Cresselia and Yanmega need to go and fast. Notice how they cover each others weaknesses for the most part?
<snip>
We have Sandslash and Kabutops for viable spinners. Neither are weak to Bug (Kabutops resists it) and are quite the tanks.
You know, I might really enjoys this meta since Trick Room looks actually viable. Does anyone have experience with it? I mean, there isn't much to tank a Rampardos Head Smash followed by Thick Club Marowak and Zwelious Outrage. The only problem: what the hell is going to set up TR that won't die to Yanmega? (Klingklang go!)
Can someone please clarify which pokemon have moved out and into the tier?
Klingklang used Gear Shift!
Nothing has moved into or out of the tier yet, as no official usage stats have come out for a long time. Most of what has been talked about are just assumptions based on previous usage stat trends.
Speaking of Klinklang, has anyone else tried it out yet? It may not be the best thing ever, but it is a legit contender in RU. Its main problem is lack of coverage, specifically on Steel types, but if you can remove Steels, it can be a force. Getting 492 Atk and 558 Spe after just one turn of set up is amazing.

Ok so I've started playing RU yesterday and I gotta say it's a lot of fun! It's great to use Pokes such as Cresselia, Yanmega, and Golurk (amazing wallbreaker). Plus I like battling rain dance teams, it reminds me of DPP OU and UU.
Now to what's broken: Cresselia and Honckrow. The former is just amazingly bulky and its Sub + CM set is simply amazing, destroying everything once Munchlax is gone (or Cress is the last mon). The latter can usually net 2 KOs per game and it's really difficult to wall because of its sheer power.
I haven't had any trouble against Yanmega because I always find Stealth Rock weakening it is enough to put it in KO range. I'm also using it on my team and I have to say it's usually one of the worst mons on my team.
If you are having trouble with honch USE STEELIX OR RHYPERIOR steelix walls non mixed sets and rhyperior just walls it. as long as they are ru i dont see it going.
Use Choice Band Reckless Hitmonlee. Spam Hi Jump Kick. Watch everything die. It's seriously fucking awesome. I'm currently running a spam Fighting-type Pokemon team with an Absol for Pursuit support. It's awesome.
ghost type says hi
Pursuit says hi right back.
