monotype teamdump wooo who the fuck cares


:deoxys-attack: :wobbuffet: :mewtwo-mega-x: :mewtwo-mega-x: :mewtwo-mega-y: :hoopa-unbound:
the typing itself is probably good with the holy trinity of broken offensive psychics however i am truly awful at building teams so theres a pbond mmy and an evoboost hoopa-u and a singular way to comeback from a losing position being innards wobb (no stag mmx doesnt count)
laddered to 1472 on paranormal seeker (definitely couldve gone higher but i got bored)

:groudon-primal: :groudon-primal: :groudon-primal: :groudon-primal: :ho-oh: :reshiram:
also a fine type but its heavily carried by pdon. main setup control is prank pdon + mg pdon, hooh is because of fissure immune + moongeist softcheck. pwhip on reshiram is an attempt to hit pert since the team gets 6-0d by it otherwise. the main problem i found was that speed control really sucked as i didnt want to use talonflame or wg pdon so it ended up hilariously weak to no guard; so i gave this up pretty early
laddered to 1368 on the burning world (same reason as psychic)

most broken monotype by a quite sizable margin, mostly because you actually get blobs to play with. regigigas > slaking here to softcheck mmy and darkinium z on innards is a secondary trick blocker and heals arc up in a pinch. the lopunny is a surprisingly potent wincon for what its worth, and i actually tried using it outside of mono normal to decent success.

i've posted this before so i wont go too indepth here but basically spam with the mon being spammed below 90 spe + actually usable priority + solid speed control options with other mons makes mono rock actually solid
laddered to roughly 1600 on sandswept peaks

:groudon-primal: :landorus-therian: :groudon-primal: :zygarde-complete: :swampert-mega: :garchomp-mega:
"why is this not pdon spam" it would be lame as fuck to build pdon spam twice in a row so i limited myself to 2 pdons
ground is in a weird spot where theres a bunch of decent to great mons but likewise to fire theres just not enough speed control. unlike fire however we actually have a solid scarfposter to play around so its not as bad as it is. idk why the lando isnt bounce and the bounce pdon isnt something that actually breaks here tho... pert pivots around and chomper is a phys breaker that can directly kill zyg. the no guard pdon is sick tho i'd keep that in the books for future use
laddered to like 1300 on petrichor v before i crashed out on some ladder bullshit and just started running mono normal instead

going into mono ghost i actually expected it to be pretty mid but to my surprise it actually performed quite well, maybe that just has to do with offensive ghost coverage just being broken? idk
anyways you might notice that the fastest mon here is actually mgar... how is this better speed control than some of our previous teams? turns out its actually not bad if you have an innards, an actually solid mg sash spectral guy, harvest (insanely broken) and this fuckass marowak. mimikium on innards tina-o over soulblaze is so we dont increase our defenses, while sparksurfer on harvest tina-o instead of sunraze snipes all of gyarados pogre and hooh. aegiblade is a surprisingly decent wallbreaker for what its worth, highly recommend at least checking the mon itself out maybe with different sets
laddered to 1684 on ghosting ph

:necrozma-dusk-mane: :kartana: :kartana: :necrozma-dusk-mane: :celesteela: :kartana:
...yes, there is kartana in mono steel. no, that doesn't mean mono steel is good, since kart is basically the only good offensive mon we get.
despite having the second best physical breaker in the game it feels impossible to break both fat and offense without completely giving up the matchup against one (and even trying to beat offense in itself is already a futile task with our selection of mons).
if you have any ideas on how to improve this, feel free to do so because i will not try to continue building nor will i playtest this ever

theres imposter solid breaking power and solid speed control so already this is one of the better types. mono dark actually has quite a number of usable mons but i went with agren spam since spam is broken when the mon is fast and versatile
the specs agren is hot garbage but its the best rker dark has. (still better than most types though) im not running the ransei set which has icicle spear because frankly icicle spear is an awful move that doesnt do anything. we might as well trick since that does something
other than that, the no guard agren evs is to ensure huge power agren always revenge kills non-scarf imposter with 0 rng. speaking of, this huge power agren is a pretty potent wincon, another one i'll keep in mind for future use

