Resource RU Open Team / Set Dump

[shiloh]

approved by mods

Hey with RU Open now over, congratulations to Ciele for winning it all n_n, thought it would be nice to have a place for people to drop their teams / sets that they used throughout RU Open. This is a very informal thing, so just post whatever ideas / teams that you used or thought of using in open, having replays would be nice as people appreciate seeing how teams and sets work.

So this is one of the first ru teams i made when prepping for ru open, and it was built around the idea of specs melo being an amazing wallbreaker. The basic idea is to break walls with specs melo, and trap things like registeel / revenge killers with dugtrio, and things like bronzong with spiritomb. I used a core of blastoise / registeel to set up and remove hazards as the entire team is grounded and spikes would hurt this team a lot. Virizion was the last mon I added and it was to take advantage of common cores like regi / mola and special viriz is still really underrated and unprepped for.

There were a few changes that I made after people started using it, namely Registeel > offensive Diancie which helps a lot for the venu matchup while helping me prep better vs bulk up braviary as well.

i wanted to build w/ rest dd scrafty since i was intrigued by it when 49 mentioned it so i decided to go w/ my own take of a team. i realized that this set needed something to hit poisons and just get some damage off on them before scrafty can sweep, so i went with sub cm diancie which is an underrated sweeper on its own as you can lead w/ it to bluff rocks and just start setting up and putting pressure on the opp while still maintaining the defensive capabilities that its typing gives it. cb duggy is to trap steels for diancie as well as diancies for scrafty. jelli is there to help against defensive teams as well as give the team a solid fighting resist for things like emboar / medicham that can threaten scrafty that have answers to scrafty and it can also keep up hazards / check birds in a pinch. rotom-c gives speed and an underrated sweeper, and registeel gives a flying resist thats more solid than non rock move diancie and helps vs spdef walls in general.

probably one of my favorite teams to use atm b/c cb tort is amazing at breaking walls in ru atm due to regi-mola picking up steam as the go to playstyle for free wins in open. you pair it w/ pursuit drapion in order to put pressure on bronzong which is one of the two switch ins in the tier for cb tort. shuca is great for luring in duggy since it does about 50 after shuca w/ lo and 70-80 w/ cb iirc. alomomola keeps tort healthy since wood hammer wears you down v quickly and it also is helpful since tort can take the elec moves aimed towards it. xatu gives some hazard control while also giving a fighting resist preventing spikes / rocks from a majority of the tier. diancie gives you a heal beller for clearing status off tort / mola / xatu / drapion since this team is so weak to status in general like scald burns. magneton rounds out the team w/ a brav check that isnt diancie as well as some speed control to pick off threats like duggy / virizion in a pinch.

This is another one of my favorite teams mainly because it uses a really underrated set in specs hoopa. I started off with specs hoopa since it can do insane things like OHKO a scarf drapion that switches in to pursuit trap most common sets. I had a bit of a scrafty fetish at the team and I was keeping it on a shit ton of teams and it fit pretty well on this one. You are able to abuse the common regi-mola archtypes as well as smash things like venu that think they can beat you. I added a registeel since I wanted a strong wall to be able to eat special and physical attacks, and a Flygon for some hazard control and offensive support with a life orb special set. Offensive scyther is a fun set that I started to try after I realized sd scyther is way to weak to function in ru, and an offensive 3 attacks pivot set is great for getting in hoopa and scrafty safely. Rotom was added at the end for some speed control, as well as an emergency check to +2 edge virizion.

fun spikes team built around getting up your spikes quickly then keeping them up w/ jellicent vs blastoise based teams and pressuring the flygon / defoggers w/ hp ice jolteon. the cool tech for the team is roar jolt as you can pressure switch ins really easily and get up lots of hazard damage w/ spikes and rocks. everything else on the team is standard, you can do like roar / toxic > ice punch on ryph if you want to put more pressure on things like blastoise which switch in. i also had scarf absol for the longest time but realized i really didnt need the speed and the utility life orb gives in switching up moves is much nicer imo.

