Vaporeon @ Leftovers Trait: Hydration EVs: 248 HP / 252 SDef / 8 Def Calm Nature - Scald / Surf - Toxic - Acid Armor - Rest This is built for a rain stall team, made to be the wall from hell. With required rain support and preferred hazard support, you switch it into a weak or not very...

I think Genesect getting banned will make balanced teams much more viable now. He was simply too good at picking anything less than offense/hyper offense apart and hurt stall even more than it already was hurt. That said, will be a rocky week ahead as the removal of genesect will definitely...

Looks like he is banned. Was a nice team while it lasted though.

Ok, so I have played your team for the past few days (I really enjoy its build) and I have found some construction criticism for you. First and most importantly, Kyurem-B should have Sleep Talk over Freeze Shock. Freeze Shock is just too unreliable, while Sleep Talk allows you to have Breloom...

Team updated, threat list added and movesets altered. Gengar now has Focus Blast over Giga Drain. Chandelure now has HP Fighting over HP Ground. I am also, for now, using a Chandelure with Fire Blast to see how it compares to Overheat. As always, more reviews are great and help me improve.

Shadows in the Dark A mono-team was something I have wanted to do for quite a while. However, while mono-teams did intrigue me, one thing that was very important was that if I were to attempt one it would be at least somewhat viable in a competitive metagame. One of the types that has always...

Having just tried the team myself, seems to be a solid Drag Mag team. I really feel you should run a life orb user, probably over specs Hydreigon who I feel pulls his weight the least. A bulky LO Latias would not be a bad idea, it handles rain teams in general quite well as a bonus. Latias @...

This is a bit of a necro, but the unbanning of Kyurem-B gave this team a new toy that made it hard for me not to revisit it. Kyurem replaced by Kyurem-B. Constructive criticism is requested.

UU Full Stall After getting re-accustomed to the metagame for a few weeks by playing some OU, I finally decided to venture down into UU. The first thing I wanted to try out was full stall, as full stall was difficult and even arguably non-viable in OU... which is unfortunate as it is one of my...

If Infernape is going to be scarved, I would use Overheat over Heat Wave for the immensely superior immediate power. Thundurus-T should also be considered over Jolteon, as he also packs Volt Absorb and has altogether superior typing and bulk. He also gives you a fighting resistance.

You need whirlwind on Hippowdon. Roar is slightly inferior due to it not affecting pokemon with soundproof. This means you can't phaze BP teams with Mr. Mime.

The team has been updated again. Flygon has, sadly, been replaced by Scarf Landorus. Sableye is now running a more typical set packing leftovers and nightshade over trick and iron ball. I am now running Life Orb Latias over Choice Specs Latios, at least for the time being; they each have their...

My bad, it is in fact a Tanga berry and I got lazy with the checking. The Latios change I will consider, though I will miss OHKOing lesser special walls. I will also look at Landorus, though I am unlikely to implement it as it belies the teams theme. Do note I am able to sack Sableye to...

The team has been heavily altered. Deoxys-D now runs a Tanga berry, Gengar has been replaced by Sableye, and Genesect has been replaced by Scizor. New opinions are requested.

I have updated my team. Gengar is now using the disable set, while Infernape was replaced by Life Orb Mamoswine.

Something I am actually considering is running Ninetales. Rain teams seem to give me much more trouble than sun teams, and taking away their precious rain generally cripples both Jirachi (now extremely weak to fire attacks) and Tornadus-T (50% accurate Hurricane). It would also force them to...

With no hazards down I am helpless against good defensive teams, they would be able to switch all day while I struggle to do damage. Maybe if I could pack 7 pokemon I would consider this, but no... I can't use that set.

To those nitpicking about the EVs to counter a Genesect SpA boost, you are forgetting to take into account the natures of each of the pokemon. Infernape is Hasty, his defense is already lower than his special defensive. Flygon is also Hasty... same thing occurs, with no need to invest those 4...

Hazardous Hyper Offense Inspired by Flygon Team Building Process: While balanced teams and stall teams are usually my forte, with the occasional gimmick team such as baton pass thrown in, I wanted to give a hyper offense team a try. The first thing I wanted in the team was something that could...

Latias sucker punched me into a battle before I could save and I accidently Ko'd it. Does it respawn?
