I liked this post, and this is also pretty much what my opinion is. Use whatever move is right for what situations you will most likely be in. In Pokemon, you get Accuracy, Power, or (good/not-negative) Effect - pick two.

I've PM'd Serenity back and am ready to battle whenever he/she is. Serenity beat me. GG :)

I'm not quite sure how Aero takes out 1-2 Pokemon a game if you just leave it in, what with Jirachi and Infernape completely destroying it, along with random trickscarf leads. The lead itself is fine; I am just commenting on your description. Celebi is never going to be staying in long enough...

I would still recommend HP Fire over Flash Cannon as Flash Cannon only hits Tyranitar (who will win regardless of Magnet Rise or not if he has Crunch or anything more powerful). It will actually allow you to kill Scizor before being raped. Standard Scizor hits 222 speed, so you don't really have...

And what did you say?

Wildfire, Mamoswine's need to outspeed Lucario is not to stop a Lucario sweep, but to promote a sweep of its own (who the hell would switch a Mamoswine in on a Lucario? It doesn't resist any of its attacks and with its trash defenses, it will get destroyed). One major problem I see with your...

Bronzong looks good, although I would definitely make the nature Sassy since it turns a great deal of un-STAB'd fire attack 3HKOs into 2HKOs (such as Azelf and Zapdos). I personally like running the 232 HP/252 Attack/22 speed bulky Scizor, or the very very bulky Leftovers set, but that lacks a...

The first line should be "Fire Blast already damages/KOs/etc most Steels..." as you are missing a verb there.

Well, after using a mono-steel team for a tournament on another forum, I found that I rather liked to use steel types. They are amazingly easy to switch in , and can pose a serious offensive threat as well. As it goes, I've assembled some of the more prominent steel types in the game and given...

I think that a LO Rain Dance Modest Kingdra would be more of a problem than the physical version. Clefable is 2HKO'd, and with it being a lead + no recovery, it might be OHKO'd with enough damage. Heatran and Salamence are obviously OHKO'd by Surf and Dragon Pulse respectively. Metagross takes...

The first thing I noticed is that Donphan completely outclasses Sandslash, no matter how you look at it. Donphan beats it in Attack, HP and Defense - the three most important attributes for a physical supporter and can run exactly the same moveset. Putting Donphan in over Sandslash will do...

That's absolutely revolting. What kind of idiot tries to force open a locked door to a Wal-Mart when there is a guy trying to hold them shut? I got pretty pissed when I read that part. That really sounds to me as if the worker is making a mockery of the thing. 'The deals weren't even that...

Think about what you're saying. "Skarmory can wall his team if Magnezone is gone or if skarm carries a shed shell" is completely situational. I know most Skarmory carry SS now, but if the first time Skarm switches out to Blissey, all he has to do is the next time its Skarm vs. Mag, he just...

MASSIVELY EDITED This isn't relevant to the thread at all. Anyways, Salamence with this set is probably the most offensive DD set out there. Fire Blast ensures that Skarmory and Bronzong don't get in your way while Outrage and Earthquake provide the best possible coverage. You could go with...

Alright, for starters, if you are going to use Infernape as a lead, use one of two sets: This one, having already been said, is the standard LeadApe. Infernape@ Focus Sash Naive 64 Atk / 252 SpA / 192 Spe -Fake Out -Stealth Rock/Hidden Power Grass (If zong is using SR) -Fire Blast -Close...

CM Jirachi are actully very common today since very few things counter them, and they destroy as an endgame sweeper. Zapdos and Mence can't do shit to it after a Calm Mind or two and are at least 2HKO'd by Jirachi (which outspeeds both of them if it uses a Timid Nature). True, Crocune is rare...

Poison Heal is the better Breloom ability hands down, and with Platinum, you have access to Poison Heal + Thunder Punch. I don't necessarily like your lead, but if it works for you then I'm not about to change it. Make Bronzong's EV Spread 252 HP / 86 Atk / 80 Def / 92 SpD with a Sassy...

Machamp looks good, and you can survive a Psychic from a Neutral Focus Sash 252 SpA Azelf, so that looks excellent (however Azelf will win if it uses Psychic twice because of Focus Sash). I don't really see the point of Light Screen on Dragonite, seeing as you sacrifice a spot that could be used...

Well, it all comes down to which you would like to do more of: break walls such as Blissey and Skarmory that would otherwise wall you/destroy you, or outspeed DDTar. Again, if you paralyze it, you shouldn't have much of a problem with it at all, but if it breaks through you, you're dead...

If you do end up changing Skymin to Modest (which you probably should), I'd suggest putting Body Slam over Ice Punch on Jirachi. The 60% Paralysis rate will help you slow down faster enemies (especially scarfers) so that Modest Skymin can outspeed them and once enemy Skymin/Salamence are...
