Okay, I'm a baby player here, so please excuse my general noobiness. I just joined Smogon, and one of the first things I did was make an RMT. Now, in the latest RMT I had, I was faced with a conundrum. I had made my post, but nobody had replied to it. So I had bumped it, and again, no replies. A...

Okay, nice team, but there are are some ways I can see to make it better. First off, run swords dance over low kick on bisharp. That way you get more sweepability. Second, put 248 evs into def on lando-t, as the 8 speed doesn't really help. Also, leftovers over rocky helmet for survivability...

*blows kisses* Thank you all so much for your help. I've read through this a couple times now to think it over, and I think I'm going to try firehusky's advice. Having a solid check to both medicham-m and pinsir-m is handy, and not having to put a slot into another phys defensive pokemon just...

As the OU metagame draws to a close, I haven't been playing much pokemon, rather, I've been waiting for ORAS. But I decided to make another team, just for the hell of it. Venusaur @ Venusaurite Ability: Chlorophyll EVs: 252 HP / 240 Def / 16 Spe Bold Nature - Giga Drain - Sludge Bomb -...

Switch SDef evs to HP on ferro, and give it 4 in SDef. Swap outrage for dragon claw on mance, so fairies can't set up on you. Iron tail just isn't worth it, so switch it out for Dragon Dance. On Heatran, swap earth power for stealth rock. Don't use normal thundurus as it is toatally outclassed...

Okay, so recently I got a shiny Metagross, and since Metagross is easily my favourite pokemon AND shiny, I decided to make a team around it. Here's the team. Metagross @ Leftovers Ability: Clear Body Shiny: Yes EVs: 252 Atk / 252 HP / 4 SDef Adamant Nature - Meteor Mash - Stealth Rock -...

After testing your team out a bit, I came to the conclusion that a Mega Venusaur could help a lot, and I think you should put it instead of Garde. I'd recommend this set: Venusaur @ Venusaurite Modest nature EVs: 252 Satk / 248 HP / 8 Def - Synthesis - Giga Drain - Sludge Bomb - Hidden Power...

You're completely right about the fighting type coverage, I was derping out XD. But I'm still not sure about tf, because of the x4 weakness to stealth rock, and with no defog or rapid spin, and the fact that it's using recoil moves like brave bird and flare blitz, I'm just not sure it's viable.

This is one of the best teams I've seen on these forums, and I'm suprised you aren't higher up on the ladder. There are a few things, though, so I'll give my two cents. For one, I think you should remove Fake out on Infernape in favor of Thunder punch, to hurt water types on the switch. I would...

l'd recommend that ypu use guts on your conk, to feign an Iron Fist set, and then destroy everything when they go for a burn. This way, you can also take burns for crawdunt, and give your opponent a nasty suprise. But if you are going to stick with sheer force,you should get rid of power up...

This is a pretty good team, I haven't seen many Trick room teams recently. There's only a few things. For one, you should put 0 attack ivs on your Heatran and Reuniculus, to stop Foul Play users from messing you up. Also on your Heatran, I'd recommend that you switch Hidden Power Grass out for...

Okay, thanks for your advice Saber, as Metal Lord already suggested Latios, I have started using one. This is the set Latios (M) Life Orb Ability: Levitate (duh) EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 spd /4 HP Timid Nature - Draco Meteor - Dragon Pulse - Psychic - Defog I chose Psychic over Psyshock because I...

Thanks SpaceCake, I'll start breeding a new one as soon as possible. Your advice is much appreciated. Thanks so much for your help, Metal Lord. Fortunately for me, I have a pre-trained lvl 100 Defog Latios all ready to go. I'll get to work on these improvements right away, and thank you...