ok so the main problem with mono bug isnt the mon selection. its not even the typing itself either. the problem is that our offensive stats are too low to do anything. yes there's heracross but its far too slow to be anything but a half baked revenge killer. there's beedrill but frankly that mon is just pretty bad and i have no interest in using him. and then we arrive at pheromosa, who is decent but her offensive stats are just a tad bit too low for spam to work, like seriously you're telling me huge power sunsteel doesnt even crack FUCKING 80% on mega gengar???? nah man get me outta this shit
i did like 4 games before quitting because the above calc happened

:sceptile-mega: :kyurem-white: :rayquaza-mega: :giratina-origin: :dialga: :garchomp-mega:
dragon is fine. the typing is mid but there are so many usable mons its honestly insane. i have a personal vendetta against mono dragon though because my wifi disconnected 4 times and made me lose in completely unlosable scenarios
the sets are pretty standard-ish minus the last 2. dialga is the anti setup while garchomp returns from mono ground with a vengeance and acts as the raw unboosted power of this team. team's quite weak to no guard though thanks to the overreliance on sash which i surprisingly haven't done so far when building monotype teams considering i only build offense

ph moderators delete onelines challenge (please i'm begging)

anyways all of the sample submissions are bad so it's random team time!!!

https://pokepast.es/10b9313207c2b80e cfz good more cfz more good also ttar is a fun guy. There'd be a real yveltal improof but that's surprisingly hard to do outside of innards blob and I didn't want to do that so it's bond.
https://pokepast.es/b276ead4549544a4 mmx funny unfortunately it isnt *really* improofed but ltbts over stoked and yvel over doom works
https://pokepast.es/4cc7fbc5f63d10bd big doom + big cfzs unfortunately i went too far down the rabbit hole so its defensive doom and its a group improof so my entire team loses to doom also it's ghostspam and darkspam and psyspam at the same time so you explode to opposing darks. not a serious team plus no removal is really bad, can be fog ttar if you're clinically insane or just mg kart but that seemed too samey.
https://pokepast.es/48cfdc335b2703da if you couldn't tell i think leppa is good and i agree with ac about mmx (giratina just fits here a lot lol)
https://pokepast.es/42f7650bfcd0d899 unfortunately it loses to kyogre steela stall if you accidentally queue 0 attack giratina so you can't trade it for innards and then your opponent wins the speed tie when you thought they'd fear innards

to the sample submitters: please make sure your team is actually good this applies most to Yeetoos and hello1433 and is the reason why these aren't intended for samples, you can post a team without it being a submission

Remember to make the mmx adamant instead of naughty I just forgot to while making this and don't want to do the rest.

^ guys if your team didn't hit 1550 at least on ladder you should question whether this is actually a good team or if you're about to fall off an elo cliff and the team is the only thing keeping you in mid ladder
anyway since that person also expressed their distaste for one liners here's a team that you can use to troll people on ladder (not a sample submission)
 
PH Moderators delete onelines challenge (please Ransei Eyeos NToTheN TheCreatorOfBullsht this isn't allowed and is clogging the thread)

Since I want to avoid annoying myself, let's analyze exactly why hello1433's team will never be a sample. Hint: It's not because it's mbee offense, it's because it's bad. I will also dump some random teams again because why not?

First off, the bee itself. U-Turn is cool into offense because you OHKO mmy and do like 50-60 to mmx so you can effectively revenge kill them plus play rough always OHKOs mmx, forcing it out and pressing u-turn so you can keep momentum. I mean, you're huge power adamant, obviously you can guarantee to force out pokemon you have super effective coverage for.

252+ Atk Huge Power Beedrill-Mega Play Rough vs. 252 HP / 252 Def Mewtwo-Mega-X: 378-446 (90.8 - 107.2%) -- 43.8% chance to OHKO

Never mind, every time you go to kill MMX you are gambling on a less than 40% chance after accuracy to actually kill it. It's not like you have hazards either so this will always be the roll unless you get previous chip which isn't exactly the easiest thing to get on mmx with this squad (more later).

