    ORAS OU Dedicated Volt-Turn

    I could try out SD Talonflame, Will-o-wisp is more-so just a filler. I have the banded Talon as opposed to set up Talon so that I can keep momentum with a u-turn if need be.

    ORAS OU Dedicated Volt-Turn

    I've been having a lot of fun with this team and I haven't lost very many battles with it. Gimmick it may seem to be, but I can easily manage most opponents with the sheer fact that i keep momentum up with it so I can always weigh my best options while putting my opponent at a disadvantage...

    Other ORAS Metagame Discussion

    Not too mention the rampant Mach punches and bullet punches. tyrantrum seems to serve as a rampardos that gave up it's strength for a little bulk and speed, but it's damage output is equally hampered by it's weaknesses.

    General What brought you to Smogon?

    I joined because I got tired of playing alone behind the sidelines and wanted to be a part of a community again. No one my age plays anymore and I find it hard to get to know people strictly on Showdown. Ive been competitive battling for going on 7 years so I thought it was time to join up.

    Hi there everyone, I'm Dom. I have only been on Smogon for about a month and want to be more involved in the community. I've been playing since i was 5 and started competitive battling at 14 in gen 4. I was active in the pokemongts forum way back when but I took a break and now want to be a part...

    Resource ORAS Good Cores (Check Post #714)

    Ahh I see what you mean, the first leaf storm is neglible unless it hits super effectively for sure.

    Resource ORAS Good Cores (Check Post #714)

    It'd be very ignorant of someone to assume serperior had no drawbacks, however if any of it's resists have been taken care of, as well as anything with a decently strong or super effective priority, it can quickly decimate and clean up a team mid to late game.

    Resource ORAS Good Cores (Check Post #714)

    I see your reasoning there, I forgot that he has those moves due to the other members of my team and to stop constant switching and pulling doubles. But hp fire helps regardless to stop leech seeding and make ferrothorn switch or die at least.

    Resource ORAS Good Cores (Check Post #714)

    Because it would require significant investment in attack to Ohko Heatran with earthquake and that would take away from its use as a special attacker. It'd be ridiculous to stay in for more than one hit with the Lati twins, and venusaur can eat lava plume and 2hko heatran, though to stay in with...

    Resource ORAS Good Cores (Check Post #714)

    I find this core to be pretty useful to use as a defensive core, it works wonders in balanced teams as they are not simply walls but tanks.They can cover a good portion of the OU meta defensively. (Heatran) (F) @ Leftovers Ability: Flash Fire EVs: 248 HP / 8 SpA / 252 SpD Calm Nature - Lava...

    XY OU A little bit Tanky

    This is my first post on a forum period so forgive me if I do anything wrong, but this is the team I've been using on Showdown for a while and I've gotten to about 1500 so far with it, any feed back would be most helpful. This team normally ends up making me have long drawn out battles but it is...
