I prefer Rhydon to T.tar on this roster. Only reason I see for running Tar is to check Jynx if you don't have sleep talk on Raikou or Lax (and you do on Raikou), or to scout ghosts if you're running a mono and you're not? ‍ Move sets don't make a lot of sense to me, you've got no sleeper, no...

Pretty good, I like this team. They may be a rarity but poison types have an easy time against this though. Venusaur & Tentacruel out speed everything except Raikou who is already under immense pressure to tank electric attacks plus sleep puts it out of commission. Victreebel speed ties with...

Yeah I'd say that's a fairly accurate assessment. Tyranitar switches into curse phaze Lugia fairly safely and crunch isn't nice when it starts dropping special defense. It can be hard to then bring a check in for t.tar repeatedly when it gets a free switch into Lugia all game. It can be good...

Very nice write up, nothing really to add to that. Mew > Mewtwo > Zapdos > Lugia > Mew is probably the most notable circle of match up advantages. Swords dance Mew is great for setup but isn't that easy to bring into play, especially as taking a status can kinda ruin it. Curse phaze Lugia was...

More ubers is always welcome by me. A "Poke Cup" style tourney for gen 2 could spice things up a bit. Allow OHKO (yeah yeah I know OHKO is the basically Pokemon equivalent to Colonal Gaddafi) but with the level restrictions implemented in Poke Cup (50-55) I think it's sufficiently nerfed to...

Yeah ending a game without machamp or spikes down can get a bit sticky. It's not really about trying to end the game to suit the electrics, rather they're disposable less any specific check you need to keep them around for. Loosely speaking its more all about setting up the game around Machamp...

Stall, passive (slower games) Raikou @ Leftovers Ability: none EVs: No EVs No Nature Nature IVs: 14 HP / 28 Atk / 26 Def - Thunder - Hidden Power [Water] - Rest - Sleep Talk Certainly my preferred Raikou. Just always able to stay active in the game with practically limitless ability to...

Sweeper, aggressive (medium speed games) Raikou @ Leftovers Ability: none EVs: No EVs No Nature Nature - Reflect - Thunderbolt - Roar - Rest Sweeper team a little lacking in recovery moves so it benefits from screen support to help you set up without dying. Targets the same as previous with...

Boomer, aggressive (fast games) Raikou @ Leftovers Ability: none EVs: No EVs No Nature Nature IVs: 14 HP / 28 Atk / 26 Def - Thunder - Hidden Power [Water] - Roar - Rest Roarkou to get shuffling their team up from turn 1, figure out what's on their roster. Gives you something to force spike...

Raikou, Zapdos, Cloyster, Snorlax, Machamp, Steelix Provides "the golden trio". Provides excellent tools for fighting against the golden trio. Covers a broad mid range spectrum which can accomodate fine tuning from stall to aggresive to spike shuffle to explosion. As far as I can tell it...

Just ribbing ya bro ;) your project, take it whichever direction you please, world's got plenty enough naysayers already. I just wasn't sure if you were being entirely serious with that one

Ban bright powder, focus band, berserk gene & quick claw in item clause because they "rely on luck"? Really? People actually said that? I'm not even sure you're joking anymore or not? If there's anything suspect its leftovers and thats it, mate that is hysterical! May as well ban all sleep...

Yah BG still confuses under safeguard, in stadium anyway

Hmm yeah that got me thinking; I wonder how the effects of things like kings rock & scope lens baton pass? I know bright powder & berserk gene will. Sticked Farfetched BP's a 25% crit rate with no setup; 50% on x-chop. I'm sure a guy could do something fun with that. I've only ever been able...

You guys think the ou tier is being replaced with item clause or something? If you don't like the idea of it don't play it lol *shrugs. How are you running these matches Beelzemon? By arranged custom gen 2
