Sorry, that was a typo, edited. And honestly, the no-recovery argument makes no sense to me given that plenty of great Xerneas checks - Pdon, Aegi, Bronzong, Klefki - also have no reliable recovery. Standard Xerneas coming in on something it forces out has three options: Moonblast, Geomancy, or...

I think Assault Vest is worth mentioning, either as its own set or as a slash on All Out Attacker. It lets Solgaleo function as a consistent Xerneas check (doesn't get beat down easily like the All Out Attacker set) while still preserving offensive pressure and coverage. Probably best suited to...

I would add Bulky Yveltal to the list of checks. Absent rocks it can take two Double Edges, and respond with Roost or Foul Play, which does over half. If Mence DDs on the switch, Yveltal eats a Double Edge and murders it with Foul Play. You have to be a little more careful if rocks are up, but...

Both of these are super rates, thanks a bunch. Yeah you nailed it, I hate Ho-Oh. I usually have to sack something every time it comes in, so I solve that with an excess of somewhat random rock moves. I think you're probably right that I just need to play around it better. I'll definitely try...

> Poison Berries - ORAS Ubers < Introduction Hey everyone! Long time lurker, first time poster here. Looking to get more involved, so I thought I'd start by posting an ubers team I've been working on. I've been playing with and refining this team on the upper levels of the ubers...

http://pokemonshowdown.com/replay/oucurrent6774452 Reuniclus set up Trick Room as Breloom swithces in. Breloom then outspeeds somehow and uses spore. Reuniclus runs min speed and the opponent confirmed that Breloom was faster. Unless I'm missing something (which is entirely possible) shouldn't...

As someone who ran the scarf set with a lot of success, I've found that one of it's best attributes over other scarfers is its bulk allows it to survive a number of surprising attacks. This could easily be utilized with a bulky leftovers set (and maybe hail support?) to make an incredibly...

I never run calcs. All my moves I base on type effectivness, prediction, and guts. Pokémon battling is supposed to be a test of wits, skill, and prediction. If you're running damage calcs, you're just going through the motions.

Well, your team is pretty well set up except for the levels. Your going to need to be around level 50-55 as the Elite 4 is levels 46-58. However the Chapiok uses Steel types which should be easily handled with your Blaziken. So all the top Pokemon will be weak to you moves. Here is the Elite 4...
