So I gave this Nuzlocke Challenge a shot and tried it out on my SoulSilver yesterday - actually it's quit a fun so far, however, I already lost the first member of my team yesterday thanks to a CH :/ -) I play on set -) I wanted to avoid PokeCenters, however this can be a bit of a pain since...

Hey there! :D I'm thinking about doing a Nuzlocke (not sure witch edition I'll use though) - however, I'd like to make it as hard as possible. In the opening post I found these suggestion: -) play on set (well... I always do, so no big challenge here) -) no use of Pokecenters, instead I'll have...

Quick question - is a team based around Swift Swim Sweepers doomed to fail in the current meta or could it be a viable strategy? Something like Kingra, Kabutops and Ludicolo in combination with something to set up rain plus two additional pokes to abuse rain.

Updates: -) changed Infernape's Life Orb into an Expert Belt -) replaced Blaziken with Mienshao ... Mienshao @ Life Orb Ability: Regenerator EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe Nature: Naive - U-Turn - Hi Jump Kick - Grass Knot - Stone Edge (placeholder for HP Ice) ... Blaziken felt a bit...

Thanks for the reply - looking at your team tough it shows that you use a set of 4 physical and 2 special sweepers ... is there a reason why you're not using a straight 6 physicals or 6 specials team? Running a team with both types included seems like you would be forced to switch more often...

I'm currently trying to build a team similar as described above, I just wanted to check if someone already has some experience with this style of play .... especially compared with Dual Screens, since both teams seem pretty similar (one uses 6 sweepers while the other one uses 5 sweepers and a...

True thing, however I'm not too scared of that Ice weakness actually ... there aren't many pokes I can think of (beside Cloyster) than run STAB Ice moves and aren't vulnerable against Dragon or Fighting moves. Getting a analysis would be great to be honest, but since this team changes about...

Yeah I thought the same thing actually, Stealth Rocks would be really great for a team like this. However, I'm not to fancy about Deoxys-S, since it's pretty though to get in real I find. I thought about adding Tyranitar and already had a Gliscor as my 6th poke ... not sure if I should re-add...

Thanks for your replies! As mentioned in my opening post this team is mainly for battling with my friends, they're fine with Blaziken as long it won't run Speed Boost. Yeah I wasn't sure about my Scizor setup anyway, so I think I'll use your input and change it a bit. Removing U-Turn hurts a...

Hey there - I’ve ever been a great fan of offensive teams, so I thought I’ll give HO a shot ;) Quick note – this team isn’t meant for online playing or WiFi, just for battling with some of my friends in real once a week or so, pretty casual and not realy go-for-the-throat-competitive you...

Nice team! Have you considered changing Celebi into Ferrothorn? Not beeing damaged by SS, Leech Seed+(even more) Spikes seems like it could be a great addition.

Done - been a bit in a hurry when I made the initial post. Hope this should be enough.

Dual Screens Offense Inspired by Wario is OSSIM's and FCBarcelona's teams I decided to give Double Screen HO a shot. I'm pretty new to competitive battling, so every input you guys can give much would be appreciated ;) @ Light Clay Trait: Levitate EVs: 252 HP / 4 SAtk / 252...
