  1. Nature Swap [Talonflame unbanned!]

    (can't seem to show the s in my name on the bottom left :V) Ban Cloyster I don't actually have many problems with cloyster on my team because I have both Empoleon and Alomamola on my team which do a decent job at shutting it down together. However, pretty much the only reason that I run...
  2. Other Metagames Unity Volt Turn [#3 1500 ELO] [Ability Unity]

    | | | | | Introduction At the beginning of the month I saw the description of Ability Unity and thought it sounded like a lot of fun. The moment I read about it I thought "Protean Porygon-Z would be a lot of fun." The only remaining pokemon from that original team are zapdos and...
  3. Almost Any Ability XY (Suspect Over: Weavile banned, Keldeo Stays)

    *replace Gengar with Mismagius for nasty plot set*

  5. Semi-Stall team 1800s

    Hello everyone! This is my first RMT of this generation. I really like this team a lot and have a lot of fun playing with it. I wanted to come here and see how it could be improved. I started the team wanted to use hippowdown because I was reading the OU viability thread and I had yet to...
  6. Other Better Battlers Project

    I think it was more than a miss prediction and just the wrong move in general. Pinsir could OHKO the rest of the opponents team bsides clefable w/o the SD boost (which wouldnt help vs clefable) you shoulda just spammed return. 252 Atk Aerilate Mega Pinsir Quick Attack vs. 4 HP / 0 Def Mega...
  7. Other Better Battlers Project

    Turn 1: I really do not know what was the right choice in this situation, I think i would have wanted to see a zapdos switch in rather than talonflame in case of brave bird, but it gets hit really hard by flare blitz. I do feel you made the correct decision by switching because of the posibility...
  8. Resource ORAS OU Simple Questions, Simple Answers (Read the OP First!)

    To answer your question, Mixed salamence would be the better wall breaker because of its higher Sp. Attack and speed stats. However both of these choices are incredibly overshadowed by both mega garchomp and kyurem black as mixed dragon type wall breakers. (choice band Dnite is a pretty good one...
  9. Other XY OU Viability Ranking Thread (B- and C+ Pokemon discussion)

    No discussion on this? It'd be a shame if my hour or so doing calcs went ignored....
  10. Other XY OU Viability Ranking Thread (B- and C+ Pokemon discussion)

    I would like to nominate Chandelure for B+ tier Reserved for Pokemon who cannot sweep through or wall significant portions of the metagame, but can properly fulfill a given offensive/defensive niche. Support Pokemon in this category have flaws that prevent them from doing their job or are setup...
  11. OU Simple Questions, Simple Answers (Read the OP First!)

    Welcome to the pokemon showdown and smogon cummunity I'm going to watch the replay and just explain what I would have done in the situation and reasons why Turn 1: I would have used fire blast/ flamethrower (whichever you have) over solar beam as it would have done more damage to every...
  12. Miss-fits in the Rain

    OP updated with changes
  13. Miss-fits in the Rain

    Hey thanks! I've give those changes a shot (I really like the idea of going for SR chomp). Idk if that Thundurus-T set you put at the end was meant to be a replacement for Jolteon, but I have already tried Thundurus-T over jolteon with a lot less success mainly because it is faster and takes...
  14. Miss-fits in the Rain

    Thanks a lot, looking at the speed tiers the empoleon changes make a lot of sense (dont have to drop an hp point now). I will try the Breloom and Landorus changes individually and together and see how it turns out, i have a feeling i will end up keeping breloom 252 speed jolly, but I will...
