The new Bullet Punch Scizor is a major pain for everyone's teams, and should be considered pretty high up on the threat list when making or adjusting a team. From what I've heard of your team so far, it seems fast and fragile (Gengar, Weavile, Staraptor...).
Scizor eats these pokemon for breakfast. Beating fast frail foes is what a Technician Bullet Punch does best.
....

Hope I helped.

Yep, fast and fragile. I actually learned it from my friend.

I think I might go with Zapdos first and see what happens. Yeah I like the idea of Heat Wave. :)

Thanks for giving me ideas, or rather helping me grasp the main idea. :D
 
Well other luck items like Brightpowder and Scope lens are allowed, so I don't think that's why. Gonna have to take this one up with Colin I guess =/

Um, no. They are listed separately in the Pokedex, so they are different species.

To elaborate, a pokemon is composed of a movepool, its stats, and its typing. I believe if either its typing or stats differ from another pokemon, it's not the same pokemon. Whether they are related by evolution should not play an important factor in how they are used in competitive play.

Case in point, Scyther is used dominantly in UU, whereas Scizor, its evolution, is in OU.

Well then I guess I was just told wrong when I asked back in March...my bad.

Are you referring how to get to the Suspect ladder? It's at the Smogon server. The information to access it manually is shoddybattle.smogon.com on port 50000. In the Find Tab hit the drop down box to play in either the standard, suspect, Uber, or UU ladders.
 
can someone give me a rough spread of how good you are compared to your shoddy ranking. I can't really see where my rating stands in the grand scheme of things. Something like

Rating < 900 novice etc...

Thanks! Yeah, I just needed the port to access it since it no longer shows up with the other servers.
 
I saw a Rain team Raikou, using HP Water and Thunder. It was said that it uses 100% acc Thunder and Rain boosted HP Water, I don't really know about the STAB part, but the things that would see an use for it are not used (NU maybe)
