especially since a lot of the mega evolutions have decent base bulk, and...

I'm not the greatest at playing slow/semi-stall teams but Genesect seems to crush them, it doesn't help that U-Turn works well in bringing out some of this gens' powerhouses.

I tried: Aggron @Aggronite Calm 252 HP 252 SpDef Dragon Tail Roar Rest Sleep Talk Pretty decent at racking up entry hazards and preventing set-up sweepers due to Filter and his already monstrous Defense stat. It wasn't anything extraordinary though, and mostly useful for the surprise factor.

Perhaps a Raikou in place of Ursaring would do well. Raikou w/ Leftovers EVs: 68 HP / 116 SpA / 72 SpD / 252 Spe Nature: Timid Ability: Pressure ~ Calm Mind ~ Substitute ~ Thunderbolt ~ HP Ice / HP Grass This set decently uses the ability of toxic spikes and has a very good shot at sweeping...

I suggest this build for a pretty good crocune counter. Latias @ Choice Scarf Ability: Levitate Nature: Timid - Draco Meteor / Dragon Pulse - Surf - Thunderbolt - Trick Yeah Latias is pursuit bait but this choice scarf set lets you destroy crocune or any other wall by tricking it, while...

Electivire is rather easily walled by pokemon like rotom and cresselia so if you insist on using electivire run a pokemon like scizor to take out its counters. Oh btw, if you wanna see some really powerful wall breakers check out salamence and infernape. They could work out instead although you...

CB tar is not meant to sweep since being locked into one move makes you set up fodder. Run DDtar instead if you want a sweeper. On Machamp you may want leftovers for more recovery but that is up to preference. On Latias please either run Surf since it gives much better type coverage than psychic...

You could go even HP Grass to have another way to deal with swampert.

Any reason you use ice punch instead of hidden power ice? HIdden power ice hits many threats like gliscor, hippowdon, salamence than ice punch does since it strikes on the special side. You also have much more sp attack evs than attack evs

Tyraniboah will hurt your team real bad as if it gets a sub up and runs flamethrower it can take out your jirachi, and foretress, focus punch owns blissey and slaking (although sub owns slaking even more), dark pulse will hurt rotom really bad and dent swampert and with sub up you cant WoW...

Is your Heatran entirely needed as a scarfer since you already have Latias checking several potential threats? If you want, you can turn it into a Life Orb Tran with Substitute (many people are fooled into thinking its scarf until you sub and obliterate their counter) or even Specstran. All in...