So your speed control can't really kill mmx. Well, your wonder guard can swap into it to score some chip with u-turn, putting it into range. Because of course you picked a WG who can improof bee like kyogre or ferrothorn or maybe even scizor who would die to the good set pressing light that burns the sky after rocks score crucial damage and let bee revenge.

Never mind, your wonder guard is maud so you take 70 percent minimum just from photon and LTBTS cleanly OHKOS. Also, you don't improof beedrill. Also you're the most passive set of all time apparently. All of these sample submissions have a basically do nothing mon, is this obligatory on low ladder offense? Give up all your pressure for fun?

Well, at the very least if maud doesn't improof bee, you can just sack innards to it to improof, that's fine on HO. I'm saying this because of course you used innards blissey or even chansey because those are the good sets.

I'm skipping gengar for the narrative shut up

Ok so our max defenses innards lunala can't take out imposter. It's also photon ghiest fairy which is close to sunsteel ghiest fairy except instead of killing meloetta and muk and blobs and houndoom (tbf +2 mmm probably dunks on this) you actually get walled by them instead. Imp of this also totally just either forces a 1f1 with this or kills it and then forces a trade with regigigas or gengar's sash because it still. isn't. improofed. by. your. wonder guard pokemon.

Speaking about that gengar, we have modest sword mgb spore smash gengar like this is 2023 again. Finally it's actually improofed by maud but another special guy who loses to melo/muk :trode: :zonger: :row: truly a moment of all time. It's nice for the spam matchup I guess but this is doing nothing ever into stall or literally any team with big priority that just hits you as you set up. scarf pbond mmx victim too Very dated set but it's fine I guess, it does successfully cope a couple of mus. Melo walling two mons is probably fine considering how its bee fodder. That's really not that much of the team anyways.

Ok so it walls the regigigas too and this might be the worst set I've ever seen. WG espeed multiattack spectral? Arceus did not conceive of this set when making USUM PH. Speaking of arceus, just use arceus. Also why are you hasty? Giving up free damage to sunsteel users.

Finally, speaking about sunsteel users we have the first good, relevant set on the entire team in pdon except it's lonely. Just use naughty
:blobsad:

Genuinely good set except it literally isnt improofed so you just sack about two thirds of regigigas's health assuming it doesn't smash a second time and then thief. Alternatively, you sack gengar down to sash and then spore. Is it really that hard to just use heatran or something? Hell, kyogre would be better than maud here if it weren't for the gengar because it's fat fuck specially so freeze dry doesnt do half and then scald does one trillion percent or something.


Overall, this team has three pokemon improofed by hopes and dreams, two pokemon hardproofed, and one pokemon who does nothing anyways but imp gets free healing. You also have 3 pokemon who simply aren't optimized, 3 pokemon who can't hit meloetta, the entire team is semi-walled by kyogre if you don't get lucky on sleep turns or high-roll on Z, muk is horrible for you, nothing on your team outspeeds MMX... There's just so many weaknesses that I genuinely cannot imagine a real team losing to this, especially not a real team with melo. It's fun to dunk on zenith mode or samples if they're bad but this loses hard enough to every real playstyle that it's probably easier to make a good bee team by deleting everything and starting over.

my solution would probably be mmx-> maud, taunt tspikes gar -> mg gar, arceus -> regigigas, innards blissey-> lunala, lonely -> naughty.

random teams as promised

https://pokepast.es/90fd3cde0fa5d032 so it looks like dark psychic ghost spam but actually that's a normal!! yeah its aerobee slop but with certified clicker mmx
https://pokepast.es/419c642c197f7425 steam eruption? are you insane? yes??? my opponents will go insane after trying to use wg ho-oh or heatran or houndoom to check this because they saw protean and thought sunsteel ghiest fairy +2 252 SpA Protean Mewtwo-Mega-Y Steam Eruption vs. 248 HP / 252+ SpD Ho-Oh: 516-608 (124.3 - 146.5%) -- guaranteed OHKO boom that's a free kill and now the stall user is more like a stall loser haha gottem. Also big tyranitar is good and i fucking love leppa berry

