Very cool that you used the Z-Splash + Baton Pass combo! Did you pull it off consistently? When I saw Lopunny being available early in USUM, I predicted that it would be the most broken in-game Pokemon ever thanks to that combo, but you're the first person in this thread to mention it.

Sounds like Malamar makes each totem fight a piece of cake? Basically Topsy Turvy all of their aura boosts?

Would you say that this applies to all Dark and Psychic types? I remember another person in this thread mentioning that Alakazam is a bit too frail this time, but most people seem to have much success with Zoroark and Metagross for example. I'm going to use Tyranitar in my playthrough, will...

If USUM is even remotely comparable to S&M (and I think it is), Popplio is the most potent starter. I also see no reason why Gyarados and Magnezone should have lost their S-tier status. I heard you can evolve Magneton even earlier this time, so it might have gotten even better. As for newcomers...

Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but will we have an in-game tier list thread in the foreseeable future?

That doesn't sound good :/ Well I guess there wouldn't have been a way to make it OU by just giving it new moves anyway. My best bet would be giving it Recover and Extreme Speed, then leave it in Normal Type and use a different item.

Quick question: Did Silvally get any better with new move tutor attacks? It bothers me so much that the Pokemon they call "UB killer" can't even kill a single UB.

Hm, I see 2 possibilities to add Naganadel to your team. 1. Drop Alakazam. Both are fast special attackers and Psychic isn't the greatest offensive typing either. On the downside, you now have 3 Pokemon that are weak to ground. 2. Drop Blaziken. Your overall resistance count gets much better...

Alright, 3 more days till USUM, thought I might sign up on Smogon as well! Hello guys :) For my team, I basically have 5 members figured out, but I really can't decide which should be the last one. It's either: Or: - I started by choosing Tyranitar and Zoroark for the playthrough...
