    I would just like to pipe in on the whole Shuckle vs Xatu match up. Mental herb Shuckle is basically deadweight vs Xatu with the most it can do is chip at it with Knock off and remove its Lefties/Helmet/Colbur. That's where Red Card Shuckle comes in. There aren't an obscene amount of Taunt users...

    I assume what he was implying was that manectrics main set being scarfed it could outrun sneasel or whimiscott and hit them hard with something like overheat. Also what people seem to overlook is its ability in Lightning rod making other electrics like the Rotom forms think twice about clicking...

    NU Teambuilding Lab [Kiyo'd]

    Hi don't been to be a bother but just wondering if my request was forgotten or if Scraftys BU set is just to difficult to build around in this offensive meta. If the latter is the case then the builders can use Z Iron tail DD Scrafty instead and build around whichever playstyle they want. Thanks...

    NU Teambuilding Lab [Kiyo'd]

    Decided to come back to NU finally after a long break seeing as the new mons, power creep and Z moves gives our beloved tier a very fresh look haha. Was wondering if someone could whip up a BO/balanced team around BU scrafty. I know that the Z Iron tail DD set is nice to take out fairies but I...

    Is there anywhere we can find the list of NU mons by type that we had in the old thread or even the role compendium? It was super useful for teambuilding yet now we have the fresh SM NU that doesn't have either.

    Charizard @ Life Orb Ability: Blaze EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe Naive Nature - Earthquake - Fire Blast - Air Slash - Roost/Hidden Power Grass Lanturn is usually a good check to special zard however not Mixed Zard. Also , from item preview an itemless Zard might make Lanturn...

    Piloswine @ Eviolite Ability: Thick Fat EVs: 240 HP / 252 Atk / 16 Spe Adamant Nature - Ice Shard - Earthquake - Icicle Crash - Toxic/Roar/Curse Piloswine is almost always used as a rocker however I felt that it could experiment with other support moves since this team already had a...

    Lower Tiers ORAS NU Viability Rankings

    I think the main reason Swellow is picked almost always over Chatot isnt just the amazing speed tier but mostly because of Scrappy.Perhaps if Rotom goes up in usage then chatot might see more usage but due to the overwhelming popularity of Rotom and Missy, Chatot cant spam its STAB as often...

    Xatu @ Life Orb Ability: Magic Bounce EVs: 252 SpA / 8 SpD / 252 Spe Timid Nature - Psychic - Heat Wave - Grass Knot - Roost Normally Piloswine can easily get up rocks vs Xatu since it takes little damage from Psychic and most Xatu's carry Heat Wave or Signal beam for Lix or...

    Lower Tiers ORAS NU Viability Rankings

    I think what tehy is trying to say is that ranks also consider if mons are out classed in certain roles by a higher ranked mon and they are not bad per say but you gain very little by using it compared to using the mon that does ever role it can do and more. For instance if samurott and a bunch...

    Awesome team man its cool that Grumpig is seeing some more usage and Sub Grumpig is something I dont think anyone has really tried. Mostly solid team but there are some things to experiment with. Unbo is right when SE can be stalled out on Regirock however I suggest Curse Regirock as a...

    Vigoroth Semi-Stall I decided to post this team that has been tweaked over the past few weeks and before PrinceLucian murders me :] The concept of the team is to weaken the opposing team with hazards, notably Toxic Spikes, in order for BU Vigoroth to setup late game and sweep. Vigoroth is...
