Hello! I built this team recently around Mega Garchomp, due to its ability to destroy stall, and it fairs well against balance. Consider it filling the hole Hoopa left in my heart. The team’s job is to weaken Garchomp’s checks and counters, before sending it out to sweep late game. While it is...

Hey, looks like a cool team, but I have a few suggestions As you mentioned, Roost can be a better move on Scizor than Pursuit, and for the things you could Pursuit trap, such as Starmie, Latios/Latias, or Gengar, either have a coverage move like Hidden Power Fire or Will-O-Wisp, or can be dealt...

Hey Smogon! I made this hyper offense team with the idea of having Mega-Manectric to late game sweep, and using Hoopa-Unbound to deal with and weaken stall and balance. I know i'm by far the first person to use this core, but I wanted to try making one for myself. The team is doing pretty well...

Deals with a lot of setup sweepers like Manaphy, Magic Guard Clef, Scizor, Mega Zard X, Talonflame, and a ton more, allowing it to set up on these mons and sweep

As you mentioned you have problems with Fairies like Mega-Gardevoir, Azumaril, and Clefable to an extent. One thing you could try would be running a bulky Mega-Scizor over Slowbro. Scizor deals with most fairies really well, as well as having a similar role to Slowbro, bulky attacker. Bulky...

You mentioned you wanted a fast, bulky status inflicter to replace Jolteon. Klefki instantly comes to mind, usually going first because of Prankster, as well as being bulky with a ridiculously good typing. I would recommend a set like this: Klefki Set: Klefki @ Leftovers Ability: Prankster EVs...

Hello! So start of, the set and especially EV spread on Landorus is very inefficient. EVs must be divisible by 4, or else they are wasted. Also, Earthquake + Stone Edge is ridiculously good Coverage, and Earthquake should not be undermined. As you team lacks a good Phisical Pivot, I receomend a...

Hi, Welcome to Smogon! Running Ice Beam on Manaphy is kind of redundant on this team, as you already have a lot of Lati counters. Bisharp can pursuit trap it, and Gardevoir and Galvantuala deal with it pretty well. I would instead run Hidden Power Fire in that slot. In addition, as you rely on...

Hi! Welcome to Smogon! This team looks pretty solid. If you are running Scarf Latios, Trick and Hidden Power Fire are generally better options than Thunderbolt and Ice Beam, as Pokemon that are hit by those moves are going to be 2HKOd at the very least by Draco Meteor. Latios Set: Latios @...

Hello Kocrysis, Welcome! My first suggestion would be a change from Swampert. While Swampert can be a strong water type attacker, there are better options. I would recommend Azumarill over Swampert, as Azu with a Choice band can hit harder, as well as create a very strong Dragon-Fairy-Steel...

Oh, I forgot about Zard-Y, yea that is a better reason to run Stone Edge.

This looks like a pretty solid team! My on suggestion would be a few modifications to the Heatran set: Heatran @ Air Balloon Ability: Flash Fire EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe Modest Nature - Fire Blast / Flamethrower - Earth Power - Ancient Power - Stealth Rock Since you are running offensive...

Ok, I think i'm gonna change the sets to this: Metagross @ Metagrossite Ability: Clear Body EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe Jolly Nature Meteor Mash Zen Headbutt Bullet Punch Hammer Arm Garchomp (F) @ Rocky Helmet Ability: Rough Skin EVs: 252 HP / 164 Def / 92 Spe Impish Nature Earthquake...

Hello! This team was able to peak at 1600 on the Showdown OU ladder, but still has a few flaws I don't know how to fix. for example, this team has a very hard time with sand, as I lack a flying type or ground immunity, and bulky steel types such as Ferrothorn. the team is based around weakening...

0 Atk IVs on special attackers make it so you take less damage from Foul Play and confusion.

One Pokemon that checks Gengar and counters Mega Altaria would be Choice Banded Scizor. It OHKOs both after Stealth Rock with BP, and can Pursuit trap Gengar. Putting it over Azumarill might be a good idea, as it can use Superpower can deal with Chansey, and also counter Weavile. Other than...

How about a ban where you may only have x amount of Pokes with Baton Pass on your team. Banning Magic Bonce + Baton Pass I think is a little to much, because many Espeons run BP even though no other Poke on there team does, just for switch advantage, an I don't see anything wrong with that...

I use a male Meowsic dual screens lead on my team, and Prankster makes him good at it. It can live a couple hits after the first screen, and it has decent bulk. It also has thunder wave, witch is good with Prankster for obvious reasons. Lastly, a lot of people underestimate how much damage...

I use a male on my team as a dual screens lead and it is really effective. TheCatGuy (Meowstic) @ Light Clay Ability: Prankster EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SDef Calm Nature - Reflect - Light Screen - Thunder Wave - Psychic It sets up my screens and then I can switch into a setup sweeper, get one...
