Thank you Jimbon. I love how the ones to comment on this team are some of the best battlers here. It gives me some assurance that I'm doing something right. The Politoed spread has been lacking a bit, true. I was looking for a spread like yours, so in that goes. About Keldeo, I've always...

I love using Latias, true that. Landorus-T is a fantastic part of the core, and without it there's a large Scizor weakness. What should I do about that? In the meantime, Chople has tested well, but I'll need a few more games to verify its usefulness. Protect will be going on Jirachi, thanks to...

The Chople Berry idea is intriguing, I do agree. I will most certainly test that out. Onto the Jirachi, I wanted to try the Subrachi so many people hyped on another site. It works much like SubKyurem. I can change up the spread right away, sure thing. The Speed hasn't really mattered when...

Introduction Hello, Smogon. You may have seen me around in the OU Metagame and OU Analyses sections, but I have largely just lurked prior to this post. I've had experience with PS and PO for almost two years now, and I had the honor of my first battle being against The Pillsbury Doughboy and...

Here I was, worried about using a Low Kick Ttar bred in 5th Gen and a Dreamyard Latios. Now I can rest easy. Thanks for the info. This format is better than last year. Now Excadrill has to decide on Iron Head or X-Scissor. Question: Has Thundurus-T gained any merits for use? I see that Torn-T...

That was the easiest battle ever. Your opponent was terrible. Not proof that it works, imo. Give us a more quality opponent.

The set needs some work, that needs to be said at least. How much have you tested it? It's like you threw it together on a simulator team builder and theorymon'd, because Wish without Protect when you try to heal yourself doesn't work too well. Also, 252 HP before max Def, honestly. Your spread...

Please make Garchomp a Jolly nature ASAP. Getting outsped by what you are trying to revenge kill or speedtie with is silly. Also, Tornadus really ought to have a Timid nature with the 4 Atk EVs shifted to SDef or Def. U-turn's minimal damage output is not worth losing that much of a drop in...

Since you don't want Jirachi, I suggest Chansey or Blissey, your choice. Each can learn Stealth Rock, Wish, and Heal Bell all together in one set, as well as replacing Jirachi as secondary Tornadus-T and Thundurus-T checks. Set: Chansey/Blissey @ Eviolite (Chansey)/Leftovers (Blissey) Trait...

Small fix. "-Base 99 speed unfortunately means its outspaced by +1 Salamence and Scarf Landorus-T/Thundurus-T" This ought to be Scarf Landorus-I instead (101 Spe) rather than Scarf Landorus-T (91 Spe), which it outspeeds easily. Easy typo I guess, but it helps greatly in the analysis...

I used this set back before BW2 came out. Very effective with Scizor around, and even moreso in this meta thanks to Ttar's decline. Really, it is a simple set without much prediction required (Protect, obviously), but you may want to fit Psyshock on it to beat Keldeo and Terrakion, which is one...

It seems like you've incorporated an anti-weather core within this team without knowing it. Landorus-Sand, Tentacruel/Shaymin-Rain, and Dragonite-Sun. Very nice. I like your use of Special Landorus, but you can use a Life Orb and still bluff a Choice Set. You get no recoil thanks to Sheer...

One fix - The White Herb restores lowered stats. Mental Herb gets rid of Taunt. Accelgor wants the Mental Herb.

Very solid team. Just, on Keldeo, you'll definitely want HP Ghost over HP Dark, as it attains perfect coverage over near-perfect coverage while still hitting want you want to hit super-effectively. Toxicroak and Heracross resist HP Dark, and Toxicroak would check you even more, plus you don't...

That is, if you put that Pokemon to sleep. If it Rested and hasn't woken up, Relic Song can still put something asleep, and you'll be fine.
