    XY OU Everything Breaks (CM Clefable Team 1700s)

    Hey Mango Smoothie, pretty nice team you've got here. Hopefully I can help improve it a bit more. The first change I'd recommend, as others have pointed out, is to change your CB Scizor to a Bulky SD Megazor. Bulky SD Megazor really helps out against Sand Offense, Azumarill and Bisharp, all of...

    XY OU Mega Tyranitar Team!

    Hey Reckless Raptor, I'm here to help you out with your team. I think you've got some good ideas going on within this team but it could probably use a bit more direction. You've shown that Mega-Ttar is the star of the show here so I think you could do a better job helping him achieve his end...

    Victini (QC 4/4) (GP 0/2)

    I think on the scarf set Zen Headbutt should be slashed with Final Gambit. Not only does Zen Headbutt give another STAB option and hit some notable threats with a scarf such as Keldeo, Gengar and Terrakion but it also gives you a usable coverage move late game as more than likely Victini won't...

    Baton Pass - its role in the metagame and possible solutions to nerf full Baton Pass chains

    If you want examples of replays where full baton pass is being used effectively just go to replays.pokemonshowdown.com and search for Denissss. He's one of the biggest offenders of full BP on the PS ladder and there's plenty of replays of matches that he has had on there. If you can somehow get...

    (UPDATE: Peaked 1884) First RMT in awhile: Need your help Smogon

    Yea Clear Smog on Amoongus is just for insurance for setup sweepers but I'm sure Sludge Bomb would work fine. If you decide to go the Thundurus route you could go a few different ways since you already have a scarfer. Some sets would be the standard T Wave 3 attacks, NP T Wave 2 Attacks, NP 3...

    (UPDATE: Peaked 1884) First RMT in awhile: Need your help Smogon

    Hey Stallion, pretty cool team you've got here. I like how you've used some underrated threats but have still been able to stay within the frameworks of a standard balanced XY team. With that being said, there are a few major threats to your team that still remain, namely Aegislash, Specs...

    Metagame NP: RU Stage -1: Message to Oglemi, Nails, and Honko (VENOMOTH STOLEN FROM US))

    Yea I may have been a bit misleading with my Clefable comparison. I've just been using Wish / Protect / Aromatherapy / Moonblast to allow for more reliable team support since I don't really feel CM Aromatisse with just Moonblast is much of a threat offensively in this metagame. This allows you...

    Metagame NP: RU Stage -1: Message to Oglemi, Nails, and Honko (VENOMOTH STOLEN FROM US))

    Not sure if anyone has posted about this yet but I've been using standard support Aromatisse on a Bulky Offensive team and the support that it provides is absolutely game changing. It's basically very similar to the way Clefable is being used in OU currently to check a ton of offensive threats...
