Just to add something, Ice Fang Hippowdon is definantly not counter to Chomp, he gets absolutely slaughtered by a subchomp due to accuracy (just had it happen to me with it missing twice in a row on a 1% hp Chomp with a sub up, and it's bloody common). It exemplifies the whole problem with...

It would vary because it goes through about 10,000 babies from the information entered, so it determines the result from 'actual' results and not from pure theory (as in the program would be flipping a coin 10 times to determine the chance of heads/tails instead of using pure mathematics to...

With 2 layers of toxic spikes it badly poisons instead of normal poison (aka it's the same as hitting with Toxic as opposed to poison from say poison sting).

If you're going down the route of full SS immunity I highly suggest a strong priority move (I use a specs Lucario Vacuum Wave), you'll probably be lacking pokemon with huge speed (there's uhh, Garchomp, I think that's it), you need to be able to rip through those Infernapes and Weaviles and...

The problem with that method is that it doesn't work if the Garchomp user decides to use a Dragon attack besides Outrage. With Explosion, it can be countered by Ghost types and after you blow up that pokemon poses no more threat to your opponent, while a Garchomp locked into Outrage (with...

You don't have to make every pokemon in a sandstorm team immune to it (it's up to personal preference there), and it is possible to make a team that's immune to sandstream without any glaring weaknesses, although you have to make good use of resistances (ie: you need to have something that can...

Remember, Garchomp's tier status is not affected in the slightest by how it will perform in Ubers, it may end up not seeing the light of day very often, such as Wob and normal Deoxys and may be outclassed completely there, but all that matters for its tier status is if its too unbalancing for...

Drops you down to 1/4 speed (other boosts/drops are still applied).

He can switch to something that can setup.

I know that was posted a while ago and some of its already been covered but I really wanted to refute a lot of those points.

Well unless you wanna do 'multiple Garchomp/Salamence clause' it's still a valid point, as without species clause teams of those could potentially run rampant and be imbalanced.

Any status besides sleep or freeze Wobb doesn't give a crap about. Here's what I've done against any non-sleep/freeze status Poke X used status Y Wobb used Encore Wobb used Safeguard switch to Sub/Spore/BD/BP Smeargle Poke X used status Y, but it failed gg Also with Explosion, chances are good...

The implication behind 'Imagine fighting 2-6 X' is, that there are several pokemon where a mis-prediction (Tyranitar and Salamence for good examples) or sheer luck (Garchomp, I run a fully defensive Hippowdon with Ice Fang, and the subdance set still makes me scared because I could easily end up...

With Wobb, you can do it on more than choice'd ground attacks with the 'Zard example. You can encore and use that to allow more situations for that setup then hoping they use a choice'd attack your setup pokemon is immune to. It's possible without Wobb, but far easier. Sorry for stealing your...

The point with that 5 Chomp 1 Ttar team, is sand veil+brightpowder by what I can see. You bring in your counter, you miss an attack (with 5 chomps that'll happen eventually), your counter gets killed, unless you want to pack your team with multiple Garchomp counters.

Metagross learns Icy Wind via Emerald tutor move.

Well, it's like any other game for Shedinja, wait until you think there's nothing to kill him left, then watch him rape. The thing in ubers compared to OU is no sandstream/snow warning dominance, so the odds are far higher that the weather wont kill him.

It seems perfectly feasable to test the pokemon out this way. We don't really have to make any drastic changes to the tiers to test these ubers out as we can just play using them in non-ladder battles on Shoddy, the only obstacle is you'd have to get a large group of people who'll play the...

Latias isn't better defensively statistically than Blissey (nobody can argue that Blissey isn't the best taker of special hits in the game really), it's more the fact that it has pretty good offensive ability to back its walling up, which Blissey and Cresselia (the 2 main special walls I see)...

Well I reckon Kyogre would also be on the definantly uber list as it hits as hard as anything already on the definantly uber list and it has stuff like scarfed Water Spouts to make up for any power lost making up on its speed. Also, while I know your thoughts on the subject, Arceus should be...
