  1. SS OU just came back to competitive pokemon, send help!

    hey guys I've just come back to showdown since... Gen.6 I think? so, before this team, I've built some others, but it seems there's always something that sweep me so easily, man so many new things this gen Dragonite @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Multiscale EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Adamant...
  2. ORAS UU kinda balanced team

    so hey guys! I tried to play on UU now, and honestly, I think this is more competitive than OU and Ubers, and I really liking it now, so I built a team, my playstyle still pretty much loosely based on how I play on OU. I've tried more specialized team before, like offense team, but I got...
  3. ORAS OU Gyarados and friends

    thanks kiry4n! haha yes that (?) marks because I don't really sure what set should I use on Mew however, since hippowdon is on team, do you think i should switch mew with exdarill@sand rush?

  5. ORAS UU My UU Team

    Thanks, Mr. Dread Plate! Your insight are beautiful! And yes, I reviewed what everyone here carefully and I agree that I might not have made the best choice. My primary concern of not replacing gligar with NidoQ is that NidoQ isn't a superior tank. And unlike gligar, she has no recovery. The...

    I'll try mine: Cobalion @ Life Orb Ability: Justified EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 SpD Careful Nature - Thunder Wave - Volt Switch - Taunt / Stealth Rock / Swords Dance - Close Combat / Iron Head Support bulky cobalion. Cobalion has pretty good bulk and very very diverse movepool. So why not...
  7. ORAS UU My UU Team

    big thanks to everyone here! Yes you guys are right, I did have problems with water-types and mamoswine. As you can see, this is also happened because 3 of my teams are basically weak to water, and my physical tank is double weak to ice. I originally thought about replacing krookodile to a more...
  8. ORAS UU My UU Team

    Hi guys :3 I admit I'm not so new in smogon, but I haven't played for so long since early X/Y. This time I want to try UU instead of standard OU because of so many new megas in OU. I never played UU seriously before, and here is the competitive team that might need some pointers...

    skarmory can switch whirlwind with defog
  10. Pokémon Pinsir

    +2 252 Atk Aerilate Mega Pinsir Return vs. 252 HP / 232+ Def Skarmory: 142-168 (42.5 - 50.2%) -- 39.5% chance to 2HKO after Stealth Rock and Leftovers recovery come on, where's 80% of the time come from? skarmory also has roost granted skarmory won't be having a good time against pinsir, but...

  12. Pokémon Bisharp

    actually there aren't even many checks to +2 bisharp: conk, breloom, infernape, terrakion, cobalion, virizion, keldeo, dragonite, mega aggron, chesnaught and most of them are kinda low-profile also note that physical tank like skarmory, gliscor, hippowdon as well as intimidate will not work and...
  13. Pokémon Pinsir

    I don't get it, +2 quick attack still does more damage than +2 feint against talonflame Quick Attack 85.9 - 101.6% Feint 64.7 - 76.5
  14. Item Choice Scarf (Role in the Meta)

    I've been thinking offensive scarf still useful within infernape, diggersby, kyurem-b and excadrill. I agree its usage has dropped and there's another option in instant power from band/specs. Aside from that, scarf could be used on tricker and late game finishers that won't die from some...
  15. Pokémon Blastoise

    oh I see
  16. Pokémon Blastoise

    isn't dragon tail a decreased priority move already? there's really no need for that -speed
  17. np: XY UU Stage 0 - I Lived

    toxicroak is a counter to crawdaunt, it must have enough speed investment tho tangrowth works too and chesnaught I think that is all there are lots of checks and revenge killer, but not enough counters, even def umbreon is 55.3 - 65.2% by it
  18. XY UU Viability Ranking Thread

    agreed it should be higher, but probably only C/C+ maximum because: - low attack stat (75 isn't enough, not even ohkoing m.doom) - no recoveries, forced to run roost - hawlucha sd on it and basically anything flying say hello to it - roost cost a momentum, and make it vulnerable to grass attack...
  19. First time building Battling team! Advice would be great! Rate my team?

    about that venusaur mega, I think seed- draining is enough, you probably won't need that synthesis anyway, care about slapping sludge bombs instead?
