With the current VGC format allowing certain legends into the mix, which means now teams don't just have to build against MKhang. From my play tests, the most common Legends I see brought are MRayquaza, PDon and Xerneas. The difficult part is that while MRay and Xerneas are fairly easy to build...

Thank you, I appreciate the input. I see many of your points. So let's discuss them: 1:I wanted protect SO bad on Ho-Oh, but unfortunately he suffers from 4 move syndrome. I really like him with Iron Head, but the only two moves I see fit for removal are Brave Bird or Iron Head. Not sure which...

I don't know where or how to find the ones people usually use on here with the sprites. Is nobody gonna give me actual input or just critique errors?

Yeah that was a mistake haha. Any actual input though?

On a side note, just realized this is the wrong forum. Can a mod help me move this please?

Hi there, this threat is not just about future generations of Pokemon, it's also for nitpicks you may currently have. Essentially, I want to get a consensus in this forum and seen what the "ideal" pokemon experience is, therefore creating the "perfect" Pokemon game. Here goes. Post Game Post...

Hey there guys. I've had a long hiatus from Smogon, as I am preparing myself for the VGC season upcoming. Singles is fun and all, but I've been having fun with the refreshing doubles meta that has been established. (But damn, do I hate seeing Mega Khangaskan every other team). The team I'm gonna...

I'm honestly a little bit disappointed in the Mega Sableye suspect. To me, what I'm hearing is that everyone is so reliant on entry hazards that they can't win without them. Using my Sableye was refreshing because I didn't have to bring my own hazards, I could just punish those who did. This...

Thank you a lot. When building a team it's so hard to consider everything, that's why I love these rmts! I'll be playtesting these additions asap. The only one I'm thinking might not be as effective is removing Rotom. Setup sweepers hate to try to set up on it. On second thought, though, scald...

Ok, disregarding the team title, I wanted to build a team revolving around one of my favorite VoltTurn using duo, Rotom-W and Scizor. The two carry a great deal of coverage between the two alone, so the team almost built itself. Sorry for the lack of a better sprite for Gardevoir and...

Thank you for the ideas! I was trying hard to squeeze Stealth Rock in there; Heatran would be perfect for that. I have to agree with Knock Off; It definitely scares the foe from switching and losing their precious items. Good call on Starmie, too: Most of the things that Ice Beam would hit are...

For this team, I wanted to have a mostly-offensive approach without any real tank pokemon, and instead keep it fast with pivots. I started the team with Breloom as a lead, using the classic Spore move first turn to gain an immense advantage. This is the whole team. Breloom @ Focus Sash Ability...

Try replacing Landorus for a phasing Skarmory set. Skarmory Leftovers Sturdy Impish(252 HP/16 Def/244 DiD) -Roar -Stealth Rock -Roost -Brave Bird This takes away one of your 4 ice weaknesses for a neutral instead. The fire weakness is covered by charizard and latias.

Given these changes, the team works well together? In play tests it holds its own before these edits; I'll be sure to see how this changes it.

My original Omega Ruby team consisted of a very defensive set, using Klefki to set up Reflect/Light Screen, paralyzing the goes, then switching out. This proved often effective, but still, many holes were noted during play runs, and those problems are fixed with this team. So, without further...

Thank you both for the suggestions! After you explained everything, I completely agree with Snubbull being a viable replacement for Spritzee, especially since Chinchou is a cleric as it is. I'll certainly miss the calm mind set up, but intimidate can help cut a sweep short. I like the idea of...

I've always wanted to play in the little cup environment. It seemed like such a change of pace from the OU spectrum, and that has never been more true than with the introduction of Mega Evolution a few years ago. After studying up on the meta game, I've built a team that will fare well. Here's...

Hello there, I'm new to smogon but have been battling for a few years in the ou tier. I have a team right now based on Altaria stall and works great; but there are pokemon out there it had trouble handling. That's where this team comes in. Lead Sableye Sablenite Prankster/Magic Bounce Calm(248...
