    ORAS OU Trying to Perfect a Rain Team

    I wasn't too happy to choose a Pokemon that really is one of the OU Pokemon, one of those ones you see everywhere. But it does work, and I didn't realise the removal of Scizor had removed my main fighter against Fairies. I haven't breeded my own yet (though I'm on my way to doing so), but I have...

    ORAS OU Trying to Perfect a Rain Team

    Oh, I guess they've fallen out of popularity since I last played competitively. Anyway, I've been really considering what to replace my Umbreon with (if I replace it at all), and it's basically come down to a few contenders. 1. The Gogoat on my Alternatives list. If I'm going to continue...

    ORAS OU Trying to Perfect a Rain Team

    I can't put Defog on Scizor, sorry. It requires a Pokemon with Defog all the way back from Gen IV, which I could probably do if I tried, but that's too much effort. I can use Swampert as my mega instead though, thanks for the advice, I have no idea what to expect with the new megas. I'm not...

    ORAS OU Trying to Perfect a Rain Team

    This may have been a little misleading - 'perfect' isn't really the right word, but I have been editing this team for half a year now, and I just can't decide on this. I'd appreciate any advice, on my Lead and Tank Pokemon in particular. This team is one that is currently in my copy of X but...

    Azumarill isn't underrated in my eyes. Actually, I've seen it so much I thought it was overused. Noivern over Flygon? Alright then, I've locked Noivern now. I don't actually have Metagross or Skarmory. I was just making suggestions. I've been half-sweeped by Metagross before, but I've fallen in...

    Well it was discussed earlier that Drought weakens Water-type moves significantly, so much so that even Hydro Pump can't 1HKO it. Then Solarbeam happens. I've tested Rock Slide a few times though. It's incredibly, incredibly useful. I'd rather take it. After being sweeped by a Flygon and a wave...

    Hm. I have it changed to Dark Pulse for now. However, how do you suggest I deal with Mega Charizard Y? Basically, which of my Pokemon should learn a Rock-type move?

    Oh, it has Drought... See, I'd just decided to screw OCD and add a useful Gen I - V Pokemon as a better wall (and unfortunately lose Wish)... I won't change my list just yet, I have Skarmory and Metagross as options currently but Sylveon's still good so it can stay for now. My Protean Greninja...

    X/Y (Newbie) Competitive Team

    For Scizor, the problem is that my team is a team I'm using in-game, not in Showdown. Therefore I can't get a Scizor with Defog, I'd need a bug Pokemon with it taught from Gen IV. As for Greninja, I prefer Scald as it's more reliable and the burning is very useful. Again, my Greninja is...

    I'm inclined towards keeping Mega Scizor, so I'll take your advice and bulk up the moveset and EVs. Which move should be replaced with Swords Dance? To me, Pursuit is the replaceable move.

    X/Y (Newbie) Competitive Team

    Hmm... I'd just like to say that OCD can be a really inconvenient barrier sometimes. I'll admit I had no idea of Defog's effects. When it was introduced in Gen IV, I saw it as a 'useless' move that was only for progression within the game. So I simply dismissed it. Now it seems like it would be...

    Thanks. I'll get Draco Meteor for Noivern, although I've never been a fan of Focus Blast. I'll also get a Life Orb for her. I'll have to breed a few more Goomys for Hydration, my only leveled-up Goodra has Sap Sipper and I have no Sliggoo Friend Safaris. There's just something I'm not certain...

    X/Y (Newbie) Competitive Team

    As you may have gathered, I'm a newbie at competitive battling. I recently started since it was made to be so easy. Thanks to everyone, I've put together a Rain team thanks to Heliolisk being the mascot of my team. If anyone could help me with movesets and maybe change some Pokemon, that would...