That's all for today but please delete one liners it makes it unfair to people who have to actually make teams to ask mods to delete them or else they're also making one liners, fortunately the sample submissions are bad enough to sustain asking for deletes for a while

the mmx is honey gather lol change that
 
PH Moderators delete onelines challenge (please Ransei Eyeos NToTheN TheCreatorOfBullsht this isn't allowed and is clogging the thread)

Since I want to avoid annoying myself, let's analyze exactly why hello1433's team will never be a sample. Hint: It's not because it's mbee offense, it's because it's bad. I will also dump some random teams again because why not?

First off, the bee itself. U-Turn is cool into offense because you OHKO mmy and do like 50-60 to mmx so you can effectively revenge kill them plus play rough always OHKOs mmx, forcing it out and pressing u-turn so you can keep momentum. I mean, you're huge power adamant, obviously you can guarantee to force out pokemon you have super effective coverage for.

These teams look fun. I've always been a fan of Protean MMY. Is Life Orb necessary for rolls against Ho-Oh or something? Have you tried 4 attacks Protean MMY? It used to be a lot better when the meta was more balance-oriented cause fast threats like Pheromosa weren't as common but I think it could still be usable here. I do think the Ttar might be a bit of a momentum sink though which is unfortunate on a very offensive team like this.

lorb lets you get calcs like ohkoing muk/steela with sunsteel/geist which can be useful, sash is better overall though imo just because of how useful sash is

4 attacks protean mmy sounds interesting (no setup spore protean mmy as well), though setup is likely more worthwhile. makes you a more consistent breaker by letting you slot in more techs like elec/fighting move (or just sleep hax em lol, likely possible after a bit of prior chip), though the sweeping ability seems more worth it.

idk how much of a momentum sink ttar is here? ltbts/dbond let you not be completely passive though i do think you could try to fit something like encore/spore on this type of set, not sure how important pursuit is here
 
someone else i forget helped make these team's.
Me.

Anyway, I have a team. Before the reapers come for me, no, it is probably not a sample submission (though honestly it might be able to be maybe).
Welp, let's get into it.

https://pokepast.es/804fe814daba5760

So...I don't remember how to do the fancy formatting, so this is gonna be a wall of text to explain the team. I guess.

PDON: It's my PDon set, the STag one. TArrows is the big dumb STAB button that does exactly what you think it does, and also dunks on low ladder. If this team is run in higher ladder, TArrows can probably be switched for another move like SSS or MMM or something. V-Create is the very stupid big STAB move, that is the main button to do stuff. I experimented with Sacred Fire for a better Sash Kart MU, but then I added MGar and that was no longer a issue. LSF is the move that kills MMX and MRay and MNec(If anyone uses it) and other mons weak to Fairy. It also looks very funny to use. Trick ensures that I can do something once PDon kills a MMX or something, and lets it do something to bulky mons. Improofed by both WG mons on the team, if SSS is used over TArrows, the Improof is weakened, but not gone, and if MMM is used, MAud is the Improof.

MAUD: It's the rat. What else to say. I could see Magic Coat over Rocks for a better Impostor matchup, and better matchups into NG, but rocks are really good, and I could not find a spot anywhere else for it, so I just put it here. Safety Goggles because fuck Spore, but I could maybe see a Z move to serve as a Trick sponge, but idk. If you make the second WG mon also support, then it should probably go there. Also, because I have space here, if a Mon is not Innards or a Blissey, run 248 HP EVs to take slightly less from percentage damage like rocks.

