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 I've been off of Smogon for a hot minute and a lot of things are different from the last time I played. One thing I did notice is that Mega Gyarados was BL and it made me wonder why it is no longer worthy of being in simply the OU status. So maybe I give a team that shows it is still good in...
Thx 8-Bit Luster! I noticed while using this team that StealthRocks did cause trouble but didn't think it would be that bad. The Groudon changes might help break some sashes and multiscales. I wanted to keep SuperPower on Scizor but I guess Defog is better in the overall game. I'll change HP to...

Team Building Process
I wanted to try off a team utilizing Palkia and decided to make Groudon part of the team since his Primal form resists Fairy. Scizor was then added since he takes care Xerneas after Geomancy and Bullet Punch does about half and any fire attack can be...
1. When ever you play a match are you one to take risk, do the best play or get inside your opponents head?
2. Are there any pokemon that have been banned currently or have been in past generations that any of you felt were unreasonable?

Wow. Thanks a lot.i really noticed with Aegislash that he has some problems taking hits and I wasn't sure what to change his ev spread to. Yours seems way better and I hope it will help out. Everything is is good too and I'll go try it out and see how they work out.
Psyshock was for any poison types for Sylveon and Fighting types for Kangashkan. Shadow Ball was for Ghost types and was hard hitting no matter what when I tried it out.