Here are a few more teams that I made, but I dont think they are /as/ solid so I didnt write up descriptions for them, feel free to check them out and give me any advice though ^_^

Feel free to post anything you have here, here are a few places you can get sprites to include in your post to make them look nicer: http://fulllifegamer.bplaced.net/ and http://www.pokestadium.com/tools/sprites

 

[passion]

here is the bst pkmn team: http://pastebin.com/Si494Qn9 . it loses 2 a lot of things but it is still the best and fun. it is made to use sash and sturdy pkmn. originally it had a bulkier flygon set 2 defog better but band is probably fine since that set is the best. i hope all of my fans enjoy.

Swear I thought that spikestack team had Scarfsol before but thank the Lord you changed it that set is hot dong.

Well, while I had a pretty poor open run (got unlucky r1) there was this one team I wanted to show off

Used it vs Eyan 1st game of r1 where an untimely scald crit on Barbaracle ended the late-game clean (game was fun af tho; ftr this isn't the version I used back then, but optimized it a bit). Pretty fun to use team focusing on pressuring the opponent with two shell smash sweepers while being supported by a pretty solid defensive backbone consisting of Registeel, Alomomola, and Uxie. Omastar and Barbaracle were really the only two mons available. Both make for threatening setup sweepers late-game and have similar checks, allowing one to wear them out for the other. By then I figured stuff for Venusaur and Virizion would be really nice on this, while also providing me with a Fighting-type resist. In the case Uxie was too worn down to take hits, Dugtrio would also be available to take down other threatening offensive Pokemon and Registeel, which was bulky enough to take hits from +2 Omastar. Memento was chosen as the last slot option to facilitate setup for the smashers. Regimola was a nice defensive core that could generally handle a good portion of the metagame, so I decided to end it with that; as I had Stealth Rock with Uxie, I went w/ Curse regi so as to have a backup wincon. Overall, this team struggles with breaking past well supported bulky Water-types and some Fighting-type setup sweepers such as Gurdurr, Gallade and the most broken RU mon for the last year, Scrafty. I've been trying Mega Audino over Alomomola as it checks Gurdurr and Scrafty decently, while also providing Heal Bell support for Uxie and Registeel. Regen and Scald are hard to pass out on though :V

tl;dr double shell smash, broken trapper, and fat half-team

 

[col49]

didn't want to do this outright, but now that slams completely over, i figure this should be fine. i'll probably only be showing a little restraint in terms of what i do and do not post, so the consistency of them in your average games might fluctuate just a little. also, you'll notice a lot of them will have something like a water / steel / flygon defensive base, that's because its stupidly consistent and wins games if you don't get greedy. also some are decently old

the original dd rest scrafty team. this was built around something a little more loose defensively than your typical balance, striving to make pushes with the threat of your offensive dudes, some status platforms, etc. a lot of what you're doing with this team nowadays will involve you as the player shooting to playing with the intent to, say, pp stall venusaur's synths such that you can keep tspikes up to ultimately set up barb to clean their balance cleanly, which slightly deviates from the original nature of it (b.c this was coming up a bit before folks were using almost exclusively defensive set) but works all the same. uses gourgeist too, and that's a cool 'mon! the main gripe you'll be coming up against here is a.flame orb sigilyph can be pretty problematic with the team's choice to forgo pursuit in favour of the boosting dark (note: scrafty can eat a +1 air slash to knock and neutralize, if need be) and b.the role of bulky water is abandoned here. potential fixes are colbur gourgeist (not as necessary as it is on, say, jellicent now by a long shot, but ok), tect > tox on zong, lum + cross chop barb.

wanted a subbu gallade team, 'cuz its real dang cool; a sight tougher to tech for than braviary, keeps the sr weak outta play, and (after the fact, but relevant enough) exploits the tendency for balance players to rely upon venu as their premier fight resist. like the team prior, the defensive backbone on the looser end, even utilizing just a venusaur as the scald absorber (though the team packs a couple dudes capable of exploiting a water). i dug it on this kinda balance setting even more for being so readily facilitated by a pursuiter (which will generally find itself inserted for the sake of preserving defensive stability, but here offers secondary benefits), here sneasel for the furthered press v.bulky offenses and the fairy lure via iron tail. in running rotom-n (here both a useful status platform, additional fight / ground deterrant, and obvious braviary check) i'm also presented the leeway to run tect registeel w/o significant repercussions, validating the free turns it'd be yielding to breakers like emboar / sawk a lil more. yache venu helps in the removal of glalie / sneasel, whoa!

