So, I changed my team around to: Gallade Bisharp Talonflame Latios Heatran Rotom-W On paper it looks ok. However, I played 5 games and won 3 of them, which isn't bad, but they were close games. The main things I've noticed is: Even though I have T-flame with Acrobatics, Mega Lopunny can...

Wow, thanks everyone for all your rates. I'm still digesting your help but I'm seeing common themes here, with regards to tweaking sets. As such, I'm going to trail everything you've all suggested regarding the sets, i.e. black glasses on Bish, Knock off + Zen headbutt on Gallade. One little...

What's up Smogon? I figured it's time for a new rmt, and a core I've been wanting to build around for a long time because of it's sheer power and versatility, as well as it's ability to take out some of the most popular mons to rampage OU. However, i'm struggling to keep it past 1300, hovering...

Bump. Sorry to be bumping, but I want this cleared up as I'm currently facing Groudon again on Ruby and need to know his preferred nature: Because I suck and can't get Arceus, should I run T-tar in the last slot? I'm not so mad on sandstorm damage but oh well. He can run stealth rock and can...

The only thing with that is the team now has 3 dragons, 2 of which have win-cons :/ sorry dude, I feel bad because you can't suggest conventional things anymore, but I wanna thank you for the help you've provided for this team!

Mega Lucario resists every form of Salamence's attacks, can run ice punch to ruin his day, has access to priority steel and swords dance for fairy checks, while I can slap rock slide on Groudon to mess up Ho-Oh. As I said I'll be doing a lot of pvp battles with this team rather than showdown...

Yeah I fully appreciate the rate, and wasn't trying to shit on your rate or anything, was just wondering what you think could fit into the team should I decide to build it on Ruby. The only two mons I can't use is Arceus, and I COULD run Ho-oh but I'd life orb/recover that one, as if I'm playing...

Thanks so much for your reply, it's really helped out. I'm gonna break it down and go through it: Firstly, I'm building this on Omega Ruby and as such I can't get access to Ho-Oh's hidden ability. I like the dazzling gleam Sp Def Klef. I was worried Klef was too passive for this team - does he...

Yo guys, welcome to my first ubers rmt, featuring Ho-Oh. Since I have Omega Ruby (the best game of Gen 6) I really wanted to build something that could work around Ho-Oh and let it shine, giving me an excuse to start soft resetting for it. So let's get right into it! (Listen to this, it's...

Yeah man, for sure on that Scizor set. Even with 0 attack investments it ko's M-diancie, so it can't touch my scizor even if it protects, and even if it lands the HP fire on the switch, it does 96% with HP fire while I do 134% with BP, crit hax aside. Why go that bulky though? apart from...

Yo! I like your suggestion for Metagross, but I lose a lot of damage switching out Bish, and since Heatran is running earth power, I don't need EQ that much. How about a bulky swords dance LO scizor? Dat technician bullet punch though. It'll ko Gardy and diancie, while removing the double...

Alright, I've been wanting to build a team around this guy for ages, and I think I've found a good team to build around it, or rather, built a team and let M-Sableye do what it does. Teambuilding process/quick glance at the team: I started off with this guy, since I wanted to...

Hey! Thanks for your suggestions. Firstly, Ancient power actually deals more damage and is 100% accurate: 252 SpA Heatran Ancient Power vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Talonflame: 356-420 (119.8 - 141.4%) -- guaranteed OHKO 0- Atk Heatran Stone Edge vs. 0 HP / 4 Def Talonflame: 316-372 (106.3 - 125.2%) --...

Interesting. So you'd use the calm mind to set her up as a sp.def tank. No, Magic guard is fine because it's another status absorber and let's it survive a little longer. I'm probably gonna run Speed and Special attack for the jump on adamant E-drill (which I ohko with lava plume :D) Ah, thank...

Hey there! Thanks for your comments! :) Yeah, having loads of fun with M-Sceptile! I love that between him and Heatran I'm immune to every status effect :D I think I agree with Magic guard Clef - being a tanky fairy helps me deal with M-Sable better. Would you go defensive or specially...
