Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
So much creative stuff in this tier.

If you guys aren't familiar with Z-Mirror Move, it's probably the most broken Z-status move to even...
Echoing the format of the post above me,
I'm surprised that so many people are sleeping on Strong Jaws Bruxish.
Hits like a tank. Defensive mons are a joke next to this.
It's relatively fast.
Has Aqua Jet to revenge kill.
It gets Swords Dance?!
OHKOs Slowbro with +2 Crunch, and OHKOs...
Heya, been off of Pokemon for a while. I just got back into it today and made my first UU team. I need somebody to help suggest changes and reinforcements.
Is there anybody I can ask who's willing to review others' teams (senior users, etc) ?
After using Pipotchi 's Skill Swap Gourgeist set a bit, I managed to have a low-ladder game where Gourgeist walled Snorlax like a boss.

My current (still incomplete) team is Forry/Spdef Moltres/Scarf Kyurem/Seismitoad/Mega Scep/LO Hydreigon.

Some of the good things Virizion can trace are:
-Intimidate from Landorus-T (allows it to more-or-less counter Landog)
-Huge Power from Azumarill (252 Atk Huge Power Virizion Leaf Blade vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Garchomp: 171-202 (40.7 - 48%) -- guaranteed 3HKO)
-Flash Fire from...
Suggesting Drain Punch Poliwrath.
DP gives Poli reliable STAB, a form of heal, and better offensive presence.
Thanks to ability and type, Poliwrath already checks and counters Bisharp, MGyarados, Weavile, Keldeo & gator. DP as a STAB hits these mons better than lol Circle throw.
DP also buffs...
So at first glance, the only sensible theorymon to be seems to be Geomancy Sylveon.
On Jolteon: IMO random frail Spikers tend to be bad.
I recall when Greninja was around, I didn't see as many people running Spikes and Taunt as much as full-attacker Greninja. In terms of viability, the Spikes...
I don't agree with Sylveon being a GSI to Weavile.
For example, here's Specs Sylveon switching into LO Icicle Crash:
252 Atk Life Orb Weavile Icicle Crash vs. 244 HP / 0 Def Sylveon: 242-286 (61.7 - 72.9%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
