I really like this idea, CB Scizor does cover alot of threats to this team. If I take out Lucario, I might as well take out Celebi's screens and turn him into a tinkerbell set like someone else mentioned. As for Starmie, I feel that Recover is more important than Ice Beam. I'm almost never...

A Wish for Victory Hey everyone. I've been playing the Fifth Generation metagame for almost a year now and I think it's time I gather some constructive criticism on my favorite OU team. By no means is this team amazing or super competitive (I've only cracked the top 100 or so on PO)...

Whats up guy, So I just looked briefly at your team and it look like your team is weak to quick special attackers. Common rain team pokes like Starmie, Thundurus, and Rotom-W will give your team fits because they pack strong special attacks like hydro pump, thunder, and ice beam / hp ice that...

Looks good! Type synergy is good. The only thing that I personally would change is turning Starmie into a rapid spinner, seeing that 3 of your pokes are weak to stealth rocks. Without rapid spin support, your rotom and thundurus will be racking up alot of SR damage with all of your volt...

That darmanitan set looks to be the ultimate stall breaker. It could definately work, it 's just going to take good prediction since you have to switch it in on stealth rocks, spikes, or a healing move to encore. Encore is essential for this set IMO. Just make sure nothing on the opposing...

Maybe that is a better idea, since i'm not investing anything in offense anyway. I think just using its typing as a switch in to ferro and jelli is the way to go. I'm going to try it out. As for the justified boost + leaf blade combo, it's pretty situational and you can't really switch into a...

yeah you got the idea, if i suspect ferro stays in i always taunt though

Virizion @ Light Clay Justified / Impish (+Def -SpA) 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD Leaf Blade Reflect Light Screen Taunt This is my favorite dual screen set when I play in the OU tier. Capable of hitting both Ferrothorn and Jellicent for STAB super effective damage and capable of taunting to...

Thanks so much for the pointers, I'll be sure to try it out!

This team is my first ever and I would love to get some criticism and other people's opinions on it. I've tested this team online for quite a bit now, and have fared pretty well against random players. So without further ado... Forretress Ability: Sturdy...

I use the same ev spread and nature as this but i use WoW and flamethrower instead of lava plume and SR for my team. I find that switching in Heatran safely without an air balloon early in the game tends to attract a physical attacker with EQ while you sub on the switch and burn the next turn...
