While playing around with some gimmicks on the battle spot (meaning I had a smeargle and ditto in my team preview) I noticed a lot of Japanese players running a Brave Bird/Flare Blitz/U-Turn/Sleep Talk Talonflame lead to deal with Spore Smeargle. So that is worth a try if sleep is giving you a...

Well I just had the unfortunate pleasure of coming up against a team like this coincidentally. Running Meowstic, Smeargle and Ditto. I thought I was alright after killing Ditto and Smeargle with my Drapion alive but Drapion was killed off by Dark Pulse from meowstic, so he wasn't running...

Would you be able to give a bit more info about the other pokemon in the teams and how battles typically went? Sounds like a pretty interesting strategy but I don't see how it could get past any team with a dark type, and assist would be gambling pretty hard unless the other pokemon in the team...

Rocky Helmet Slowbro can switch into Choice Scarf Garchomps Outrage, take 2 hits and KO with Ice Beam after the helmet damage. 252 Atk Garchomp Outrage vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Slowbro: 69-82 (34.1 - 40.5%) -- guaranteed 3HKO 0 SpA Slowbro Ice Beam vs. 4 HP / 0 SpD Garchomp: 156-188 (84.7 -...

The thing I like about the 3v3 style is I don't have to take Drifblim if I see a common taunted/phaser :) Blaziken and Mega Kang are perfectly good without Drifblim and there's three other pokemon to choose from. I seem to come across a lot of players without any kind of phase or taunt though...

I've made a team utilising an idea like this but unfortunately haven't had a chance to test it properly with rated battles down. I tried it out in a few free battles but people generally rage quit after the string of misses. I went with 252 def/252 SpD Evs and Sitrus berry on Drifblim to...
