None taken, blunt is all i need, if it isn't for your reminder, i probably have overlooked the scald allergy, which is fatal to my offensive team, i guess i was lucky enough to elude scald spammers during my usage of this team. Thank a lot for the helps guys, i guess i will have to make major changes to my team. The only mon i am going to preserve is probably Mamo. Florges is a great idea, though i try not to repeat what i have from another previous UU team i had before. Suicune and Cobalion are also awesome ideas, nevertheless i try to avoid legendaries as much as possible, since i am not a fan of legendaries, but i guess Cobalion can work on this team. These are my replacements from incorporating everyone's ideas: Vaporeon for Alomomola(physical) Crawdaunt for M-Absol(mixed) Rotom-H for Amoongus to form regen core(i have concerns about opponents taunters however, defensive Rotom Heat has pivotal role with VoltSwitch thus less susceptible to taunt) Espeon for Alakazam as Magic Bounce user, although i have reservation for Focus miss accuracy, i am not always favored by RNGesus when it comes to accuracy. Taunter hazard setter Cobalion for M-Aero since M-Absol already occupies mega slot @CG, I guess I can wall fighting types with Amooguss-Alomomola and thank you CG for the offer, i will hit you up on server PM for a battle whenever you are around and ready P.S. One question guys, can Alomomola handle Scarfed Mienshao/Arcanine/Darmanitan alone?

At a glance I have used this team for few times now and it has met mixed win-loss results, i don't know if bringing two eeveelutions is a good idea and i would like inputs from you guys, most of these are standard sets and i am up for any changes you guys can offer. Any suggestions can go to changing up some team dynamics as i threw together this team on a whim Soup (Vaporeon) @ Leftovers Ability: Water Absorb EVs: 204 HP / 248 Def / 56 SpD Bold Nature - Wish - Scald - Protect - Ice Beam Analysis: This bulky stally Vappy is always my go-to when i like to shut down dangerous physical foes, Scald is a very chance-based. Curry (Rotom-Heat) @ Choice Specs Ability: Levitate EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Modest Nature - Volt Switch - Overheat - Hidden Power [Grass] - Trick UU has a lot of EQ spam and Rotom-H greatest strength here is to protect my team from that and i dont know if defensive Rotom-H is a better idea than specially offensive one. Bossman (Crawdaunt) @ Life Orb Ability: Adaptability EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Aqua Jet - Dragon Dance - Knock Off - Crabhammer Crawdaunt as a wallbreaker especially in stall which UU is known for, it's usually for Cresselia, but it is severely grounded by its low speed even with one Dragon Dance(i initially thought dragon dance was enough to circumvent its slowness, but experience with this team proved me quite wrong), i am considering sashing it and switching dragon dance to swords dance as typical Swords Dance set. Mamo and Rotom-H each can simply complement it by taking care of the likes of Chesnaught, Cobalion or Zapdos. Tusky (Mamoswine) @ Life Orb Ability: Thick Fat EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Ice Shard - Earthquake - Icicle Crash - Superpower Most success of this team comes from Mamo, it is my go-to physical sweeper on my team when Crawdaunt falls. Nyan (Espeon) @ Choice Specs Ability: Magic Bounce EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe Timid Nature - Dazzling Gleam - Shadow Ball - Psyshock - Psychic It is supposed lead on the team but nowadays people dont seem to lead with hazard setters right off, Magic Bounce doesnt get much on the play and scarfed physical threats often took it out relatively easy, i feel like its weak link on my team Ancient (Aerodactyl-Mega) @ Aerodactylite Ability: Tough Claws EVs: 248 HP / 156 Def / 104 Spe Jolly Nature - Taunt - Roost - Toxic - Earthquake This is your typical bulky M Aerodactyl, and i don't get the most use out of it among the team members i have here. So far my team has encounter few CurseLax and they are pretty scary for my team. I also notice i lack special defensive wall on my team and my team is easily worn down by Stealth Rock, a hazard control is needed, i am thinking of replacing M-Aero for Rapid Spinner Forretress, but there comes the problem with Taunters. Any new mon replacement, suggestion or criticism in changing team dynamics for a better one is greatly appreciated

Hello Austin, welcome to Reborn, nursing is a noble job, keep it up pal, see you around

Welcome to Reborn Billy, saw you a bit on server, hope you stick around for more, see you around pal

Simisage was the only passable elemental monkey because i like its pompadour hairstyle(guilty as charge, i am weird), the other two were meh. No place for other primate in my heart other than Aipom and Ambipom.

