Tyranitar gets SpD boost from Sandstorm.

This is interesting to read considering my initial thoughts were that our metagame was somewhat similar to others around the world. What are the "rules" in other countries such as Italy? I wonder...

This is so amazing, I want to cry.

Alright, I went ahead and changed the OP. I am still testing Deoxys-S. Are you suggesting that I run a 252 HP / 252 SpD on Gastrodon?

I completely agree with IronBullet knowing his Poke shit. I would never replace Heatran on this team, EVER. He serves as a multi-purpose Poke that I find him impossible to replace. I don't mind having Heatran in the rain because usually I will eliminate the opposing Poke's by abusing boosted...

Just as my team (like you mentioned), that was a pretty solid critique. About the two choices you gave me about Gastrodon, what should be more preferred assuming Gastrodon is relegated as a late game cleaner, Earth Power or Ice Beam? As of right now, my Dragon absorber is mainly Heatran as he...

I wouldn't really outline my gameplan here, but pretty much is choke the team with status and entry hazards. The Pokes can all wall with the exceptions of Latios and Deoxys. I can switch Gastrodon for a bulky Scizor because the type of Pokes that I like are bulky to withstand any attack outside...

Oh, ok I can see what you're saying. So instead of playing suicide lead with Deoxys, you're suggesting I replace Trick with Taunt and play Deoxys more conservatively?

That works. Haha, I'm not sure if I can pull of a successful ADHD playstyle (hahahaha)! Feel free to PM me when you're free so we can get some testing sessions in!

I can't really tell what's wrong (or right for that matter) with it just yet because I haven't been able to test it the way I would like. Just my style of testing is I would like to play the way the you would play using this team. If I use my style, I can't get the most out of the team. For...

Porii, I've tried your team in a couple of matches and I still can't manage to master it. PM me if you have time to show me a couple of practice matches so I can maximize the output of your team during my testing.

Wouldn't you want to run Belly Drum on Smeargle so Zoroark, Lucario, and Dragonite can get extra "punches" to their attacks? It's kind of weird having two Shell Smash Pokes (I kind of understand why you have to SmashPass teams to fulfill the name, but Belly Drum just seems better IMO).

Running Scarf is for Trick because once an entry hazard Poke is tricked, they are pretty much rendered useless and just dead weight for the opposing team.

This might be a little jumbled, but here goes. For Deoxys-S, I can try your suggestions, but the Deoxys-S set is for those pesky stallers and entry hazard Pokes. Sorry I forgot to mention that in the OP, I could go ahead and edit it to make that more clear. Just consider the OP to be a rough...

Alright I updated the original post. I want more critiques, maybe a replacement for Gastrodon? I was thinking Swampert or Feraligatr. This team has great potential and can get me a ton of ladder points, but unfortunately, I keep getting haxed to death or disconnected because of my shit internet.

Alright, I'm beginning my testing right now and I was wondering how you deal with status-ers and what strategy you try to employ during matches. I want to get your strategies so I can employ them during my testing and give you suggestions that would be easy for you to implement (if you wish to...

Yeah under like 500 different aliases.

I think one Poke can change the whole dynamic of your team. I tried running a bulky Scizor in replacement for your Abomasnow and it is much better, but it would be weird telling you to switch Abomasnow for Scizor since it would take the source of hail out.

Not bad! I'm glad I was able to help even though I'm quite new to the competitive scene. I am a quick, quick learner however. With Gliscor, don't deal with him directly with Abomasnow. Use him as your hidden dagger against sand teams. To deal with the sand stream bros Ttar and Gliscor, use...

Hey, I'll give this team a test and a rate tomorrow (for me) after I finishing updating my thread since it is asking for a revamp.
