Introduction: Despite the ruleset for VGC 2015 not being released yet, I feel that I need to prepare a lot more than in previous years. In general I am more competent at Singles than Doubles, and I am aiming to change that, while getting a good grip on potential threats when the meta is finally...

Introduction: (currently unfinished, will add rest of images at a later date) I've had a small break for making RMTs recently, mainly due to my teams just not working too well, or just not being too fussed about playing. This changed with the creation of OR/AS OU, which allowed us all to try out...

Introduction: This will be briefer than most intro's I write as this is a new version of an older team of mine. Previously it was based on a core of Specially Defensive Aegislash with my own build of Bulky Charizard X. After bans and meta shifts this team fell out of use, until recently, after...

Introduction: Right, this is yet another RMT from me in 6th Gen, and most of mine fall by the way side so it probably isn't noticed, but this must be my 10th this Gen. To cut any rambling short, I have never, or rarely to be accurate, ever built a team around weather, this is mainly due to my...

Introduction: Another day, yet another RMT from me, though I don't many people notice that I do post a fair few. To keep the introduction short, I am once again trying one of my favourite metagames, in NU, and noticed how uncommon some play styles are in these lower reaches, Volt-Turn being one...

Introduction: After watching the livestream of the Worlds I decided to have another stab at making a VGC team, I did enter one in the UK nationals, which didn't perform too well at all. This time I wanted to make something that could work consistantly and allow my to get used to VGC gameplay...

Introduction: Hello, I am Doz, with another OU RMT I think my 4th in this tier now and my first in a suspect ladder. This team was created to try and show the viability of my favourite Dragon type in Haxorus. it has enough going for it to function in the current OU meta, probably more so with...

Introduction Here I am for what must be my 6th or 7th RMT of Gen 6, my third in OU, after my Mega-Absol team, and my Gravity team. The focus of this team is to use some under rated Pokemon, and some under rated, or unexpected sets. The end result is currently one of my best OU attempts since I...

Introduction: Thanks to a post on Facebook the other day I discovered the STABmons metagame that is ran here on Smogon. For people who are unaware of it, the premise is fairly simple, the Pokemon can use any move it gains STAB on, on top of it's existing movepool. This means such things as...

Introduction: For what is my 4th RMT of recent times, I have came back to OU to try my hand at building a team around one of my favourite, yet under appreciated moves, Gravity. It is a very interesting concept to build a team around for a number of key reasons, which are: Firstly, Gravity...

For what is my 3rd RMT in recent times, the other's being a VGC team, and a Mega Absol based OU team, I am now here treading the waters of XY RU, inspired to by some of the teams I have already seen in the forums. One team in particular stood out to me, it involved a Yanmega utilising Endure and...

Now onto the in depth look at the team!! Absol @ Absolite Ability: Justified (Magic Bounce) Nature: Naive (Spe+/SpD-) EVs: 252 Atk/40 SpA/216 Spe -Sucker Punch -Knock Off -Superpower -Fire Blast Absol here is the reason the team was built. It has two main functions on the team, first...

Right I haven't posted much on here for some time, only becoming active again in recent days. And I'm sure not one person noticed!! Anyway as some of you will be aware there is a series of VGC style events happening in the UK and I am aiming to attend one of those, the problem being I am...

This must now be my 4th/5th Rate My Team of the 5th Gen now, and I have a confession to make... I love making them! Even if I don't get many actual rates or that they spend days being ignored, it's still fun to make them and let the people of smogon critisise and complement whatever...

Hello, it is I Am Doz with a new RMT for you people on smogon to quickly browse and forget about. I recently went about making a new team to do some laddering with, as my usual teams sort of linger about in the 1100's not doing much, and I felt that I could get higher than that with a new team...

I'm back! and probably no one noticed I sort of left smogon for a while, maybe because my only real contribution was a Nidoqueen set on the creative movesets thread, and my last RMT which was for the VGC 2011 meta game. Anyway moving on, I recently decided to delete all of my previous team's I...

This is my first Rate My Team since mid 4th Gen I believe, and I'm hoping to present this team in a good enough fashion. Basically this team was created as a starting point for the VGC 2011 ladder on the Smogon server of Pokemon Online, however after failing to get many battles I tried my hand...

Whilst testing out various Pokemon in a 2 Pokemon lead combination I created my own moveset for a Gardevoir. Below is the info you need to know. Nature: Timid EV's: -HP: 172 -Sp.A: 84 -Spe: 252 Item: Choice Scarf Moveset: -Trick -Will O Wisp - Psychic/Thunderbolt - HP Fire The point of the set...

This is my first ever attempt at a war story, so I chose a match that wasn’t too ‘haxy’ and was fun to contest. All criticism is welcome so I can write better stories in the future. This match was towards the start of a fairly new team, focusing on my lead pairing of Togekiss and Gliscor to...

The idea of this team is rapidly setting off gravity , using one of 3 pokemon and then fire off powerful moves, e.g. Porygon Z's Zap Cannon, or Starmie's Hydro Pump. Starmie, Porygon Z, Azelf and Metagross are the main offensive threat, while Starmie and Metagross support though Trick and...
