Enough to outspeed HippowdonHow much speed does Twave Melm tend to run?
Yes, it’s based off of the most current release of the main gamesDon't know if this is the place to ask. Based on what games this tier make the full list of pokemons? I know it's currently sword and shield, but, what happens if mega evolutions return to diamond and pearl remakes? Will it be added to OverUsed?

In line with the last question, in your opinion, which rank would have Stealth Rock Gliscor in the present VR? Thank you.
Run +Def with only enough speed to hit Adamant Rillaboom then, should do the trick a bit better than some other optionsCould I ask the recommended EVs for defog zapdos so it could check kartana and rillaboom alot more consistently? (Ik I could simply run corvi for that role but I'm kinda bored with it after using it as my only defogger while I also think parahax and some what better offensive pressure still seems nice enough to use it as an alternative)

What does Arctozolt usually run? Been a while since I played regularly and wanna piss around with hail.
Out of interest, is there a meta reason why it runs crash over Blizzard like is listed on lower tier analyses or is it just so that it’s not splitting EVs more? (I assume hippo?)Arctozolt @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Slush Rush
EVs: 252 Atk / 68 SpA / 188 Spe
Naive Nature
- Bolt Beak
- Icicle Crash
- Freeze-Dry
- Stomping Tantrum
This set is probably my favorite. Your first two moves are your go to STABs, Freeze-Dry lets you cover the matchup against Gastrodon and Swampert more effectively while providing a decent midground against bulky Water-type and Ground-type switch-ins. Lastly, Stomping Tantrum lets you nuke Heatran and Magnezone; the former is a key target to chip that can open up teammates like Dragapult while the latter resists your dual STABs. You have enough speed to outspeed Zeraora with Slush Rush, and you put the rest into Attack and Special Attack to provide yourself with as much mixed firepower as possible. Bolt Beak's sheer power is enough to offset the lack of a boosting item, so Heavy-Duty Boots are ideal so you maximize Arctozolt's breaking/cleaning opportunities.
I employ it on this Hail HO which has been shared in the thread earlier by Finchinator, if you'd like to see a team that utilizes it.

Obviously its down to personal preference and the rest of the team, but if I have a team with ample coverage for Pex and Urishufu (future sight slowking and Zeraora, in this instance) is bug buzz/safeguard > psychic on bulky Volcarona or are there other mons that make psychic worthwhile? Thanks!
Those would be the current OU sample teams, right here:I haven't played ou in a bit, are there any "generic" teams good for someone trying to get back into the metagame? Sorry if the question is weird
Urshifu-R is a potent wallbreaker in the tier being able to break past through plethora of teams with its STAB combination and priority move in picking off weakened targets with Aqua Jet, and giving itself momentum with U-turn when its switch-ins try come in on it. By far one of the deadliest things teams to prep for, while it can get punished by rocky helmet users with Surging Strikes, and other issues like Dragonite, Tapu Fini, Toxapex itself hates switching into Future Sight + STAB from Urshifu-R and Slowking needs a bit of defense investment to not get 2HKO from Surging Strikes and it hates switching into U-Turn. Notably Urshifu-S got banned so Urshifu-R is able to make it self the new and amazing wallbreaker from its former brother.haven't looked at anything in a while why is urshifu-r so high on vr i mean pex, slowking, and fini are right there in A+ and A. I always thought it was reeeaaallly annoying in teambuilder but whenever I used it it always got walled lol.
Heavy Slam Heatran is a little niche compared to the standard set but it reliably disposes of them with Magma into 2 Heavy Slams. Here's the set:How do you beat CM faries?
So, clefable, tapu fini and hatterene (niche but also not really, I saw someone using it in 1900s)
I tried taunt fini but idk if I'm using the right set alongside taunt
I would imagine that taunt heatran would beat them all quite easily, but it doesn't fit too well on to my team
So 3 questions really:
Are there any other options besides what I've mentioned?
What's the best set to use with taunt fini?
And lastly, once you get the taunt off, how do you actually beat them now that they have +1 in spdef and spatk?
