  1. Gettin' Sandy (OU SS Team)

    Leafeon seems like the odd one out here. Instead of it, I suggest running a SD Virizion. It has greater coverage, Speed and Special Defense and is always a good option against Rain. Virizion @ Leftovers Jolly Nature 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe ~Swords Dance ~Close Combat ~Leaf Blade...

    Thanks for the rate! Dragon Tail does sound like a good idea, I'll definitely test it out. Lol, I just realised something; the 240 EVs in Garchomp's Speed are meant to be in Defence...a typo by me, sorry. I prefer zero investment because it's Subs aren't broken by 0-investment Gyro Balls from...

    k, updated the team craploads. In order to deal with Taunt Jellicent better, which was the primary threat to my team, ScarfTar has made an appearance. Garchomp is now BulkyChomp, and Reuniclus has been replaced by Sigilyph. Threat list coming soon.

    I think I will place Crunch instead of Slide; Blissey is a good enough counter to Volcarona and the extra accuracy can save me. Air Balloon is nice, but I generally don't actually lead with Tar, and I like to use his bulk to come in on weak attacks...I'll look into it. I wasn't saying that...

    Ice Beam over Toss is a good idea on Blissey, but I generally don't have a problem with Dragon types. Quagsire's Scald is only to prevent it from becoming Taunt bait; the main way of hurting opposing threats is by getting them to +6 with Swagger and eventually having them kill themselves. I'll...

    Rock Tomb is kinda odd, but it does work well since Thundurus love to set up on Forry. It's a mix-up over it and Earthquake, really... Cosi's great, isn't it? Glad to see another person who knows it :3 Thanks for the rate. I would like Toxic Spikes on there somewhere, but paralysis really...

    .: Introduction :. Hi! I'm posting one of my latest and most successful teams, and one that's very enjoyable to play with. It utilises what I call a Wall Core to put a complete stop to as many threats as possible in the current metagame, supplemented by Sandstorm and the monstrous force that...
  8. [Gen 5 OU] United Cores

    Yeah, I've played around and decided I need HP Fire more than anything else...fixed. Luke's speed is so he can outrun 252 Speed / neutral natured Base 80s, and the extra bulk is more insurance for weak neutral attacks he can switch in on. There aren't really many other threatening 252 Speed /...
  9. [Gen 5 OU] United Cores

    .: Introduction :. Hi all! I'm posting a new but nonetheless fairly successful team of mine. Since I've started using it, I've reached a CRE of 1340 within the first few hours, with only two losses (and I must say there was considerable hax involved in said losses). That said, I would...
  10. Pokémon Black/White in-game discussion

    Just have to say that personally, this has been the greatest and most immersive game I've ever played (albeit, I haven't played many games...I'm more of a Pokemon player than anything else). For the most part, the storyline differs from Pokemon's cliche'd 'Evil Corporation Trying To Take Over...
  11. Scrafty

    This thing just never dies. I use the standard Rest + Bulk Up set w/ Shed Skin, and I've survived +2 Leaf Storms from Jarooda, Overheats from Shandera, +2 Drain Punches from Roob (when I was +2 as well, but still)...all to kill the offender and either heal off the damage with Drain Punch or Rest...
  12. [Gen 5 RMT] Team BurunTorei! Wait, let me try that again...

    Here are the defensive threats... Blissey - Bronzong - Burungeru - Celebi - Chansey - Dasutodasu - Deoxys-D - Desukaan - Dusknoir - Erufuun - Forretress - Furijio - Gigaiasu - Gigigiaru - Gliscor - Hippowdon - Iwaparesu - Latias - Mamanbou - Nattorei - Oobemu - Pendoraa -...
  13. [Gen 5 RMT] Team BurunTorei! Wait, let me try that again...

    Well, here's part one of the massively massive threat list. Half the things on here I rarely ever see, so I'll theorymon a bit... Names in bolded red are complete and utter killers to my team; the only way I can beat them is by using maxtreme prediction skillz. Names in bolded orange can be...
  14. [Gen 5 RMT] Team BurunTorei! Wait, let me try that again...

    Hi all! After losing my faith in Sandstorm when my last team went awry, I went soul-searching along the well-trodden Pokemon path. After many gruelling weeks of thought and testing, I finally came up with a new team worthy of posting to the good citizens of Smogon. This team arose around the...
  15. Medicham

    Medicham @ Focus Sash [252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Spe] Adamant Natured Pure Power -Fake Out -Magic Coat / Bullet Punch -Hi Jump Kick -Ice Punch Just saying that this set works absolute wonders in 1v1. Whilst it doesn't beat every Pokemon (nothing does), it beats a whole lot of the top...
  16. specs Skymins a monster... a cute flying weird dog monster

    If you dislike the Bulk Up set, the next best thing would be a SubPunch. I've never seen one, apart from my own, and they're certainly good for the surprise factor. Good for killing Shandera, too. Roobushin @ Leftovers Brave Natured (+Atk, -Spe) [212 HP / 252 Atk / 44 SpD] Iron Fist...
  17. Team F.*.C.K. Y.O.U. S.T.E.A.L.T.H. R.O.C.K.

    Alas, neither of them do too well under the sun. atm, you have a fairly major Sandstorm weakness (it's extraordinarily easy for a SS team to OHKO Ninetales, and then set up weather of their own). Against them, you might say you play carefully, but a well-constructed team could pick you apart...
  18. specs Skymins a monster... a cute flying weird dog monster

    Team looks fairly solid, just a few comments. Once Suicune has been taken down, every member of your team is destroyed by Doryuuzu. Sure, Skarmory can Roar it out, but eventually it'll be the last Pokemon and then Skarm can't do anything to it at all. Porygon doesn't have any moves that can...
  19. The Assistunt

    Very nice gimmick team, it seems a lot of thought has gone into it. The problem with your team is that, when Abomasnow is dead, Sandstorm teams will most probably beat you. The movesets of each Pokemon are pathetic in the current metagame (that's not a criticism, I understand they have to be for...
  20. After the Rain... (Peaked #32 on Dream World OU)

    Team looks very nice, just a few nitpicks. Whilst you're certainly capable of taking out opposing SS teams with ScarfToed, Loom and Gliscor, I don't think Gliscor is needed (as you said). To help counter opposing Rain teams that could outmuscle you, I suggest putting in a Dragonite sweeper. It...
