RU Escavalier. I am so amazed. Escavalier always seemed broken to me with it's ability to OHKO or 2HKO the vast majority of the metagame. It lacks coverage, but WHO CARES?! Megahorn is honestly all it needs. Even resists take massive damage. To put it in perspective, Sableye, one of the best...

Anyone considered a Sub+Hone Claws set? With Roost, I can use it as a fairly annoying set-up sweeper, and usually knock off as many foes from the opponents team as turns outrage keeps going. Mono-Attacker: Kyurem-Z @ Leftovers/Lum Berry Trait: Teravolt EVs: 52 HP/252 Atk/16 Def/188 Spe Nature...

No Tornadus-T can survive LO Jolteon Thunder. However, for what it's worth, with 176 EVs in HP it can survive LO Jolteon Volt Switch.

Outclassed by Landorus? Sorry to break it to you guys, but that is just NOT true. You'll only see the speed tier as "bad" if you keep comparing it to Landorus. In truth, it's an awesome speed tier since you can out-speed base 90s such as Lucario, as well as the Rotom formes. Stop using it as a...

Oops, meant 24 def EVs. I worry about Energy Ball because any smart Chandelure won't flee, because it knows it'll get OHKOed by pursuit. And HP [Fighting] isn't a very common Chandelure move, since it already has 4MSS. Not saying HP [Fighting] isn't important, just I'm making Energy Ball the...

Aromatherapy's very important as otherwise Sableye potentially gives me trouble, I take T-Wave for the 30% immobility, not the speed drop.

I dug up an old team of mine recently, and thought I should share it, as it was a fairly successful team. I peaked around #50, I don't remember, as it was before the ladder reset, and as such I don't have a screenshot. On to the team building process (Or what I remember of it, at least). I...

I worked a long time on this set for my team: Tyranitar @ Leftovers Trait: Sand Stream EVs: 252 HP/96 Atk/24 Def/64 SpA/72 SpD Nature: Sassy -Stealth Rock -Pursuit -Fire Blast -Ice Beam OK, this set took me almost two hours to craft. 252 EVs are placed into HP to maximize bulk, while 28 EVs...

Love this team, I've used a band linoone several times myself! Anyways, could you explain why you use skuntank? I tried it, and I find it inferior to absol as a trapper. Is it the bulk, typing, movepool, or what?

Gabite @ Choice Band Trait: Sand Veil Nature: Jolly EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe -Outrage -Earthquake -Stone Edge -Dragon Claw Gabite can sponge a hit from Manectric with ease, sans Hidden Power [Ice], which this particular one doesn't carry, and retaliate with a stab Choice Band Earthquake.

Pillsbury, U-Turn is NOT the same as dry passing. If the foe switches, you get to see what they switch for and switch to a counter.

The Gyarados is incredible! (They all are, really, just that's my fav)

I just give enemy Amoonguss a CB from floatzel and be done with them, same with Miltank. Haven't seen any Vileplume yet. I already have the Amoonguss-Vileplume tradeoff under possibilities, but I'm not fond of it. Cryogonal's defense is the reason it makes me hesitant. I gave it a quick spin...

Just a thought, but Tentacruel seems to have poor synergy with the rest of your team, so I recommend using a different spinner. You have no Pokemon that resist ground, unless Ditto counts, and Deoxys-A will never be switching in except on a death so it doesn't count as a Psychic resist. Toxic...

Then how come they include very good Pokemon (In the tier) for research week?

Thank you so much WhiteDMist! Yeah, Sneasel is definitely my worst member. I was already considering physically defensive set on Miltank, this just makes me lean more heavily towards doing so. Unfortunately, without the special defense EVs, Magmortar rips apart my team. I'm still very seriously...

Umm... Pillsbury, U-Turn is one of the key reasons to use Mienshao. U-Turn also allows you to hit switch-ins and switch to a counter, something switching out can't do.

Have you tried that set, Pwnemon? I just did, but I found Taunt works better over Stone Edge. I also ended up with an EV spread of 252 HP/4 Atk/252 Spe Jolly. It worked decently like that, but as your set is currently posted, it needs some work. Try this: SubPass Mienshao @ Leftovers...

This art is absolutely incredible. So much personality. Do you think you could make me a shiny Linoone with shades? I understand if you can't/won't but it would be incredible if you would. It would also help if you PMed if and when you finish it.

EBeast: Well, the thing is, this team was built for Floatzel and Sneasel. http://www.smogon.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3465559&page=2 -- I'm testing them for research week. Jynx is an incredible Pokemon, but a bit too classic for me. Also, Floatzel creams any non-scarf Jynx. Very good...
