I just wanted to update you. I switched Heatran to an Modest Analytic Choice Specs Magnezone set with 252HP/252SpA/4SpD, and I replaced Iron Head on Garchomp with Stealth Rocks and it's cleanly gotten my StrokeOfHail profile into the 1400's with only a couple losses. I'm gonna see if it can...

I would have to put Defog on Latias I think if I removed Scizor. Or I would have to move Stealth Rock to Garchomp if I replace Heatran. I could probably test this though as Magnezone could come into Togekiss (though fearing Fire Blast/Aura Sphere). Perhaps Magnezone would help against Skarmory...

Magnezone is a good pokemon in BDSP OU, yes. Sometimes, it even runs a Choice Specs Analytic set. Latias is good for setting up on it though. Sometimes, I'll lure with Scizor and use U-Turn on a predicted Magnezone switchin. Another thing is that 1/3 (with rocks) or 2/3 (without) of the time...

INTRODUCTION AND EXPLANATION OF WHY I AM POSTING THIS TEAM This team has taken me from to the 1500s and has beaten top 50 players on the ladder (like Simmal 097, Keyblade Enjoyer, and Joy Bangla) including two who were in the Rank 1 spot at the times of their defeats (grossebaffe and Emma...

Happy with 3rd RMT more than others I have created :)

I've finally gone through the gauntlet with your suggestions, and having Skarmory be more Defensive has been more prominent in usefulness for my team. I made changes unique to my team's needs, and I helped it take on one threat more in particular. Skarmory @ Rocky Helmet / Leftovers Ability...

Currently making possible changes to Skarmory on Third RMT

First, I would like to say, "thank you for taking the time to rate my team." Your suggestions have left me with some great ideas and choices to make. I, especially, like Thunder Wave and Will-O-Wisp allowing better sweep chances over Toxic Stalling. I am going to try out all your sets at once...

Before I start: Alright, I kind of want to take you guys through the process of making this team. I'm going to start with the team-building process, move on to the individual Pokemon, and finish up with a team overview and threat list. Let's see how well that goes, and see if I can stick to...

Happy with 2nd RMT

Hey, thanks for the rate. Because of the chance for Belly Drum Azumarill to set up on Weavile (now Latios - same thing if I'm locked into Draco Meteor), I opted for 44 Spe EVs on Rotom-W from Perrenial's suggestion. Weavile is now a Scarf Latios, but Pursuit is a great suggestion to revenge...

Reviewing suggestions in 2nd RMT

Thanks for the rate, and I like your suggestions, but I've noticed a major flaw by taking in all of your suggestions. Abilities such as Mold Breaker and Terravolt with Ground moves. Namely, Earthquake, and Earth Power. Choice Scarf Excadrill and Choice Scarf Kyurem-B pose a huge threat to my...

bump. and I'm thinking of switching Weavile with Choice Scarf Latios

This team has been quite fun so far and has me asking what could be done to make it better. I really enjoy using it, and I would love to hear your opinions on how it could be improved (pokemon/moves/evs replaced and so on). AT A GLANCE [-- they aren't showing up :( --]...
