Implemented the check. TY Calm Pokemaster. This Ray is hungry for check 2 !
Dragon tail always breaks mew's sub if screens are not present. And in any case, you don't need to use it on mew, DM/FB to break the sub and dragon tail the recipient when mew BPs out.@Friar:Nope. BP Mew usually carry Sub and pass it along. Since Mew is faster than Rayquaza and D Tail wont be breaking sub any time soon, its a bad idea to switch in Rayquaza on BP Mew. He will RP while you fail to break his sub one shot and pass to something like Dialga. Potential GG.
This sort of overhype really doesn't belong in an analysis imo, especially while mewtwo exists.Say hello to the deadliest sweeper and wallbreaker of DPP Ubers.
Well? Can it be walled or can't it? You don't sound too confident...if you're second guessing your hype, you shouldn't be hyping.Base 150 attacking stats make sure nothing can really wall it
What sweeper can't demolish teams in a heartbeat should it be given a chance?Rayquaza still remains one of the most threatening sweepers in the Uber tier, and can demolish teams in a heartbeat if given the chance.
While rayquaza has a higher attack stat, Absol gets STAB on sucker punch.Rayquaza also has a huge movepool, which includes the strongest priority move in the game: ExtremeSpeed.
Rogue comma missed in proofreadThe choice of the last move, depends largely upon what you want Rayquaza to do.
Yeah, but I would rather be at the mercy of whatever dragon tail drags out after mew BP's than be at the mercy of what Outrage fails to OHKO when mew BP's. I do not think that it should be the main slash at all, but it is definitely worth a mention.@Gigity
-if you Draco Meteor to break the sub, you are essentially at the mercy of whatever switches in. Also I doubt Mew ever uses BP without Screens. Also Mixquaza is not a phazer, its a wall breaker. Its job is not with Mew but rather with Groudon and Lugia and co. If you want to finish off BP Mew just use Lugia / Groudon to Roar it off.
I was somehow under the impression that this was a 5th gen analysis. My mistake.Mewtwo lacks Psytrike in DPP Ubers. Relying on Ice Beam and Aura Sphere on coverage means even Blissey beats it. Ho-Oh and Kyogre both rape Mewtwo in DPP. Mewtwo lacks initial power in DPP.
I won't say Mewtwo is a better sweeper than Rayquaza even in BW. In DPP, Rayquaza clearly has more power and much deadlier moves.

It is a 5th gen analysis. However, if you had bothered to read properly you would have realised that the particular line refers to gen4(DPP).Say hello to the deadliest sweeper and wallbreaker of DPP Ubers.
Er isn't the best wallbreaker in DPP Ubers Specs Kyogre? There's also Deoxys-A to consider ... if nothing else, since all the Ubers are capable of wiping out teams in the blink of an eye, there would be no real "best" wallbreaker, would there (or it would be highly subjective)?It is a 5th gen analysis. However, if you had bothered to read properly you would have realised that the particular line refers to gen4(DPP).
Style problem in my opinion. I'd rewrite to "Rayquaza has a huge movepool, including the strongest priority move in the game (Extremespeed) as well as a fantastic ability ...".<p>Say hello to the deadliest sweeper and wallbreaker of DPP Ubers. Rayquaza arrives at the onset of the new generation to reclaim its crown as the most feared sweeper. Base 150 attacking stats make sure nothing can really wall it, and access to Dragon Dance and Swords Dance (two of the best boosting moves in the game) make Rayquaza even more threatening. Rayquaza has a huge movepool, which includes the strongest priority move in the game: ExtremeSpeed. Rayquaza also has a fantastic ability in Air Lock, which allows it to negate all types of weather and act as an excellent check to the horde of Pokemon who rely on it to sweep. Rayquaza does have its flaws; a weakness to Stealth Rocks and relatively thin defenses make it rather hard to switch in, and a sub-par base 95 Speed doesn't exactly help it sweep any better either. Regardless, Rayquaza still remains one of the most threatening sweepers in the Uber tier, and can demolish teams in a heartbeat if given the chance.</p>
TL;DR Mixed becomes the second set, CB gets removed.<%Hyperion> i was thinking of moving SD Ray below Mixed Ray
<%Hyperion> SD ray sucks this gen
<@trickroom> move mixed ray to first imo
<%Hyperion> and most SD Ray are mxed anyway
<%Hyperion> yeah
<@trickroom> mixed rayquaza is the hardest hitting one
<%Hyperion> that suits me too
<@trickroom> and nope arceus hates DM
<@trickroom> SD sucks
<@trickroom> Arceus rapes it alive
<%Hyperion> well Mixed Ray can just D Tail out any Arceus hoping to set up
<@trickroom> any arceus forme, steel, rock, normal, ghost, grass beats them
<@trickroom> and yeah
<%Hyperion> so
<@trickroom> but i like dragon tail
<@trickroom> outrage works too
<%Hyperion> Mixed / DD / SD / CB
<@trickroom> ok
<%Hyperion> yeah Outrage works once you have cleared the field off steels
<@trickroom> have you seen any CB ones though?
