    Resource Creative and Underrated Sets: ORAS Edition (NO SHITTY GIMMICKS, Read Post #419)

    It's not meant to be a late game sweeper but a lure for heatran that can also sweep once it's removed assuming thats their only counter. If you want a bulky lategame sweeper replace giga drain with dragon pulse, but then u might as well use a standard glare Serperior.

    Resource Creative and Underrated Sets: ORAS Edition (NO SHITTY GIMMICKS, Read Post #419)

    Serperior @ Assault Vest Ability: Contrary EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Timid Nature - Hidden Power [Fire] - Leaf Storm - Mirror Coat - Giga Drain Was looking for something to lure in and take care of both heatran and scizor. This does that and can function as a sweeper late game. I found giga...

    Bisharp @ Leftovers Ability: Defiant EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd Jolly Nature - Swords Dance - Knock Off - Low Kick / Iron Head - Magnet Rise I've been using this set and after a couple battles I must say I'm loving it. It acts as a deterrent to defog, and removes items for maximum hazards...

    NU Stage 7 - Snover Suspect Discussion

    Okay, time for me to throw in my two cents. I haven't had much experience with hail. I've only tried it once to test its efficiency in this tier and was bored within the span of a couple of battles because I was losing consistently. It was probably the team I built that led me to this...

    Underrated but effective sets in the BW2 overused metagame

    Dragonite @ Life Orb Trait: Multiscale EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 Atk / 6 Spd Quiet Nature - Draco Meteor - ExtremeSpeed - Superpower - Fire Blast Forget Kyurem-B. This is the premier wall breaker/lead of BW2 OU. While he may not match Kyurem's raw power, he comfortably makes up for it with multiscale...

    BW2 General Metagame Discussion Thread

    You know, I was thinking about the state of the metagame and how stall is virtually non-existent now. I figured a neat way to take advantage of this is by throwing together a team of Deoxys-D and five priority users (2 of which are boosters if I ever need to wallbreak). Not expecting to get...

    BW2 General Metagame Discussion Thread

    Well, it's sort of implied since it's running U-turn, and I do recall saying "almost single-handedly" if you'd read closer... :/ idk, I see rough skin as a decent way to punish weak U-turns. Garchomp also has several advantages over it you can't really compare the two. That Dragon STAB/phazing...

    BW2 General Metagame Discussion Thread

    The fact that it's so unpredictable with U-turn and its coverage, and send in lol chansey to have it crippled by Specs/Scarf Gothitelle. It'll definitely be walling Genesect then. Also, Yache mixchomp doesn't seem that bad. Yeah, its speed isn't up to par this generation, but its bulk more than...

    BW2 General Metagame Discussion Thread

    Uh, he could be using mixchomp to bait Skarmory. It's not completely implausible. Also, EB Gene is just incredible. It almost singlehandedly picks apart stall if you can get rid of hazards/prevent them from getting down. tbh, I feel like Stall has almost no place in this metagame. I think...

    Creative (and good) Movesets Mk II (READ THE OP FIRST)

    Here's a neat set I've been messing around with on the ladder. I don't know why anyone didn't get to this earlier. Gliscor @ Toxic Orb Trait: Poison Heal EVs: 6 Def / 252 HP / 252 Spd Jolly Nature - Substitute - Protect - Torment - Earthquake Add toxic spikes and you get a stalling...

    Pure Hackmons Threatlist

    The Dragon resistance is so useful and STAB Lava Plume>Dragon pulse IMO. You get the burn chance to buff up your weaker defense stat and help with stalling. Besides, the ground weakness wasn't really noticeable, but maybe that's because the rest of my team can handle EQs and Hydro Pumps while at...

    Pure Hackmons Threatlist

    Can someone add magic bounce Heatran to this list? I've been using it and made it pretty high on the hackmons ladder in like 3 hours sweeping mostly with it. The ladder is pretty small, but still, it has proven effective even in times where I thought I would lose. The set I use is below. I won't...

    Sweet Dreams

    Sorry I couldn't get to these earlier. Firstly, pokemazter got me thinking about how hazards weak I really am. I've thought of a better solution that won't screw up my team's defensive synergy. Chopltar can be used over cbtar to prevent deoxys from spamming hazards with the threat of superpower...

    ~Are made of this...~ Part I: The Introduction Who am I to disagree? This team has taken me places, and might very well be the last team I make in a while. It works like a machine in that all of the Pokemon have a purpose on the team and support each other in one way or another which is what...

    I'd like to talk about Darkrai

    Okay, looking back at the Smogon philosophy. I think this answers your question, idiotfrommars. It shouldn't be necessary to ban something unless it is absolutely without a doubt broken affecting the metagame in a negative way. Darkrai, in my opinion, did just that in the short time it was...

    Dragonite (Classic MixNite Revamp) [QC: 3/3][GP: 2/2]

    The fact that it's Dragonite doing the mixed attacking and not Salamence is what I think he was trying to get at. There is a psychological advantage to using mixnite over mixmence in that it is generally unexpected for Dragonite to go mixed. I've had tons of success using this particular set as...
