Well, it's certainly been a while. I've been away from competitive Pokemon since the early stages of generation 5 thanks to the prevalence of rain, and the relative total ease of mirroring a team on the cartridges as of X and Y drew me back in. Before I begin, that's actually a self-imposed...

Kyuubi (Ninetales) @ Leftovers Ability: Drought EVs: 128 HP / 252 SpA / 20 SpD / 110 Spe Modest Nature (+SpA, -Att) - Fire Blast - SolarBeam - Sunny Day - Will-O-Wisp Ninetales' use goes without saying, since there's only one legit reason for using it. It sets up the Sun. If I think...

After a break from the game, waiting for the meta to stabilize, I return to notice that Blaziken had been banned. As such, my previous team fell apart, so I made this. Brief and to the point. Initial Look I had no idea where to start with my new team, so I picked Metagross at complete...

TEAM OVERVIEW For some reason, this team can't seem to decide whether it's good or bad. It just seems that its effectiveness fluctuates every day, even against the same opponents, and in both directions. I have too many Stealth Rock weaknesses in here, which is a problem, but I'm basically...

TEAM LINE-UP: This was my first attempt at creating a team for Generation 5. I made changes as necessary, but the team still gets beaten down repeatedly by several things, mainly anything that's too fast (Landlos and Doryuzu come to mind). That is why I'm here right now, asking for help...

This is a team I made with the help of my tutor during a Smogon tutoring session. It performs well, and has gotten me to a CRE of 1345 without creating an alt - which is higher than I've even been. Note that the team must be possible to make on both Shoddy and Wi-Fi. Changes are italicized. I...

My second attempt at a Little Cup team, this team has barely found any losses where the opposition wasn't down to their last Pokémon. It has also drawn nothing but compliments from my opponents. Pretty nice for a novice LC team. Changes will be made in Red. When They Get Older: For Now...

I created this team in order to try UU seriously. After trying Azumarill, it seemed to be one of the funnest things to sweep with, and thus this team became focused around it. All of the hard work is intended to be done by Azumarill. The concept here is simple: "Leafeon passes a Swords Dance to...

At a Glance: After a large amount of failed teams, I decided to select a Pokemon to base around instead of selecting a type of team and going from there. I ended up selecting Physical LO Flygon, and supplemented it with Gliscor. Everything else was built from there. Changes are in red...

My old team just wasn't cutting it anymore, so I figured that I may as well build a new team. Not much of a reason, but who needs a reason, anyways? So, I started looking for a Pokemon to build around. While searching, I looked for less common uses for the centerpiece Pokemon, so it would do...

There's only one restriction for this team: It must have Wi-Fi feasability as well as Shoddy feasibility. This means no Platinum formes (and most event legends are out of the question as well). This team has been tested for about two months. So far, it has an estimated win rate of about 70%...

I've been out of the game for a bit, and this team was created in an attempt to get me back in the game. From Afar: With More Detail: Swampert @ Leftovers Ability: Torrent EVs: 252 HP, 228 Def, 30 SpA Nature: Relaxed - Earthquake - Ice Beam - Stealth Rock - Roar That's...

Latias is now OU! -__- I've used this team, fixing it up whenever a problem arose, since the beginning of the DP metagame. When I was playing in the suspect ladder, I seemed to be the only one who had a hard time taking down Latias. Latias is something that I need serious changes to fix here...

The title says it all... It doesn't help me that I have many overlapping type weaknesses... The way it looked before all of the help will be quoted at the end of the post. Dexterity @ Silk Scarf Trait: Technician Nature: Jolly EVs: 6 HP, 252 Att, 252 Spe -Taunt -U-Turn -Fake Out -Double Hit...

I've been trying to play in "New UU". My team just doesn't match up! Please help... Dexterity @ Life Orb Trait: Technician Nature: Jolly EVs: 6 HP, 252 Att, 252 Spe -Taunt -U-Turn -Pursuit -Brick Break Ambipom can take many things down easily. With everything bulking up on the special side...

I've been using this team for a long time, but every time I've tried to use it against a new threat, I get demolished. So, I came here to fix it up yet again... This time, the main issue is Latias. I also have a problem with Cresselia. Please help as much as you can... All of those Calm Mind...

Well, Smogon's starting their BL/UU/NFE merger in less than a month. I intend to get into UU play when it gets merged. So I came here since the nice people at this site helped me build the framework of my OU team before... Please note that this team will be absolutely horrible for the first...

I was trying to rebuild my team to match Platinum standards. I went on Shoddy for the first time in ages to try this out. This was the third match, but there were many warstory-worthy battles that day. (That means you might be seeing more of these from me...) My Team: ACDC's Team will be...

As the title says... Vaporeon was meant to be a counter for bulky water-types, Suicune is the only one that it doesn't tend to work on... any help is appreciated! Note: With Haze, this may no longer be the case... Graphix the PORYGON-Z @ Choice Scarf Trait: Download Nature: Hasty IVs...