pearl wanted a cincinno team real bad, and i think it isn't nearly as bad as dudes would like to think; speed tier is super relevant, and while it needs stuff like spikes and prediction to make key pushes through regimola, it can absolutely spin something significant if your wincon is something more defined than beat'em til they don't get up. issue was really validating a decent context for it, since it'd be filling what was generally the pursuiter slot on a team such as this, so this was the end result. pursuit + rest tomb is a deffo unorthodox, but realistically it's meant only to come into play v.balance (scald absorber, means blastoise doesn't break it w/o going into torrent and thereby disallowing the spin) where having that sitting duck doesn't result in dangerous counterplay. ferro is a cool-ish 'mon if you can outsource a stronger venu switch (fear of knock) cuz it sits on the good hazard control w/minimal risk and can get the knock off on key dudes to set up one or both of cincinno slowing, the latter of whom is getting facilitated by cincinno better than you would figure out of application.

i'll admit, i was a lil bummed when nobody used this one, but w.e. this was built at the midway point of slam rounds, building off that initial aurorus 'hype' that developed in our little group of builders; i didn't like the subcm thing b.c it really only beat regimola (and specifically sr registeel) and lost to any other slight variation of steel + water, so i made a shot for something different. here you've got a pretty basic idea, with specs aurorus being the tool of the balance to facilitate lo cm sigilyph, which i think is a dude that gets overlooked on builds a bunch, especially now with people feeling some enhanced liberty in running slower drapions. the premise is pretty cut-and-dry, but its unique enough and its got twave registeel in a legit capacity, when's the last time you saw that off ladder? crazy haha

just an amalgam of dudes i think are overrated af, which is kinda why i liked finding a context for them that i dug haha. the idea for this was an fast-paced balance built to facilitate subcm melo, which throws a wrench into the usual regimola + pursuit builds nicely with proper support. i think the vast majority of it is self-explanatory, but to address the elephants in the room, a.ice beam blastoise both reduces the freedom with which relevant grasses switch into it (either does a venu pick-off or forces the synth more readily, brings virizion into rk range) and b.meadow plate eball venu is dope af if you don't wanna be synthing all the time while still being a good mon offensively (there are calcs but i'm a bum). hp flying magneton is absolutely usable depending on how much you're feeling the virizion weak, though you'd be pleasantly surprised how much less threatening it is in practice in any given situation.

so, i think that banded grounds are fucking ridiculous rn; ever since we lost tangrowth, most teams will combat the stronger grounds via stuff like bulky water + ground immune just by nature of the team restraints forced upon us, and that's super exploitable. as something i built for ict from playoffs on, i sought to do this via rhyperior in a format quite similar to the popular build from lighthouses , so no small amount of credit to him. hard to knock bits of it, with uxie being pretty much the objective best complementary sr, and sd drap being one of the most universally consistent partners to benefit from rhyperior's breaking potency. my shot sought to incorporate spikes support and a slightly more aggressive orientation, playing in spikes glalie and rotom-c > the venu (which does expand slightly on a fight weak, forcing you to, in w/the nature of the changes generally, play it a bit more offensively to seek returns). also uses yama, which is real freaking rad when you can pump up the risk associated w/mindlessly throwing mola at it to keep it down, beyond the obvious of checking ices while keeping pace.

the most basic balance you could ever look to, but i wasn't enamoured with any of the mono-attacking esca teams i've seen to this point, and there has to be one 'cuz its ridic atm. exploits the heck outta defensive venu, operates as a pretty consistent stallbreaker, etc. jellicent > mola here both cuts down on the reliance on escavalier to break balances and boosts activity such as to improve handle on stuff like opposing escavalier. everything here is, again, pretty self-explanatory, with all the techs being pretty easy to get in the context of it all i think.

Used by Snowy on his series against Feliburn.

