  1. Whoo lots of feedback. Thanks guys! Very good point. The Justified boost you mentioned can be quite annoying too, so yeah I did make the change. Thanks! Those seem pretty solid suggestions - especially the defensive Mega Swmapert set, which I never really used before. Thanks! However, I am slightly hesitant to use defensive Salamence because I prefer Salamence to act as a sweeper in this team. Ah the teambuilding god came to help me. Thanks Skitty! Yeah, I replaced Drill Run, Water Pulse, Focus Blast for Pursuit, Scald and Signal Beam respectively. I only put Water Pulse there just for extra damage, and I guess a chance of residual burn damage is more viable here. Signal Beam won't OHKO Hydreigon on a switch-in but I guess its better than being walled by Sableye.
  2. I was bored, so I tried this again and I got: ...I don't know how I should feel about this O_O
  3. Cloyster and Walrein should get Scald.
  4. Chesnaught is an easy set-up bait for Reuniclus as it is immune to Leech Seed and its attacks do barely any damage. Zapdos is annoying for any sort of team, and yes HP Grass Zapdos does exist to counter Swampert. But most Zapdos are defensive and carries support moves such as Defog and Roost, so Reuniclus acts as an okay counter. Variants without Heat Wave gets walled by Escavalier too. Salamence + Mienshao also deals a lot of damage to it, so I'm not too worried about Zapdos. Yeah, Crawdaunt actually deals heavy damage to this team, and its probably the most threatening mon. I might alter Blastoise's EV spread a bit to avoid being 2HKO by LO Knock Off (which is kinda ridiculous). I'm thinking of replacing Dark Pulse to Aura Sphere to counter this better. Mega Ampharos sounds pretty good - but removing Mega Blastoise means I don't have a hazard remover. SR is a pain for Salamence, so a spinner/defogger is a must in this team. I'll consider the Defensive Salamence variant.
  5. Greetings. My name is Xiri and I like to make competitive teams (mainly for UU and below). The teams may not be entirely perfect, but I plan to share some of the teams I built which shows good potential and performance (and because a certain Ody wanted me to post teams xD). Any sort of feedback would be much appreciated because I'm still learning how to be a good teambuilder. Without further ado, let's begin: A team at a glance: Wow the icons are small When I build teams, I try to build around 2 mons. In this case, I have chosen to build around Salamence and Reuniclus - 2 set up sweepers that can wreak teams that are not prepared for them. In detail: Salamence @ Lum Berry Ability: Moxie EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Dragon Dance - Earthquake - Iron Tail - Outrage It's the standard DD Lum Salamence set which allows to hit almost everything pretty hard once a DD is up. Once all of Salamence's threats are gone (e.g Mamoswine, Entei etc), Salamence can freely set-up. Things like Forretress, Rotom-C after a Leaf Storm are excellent set-up baits. Reuniclus @ Leftovers Ability: Magic Guard EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpA Bold Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Calm Mind - Focus Blast - Psyshock - Recover Fun fact about me - I used to HATE this Pokemon because I always ended up getting swept by one whenever I encountered it in battle. But I figured I would just use it because why not? Magic Guard is a fantastic ability which makes it immune to residual status damage from Poison and Burn (although it doesn't really like to be paralyzed). Psyshock allows it to beat fellow Calm Mind sweepers such as Florges and Suicune. Focus Blast is there over Shadow Ball because its more crucial to hit those pesky Dark types such as Hydreigon, Krookodile and Absol, which can be annoying. Escavalier @ Assault Vest Ability: Overcoat EVs: 248 HP / 176 Atk / 84 Def Adamant Nature - Drill Run - Iron Head - Knock Off - Megahorn AV Escavalier is awesome. Most special attacks don't do much at all to this thing, and it acts as a counter to annoying special attacking mons such as Porygon-Z, Alakazam and opposing Reuniclus, and deal heavy damage in return. Pursuit can be used over Drill Run if trapping things like Alakazam and Espeon are a priority. Blastoise @ Blastoisinite Ability: Torrent EVs: 184 HP / 252 SpA / 72 Spe Modest Nature - Dark Pulse - Ice Beam - Rapid Spin - Water Pulse The team's Mega/Hazard Remover/Bulky Powerhouse. Dark Pulse and Water Pulse are given to take advantage of its rather unique ability. Maximum SpA is given so that it will deal maximum damage. Swampert @ Leftovers Ability: Torrent EVs: 240 HP / 16 Atk / 252 Def Relaxed Nature - Earthquake - Roar - Scald - Stealth Rock Swampert is the team's physical wall and the SR setter. Things like Band Entei and Mega Aerodactyl are really common, and Swampert checks both of those mons with ease. Roar is there to force mons like Gyarados, Suicune and Reuniclus who tries to use Swampert as set-up bait. Mienshao @ Choice Scarf Ability: Reckless EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - High Jump Kick - Knock Off - Stone Edge - U-turn Scarf Mienshao is usually the team's lead. Reckless HJK is a deadly move which at least 2HKOs almost anything (apart from things like Chesnaught and Alomomola). And that's it. I didn't really add much explanations since they are pretty much quite obvious. Your feedback on this team would be much appreciated

  7. Snow Warning sounds okay. I would have suggested Refrigerate but then it would probably turn into an inferior Sylveon (as much as I hate to admit it Q_Q) DELTA STREAM GLACEON LESSGO
  8. Tfw a bee is following you because its attracted to the scent of the soda you're drinking.. GET AWAY FROM ME :[[

      Aichmophobia. I think I've got it too. I lost control of myself and choked someone once for poking me with a pun.

      I really like bees, though. They're cute.
