    SM OU Offensive Rain with one barely used Pokemon

    Have you considered Sash Alakazam over zoroark? Magic guard means you always have sash intact regardless of hazards and it can revenge all the above mons you mentioned except for MegaZam Alakazam @ Focus Sash Ability: Magic Guard EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Hasty Nature IVs: 0 Def - Counter...

    SM OU Charizard X Balance

    Why do u write flare blitz in the description but it's fire punch in the importable?

    Move/Ability animations thread

    Can we have the old ice beam animation back. I loved the flow of ice stream of the old rather than the new literal beam

    SM OU Mega Pidgeot Squad (Balanced Offense)

    Your mew set is pretty outdated. Mew runs more defense now for medicham and Zygarde. Also I'd run ice beam over psychic to check Zygarde Here's the set Mew @ Leftovers Ability: Synchronize EVs: 240 HP / 72 Def / 140 SpD / 56 Spe Bold Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Will-O-Wisp - Ice Beam - Roost -...

    Announcement np: SM OU Suspect Process, Round 4 - The Robots - Metagrossite BANNED

    I feel the 4MSS argument is totally bull, with some good team building it can perfectly sum up its coverage and patch it's weaknesses for eg. Magnezone will allow it to forgo tpunch. Also Metagross finds itself spamming meteor mash anyway. Offensive teams struggle to take its STABs, the ones...

    SM OU First team in 7 years. Bulky Offense

    Heart stamp is 60, you must have seen PP lol. But yeah heart stamp is bad. And discharge Zapdos is a legit set and discourages switch ins like ZardX and kyurem

    SM OU RMT - Pinsir/Mence "Birdspam" Offense

    You could opt for ice beam in there somewhere on Tar. Catch Lando on switch, reliably 2hkos

    SM OU RMT - Pinsir/Mence "Birdspam" Offense

    252 Atk Tyranitar Superpower vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Mamoswine: 322-380 (89.1 - 105.2%) -- guaranteed OHKO after Stealth Rock Ttar resists ghost, is immune to psychic so lele can't spam psychic, removes rain with sand

    SM OU RMT - Pinsir/Mence "Birdspam" Offense

    Scarf Ttar can fix some of your problems. Also don't run scarf Lando, it's the worst set for it. Chomp outclasses it as a scarfer (funny coz Lando outclasses chomp in every other area)

    +1 252 Atk Tough Claws Metagross-Mega Hammer Arm vs. 248 HP / 124+ Def Scizor: 186-219 (54.2 - 63.8%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery Mega bulk matters. Besides the only regular Scizor set you should use in OU is the choice band set, which was diminishing during ORAS too. Besides...

    Resource SM OU Viability Ranking Thread

    B- -> B+ Mega shrimp is an underrated threat as a DD sweeper. A great attack stat along with ever useful mold breaker and a decent speed tier makes this an amazing sweeper as well as a stallbreaker with taunt (2hkos everything at +1 except for toxapex). It also resists most priority moves and...

    Resource SM OU Viability Ranking Thread

    Smart players will preserve Lando if they see a Zard in team preview. Besides there's always mediocre but annoying toxapex which lives both +1 EQ and tpunch. And scarfers just seal the deal. The result, Zard never sweeps. There's very little reason to run it over other megas. It's brother ZardY...
