Shadows in the Dark A mono-team was something I have wanted to do for quite a while. However, while mono-teams did intrigue me, one thing that was very important was that if I were to attempt one it would be at least somewhat viable in a competitive metagame. One of the types that has always...

UU Full Stall After getting re-accustomed to the metagame for a few weeks by playing some OU, I finally decided to venture down into UU. The first thing I wanted to try out was full stall, as full stall was difficult and even arguably non-viable in OU... which is unfortunate as it is one of my...

Hazardous Hyper Offense Inspired by Flygon Team Building Process: While balanced teams and stall teams are usually my forte, with the occasional gimmick team such as baton pass thrown in, I wanted to give a hyper offense team a try. The first thing I wanted in the team was something that could...

When I originally created this team, I wanted a team using Kyurem, who is severely underestimated in the current metagame due to its admittingly crippling weaknesses. With Kyurem, it is usually considered a good idea to bring some Hail along, so Abomasnow became virtually obligatory. I...

I decided to try my hand at ubers. Knowing that weather is a dominant force in ubers, I decided to create a weather team myself. However, while every team out there expects rain and sun, not every team is properly equipped to handle a sandstorm team, and so that is what I decide to create...

This team is a modification of a generation 4 team I used to run a long while back; this is my first gen 5 RMT. While the move-set modifications were usually fairly obvious to me, the one issue I already know my team probably has is unoptimized EVs. That said, this team has pulled in its fair...

Stall teams have always been my thing, and the Uber tier presents a challenge to those wanting to create such teams. It is more offensive than the OU tier, meaning that it is harder to create a team able to avoid being 2hko by all the setup and choice pokes flying around in the Uber tier...

Salamence and Dragonite The Stars of the team. While scrolling through the sets of Salamence a few days ago, i did a double take upon seeing one with Wish in its moveset. This moveset, Fatmence, was the inspiration of my team.... in which i use Salamence as a team player to lure out and...

This is madness! (UU Hail Stall) v3.0 Well, weather teams have always been my thing..... I've always liked building teams around abusing weather to their benefit while forcing the opponent to suffer its negative effects. That being said, weather teams are harder to pull off in UU due to the...

Metagross RAAAAGE!!!!!! (a Dual Screen BP team) I wanted a team that could setup one primary sweeper who could then wreck an opposing team, needing only a couple cleaners if anything at all when it was done. A dual screen BP combo seemed like the way to go to accomplish this, so i went ahead...

I've always liked sandstorm teams, and have used quite a few in OU. However, i do not play UU much and once i gave it a try, i liked the differing metagames. I missed the prevalence of sandstorm, so i sought to create a team which can abuse sandstorm in the UU environment. So, i created this...

Whats more obnoxious than three layers of spikes, two layers of toxic spikes, and stealth rock? Three phazers which constantly force you to switch into them. I've liked stallish teams for a while, but have never gone all out on focusing on entry hazard abuse. I decided to go for it with this...

I've always found sandstorm teams fun; however ive only played several defensive and balanced ones. In this team i went full offensive with hard-hitters designed to crack an opponents team apart. Without further ado, i present my team The Team: Gliscor @ Leftovers Jolly - Sand Veil 252 HP...

I wanted to try my hand at ubers baton pass, so i went to smogon, typed in the move baton pass, and hit enter... sadly there was only one Ubers user, who is used but cannot complete the job alone. Many OU pokes had to bear the burden of venturing into the Ubers metagame where the big scary...

The team: Most of the above poke's are veterans of the baton pass world, especially Ninjask and Smeargle. The decline that resulted from the new more offensive meta-game of DPP doesnt mean they cant still fulfill their roles well as baton passers. Without further ado... i deliver the in-depth...

Well, I wanted to create a bulky sandstorm team able to stall and cause problems for the opponent, without creating a team which couldnt kill a magikarp if it had to. So, obviously the first step was to select something which could put up a permanent sandstorm. I also wanted something bulky and...

So, I've finally decided to try my hand at a Baton Pass team and from the games i've had so far it is a very fun and interesting playstyle. I believe my team is relatively balanced, but of course i always seek opinions on how to better it. Anyways.... Overview -------------- (lead) Ninjask -...
