That is a VERY interesting set. I never thought to use Hydro Pump and I've never actually faced one of these before, but it would interesting to meet in battle. I like it. Now, I had one of these back in the day, and you don't see them very often, but one of my fav Pokemon ever, Ludicolo...

"OK Smogon people, I come to ask can you guys unban blaze blaziken and excadrill without sandstorm? I mean it's annoying being refused usages of pokes i actually like because people are to dumb to decide for themselves that these things AREN'T UBER if the ability isn't the broken one simple...

I think that it's worth mentioning Salamence and Dragonite, as they both resist all of Scizor's moves, and both Pokemon normally carry a Fire-type move, normally being Fire Punch, Fire Blast or Flamethrower.

44 / 80 / 55 / 45 / 80 / 51 / 360 Comparison w/ Necturna: 64 / 120 / 100 / 85 / 120 / 81 / 570 -20 / -40 / -45 / -40 / -40 / -30 / -210 I took Pikachu's stats and adjusted them a tad. I feel as Miniturna's stats should more reflect Necturna's stats in the form of slightly higher SpD and...

Hey Asterat! I really like your team. It's well thought out and most importantly it's balanced. But a few things to add: I agree with yee that you need Volt Switch on Rotom-W. As annoying as Volt Switch is, you get a free swap to one of your sweepers, making volt switch a great starting...

Good point. Thanks Arctic.

I agree with Lasers that you should use Dragon Pulse over Draco Meteor. As for for your 6th Pokemon issue, here's a potential solution: Togekiss @ Brightpowder Nature: Timid Ability: Serene Grace EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe ~ Air Slash ~ Aura Sphere ~ Nasty Plot ~ Shadow Ball...

Only a few things: ~ In guts abuse, Toxic Orb needs to go. You can't abuse the ability when you're only in for a couple turns and then have to switch out and come back in frail. There's no need for it. ~ I'd list Togekiss as a Check/Counter. Even though it's possible that a Heracross can...

I've used Flygon many-a-time on Shoddy Battle before coming here and I support Sir in his opinion. CB doesn't work. Flygon needs freedom to move and CB doesn't allow it.

Actually, I only have one suggestion and by all means you don't have to take it, but on Jirachi I would use Ice Punch over Fire Punch, for the sole reason of taking out Flying-types and Dragon-types, especially ones faster than Dragonite. You also get the ability-boosted chance of freeze, a 1 in...

First of all, I'll say this: You have a pretty good base to start building with hear. I've never heard of anyone using a Lopunny as a lead, which I find really interesting. In my rate, I'll leave your lead, your Metagross and your Cloyster alone. But we have some work to do here. If you haven't...

What about Toxic Spikes? It doesn't do any initial damage like the aforementioned, but it rather works on poisoning the opponent for damage over time.

One question. When Trick Room is activated, are the priorities also switched around?

Personally, because Drizzle + Swift Swim got banned, should Sand Stream + Sand Rush and Drought + Chlorophyll be banned as well? They both follow the same idea: Automatic Weather + Speed = Broken

What do you suggest I put in place of Foretress?