<%Hyperion> no...
<@trickroom> zekrom seems better imo
<%Hyperion> i think it should just be removed tbh...
<@trickroom> at least zekrom can ohko lugia coming in
<@trickroom> yeah drop it imo
<@trickroom> garchomp is faster, ground stab
<%Hyperion> er i'll make a post in the thread
<@trickroom> stucking in on outrage and being so frail and not fast
<%Hyperion> so that other members can weigh in..
<@trickroom> hello palkia anyone?
<%Hyperion> lol
<%Hyperion> it sucks really
<@trickroom> yeah
<@trickroom> never seen one to be honest
<%Hyperion> both ES and Outrage
<%Hyperion> say
<%Hyperion> Hi Ferro
<@trickroom> well arceus's ES is a lot stronger
<%Hyperion> want some free spikes ?
<@trickroom> well CB rayquaza can use Overheat
<@trickroom> but it's so freaking weak against non steels
<%Hyperion> and then become set up bait !
<@trickroom> yeah it sucks
<@trickroom> or you can battle it out?
<%Hyperion> you mean test it ?
<@trickroom> you want to battle now?
<@trickroom> yeah
<@trickroom> i can make one CB rayquaza team
<%Hyperion> ok
<%Hyperion> I'll fight you
<@trickroom> i already have a mixed rayquaza team
<@trickroom> go on beta
<%Hyperion> i'm on
* Destiny_Warrior (Mibbit@genosect.for.ever) has joined #ubers
* ChanServ sets mode: +v Destiny_Warrior
* Negator is now known as NegatorAFK
<%Hyperion> i think CB Ray sucked ass this match
<%Hyperion> and it was adamant
* Theorymon (~Theorymon@wynaut.have.a.Wobbuffet.vhost) has joined #ubers
* ChanServ sets mode: +ao Theorymon Theorymon
<@trickroom> and didnt do much
<%Hyperion> jolly would prolly have been worse...
<%Hyperion> yeah
<@trickroom> except killing ferro i guess
<%Hyperion> it let me get free spikes..
<@trickroom> jolly and adamant gets owned by arceus anyway
<%Hyperion> !_!
<@trickroom> adamant actually deals more damage lol
<&Theorymon> what mon is this
<%Hyperion> Rayquaza
<&Theorymon> what set
<%Hyperion> i was discussing with trickroom if we could remove the CB set
<&Theorymon> lol I actually wanted that removed last gen
<%Hyperion> i havent actually seen anybody ever using it
<&Theorymon> but fireburn and someone else overuled me
<%Hyperion> arceus tells it a big fuck you
<%Hyperion> as does ferrothorn
<&Theorymon> how much does Outrage do to Arceus
<@trickroom> depends on which arceus
<%Hyperion> yeah
<@trickroom> and whether rayquaza is adamant or jollly
<@trickroom> the power is massive but why wont i use ZEkrom
<@trickroom> who rapes Groudon and Lugia as well
<%Hyperion> who has better STAB coverage..
<%Hyperion> and ES is pretty predictable imo
<@trickroom> it is and isn't powerful at all
<@trickroom> also Zekrom has more bulk
<@trickroom> isnt SR weak
<%Hyperion> yeah
<@trickroom> and the usage hve proven it
<@trickroom> CB ray sucks
<@trickroom> SD ray is rare anyway
<&Theorymon> I agree please remove it lol
<&Theorymon> SD needs to stay though!
<%Hyperion> yeah
<%Hyperion> ok
<%Hyperion> so can i just paste this conversation in the thread ?
<&Theorymon> just mention CB in other options
<&Theorymon> sure
<@trickroom> at least SD ray owns Palkia lol
<%Hyperion> i was gonna write a huge homily...but i'm kinda lazy !
<&Theorymon> SD Ray also beats Giratina
<@trickroom> but DD ray beats Giratina too
<%Hyperion> also theorymon
<&Theorymon> yes but my point is that SD Arceus has lots of issues!
<%Hyperion> i was going to move Mixed to first after discussing with TR
<@trickroom> Giratina is extinct to be honest lol but i guess OHKOing Giratina at +2 is still something!
<&Theorymon> ehhh make it second
<%Hyperion> after DD Ray i s'pose ?
<&Theorymon> DD was the most common Rayquaza I saw
<&Theorymon> yeah
<%Hyperion> ok
