    OU Cores in the BW2 Metagame

    IMO, an offensive ghost like Gengar goes well with the Kyurem + tentacruel core. Speaking of that core, it is truly amazing especially when there is synergy galore with the team they are in. Kind of opened my eyes to how good Kyurem can be with just a little support from toxic spikes. I...

    Volcarona

    In terms of a rain team, is it worth it to run a bulky Volc with roost or drain? Or continue with a standard special sweeper set? I'm really leaning towards roost for some reason.

    Feraligatr is going to be so beast. Now I just need sheer force to be released, and it's GG for godlike Rain sweeper.

    Haxorus (Analysis)

    Sets look as dangerous as they were thought to be. Overall, good stuff RGB. All these sets work great in double dragon, with him being lead or not. I think im going to continue to run my "weird" "Bulky" Ono that I've used for so long, but still, good stuff.

    @BF Dancing to Ono: That is a really big no no. Seriously, just...just don't even... @Shadow Claw: Shadow claw is still an option on any of his sets, but Outrage/EQ is the better coverage. While you can also forgo having taunt on him as well, replacing it with either shadow claw, or Dragon...

    Must have been standard sweepers. Either way though, Outrage shouldn't have OHKO'ed you if he had no boost. And even with boost, it wouldn't happen. You need to watch out for bulky Ono. Im guessing running hustle, if you don't have the attack boost to take it out, it'll live through any...

    Not by far. You'd have to be running jolly, and holding a scarf to outspeed Ono after a +1. Even when running 80 speed EV's, Aianto can't outspeed.

    I agree that, hands down, Haban berry takes the cake. I haven't even tested the other items outside of Lum, which was decent, but I'm still more afraid of outright dying to another dragon. It prevents alot of K.O's from going down, and contributes to its effective bulk in the case of problems to...

    It's because regardless of what ever speed Ono reaches, majority of his checks, not to be confused with counters, after still faster then him after 1 DD. So, you invest in minimum Speed EV's which allows you to outspeed them, i.e. 80 speed EV's, i.e. last check is Chomp. That's where that so...

    Reason he was K.O'ed was for two things more than likely: 1. You played him earlier then what he was suppose to be played. 2. Ran a 252/252 standard sweeper set, which, is prone to getting revenge killed if played any earlier then late game (or with out the proper support). With that said...

    Im gonna try out the SD set I posted up last page or so at a get together with a good bunch of local competitive players. If anything, I've already done well enough with my DD set, so I'll be giving the SD set some more time to work itself out for me. IMO, With the calcs in mind that I posted...

    Don't count out smarter players now Gravity xP. But yea, I understand what you mean with Ditto, but as said before (and agreed upon by everyone now im guessing) is that you have to be able to play around outcomes like that. IMO, knowing ditto is on a team takes away the suprise, which, smarter...

    Slaking

    IMO, the escape strategy works, and WELL, since I've been beaten by it several times before and swept in some cases, such as Slaking. In fact, a friend of mine in our local tourney scene has a team specifically for this with Slaking(singles, doubles, and triples), and it personally piss the me...

    Ah, ok. It's all cool then. I agree that in order to play setup sweepers in gen 5 you need to be very precise with your play, and have to work around those problems mentioned. At best, yes, he'll be about mid OU, possibly upper-Mid, and a slight chance at High (not to be confused with Top). BL...

    Who's making him out to be any stronger then he already is? If anything, Im playing him because I enjoy playing him, regardless of how strong he is. From that stand point he isn't weak, and can fit well in what ever placement (outside of Ubers) he's in. Even though Ditto revenges just about...

    Well, that is because the guy rage quit afterwards. The last poke he had was roserade, and thus, would have been swept. He could have gotten lucky with another possible protect, but my last pokemon would have taken him out anyway. Which, if your wondering, is Mixed Mence. Not to mention scizor...

    Here is a quick log of a battle I had on PO earlier using my personal Ono set alongside it's centralized wifi, local tourney, and PO team. The Ono set is bulky, and the teammates are meant to break specific threats that plague it. note- Tentacruel is usually not featured on the team as it's...

    You got the EV's mixed up Kurashi. It's 80 spe EV's not Atk. 100 Atk EV's with Admant nature goes a loooong way, being if not just as strong, or stronger then most DD'ers (missing beating standard Ray set by 9 pts). Calcs have been up before showing it still K.O's things just as many things it...

    No one is talking about the Ono to Nite comparison anymore, other then the few post above that happened hours ago. Several bulky sets have already been posted, with the minimum requirements and such for Ono to be as great as it is. Don't take this harshly either since I know some people get...
