I concur! Your name is splendid! :D

Deoxys normal, if we're being honest, is low, not mid D rank. Totally outclassed in every measurable regard by either Deoxys attack or any number of dual screens users (Including Bronzong and the far better Deoxys S) it has virtually no niche except offering an offensive edge, which is not...

That Fennekin evolution is just begging for rule 34 pictures. When will people stop ruining pokemon with their filthy fetishes. Yeah I'm looking at you.

Very interesting. Super glad Surskit can be found early on. Probably won't include it in my first run which will be gen six pokes only, but perhaps in a later play through. Looking forward to starter full evolutions, it's about time they were released.

Very good. Could have had more depth on NU team building though I must say.

I wouldn't say its lost it's way but it does seem to be becoming more like digimon (something that was happening since gen 3). The designs have been becoming more over the top in a bid to beat each other. Gen 1: legendarys were just rare and...

I like the idea, but even with the following investments Smeargle really can't take hits. Almost every team in any tier has something that can out speed even with the Salac boost (there's no speed investments) instead I'd recommend. 252 HP, 252 Speed. Good idea though, I quite like it!

I agree that it is silly to not include Salamence and Staraptor in the flying analysis when they're indisputably some of the better flying types around. Nidoking lacks the ability to preform that well in OU due to a weakness to ground and lacklustre speed in a metagame that revolves almost...

Dragon spamming doesn't fair to well when you go up against hail based teams which is one it's greater flaws. Never thought of running a dark mono team but seems interesting. Water could go fairly well with access to such threats as Keldeo. Mono fire teams are just plain awful, requiring a...

Chansey for B+. A small change I'm aware but it manages to wall many threats Blissey can't handle. Boasting the ability the ability to take psyshocks while still walling a variety of special threats not named Keldeo. The fact it can actually take physical hits means it's not forced out nearly as...

Ninetales doesn't get enough love. After it's sun sweepers are significantly better than the two sand sweepers, and swift swim and drizzle are banned. 'Scizor top percentage again, what a suprise' (rolls eyes)

Like what I've seen so far. Loving the cover art

Awesome guide. I'm somewhat new to competitive battling and found the article quite useful. It was also entertaining to read and quite well written.

The reason we didn't see a suspect test for this earlier is mostly that during the early OU days of course, Deoxys and Genesect had the limelight. I've found most of what I've read quite interesting, I don't think I have much to add, but I agree Keldeo probably deserves a test.

I know you said you don't want to ever miss with Rotom-Wash and I respect that. But on the whole missing once or twice every now and again but being able to hit harder or survive longer is on the whole much better. I would recommend Stealth Rock on Heatran as your team is lacking this essential...
