Taken largely from Gary2346's original BW thread. The Top 10 Titans of 6th Gen OU *Approved by bludz and celticpride* As you can probably tell, this generation's OU has been a massively influential and drastically changing metagame. So many new offensive and defensive threats were introduced...

Approved by AM Credit to D_what for the awesome artwork! Following the same basic idea as the other teambuilding compendiums found throughout the OU sub-forum, the basic goal of this thread is to provide a visual tool to assist teambuilding by giving players a quick way to pick checks and...

Have you had an urge to randomly try out some weird set you saw that looked kinda cool? Well, that's where the idea for this team came from. I was honestly just scanning the forums out of boredom and decided I wanted to build a team around specially defensive Aegislash. It kinda seemed like a...

Overview ######## After the reputation it earned as a dangerous offensive powerhouse in BW OU, Terrakion has a lot to live up to this time around. Its base 129 Attack stat is still impressive, as is the coverage it gets between its Rock- and Fighting-type STABs. Combined with its good base 108...

Taken over from Swamp-Rocket. All credit to him for the original skeleton. [Pros] <ul> <li>It is the only Pokemon with Drizzle in OU.</li> <li>Drizzle allows a bunch of Pokemon to become a lot more threatening, even if its temporary.</li> <li>Politoed has a pretty good supporting and offensive...

[Pros] <ul> <li>Slurpuff's pure Fairy-typing is quite solid.</li> <li>Belly Drum + Unburden is something that Slurpuff can call its own.</li> <li>It also has neat special move options such as Thunderbolt, Flamethrower, and Surf.</li> </ul> [Cons] <ul> <li>None of Slurpuff's stats are...

is duck [Overview] <p>Porygon2's good natural bulk combined with its access to Recover makes it one of the best Eviolite users in the game. Unlike many other Eviolite users, Porygon2 also has a decent Special Attack stat alongside BoltBeam coverage to give it some offensive capability. The...

Overview: I don't post many RMTs (in fact, this is my first one on Smogon), but I figured I'd go ahead and try to get some advice on this one since it's one of my favorite teams I've ever used in 5th Gen. The team is "Team Monkeyfish," and no, there's no real rhyme or reason behind the name...

A while back, a friend of mine posted a thread on SPPF about RBY LC. It seemed like a really gimmicky metagame, but it got me kinda interested, so I tried it out. I've found that RBY LC is very offensive hit/die metagame, and the standard teams tend to look like Exeggcute / Staryu / Diglett /...

PO's RBY NU List There aren't many people who play RBY OU, so as you can imagine, RBY NU is even less played. The tier may be pretty small, but honestly OU teams tend to contain the same small pool of Pokemon as well. This metagame is actually pretty fun, with several Pokemon like Machamp...

I'm a saber-toothed tiger, so rawr and stuff. [Overview] <p>Raikou is quite the stereotypical Electric-type Pokemon: good Special Attack and Speed with a fairly bland movepool. Its excellent combination of base 115 Speed and Special Attack stats looks great on the surface, but unfortunately...

The old analysis for Wartortle was a bit outdated, so I'm updating this with Zebraiken's approval. Shell shocker... [Overview] <p>Rapid Spin users have not been easy to come by in NU ever since Cryogonal rose into RU. However, though one of the few remaining spinners, Wartortle still...

***Approved by NixHex*** Dunsparce Typing: Normal Abilities: Serene Grace, Run Away, Rattled (Dream World) Stats: 100 HP / 70 Atk / 70 Def / 65 SpA / 65 SpD / 45 Spe Dunsparce is just one of those Pokemon that doesn't look too good on paper. While its base 100 HP is nice, its...

I noticed that there was a thread about countering bird offense, but not one about the birds themselves. Feel free to suggest changes to the OP! The Flying typing is often looked down largely for its weakness to Stealth Rock, as well as the other typing weaknesses that often follow. However...
