aromatherapy is another good idea, and yea its hard to put it over hp fire since that's necessary against incoming forretresses trying to spin (Gengar can't block against variants with payback). And even those without payback are annoying to fight against with FB.

I noticed you are running Surf on Starmie (I'm assuming over like Recover). That's another pretty good idea since it probably has equal situational use as Recover (or maybe even more)

Has anyone experimented with Hitmonlee? Good attack/spdef, unique speed tier, good ability, good movepool... I feel he could be viable somewhere..

Pushed Guts record up to 1604 1612: (didn't save earlier replays but had some good matches - started laddering from like the mid 1400s~ if that's fine) https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen4ou-1982344714 https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen4ou-1982351548-3luox9rcuw2d0mfuo87lz4q515zhm12pw...

Cool team, I especially like the Donphan set which has a 35% chance with Magnitude to hit about as hard or harder than EQ while also having triple the PP. Just a good idea overall. However I now want to propose some changes that can help address some of your threat list: Primary proposal...

I think Starmie can OHKO or heavily damage Scizor with Hydro Pump, while resisting Bullet Punch. Overall never really had an issue with SD Scizor on the ladder. As for risking the Iron Head flinch if Tyranitar is at high health, sometimes I will opt for U-turning on it first, sacking some one...

awyp I like the SpA investment you have offered because there has been situations where I wished I had the ability to KO Scizors at high health with unboosted HP fire to avoid getting blasted with U-turn, so the EVs you offered may help with that. Thanks!!

S P E C I A L O F F E N S E B Y T O G A Q U E S T Here is a team I quickly cooked up in the team-builder and found it to be quite effective. It managed to peak the ladder at least. The team is a highly offensive team that utilizes techniques such as breaking and baiting to help set-up...

Is there still a ladder for the UU or Uber metagames? Do people still consistently play these metagames?

Hi I got Platinum Brave for the DPP ladder achievements. Can you update?

Claiming Platinum Brave. I literally went on a huge win streak with the same team from like the high 1400s (I probably should've kept count for the win streak achievement as well but oh well) Here's some replays on my last few matches to the top...

I just thought of this just now which could be a viable set (I'm surprised I haven't seen it mentioned at all in the dex or in any form but it seems like it could be effective): Scizor @ Leftovers Ability: Technician EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 SpD Adamant Nature - Substitute - Knock Off - U-turn...
