    XY OU It's Stronger Than Mawile

    When 1(k) Isn't Enough...

    Hello everyone, I have been on Smogon for a while, and have posted more frequently in the recent months, and have gotten better over the years. Today I bring you a UU stall team, which even I did not expect to make, but why not? The idea was a stall team with a core of Mega...

    Ubers Aegislash

    Overview ######## While Aegislash has a good defensive typing and an ability that allows it to switch between great bulk and power, it has several flaws that prevent it from doing its job consistently. While its signature move, King's Shield, lets it switch forms and check physical attackers...

    Insert Generic RMT Title For OU Team

    This is a team made by me and other people who helped I'm not giving credit to. It started as an offensive team but soon became a balanced or even bulky offense team, a little of both really. I will try to be as detailed as possible in this RMT, but i'll obviously miss something extremelly...

I'll give mine first: I asked my opponent if Thundurus was ok (back right after he got banned) without knowing anything of Smogon or tiers, he said that it was Uber now, and...

    Screw the Suspect Test

    So I'm trying to hit 2000 so I can vote to keep Sleep Clause in the best tier. This is probably my best team, and I'm at about 1850 right now (literally 1849 lol) and I'm staying in that 1845-1860 range. Anyway, I don't want to bore anyone with teambuilding so onto the team. Palkia @...
