    Pokémon Klefki

    Fairy Lock may be more useful in doubles, but I don't really see it being used in singles.

    Pokémon Clawitzer

    Tried Binacle as father. No Shell Smash :(

    Pokémon Klefki

    I think before we know the exact threats Klefki has to deal with (e.g. to avoid OHKOs after screen, etc.), max+ def just gives more consistent results for any set.

    Theorymon Discussion and Viability Ranking

    What if Gengar got Aura Sphere? Probably won't be metagame-shaking, but wouldn't you think Gengar would have a easier time sweeping? And the likes of Tyranitar must be prepared to be badly hurt if it tries to trap Gengar? Of course, Gengar won't be able to hurt things like Scizor without HP Fire

    Theorymon Discussion and Viability Ranking

    Well, it means Gengar doesn't have to lose the speed ties of the 110 tier anymore (Lati@s quickly springs into mind). Flamethrower > HP Fire of course, but it also means a all-out attacking Gengar might be possible with HP Ice. Besides, Flamethrower means some less used Pursuiters stand less of...

    The Last of BW (BW OU RMT)

    I have already emphasised that Salamence is a rare choice scarf user in that it can actually sweep teams using the ability Moxie. And Salamence is a key sweeper in this team.

    The Last of BW (BW OU RMT)

    This seems to be a good one, although isn't Celebi weak to U-turn? Besides I've tried this Celebi on another team and I found that the special attack drop from Lead Storm is very annoying, so are Grass Knot/Energy Ball acceptable alternatives? I do tend to prefer higher accuracies moves, but...

    The Last of BW (BW OU RMT)

    (I see what you did there, mostwanted) The problem of implementing DDMence is that I would miss a revenge killer (with Choice scarf). Also, to abuse fully the ability Moxie, the immediate power of Outrage is needed imo, which is incompatible with DD (as of BW).

    Sunny Sunny Day Y'all

    Ok. BTW, good luck using 5 instead of 6 Pokemon Please be aware that the concept of lead is outdated with the introduction of team preview. Of course, no one will stop you from leading with Sandslash every time, but if you have team preview in mind you will perform much better. HP fire works...

    The Last of BW (BW OU RMT)

    Dear readers, The RMT here is a team that is designed just before the release of B2W2 on the PO server. Luckily the Smogon server would not change anything until next month. However, with the introduction of more alternate formes, abilities and moves available, teams designed for BW alone...

    Landorus-T

    Intimidate + U-turn should come in very handy. Landorus-T also has much less reliance on sandstorm being active. But Seriously, Fly and Outrage? Use something like HP Ice or Focus miss would serve a lot better.

    Imminent Big Change: Keldeo

    Definitely top tier OU Pokemon, but probably won't make it to uber since it's not that versatile in terms of possible sets, and still gets walled by only a handful even with hidden power coverage. No Ice Beam lol.

    Type Analysis & Frequency

    I'll have to agree with the psychic bit and disagree with the flying bit. The reason why Lati@s is still used very frequently is because of their stats and the ability levitate, which far outweighs the cons of being a psychic type. Even then psyshock isn't that bad if you have specific...

    What is the best way of dealing with trickscarf if you don't have a scarf pokemon or it is not safe to switch into that?

    @IronGross: The introduction of the move Psyshock makes Psychic attackers viable. In previous gens physics attacking is almost exclusively special, not physical. Also, the increasing fighting type Pokemon usage contributes to using psychic attacks this gen. @Matthew: Jirachi is part steel part...

    Very provoking warstory. Well done for a non-badger to beat Taylor.
