Well tbh I saw you as one of the few people giving the defensive set the time of day, heh. Maybe max speed is possible on the offensive set, though you're sacrificing a good amount of bulk while still not really being able to sweep. My instrict would be to play it as more of a hard-hitting...

In a similar vein, have you tried defensive before deciding it's outclassed? I'd wager most of those rejecting it haven't. It has a fairly narrow niche but that niche is there.

I'm glad to see Milotic getting an OU look, I've used it a fair amount this gen and gen5 with decent success. Rest Talk is IMO largely outclassed by Suicune for reasons already given. Offensive LO with competitive is interesting, will give it a try. Defensive is the one I've used most often...

I haven't used Smeargle much, but I also find it hard to see why Spore doesn't get a slash. Switch ins like Venusaur, Ferrothorn, Gourgeist and Trevenant are hardly terrifying as none of them can stop Smeargle from doing whatever job it's setting out to do, and some of those pokemon can't even...

Beating Manaphy and Rotom-W cleanly is notable, I just don't think it's so groundbreaking that Giga drain should be considered essential. Manaphy is one offensive threat in a metagame that contains many, and some teams may put more value on: 1) The ability to beat steel types with Earthquake/hp...

My preferred Megasaur set is: move 1: Synthesis move 2: Sludge Bomb move 3: Leech Seed move 4: Earthquake / Hidden Power Fire Basically the same as Jukain. I'm a bit surprised at the strength of opinion from some people about the importance of Giga Drain - hitting Manaphy is good, but that...

Offensive variants might be outclassed by Suicune, but using either in that way isn't really viable, at least in OU. As a bulky water, the biggest thing Milotic has over Suicune is instant recovery that doesn't force you to go to sleep, which is huge. The best comparison is Vaporeon, who has...

I think the main idea behind Competitive is to deter or take advantage of Defog users. I don't know how viable it is on a spike stacking team, just because a +2 uninvested scald still isn't that hard to switch into, but it's worth thinking about. I don't think a 3 attacks+dragon tail set without...

I normally use this set in OU: Milotic (F) @ Leftovers Trait: Marvel Scale EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 Spd Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk) - Scald - Recover - Toxic - Haze Nothing drastically different to what's been mentioned already, but I like being able to cripple other waters/bulky pokemon with...

If the two wall sets are being split, I'd possibly mention some specifics about what threats each can counter. I've mentioned what I think are the obvious ones for physically defensive, I've never used a specially defensive spread before, but I guess it lets it deal with things like...

I've been using non-Mega Alakazam a bit and I think Substitute deserves a mention somewhere for the Life Orb set. It gives you a good chance of revenge killing the likes of Bisharp, Absol and Mawile who rely on Sucker Punch (in my experience they nearly always use it first when you come in), and...

Not on QC team so apologies if speaking out of turn... Having used a good amount of Porygon2 this gen, I'm unsure why the wall set is geared towards SpD. It's not as though Specs Latios or Alakazam are super common so far, and I've actually found Porygon more useful in stopping a variety of...

I've been using the following core with some success on PO: Milotic (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Marvel Scale EVs: 252 HP / 252 SAtk / 4 Spd Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk) - Scald - Recover - Toxic - Haze Porygon2 @ Eviolite Trait: Trace EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 Spd Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk) -...

Welcome to my first RMT of the generation. I started playing competitive pokemon again a few months ago after a 12 month+ break, and I started gen6 soon after. This team isn't the first I've put together, but it is my most consistent one so far, getting me to just over 1400 (playing on PO, so no...

Life orb Excadrill is rare these days, I think Slowbro can still survive +2 X-scissor, but I'm not sure on that one and am too lazy to look for a BW damage calculator. CB Scizor adds some insurance against Excadrill but no more than that, if you switch in as Excadrill swords dances you're only...