KART: I could maybe see a moveset change on this thing, mainly Ice Shard, because I have not used it VS a Zygarde for a while now. Whatever move you choose, make sure the Improof with MAgg stays true. Mainly a Innards check, but it also seems to have a tendency to be a win-con in longer games. I have no clue why, but it works. Sunsteel because duh. Wood Hammer because without it MPert just kinda walls the entire team, plus it hits Slowbro and MGyara and what not. Ice Shard is meant for Zygarde, but it has not happened for a while, so idk. Shell Smash for Shell Smash reasions. Sash because duh.

POGRE: I don't know, but it seems to work. If any Mon would be changed, it would probably be this one, but it does do its job. Steam Eruption is to kill that one Mold Breaker Shift Gear SSap PDon, Bug Buzz to hit Melo and all that stuff, Moongeist because...d u h, and Shell Smash because...d u h. I could see a support WG mon going here, but I don't know. I just don't know. Sash ensures MMX doesn't just eat you alive in one turn.

MAGG: WHY DO PEOPLE PUT MLIX OVER THIS WTF. Anyway, it is bulky, it is a Steel type, it is resistant to Ice and Grass (Unlike some mons) and resists all the stuff Steel does. Core Enforcer for Harvest, and it also can technically chip Sash mons. Haze because you can't spell PrankHaze without Haze. Reflect because I have missed Will-o-Wisp one to many god-damn times. Shore Up because it is the powerhouse of the cell. Goggles because fuck Spore, but this one should probably stay.

MGAR: This is canonically the ghost of Gigas after the horrible accident. Scarf PBond Moongeist is the button clicker VS Kart and MMX and MMY(sometimes) and Deo-S and all the other mons it sounds good into. Searing Shot I have not used very much, so I would not be surprised if it is changed to some other move because Kart dies anyway. It is mainly for Scizor, but PDon generally catches that. Ice Beam for Zygarde and MRay. U-Turn seemed so cool, but I have not really ever had the chance to use it because WG catches me so much with it, so I could see Trick here as well.

So...that's it. If anyone would like to tear this team apart in a reply, be my guest. So...uh...not sure how to end this.

rip that means Ransei needs to lock in…

lorb is cool for going from under 75% with steam to 80 min on hooh plus guarantees OHKO on heatran unboosted plus as ptoast suggested damage is fun (+2 sunsteel always kills Melo vs never kills Melo).
4a or 3a spore sounds interesting but I personally prefer the instant wins +2 mmy can get versus stuff like those stalls where your mmy answer is wg or prank hooh and then it takes 80% and they forfeit lol.
ttar does sink momentum a bit but leppa LTBTS off 165 atk obviously helps with this + you can go glare over ssap. Encore/Lkiss/Spore are also probably fine. Pursuit is pretty important to the set, I made it to hard punish pbond gengar for actually clicking moongeist and pick off that annoying psysurge spam on ladder and then backwards improofed MMX with it (which is why it’s v-create)

I’ll upload a post tearing apart the other teams later ZeldaFan1, I actually wrote this but then turned off my computer which deleted it and since it was like six paragraphs per team (I was VERY bored) I didn’t feel like writing it again

anyways tyranitar is really cool and CFZs are really good so I might try some harvtar shiest

I don’t really know how to end this either so hello1433 ladder is a false matrix, if you spam enough games at it eventually you win enough to get high ladder because 90% of the players suck which is how Zeus got #1. Also viola lunala built one of the teams lol explains 248 HP mg gar. We got blind leading the blind in USUM PH before GTA 6

finally uhhh it has come to my awareness that one of my teams has zap cannon mgb gengar. Please make one of these fissure/sheercold.

apparently I got to the 29th page? Can I say first? Couldnt have done it without the spam of obnoxious oneliners shoutout Yeetoos and the others

Hell there Dark Wall if this is you (That nickname seems familiar, also I am not blind) ALSO If your gonna dissect team's at least provide constructive criticism on HOW to fix said teams otherwise your just being a prick IMO doing such actions without at least Proving some Teambuilding TIPS is just Idk Welp Idfk anymore ladder is shit Edit: Buddy do you just like being a prick? like just pointing out every FLAW in a team? well post one of YOUR teams here if you belive yourself SOO good at least provide proof of having the teambuilding knowledge to be disecting teams like this
 
honestly i'm not against ladder because the post phpl ladder is pretty much the only ladder i've ever known so this feels very normal, the only ladder i played before was low ladder which doesn't follow any meta shifts
also if you've been wondering why i always call fc :yveltal: BYRD its because of this team which i peaked 1500 with and really liked
noice! though bleak blast is weird?
 
