    Mold Breaker also has the very niche use of being able to set up Stealth Rock on/T-Wave Magic Bounce Users. Protect is also a potential move on any set. If you are only hitting every second turn anyway, you can make your opponent do the same. You obvisiouly have to anticipitate them setting up...

    Just want to say that Iron Hands is an absolute menace in Electric Terrain. Super strong, nice bulk and a good offensive typing. Its Movepool is solid and only its Speed is a bit lacking, but it gets the job done. I have been running Pincurchin as a terrain setter with this Set: Iron Hands @...

You can run it on Offense or even Balance without compromising your Team to much, as it can usually carry its weight. Its a decent Stallbreaker, but its also amazing against...
  6. SM OU Going Fast. Beedrill+ Talonflame HO [Top 500 Ladder]

    Introduction Hi, I have been playing Pokemon for quite a while now, but I have never made a post in the forum before. I always enjoyed building my own teams, even though they are mostly pretty bad. So when this one started to perform pretty well, I was actually rather surprised. It took a...
