Interesting team, looks nice, but needs a little revision. You may want to try Life Orb on Scizor. Life Orb will allow Scizor to do quite a bit more damage, which is quite important considering his small invesment in Attack. You can Roost off Life Orb recoil, which also a big plus. You also...

Not entirely true. Since Bulky Offense is dominant in OU (so it seems), Bulky Mence has been popping up quite a bit for me. His defensive sets can be great on bulky offense teams, and has been as I've seen. Even with Stealth Rock, if he switches into a resisted choiced attack or Scizor, then he...

I just skim through your team, and stop at Top, noticing that he does not have Rapid Spin. He can still be an effective revenge killer with Rapid Spin occupying Bullet Punch or Sucker Punch. Losing Sucker Punch means that Rotom can come in and block your spin, and you can't kill it. Losing...

Haha, dude no problem, because in all honesty, it seemed to have required a fair amount of thought and testing; I saw you had done that. And the sprites are your choice xD I just think Tyranitar looks retarded (and he's my 2nd fave pokemon tied with Heracross), but Metagross basically is 4...

SpecsJolt says "ezpz" to your team. STAB Thunderbolt + Outspeed every single thing on your team all day long! SubGar also rapes your team harder than Jolteon, using Thunderbolt, Shadow Ball, and who cares what the last attack is. Gengar can switch into Machamp's DynamicPunch, while Jolteon can...

Not necessarily true. Empoleon, Swampert, Roserade, Hippowdon, Aerodactyl, Jirachi, Dragonite, Starmie, Weavile, Infernape, Machamp, Ninjask, Gyarados, Crobat, Celebi, Gliscor, and many other common leads do not even have the ability to explode, but they are so commonly used nonetheless. Some...

Well...This gets me curious for LC! After reading RMTs for LCs and how people rate them, it seems even more complicated than that of the OU metagame. I just might try my luck first time 'round and try my best at a successful team. LC looks very in-depth and this thread only captures my attention...

Hello! I like your team, it uses Flygon and Infernape, two pokemon who are fierce when worked with properly. And on your team, it moreso does just that. I would really like you to keep Jolly on Flygon. Reason being, as you said, obtaining a speed tie with max positive base 100s. The loss is...

Hai-lo. Just go UU, that's most likely the only way this team will survive in any way. I suggest some other bulky Psychic-type over Metagross. Maybe Claydol to spin away rocks and set some up for your team? Because I know for a fact that Gallade loves Stealth Rocks to the ends of the Earth...

Good thought. However, we've opted for DDTar, but I haven't updated the OP. Most likely tomorrow at this time, if not, tomorrow night.

Yep, figured that out. Now I just need christoko's opinion and I can edit the OP...that is, if he agrees as well. [/I]Yea, um, maybe I haven't said this enough, but christoko is quite solid on not removing Gengar. He and Tyranitar are the reason this team was made anyways. I'm sorry if this...

@animenagai - I can agree how much more useful it is, as DDTar abuses SR so much, it's not even legal in the US. However, Toxic Spikes is a good way to down some threats who aren't immune to it, without them sweeping the entire team; namely, Starmie, Electivire, and Infernape. Starmie and...

Thanks? And yea, but I'm implementing the arguments everyone gives me ("He's extinct, why worry? I won't change a thing just for him!") and throw it back at them. Besides, I do have more than two ways to stop Electivire: Roserade outspeeds the standard MixVire, and can sleep it, which lets TTar...

Magnezone's one and only mission is to TRAP and get rid of steels. I understand Forretress and Skarmory can both get out with Shed Shell and switch to Electivire on the Thunderbolt, thus granting a Motor Drive boost. However, I can easily decipher whether they carry Leftovers or not. 6% per...

Either way I didn't test it :X But yea, I'm not so stellar on EVs myself. I just used Stockpile Hippowdon with Stockpile/Ice Fang/Roar/Slack Off and he got almost every poke on the opponents team down to ~50% with a Gyarados dead. I just though since Collosoil has a better Attack, SpD and HP...

Trick ScarfMie. Done. Speaking of your Starmie, it outspeed +2 Adamant Gyarados (maybe Jolly? idk) Can't think of anything, but I had to get that in. It seems like your team is well-built, with a couple weaknesses I can spot but I can see some possible solutions to. Out of curiosity, how high...

After spending quite a bit of time reading over the analyses for Collosoil, I feel I could make up a viable set. This is my first post ever in the CAP, so I'm not sure how formatting exactly works, so correct my formatting if it's off. Correct my calculations as well. [SET] name: StockSoil...

Well, I can't weave my way out of that one. Swampert IS a great Tyranitar counter, maybe one of the few that can directly handle all sets (that don't have Grass Knot.) Stealth Rock support couldn't hurt, too, maybe some phazing to rack up more damage for an easier sweep for Tyranitar or Scizor...

*Bump w/ Update* Alrighty, so, christoko is pretty much done testing Gliscor as a lead until I test him with the other experimental subjects, and he is still unsure about whether it is more suitable or not. In summation, Gliscor = Roserade by testing. Gliscor uses SR and Roserade uses TS...

Read the Bolded text outside the quotes to avoid my rude comments. I don't understand...How exactly can you stall out screens with Metagross? You're just saying "I'll let them switch in their DD Gyarados that for some reason gives me problems to get maybe 2 DDs in." Also, how exactly can you...