ZeldaFan1 can we get a fanfiction about one liners? I swear they’re scarier than coil megagross…

Seriously though Ransei please either moderate your thread or have someone else do it who’s actually interested, this is going from “slightly annoying, just enough to joke about” to “this is actively ruining PH thread”

Aside from that, it’s time for me to make this NOT a one liner by posting some teams! Except this time it’s only two teams. Eyeos’s suffering will never end as this is a DOUBLE SAMPLE SUBMISSION!!!!

https://pokepast.es/00b3af74e7e97cc0

so I was larping around with ptoast (my goat btw PenultimateToast fried me on ladder while I was using this) and they kept suggesting to make my sets more insane. This led to the reinvention of Deoxys except it only clicks zmoves. I later added yveltal to the paste while theorycrafting yveltal sets

Later that day, I was messing around in sr2 trying to make viable sets for a different teamdump. I eventually decided on trying leppa pdon sets but couldn’t get one that I didn’t feel was an inferior MMX or MMY. Ghastlypixie I think? Suggested using magic guard or wonder guard, which made me realize that mold breaker existed and add that to the squad. After moldy v-create and smash I thought that slowbro and other waters would be a problem so I added stoked sparksurfer because para is broken then added let’s snuggle forever because it hits dragons especially zygarde. Unfortunately you can’t use a physical electric Z-move and OHKO slowbro neutrally I believe so you kinda arent improofed with big innards but also just v-create spam versus imposter then innards it or revenge with Deoxys idk. With yveltal, pdon, and Deoxys on the squad it was gonna be innards improof so I asked phcord for silly innards sets and Electra passed this one which is relatively funny not sure how good it is though because I only needed to escape pursuit once and it left me at 25% which is pretty much useless.

After that I just slapped MMX and gengar and called it a day tbh very boring but if it works it works. The proof I have of this being at least slightly sample worthy (it isn’t) is that it got to top ten (rank 7 highest 1703 iirc) without me needing to think much. I always got cteamed by the time I’d try to climb past 170X though which was irritating.

you have weak matchups into like everything lol. If you guess the set wrong it’s probably over. Also if people use random unsets like scarf no guard and focus sash wonder guard kartana you probably just lose a Pokémon. No guard as a whole is tough too try to get tspike and fimp if it’s Deoxys, trade something and fimp into gengar, or tspike and fimp mmy. Others exist too but that’s case-by-case. Pbond gengar needs you to make every play right or you probably lose. Fakespeed evoboost slaking (kinda fake ngl try to do something well not two things poorly) forces innards.

It’s a double sample submission but the other one is just a modified version because I wanted eyeos to endure more. This one is less silly which annoys me but it’s better so whatever.

https://pokepast.es/ead5a88421767284

holy shit a core that actually beats no guard (fissure loses to yveltal sheer cold gets swapped around with innards + groudon)

You totally lose to multiple OHKO which is a fraud set so just play better. It’s basically the same team so I’ll just explain that Deoxys EVs are to guarantee OHKO on imp with any attack.

Happy testing, Eyeos ! I hope you like seeing the phrase “ate its leppa berry!” Because that happens a lot here.

What the fuck is a stall
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7purehackmons-2481256158


this is not ever making it to samples lmao

ps oneliners: please delete them I’m making a whole stockpile of teams and some random with a ladder peak of 1500 rolls up and posts ten words and makes my dubious teams annoying to read because you have to scroll up past little Timmy’s funny haha remark or random question that could have been on the discord or the PS! Room.
 
OK things are started to get a little bit heated so I'm just going to step in.

