Bump it Up!

Hello everyone, me again. A while back I put my OU team up for rating here on Smogon and got a lot of helpful suggestions. Here's the original thread: http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/my-very-first-competitive-team.3497560/ So after weeks of experimenting, tweaking, and playing around...

OU.

First let me start by saying that I'm something of a n00b. Yes, I've been playing Pokemon since Yellow version, but up until the Sixth Generation, I haven't touched a pokemon game since Gen-III, so I don't claim to be an expert on competitive battling. That said however, I HAVE been doing my...
