First: it doesn't matter whether or not it's horrible in Ubers. As long as it's broken in OU, it should go to Ubers. Ubers may be a tier now, but it's not a usage based tier like the rest of them. Second: it really is pretty bad in Ubers. The only real niche for Greninja there is that it's the...

Recently in OU room they were discussing Mega Diancie. One person mentioned its lack of usable resistance, glossing over Flying like it's a garbage type. I, for one, is a big fan of Flying as an offensive type. However, I then realized that most abusers of Flying type offense are now in Ubers...

1. Your descriptions are way too short. You need to say more about your choices or this is gonna get locked. 2. Briefly rating: Salamence: Earthquake over Body Slam. You don't need to Paralyze anyone, because with Dragon Dance you're gonna be faster than most things anyway. Xerneas: any...

The spread on Primal Groudon is less than optimal. You don't need that much speed investment, cuz +2 Speed is actually a huge increase, and at +2 you are wasting the extra speed investment. I'm gonna copy a spread that Steeljackal<3 came up with: Groudon-Primal @ Red Orb Ability: Desolate Land...

So OU? Or perhaps Battle Spot singles? Assuming you're playing OU, Wigglytuff is simply unviable. Even if you dislike Sylveon, there are plenty of dual type Fairies that'll do better than Wigglytuff. Diancie, Azumarill, Gardevoir, Klefki, Togekiss or even Whimsicott are better choices. Plus...

You need to clearly state what metagame you intend this team to play in. Just by saying OR post game doesn't tell us much. If you're playing against AI, then that really isn't "competitive". If you wish to play on the Battle Spot ladder, then you need to tell us exactly which format you intend...

Really solid team. Quick suggestion: Roar on PDon? It pretty much solves GeoXern and helps against Substitute Ho-Oh especially if you have Rocks up. It also gives you a way to escape Mega Gengar without being removed by Destiny Bond. Klefki seems to be a little out of sync with your team right...

What I don't understand is why use a suicide lead on a defensive team. Usually hyper offensive teams are the ones that employ suicide lead to apply pressure from the start. For a more defensive team however, it's harder to muster enough offense to pressure Defogger, which means you're playing...

Hello Antimattle. It is evident from your team that you're very new to the Gen VI Ubers metagame. Your team needs quite a bit of rework. 1. Funny how you have both Primal Groudon AND Ho-Oh yet claim GeoXern to be your biggest threat. In XY, GeoXern is such a ubiquitous sweeper, but in OR/AS it...

I can't say I like Tentacruel here. In my opinion it does too little. In such a centralized meta, you have to have a check for all those threats that get ridiculous usage, AND have all the things that a team needs to have like hazard control. That's why role combining is so valuable particularly...

Finally about Scarf Jirachi: xJownage has it right, it doesn't have a lot of power in Ubers. That's why I think Trick should be used over Ice Punch. Yeah, Ice has good coverage, but we're talking base 100 Atk, not even fully invested, unboosted, non STAB, and 75 base power. Trick, on the other...

I have a feeling I've read some parts of this thread before... Anyway, I recommend changing Arceus-Water's status move to Toxic. GeoXern is an issue, but you do have checks: both Ho-Oh and Pdon are solid GeoXern checks. With 248/52 Special bulk investment, +2 GeoXern cannot OHKO Ho-Oh with any...

RMT OR/AS Ubers: http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/or-as-ubers-ridiculous-new-threats.3522846/

RMT really isn't the place you ask these questions. You should probably go to the Battling 101 forum and potentially get involved in the tutor program.

You have to realize that something that's good in OU might not translate to Ubers very well, simply because of the sheer POWER of the Uber titans. Ubers is a very centralized metagame, where a few powerful threats dominate and get ridiculous usage. For example, in OU, Rotom-W is a very good...

I know your probably built this team having only XY in mind, and kudos to you for building an excellent stall team that frankly we don't get to see enough. However, with OR/AS, both Primal Groudon and Mega Rayquaza shreds this team, since you're using a weather based core in Tyranitar and...

Oops, I didn't see Knock Off on the list of moves that Thundurus learns. Yeah go for Knock Off. And yeah, the only two changes I'm pretty confident about are Xern and Thundurus. The rest are just suggestions, cuz I'm not sure of those either.

First, congratulations on making a team that shows originality (especially when pretty much everyone's running PDon and MRay, myself included...). There are some things that I'd like to point out: 1. Too much set up. I think even for hyper offense teams, you really shouldn't have more than 2...

Everybody expected OR/AS to bring huge changes to the metagame, but few imagined how ridiculous the new threats really are. Old staples have now gained some very tough enemies: both GeoXern and Scarf Kyogre now has to worry about Primal Groudon; EKiller's Espeed hits about as hard as MRay's...