Mewtwo's Greatest Soldier we've seen you complaining about one-liners and such. I do agree but it's not nearly as bad as you've been making it out to be. Short posts are fine as long as they add constructively to the conversation which most posts have. Despite the name, when we discourage "one-liners" we aren't literally discouraging posts that are one line long, although yes ideally there would be more. Just for example, take the short posts replying to rightclicker's monotype teams post. Would the posts be higher quality if there was a little paragraph about the team accompanying them or something else? Sure. But they are hardly worth deleting in their current states because they do contribute to the discussion. There are posts on here that aren't constructive and probably warrant deleting but the reaction seems disproportionate. We do hear you though that some of the discussion on here might be better suited for the PS! room or discord and we agree.

Ahh Yes double submission to make Eyeos test more samples LOVELY! also No I will not stop with the one liners yes im just teasing yes im gonna post the most annoying team to have eyeos test!
Viola ~ Lunala ^﹏^ What was with that response? I understand you might be frustrated at their complaining but please try to be more civil than this. If you have a problem with them work it out in DMs, not in a public thread.

Also usum council tests teams not just eyeos idk where this idea that only eyeos tests sample submissions got started ;-;
 
as much as i wanted to post this wonderful thing diemond35472 said on its own
Screenshot 2025-11-16 12.09.35.png

i'm also getting annoyed with all these one-liners just like gloomstalker is so i won't post a one-liner and instead i'm posting a few shit teams i made while i was probably on something. (these are NOT sample sumbissions, eyeos you're finally free)

:solgaleo::gengar-mega:::audino-mega::ho-oh::chansey::chansey: wanted to build balance with mg solg as an alternative to pdon as it has nice defensive utililty, stab sunsteel and solg z (ndm is ugly and evil and slow and not as bulky and should probably be like c tier atp). please don't calc how much freeze-dry to zyg, but you could probably go volt tackle instead to hit stuff like gyara harder. ho-oh is the improof instead of heatran because i hate fissure, but 4x rocks weakness is pretty sad. rest of the team should be self-explanitory.

:deoxys-speed::kartana::kartana::chansey::chansey::chansey: idk what i was thinking with this one. deo sets hazards and clean offensive teams once innards/fakespeed have been killed or innards™ed, both kartana are meant to kill things (volcanion isn't real, it can't hurt me), imp + dual innards also help vs offense. the level 71 one means you can always die to min attack pbond gar's first hit of u-turn while still being able to run eviolite so you don't also fold to special moves, unfortunately it coincidentally barely doesn't kills slaking.

:solgaleo::gyarados-mega::zeraora::audino-mega::lunala::lunala: idk man

:diancie-mega::steelix-mega::gengar-mega::audino-mega::chansey::chansey: diancie kills things, steelix improofs diancie, rest is self-explanitory. when i posted the diancie set in a side hackmons related server aidan amoongus thought it was for bh which is kinda funny.

:gardevoir-mega::steelix-mega::gengar-mega::audino-mega::chansey::chansey: same team but with gardevoir, since it gets big stab psystrike to snipe rarer stuff like pogre and wg blob, not really much else to say.

are these teams good? probably not tbh, but my ph mindset is currently building sheist teams. they're super fun to use though.


:zygarde-complete::lunala: how did this make its way onto my post
 
OK things are started to get a little bit heated so I'm just going to step in.

Mewtwo's Greatest Soldier we've seen you complaining about one-liners and such. I do agree but it's not nearly as bad as you've been making it out to be. Short posts are fine as long as they add constructively to the conversation which most posts have. Despite the name, when we discourage "one-liners" we aren't literally discouraging posts that are one line long, although yes ideally there would be more. Just for example, take the short posts replying to rightclicker's monotype teams post. Would the posts be higher quality if there was a little paragraph about the team accompanying them or something else? Sure. But they are hardly worth deleting in their current states because they do contribute to the discussion. There are posts on here that aren't constructive and probably warrant deleting but the reaction seems disproportionate. We do hear you though that some of the discussion on here might be better suited for the PS! room or discord and we agree.


