How is HO? I've always been partial to bulky offense, but I'm interested to see if there are any successful HO teams floating around. like xtra$hine's birdspam from last generation, how have teams like that adapted and changed in this meta? I know birdspam is not as viable anymore, but I feel...

How is stall currently dealing with stallbreaker Tapu Fini? I'm enjoying stall for the first time this generation, but Tapu Fini is both annoying to stall and common on the ladder. I'm running a Zapdos on my current team, but the most it can usually do is just scare it out with the threat of a...

cool

I am seeing a lot of Liepard on the top European and Australian teams, and I am wondering why they chose it over other Prankster users. Sableye is a better Fake Out user, the only thing I can see Liepard has over it is Thunder Wave. Even with that, Thundurus is faster and is a much better...

+6 252+ SpA Fire Gem Flash Fire Heatran Helping Hand Eruption vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Dry Skin Paras in sun on a critical hit: 1831620-2154852 (16651090.9 - 19589563.63%) -- guaranteed OHKO does more than your sig

Faster Sprites? Where do people get the animated sprites that seem to be sped up? I get all of my animated sprites from Pokecheck, and I want to know where the faster ones are from because I think they are cool. Sprite from Pokecheck: (the ones I use) Faster sprite: (ones I am...

Team Preview I'll keep this short. The point of this team is to use Tyranitar, Keldeo, Latios, Celebi, and Heatran to clear out any threats and attempt to bring in Landorus safely. If I can remove things like Mamoswine, Gastrodon, and Blissey, Landorus can and will sweep the floor with...

If you were to go up against a serious OU player, your team would not fare well. At all. Seeing as your current OU ranking is <1200, you are most likely not battling any good players; in the replay you posted in the OP, your opponent was not exactly the best OU battler. Also, any rain team...

Bulk Up / Amnesia Salac Scrafty Scrafty @ Salac Berry Trait: Shed Skin EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd / 4 Def Jolly Nature - Bulk Up - Amnesia - Drain Punch - Crunch This set is great if you play it right, it is important not to send Scrafty in too early when things like Zapdos and Crobat are alive...

Spike Stacking Introduction I usually play RU, but I've recently been trying out UU, and it's a lot of fun. A lot of my favorite Pokemon are good in UU, and it is one of the least centralized metagames I've played. This team is the one I've been using for a bit, It relies on Froslass to lay...

Hey, thanks for the advice. I'm definitely adjusting Pinsir, idk how I overlooked that. About the Sceptile, I put some thought into Giga Drain, and I actually changed my mind as I was typing this and had to go back and edit the post. lol. I am going to run Giga Drain, mostly because it gives me...

I love the Strokes! Is This It and Angles are my fav albums

Hey guys, thanks for the rate! Since you both suggested Druddigon, I knew it would be a good choice, but after reading the Smogon analysis, wow, this thing would be great on this team. If I am going to use it as a setup sweeper to demolish teams mid to late-game, I might ditch the Choice Band...

Threat List Absol: Swords Dance: Craw dodges Sucker Punches with Sub and can KO with Waterfall, he fears Superpower though. Definitely a top threat. All-Out Attacker: ^ Accelgor: Offensive: More of a threat than it should be, Moltres handles sets without HP Rock Spikes Lead: Aero can...

Heavy Hyper Offensive Offense! Nobody ever reads introductions lol, so I'll keep this one short. When Cresselia finally left RU, I could enjoy it again. I built a team with the help of this post by Limitless, and the first "draft" of the team I made to test was very effective. I've made numerous...

God damn it why does Murkrow have to exist... Thanks for the rate guys, and thanks for helping me patch up my MixKrow weakness. I'm keeping Slowpoke and Scraggy, and I was hesitant about changing Shellder, but after 2 matches I knew it was a keeper. The OP will be updated in a few minutes...

The Regenerators #3 1720 I also got over 1800, but no pic :( This team is a weatherless offensive team that benefits from the Regenerator ability, which heals 1/3 of a pokemon's health whenever switching out. Half of the pokemon on this team have this ability, which helps me maintain...

I've been using a Shellder on an LC team of mine lately, and it makes an excellent late-game cleaner, as it plows through almost the whole tier except for maybe 2 or 3 pokemon with essentially two 125 BP moves. I use it with Scraggy, with one of them sweeping early-game to weaken the opponent...

Unburden does not activate when you use Acrobatics with a Flying Gem. EDIT: It does activate, the log just doesn't show it. No speed boost :( This is the Drifloon in the above pic

Thanks for the reply Enix, but I tried replacing Pawniard earlier, and that didn't work. Pawniard is an important force on the team, as under normal circumstances, he can take 2-3 pokemon out in the beginning of the match and weaken the enemy team. If this team wasn't built around Pawniard, I...
