  1. RMT: BPain

    I'm not a good team rater at all, but I think a Mr. Mime could work wonders for your team. Soundproof prevents any type of Perish Song or Roar PHazing, he can pass Calm Minds or Barriers, and he can use Encore to force the opponent to switch. Make sure to either pass him Def, or have him use...

  4. Second team. Gogogo rate.

    Made some of the recommended changes. I'm still debating removing TBolt on Starmie and doing the Discharge/Toxic thing on Porygon2.
  5. Second team. Gogogo rate.

    My second fully competitive team. So far, it's been doing well; however, I believe it could be better. This team is a nice mix between defense and offense, but if I lose my sweeper, it usually ends up with Zapdos attempting to stall out/kill the opponent. Bronzong @ Macho Brace Ability...
  6. First team after 4 month hiatus. Critizise pl0x.

    Decided to go with Porygon2, as he gives my team much more safety, even after something dies.
  7. First team after 4 month hiatus. Critizise pl0x.

    Edited for some of the recommended changes. Left Psychic off of Starmie, as it's coverage is pretty meh, and recover helps a lot. Changed Gyara due to a better players advice; however, Bulky Gyara is a potent sweeper and I'me wary of changing him. Left Uxie as he is for now. Still trying to...
  8. First team after 4 month hiatus. Critizise pl0x.

    Made the recommend Magnezone change; however, I'm wary of making some of the other changes recommended by the above poster. I don't agree with most of his post but, most of the time, I go with the advice of more experienced players. He's only joined this January, but I have no idea if he's...
  9. First team after 4 month hiatus. Critizise pl0x.

    Yea. I don't really see a replacement for SR on Uxie though. Maybe Protect, but that's all I can see.
  10. First team after 4 month hiatus. Critizise pl0x.

    Made the recommended changes. A bit wary about changing HP to Fire on Magnezone, as Swampert walls me pretty bad if Ape drops. Did a bit of play testing (Didn't get much. Guild Wars monthly tournament was today, good stuff) and it seemed to do well. The lead worked out amazing and sometimes...
  11. First team after 4 month hiatus. Critizise pl0x.

    While the Metagross set looks amazing (Will keep it in mind for later teams) this team was built around AgilityGross and his potent late-game sweeping capabilities (Good typing and only 1 turn needed to set-up). If the more experience players truly think that this change will improve the team...
  12. First team after 4 month hiatus. Critizise pl0x.

    Made the lead change (Didn't cahnge the picture because I'm lazy.) Slightly wary about changing Starmie, as the EVs I have allow it to beat Zapdos, who this team has trouble with.
  13. First team after 4 month hiatus. Critizise pl0x.

    Burnpsy: I know that, hence the "This lead is bad" part. I do realize that Pursuit is pretty nasty. I've actually only ran into a few Focus Sash leads, and most of them only set-up SR, then switch or die. Feel free to suggest a replacement. Zam switches out of this team easily and fixes up the...