Viola ~ Lunala ^﹏^ What was with that response? I understand you might be frustrated at their complaining but please try to be more civil than this. If you have a problem with them work it out in DMs, not in a public thread.

Also usum council tests teams not just eyeos idk where this idea that only eyeos tests sample submissions got started ;-;
Sorry I was just trying to cool things off with a joke my apologies if anything came of as rude but things have been worked out also atp Its a running Gag that Eyeos is the only team tester
 
Speaking of teams I have another sample submission https://pokepast.es/d53f8a672d92e883 this team I find has enough coverage to get around most of the common teams on ladder while being able to not just get swept by a team of six blobs if played right and I have dont pretty well with this team and while theres obviously most likely problems that could be picked apart im gonna let the people of this thread do that! YES feel FREE to put your opinions of this submission but not to derail from the topic of this team it has A Huge Power MMX that coverage that let's it hit alot of things (Don't try hitting Sableye tho cause you won't be able to) and for things you can't just hit with MMX theres MMYwith moonblast to force Those Dark Types out Kartana is WG to make sure NG doesn't just sweep you if the blob was already sacked Psysurge obviously keeps Prio mons like Triage ray from going ham and the blob is standard blob stuff

I and the rest of the USUM Council have acknowledged that our resources haven't been updated in a very long time, so we've looked into changes being made to update things to the current state of the metagame and what draws players in. The VR Update is currently being worked on and will be posted some time in the near future. For now, we have sample teams updated.

After lots of consideration to the effectiveness of submitted teams as well as their overall appeal in the meta from incoming players, here list of teams and updates:

Enjoy!
Upon reconsideration on our part as USUM Pure Hackmons council, we will now be replacing the Bird Council Yveltal Spam with Child of Night's Primal Kyogre stall team, which has done impressively on the ladder and against notable players alike.

:chansey::blissey::sableye-mega::kyogre-primal::celesteela::zygarde-complete:
Primal Kyogre Stall by Child of Night

It'll be placed on the bottom of the samples list as it is the now the most overall defensive sample team.

On the side note: Sample submissions are now closed for the time being - They've gotten far too out of hand on this thread while being left open indefinitely. We may still be looking into making future teams sample worthy in the future but not on this thread.

yes finally someone else understands mbee's capabilities as a sweeper. i really thought i was the only one who uses mbee this why but either way yes yes yyyyyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssssss.
First of all we are usually trying to avoid posting one liners with barely any useful imformations.

And I do Like mbee but its not really capable to be a setup (or) sweeper. The natural high speed tier does help a lot against offense and balance, while first impression grants its ability to revenge kill even faster foes without sash on. To me this is more like a fast offensive pivot.

To avoid filling up the thread with sht post I'm gonna post sth informational right here which is more sht ass sets yes

imp sweep.gif
Look familiar?
Scenes like these are happening all over the galaxy right now.
You could be next.
That is unless you make the most important decision of your life.
Prove to yourself that you have the strength and the courage to be free.
Join...the Imp killers.

so here is some (underrated) imp killer sets

Deoxys-Attack @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Huge Power
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 SpD / 252 Spe
Hasty Nature
IVs: 0 Def / 30 SpA
- Light that burns the Sky
- Photon Geyser / Searing Sunraze Smash
- Pursuit
- U-turn

As we can easily see its a simple imp trap. On the other hand Hp deoa isn't so bad if you ignore the lack of power. This does work against a lot of imp, but outside of being a imp trap its prob just only useful on psyspam hos. iirc its the only shed shell imp trapper

Zygarde-Complete/Slowbro-Mega/Steelix-Mega/Blissey/Insert whatever wall @ Shed Shell / Safety Googles
Ability: Arena Trap / Shadow Tag
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def / 252 SpD / 252 Spe
Impish Nature
- Shore Up / Strength Sap
- Spectral Thief / Spikes / Defog / U-turn
- Perish Song
- Taunt / Imprison

Also pretty simple trap, shts on passive non pivot sets.

Again people are still hella underestimating impostor...
