  1. Suspect Ladder Haban Berry Issue?

    Limitless switched in Garchomp (lvl 100 Garchomp ♂). Garchomp used Outrage. Garchomp went on a rampage! It's super effective! Garchomp lost 59% of its health. kiryoku's Garchomp fainted. Limitless wins! My Garchomp has Haban Berry, but it never activated. Am I missing something?
  2. OU Sandstorm Team that isn't quite there

    This is my first attempt at using a Sandstorm team. It’s been doing decently, but there are some things that I know can be improved. However, I’ve been struck with team builder’s block. There are some Pokemon that sadly walk all over this team such as WishBliss with Toxic and Flamethrower...
  3. Making Good Choices - 10th on Ladder (OU RMT)

    INTRO: Something I’d like you to note when reading this thread is that I don’t have a single set-up sweeper. This team is all-about inflicting some sort of damage every single turn. I also run 3 users of either Choice Band or Choice Specs…no Scarves! Prediction makes the game fun, and with...
  4. DPP Jumpluff

    This is my first peer edit, so if I have something formatted incorrectly or anything like that, don’t hesitate to point it out. I know Jumpluff is a UU Pokemon, but this set is tailored to OU where, ironically, I feel it has the most potential since OU is so physical-based and stall is less...
  5. Successful UU Offensive Team

    The following is the first team I have played extensively with in the new UnderUsed. It is an excellent change-of-pace tier that I have thoroughly enjoyed competing in. This is primarily an offensive team, though I still retain decent defensive capabilities given the bulk of Pokemon...
  6. The Uber Metagame: a Fun "Change of Pace"

    Note for posters: DO NOT DISCUSS WHETHER CERTAIN POKEMON SHOULD BE BANNED FROM UBERS. The uber metagame has been seemingly forgotten in the transition to Platinum. Hopefully this thread will encourage some of you to begin the “dive” into ubers. I will try and express why I believe it to be in...
  7. In the Footsteps of maddog; OU BP team on 12 game W Streak

    I believe the answer to be an emphatic “YES!”. Allow me to explain. Before dismissing this as a typical Baton Pass team that fails, realize that it is not. I have put a lot of time and effort into this, making the team as unique and competitive as I believe possible. Please do not think that...
  8. Team kirokyu: v2.0

    This team here is my first top 50 team! I had a lot of fun playing with it, and it is rather "special" to me, because of how rapidly it increased my Shoddy ranking. http://www.smogon.com/forums/showthread.php?t=47885 The above link was my inspiration for this team. I'll admit that I stole...
  9. Team Kiryoku: Possible Retirement?

    This is likely my best team to date. Today I reached 1541 on the ladder, a new personal best. However, playing with the team is starting to get old, and I'm ready to go for something new. I'd appreciate your opinions on whether I should start from scratch with the way the metagame is changing...
  10. New to UU... Could Use Some Help

    After playing the OU metagame extensively for a few months, boredom set in. My ranking was up to 1530 and was still rising quite rapidly with a new team that went 35-4. That was a great team, but it was standard. Winning with the same boring tactics inspired me to make a creative team, so I...
  11. Simply put, I Missed a lot in my Short Break...

    I took a break from Pokemon for a week or so because of some other issues that I had to deal with in my “real” life, if you will. Wow, did I miss a lot or what? I have been reading through all this Platinum info that has just been released. Catching up really is a pain. That is where I need your...
  12. I Am Awful at Naming RMTs...

    This is my latest team that I am using on the Smogon Shoddy Server. I have always been fascinated with "Stall" / Defensive style of play. My attempts in the past with these types of teams haven't really had a whole lot of success, but I think this group is different. However, I just can't...
  13. My First OU Stall Team!

    I’ve recently decided to make my first stall team. Understand that it is my first, so I’m sure it needs a lot of help. Many of my previous teams were more geared towards just having fun with Pokemon, using some of my favorites such as Flareon and Poliwrath (although both worked out...
  14. Rate My Hail Team Please!

    Hello Smogon! I am 8 Ball, new to the Forums and still fairly new to Pokemon. I have been playing for somewhere in the neighborhood of 3-4 Months, but have just now become a somewhat competitive battler on Smogon's Shoddy Server. This is my favorite team I have used thus far (not sure if it’s...
