This team is NOT being played as a heavy offense team should be. Yes, heavy offense involves killing the opposition before you get killed, but part of this idea is that you don't give your opponents a chance to set up by already being setup. This means that revenge killing is usually not a...

I would tend to agree that neither raikou nor CM lucario are very good on a specially based HO team (having tried using them myself). Although fast, I also would agree that scarftar is a huge problem (as is anyone else faster packing ground/dark moves). CM lucario is too slow and usually doesn't...

Blissey probably wouldn't switch into/would switch out of dragonite, as most dragonite run physical attacking sets (higher base Atk). You could try some other nasty plot sweeping pokemon, as you can plot the switch to blissey, then plot again as bliss attacks/twaves, then proceed to hit with an...

Jolteon doesn't get a boost from rain unless you decide to use Thunder, which becomes 100% accurate in rain - however, outside of rain, it has 70% accuracy so you probably won't want to use it. Playing in the rain shouldn't be too significant a change, since only infernape packs a fire move...

Like I said, blissey is not going to be switching into nape. Even with screens up, you obviously can't expect nape to be lasting until the end of the battle, so only having one check to blissey is not enough on an all special team. Well, the idea of offensive synergy is that a number of...

I actually am using a specially based HO team myself and I noticed a few things that your team needs. First, SR is absolutely necessary to get a few necessary OHKOs, such as against Salamence/Gyarados using infernape's +2 fire blast. Your other pokes will miss key OHKOs as well because of a...

Just a quick rate, I'd recommend either using thunderbolt over discharge on porygon2. Discharge and thunderwave together are kind of redundant, so might as well go for the extra power with thunderbolt. You don't need the increased 30% chance for paralysis when you already have a 100% paralysis...

It doesn't matter - Scarftar won't OHKO anyway.

When nesan said more descriptions, he meant that you should aim for at least 5 sentences. First, ninjask is a terrible lead in general. It is incapacitated by anything with taunt, which hits through substitute, priority users in general (like the ever so common scizor), and phazers. As...

Your Dugtrio is a problem. Scarf'd Dugtrio will never be able to OHKO tyranitar, whereas it can OHKO back with crunch. You need a banded Adamant dugtrio to always OHKO tyranitar, or a banded jolly dugtrio if you have stealth rocks up. Dutrio is not someone who should be setting up stealth rocks...

According to smogon, when using acupressure, "if the target has a Substitute, this move has no effect, even if the target is the user of the move." Does this clause not apply in shoddy?

The point of HP Fire is to OHKO scizor, which can come in intending to U-turn. It's not only your team that can take advantage of Latias being moved to Ubers. NPApe can sweep through your team. It can switch in on spiritomb, which can't do much damage, and set up. Afterwards, it outspeeds and...

Just fyi, forretress only adds a fire weakness, not a ground weakness.

Forretress OHKOs gengar 86% of the time with SR support. It's a guaranteed OHKO after life orb recoil, while gengar will never OHKO Forretress. Also, if you mistake the set starmie is running (i.e. it's running an offensive set instead of a rapid spin set), LO hydro pump OHKOs gengar and...

Uh... false. If you're going to build a team around a move, you should at least know what the move does. It only works for three turns, including the turn on which it was used. In any case physical jirachi severely hurts both forretress and scizor with fire punch, and dragonite with ice punch...

Put leftovers on weezing instead of black sludge. It is just way too simple for a trick user to simply trick the sludge on someone else on your team at the next available opportunity. The only time black sludge can be used reliably is on a mono-poison team. You'll also want pain split, which is...

AromaWish is illegal because Wish can only be acquired on blissey from a Wish event, and aromatherapy can only be acquired by breeding. Heal bell, on the other hand, can be taught by move tutor in HGSS, which makes Wish+Heal bell legal. Also, you are wrong about Softboiled - you are thinking of...

Just as a note, aromatherapy and wish are illegal on the same set for Blissey, although you can use heal bell and get the same effect. Also, is there any point to having both wish and softboiled?

Your team absolutely fears DD salamence, which can outspeed and OHKO all of your pokemon with SR support and a DD. It can come in on either skarmory, assuming you don't try to phaze it, or on tentacruel, which can't do any significant damage, and set up. You'll want better counters than Ttar and...
