Whoopsie - In all honestly, there were a couple of Mild Starmie's in here at one point :facepalm:

I have been laddering a lot recently and thought I would do a larger teamdump. This is far from the sum total of everything I have, but I am hoping it's still a good amount. Everything below I am either sharing cause it performed very well in testing (1800+) and/or has a novel structure/idea/mon...

If by "robs" you mean results in the player who played worse in the game winning, I don't think Suicune really robs games much at all. With the exception of Stalk getting the miracle procs it needs occasionally, I rarely ever win with or lose to Cune and feel it wasn't deserved. If Cune 1v4-6s...

Wanted to keep up my streak of submissions and I think this is a fun team. This round has been super popular and so if the judges want to ignore this as being a late entry or something idm - I kinda feel sorry for them at this point. Thankfully, I won't be giving a long write up cause I also...

Below is my submitted VR. I don't play tours so this is more a reflection of how I think about the tier when building teams. I have tried to describe different tiers in terms of the roles mons fill at different levels of viability. Obviously there isn't going to be a one size fits all way of...

1,2,3. Too much time on my hands this week. Probably won't get this again ever. GXEs are a bit in the toilet. Blame Steelix. Peaked at 1910 with the top one. Probably should have tried to get higher but wasn't feeling it.

Yeah your analysis is basically on point. I think I wasn't clear enough that I do regard Ghost/Bug as mainly a CB move. I think that the most splashable Regirock Spikes structure looks something like: ,,,/,/ Water-type, +1 . The +1 generally will be some speed control/revenge killer like...

Interesting takes. I think Rock can run hp-Bug to hit Dol and be Lure Celebi pretty viably - obviously this comes at the cost of running Twave or Boom and makes Rock play more like a BKC Tar than a Boom trader, but that is what you want on many Spikes teams. I don't want to comment too much on...

Regirock is pretty underutilised on Spikes teams IMO. It is a pretty natural spikes abuser. As you say, it's just hard to justify over (or alongside) Tyranitar on the Bulky Spikes Offence teams which it feels like it has the right tools to fit on. I think Rock fits well with Bliss on Spikes...

Speaking of changes to OU, when are we going to admit this was a mistake? Medicham RankUsage%Win % SPL XVII3511.060 ADVPL VI3192.4344.44 Jimvitational 33372.2328.57 1760 + ELO34N/A2.32N/A

With Celebi being ruled out, I decided to try using Espeon as a CM Pass user instead. Espeon-Forre SpikeOff Initial Ideas: The qualities I thought Espeon had were: Fast and strong enough to be a reasonable revenge killer/speed control Calm Mind gives it the potential to ramp and clean up...

This is a team I was working on as this round was announced. It fits the requirements so here we are: The Olympics Initial Ideas: I wanted to build a Special offence team around the following trio : Recover + 3Atks Starmie as an offensive threat with longevity vs many defensive builds...

Here are some fun (and hopefully good) teams. I Reached 1800 on the ladder with all of these. Many did even better than this. : Aero + Offmie SpikeOff Pretty generic Aero Spikes Offense. This team has been fire though - pretty similar to this but plays at a slightly slower pace. This 6 has...

Broke 1900 today. LFG. Claiming Platinum knowledge and brave.

I wanted to build a spikes offence team with Raikou. Partly because it's a style I am comfortable playing, and partly because it's hopefully something novel. Most of the Raikou Spikes teams that exist at the moment are sandless semi-stall(ish) teams which take the approach of trying to wear its...