Shell Smash Omastar has been my favorite win condition for a good amount of metagame stages in RU so I decided to make this team a while ago after Mega Steelix and Tyrantrum left, seeing the magneton in there and seeing that the dinosaur could 6-0 this with little to no problem so yeah. Shell Smash Omastar is the main focus of the team and to support a sweep with it. Decided to go the hazard stacking route since most of omastar checks are hindered by spikes, decided to go with accelgor over something like mega glalie since thanks to its outstanding speed tier it allowed me to have solid counterplay against anti-offense Pokemon like Sneasel and Scarf Medicham and Mesprit over Uxie cause I wanted more power in order to get lure Blastoise much more effectively with grass knot and keep my hazards (Accelgor stops flygon from defogging thanks to hp ice) since I didnt had a spinblocker of any sort or a defiant user to punish Flygon (which is only Braviary atm).

From there just slapped some good win conditions to break through most of Omastar checks and a secondary flying resist since Omastar doesnt like taking attacks until mid-to-lategame cause of how much of a double-edged sword weak armor can be. SD Virizion complements Omastar incredibly well, pressuring Steel-types and Bulky Waters by itself and allowing for Omastar to have an easier time cleaning. Scarf Magneton may seems odd but I really needed a better response against the likes of Sneasel and Mega Glalie (an ice resist) and this basically solved the issues I had with this spot for ages, starting using this beauty and I firmly believe it is pretty viable. Magnet Pull + HP Ground cause I wanted to trap opposing Magnetons since this team lacks any ground type or means to prevent the constant volt switching, good punisher for typical volt turn strategies. Last, wanted a Psychic-type check and another win condition cause why not. Added SD Absol cause it is incredible and gives me strong priority which is a great emergency button to have against faster Pokemon. There are other versions with Drapion around, which have its good things, like absorbing toxic spikes which can be gay.

A brave attempt at Hyper Offense in RU that Im happy with and that can still work to this day, despite HO being at the deeper end in viability on RU. Just remember to play aggresively and that it is actively possible to play it in this tier.

Cheers!

made this team for Ice Tea like right after he got out of tiebreakers - basically my idea was me telling him "claws mad nice" and hes like "use modest specs" and im like "why" and he said "cause i want it" so yeah. the set that dudes used in playoffs was with sub which is pretty cool but BruteForce i felt would be better on the kind of team i was planning. added registeel because its fucking registeel and checks most of the meta - twave could be cool in conjunction with clawitzer but i think with the popularity of sub bu braviary tbolt was better. sigi is my main wincon here. offensive cm is nice but i feel like with flame orb its better off vs more defensively oriented teams and fucking with diancie is always nice. the evs are basically so that ur guaranteed to kill viriz unboosted. venusaur is just general fat really lol, dumped off a 49 spread on it and called it a day. having a mola + fighting answer in one slot is nice for p much any team, and with sigi being able to cripple regi switch ins its real easy to wear it down in conjunction with knock, unless its rest (dont knock sr rest btw that set is lit). ebelt boar is an interesting set, since boar is able to retain a decent amount of power while being able to switch moves. ice tea used sucker in his game vs carloo, but i thought heavy slam is a neat choice for a diancie lure, especially since there's no hazard removal on this team. scarf tspikes drap is a neat set as well, adds a neat bit of utility in the set, since i generally feell its last slot isnt that useful anyway and the main point of drap on this team was for speed control. i built this pre duggy ban but its gotten better without its presence i feel. just watch out for banded grounds

i wanted to use dual priority hitmonlee, i think its pretty cool right now given that spin is essentially useless 85% of the time unless your team really needs it. diancie + mola is standard balance core, felt like dian was a little better vs the common lee answers and appreciates the pressure lee provides vs opposing regimola cores. scarf gon + rotom-c is a standard voltturn core as well, fucks around with offense and offers AmpleOpportunity for lee to get in. sigi....well i dont really need it but its a fighting answer nonetheless. honestly at this stage, you might be better off messing with flygons set and making mesp scarf hw. i mean i need a medi answer right? but those dont exist so idk lol

i have one more team but i dont wanna post it right now, ill wait till later maybe