Thanks guys, i really appreciate the wishes

Happy Birthday DW, keep being awesome m8

Happy Birthday Comet, can't believe you have same birthday as i am, have a blast girl!

I am looking forward to fossil mons from synapsids, mammal like reptiles, rock typing is inevitable due to fossilization, but secondary typing can be opened to discussion, i mean if Sun and Moon are based on Hawaii, the spine on Edaphosaurus etc can regulate their body temperature. Spoiler tagged since the picture is pretty large

Happy Birthday Honchy, have a blast my friend

I mean it does get access to three best recoil damage moves Flare Blitz, Head Smash and Wild Charge, by far it is the only Reckless mon with those moves with decent HP to back it up, with Tailwind support in OU double, i think it can do well. Emboar gets the worst of it from fans due to GameFreak poor judgement on typing and stat distribution(it could have been other cool dual typing but GF had to have given it the repetitve dual typing), i personally feel like it doesnt deserve scorns from fandom as i quite like characterization of Zhubajie the Demon Boar which design and inspiration are based upon.

Congrats, Rusty! I only managed to pull a Kiritsugu on second 10-roll, so long, my king qq Angra Mainyu is available in FP gacha if anyone is interested. Edit: As it turns out our king hasnt forsaken me yet, he showed up on my 3rd 10-roll

Mirror B has to have one of these Mega Ludicolo Type: Grass/Water Ability: Regenerator Stat HP 80 Attack 70 -> 70 Defense 70 -> 90 (+20) Sp. Attack 90 -> 115 (+25) Sp. Defense 100 -> 130 (+30) Speed 70 -> 95 (+25) BST 480 -> 580 Grass/Water undoubtedly is a good typing, nothing drastically change in role of Mega Ludicolo compared to Ludicolo in this set, only stat changes complement it better in specially defensive sweeper and it doesn't have to rely heavily on rain setup for its poor speed. Regenerator increases its longevity in battles for a late game sweep.

The thing about Asian education, coming from a Southeast Asian here, is that Asian education much emphasizes on cramming rather than allowing students to question and examining what they have learnt in school. Parents and teachers stance towards education is mostly directed at overachievement, sure you have heard of the 'Tiger Mums' or 'Tiger Dads' as their names imply, thus the students falling behind do not get much attention, and the hierarchal system doesnt help the situation in that elite students are separated from students who perform below average and resources are distributing accordingly. Education should be about giving all students equal chance and scouting the best qualities in each students, i think this is one of the major failing in Asian education, at least for my country Malaysia that is. I will get back to you if i have thought of other problems on this issue. P.S. We Malaysians coined a phrase 'spoon-fed' culture for our situation, meaning students will not outsource knowledge by themselves and expect to be spoon fed by teachers, this kills any curiosity to learn in student

I am going to try my hand on this despite not laddering or even play competitive much especially not much OU, it is just my humble attempt and can subject to scrutiny since i am not very experienced in competitive My tiering based on type

Happy Birthday Aika birb! Have yourself a great one and continue to bring joy to Reborn, yeah?

Happy Birthday, Rainbow, keep sending hugs and spreading joy to everyone \o/

Something that has been on many people's minds is that Unfezant being worst regional bird of all for not learning any good physical moves(and its mediocre speed and attack stat but that's for another topic), like Brave Bird or Acrobatics, i would like to add to the facts that it should learn Night Slash to make full use of Super Luck, sure it is not equipped with apparatus or body parts for slashing, but did it ever stop GF from giving Night Slash to Honchkrow? I am not entirely convinced that Honchkrow learns Night Slash solely based on its dark typing, these birds have sturdy wings that can equally slash things up.

Happy Birthday DD, have a blast and wish you a great year ahead \o/

Thanks, Viri Yeah, i love ice types, but it doesn't help by the fact that the only few viable ice types are Mamo, regular Kyurem and its Black and White variance and Weavile which sit on higher tier, if only GF could revisit some of the older designs and give them regular evolutions they much deserve, Mega Walrein and Mega Mamo are the topics for another day(I think someone on the forum came up with Mega Cryogonal, i can't seem to recall). Mega Unown in 28 different characters, mhmmm...
