    As an additional point in favor of Archeops, it can kill itself off using Head Smash (assuming you are brought to sash) to prevent a spin or defog while dealing substantial damage in the process. Albeit 80% accurate, Aero can only provide this additional utility if it forgoes coverage for...

    I disagree. I think that you do need to account for Absol on every team. It has the power to tear through all offensive teams with Sucker Punch and SD to do the same to defensive and balance teams. In my opinion, he's more dangerous than Tyrantrum because of the versatility within one set. It...

    To be fair, it really doesn't stop M-Abomasnow in its tracks. It gets demolished by Wood Hammer and most SD Abomasnows run enough speed to beat base 50s if I remember correctly. Hariyama is great but saying it stops M-Aboma is overselling. It's a check at best, but only on predicted ice moves...

    The one additional note I'd like to make for my support on Mawile is that is also provides offense with an Absol counter, a Tyrantrum check/potential counter, a Scrafty counter, a Stealth Rocker, and a pivot using baton pass all in one slot. That's a lot of utility and role compression for...

    GG bud, no hax needed there, just good plays. That late U-turn with Melo was a great play, won the match.

    Thank you all for your replies! Based on the feedback I have opted to make some changes. They'll be listed in red in the OP as well. 252 Spe EV's on Samurott to outspeed Scrafty 252 HP/96 Att+/ 160 SpD spread on M-Steelix (Thanks Fran!) The big seller on this is that it still OHKO's Fletchinder...
  14. Samurott Runs RU (Peaked #1 @ 1453)

    Hey Arifeen, thanks for the reply and suggestions. To your points: I am very much considering running additional speed EV's. I didn't realize that the threshold for outspeeding Scrafty was within such close reach. While I do believe that the additional EV's in HP are meaningful, this is a...
  15. Samurott Runs RU (Peaked #1 @ 1453)

    Hey everyone, the RU section of the RMT board has been pretty barren and I thought I'd put an RMT in before the expected tier shifts come. I used this team to receive req's on the current Tyrantrum Suspect and I figured maybe it could give someone the opportunity to grind out their req's in the...

  17. Resource Ask a simple question get a simple answer: RU edition

    I understand what you're saying and agree with you in that sense, but my concern is "when does it stop?" With Doom gone, stall becomes even more powerful than it already is. I don't think it's possible to have a meta that isn't at least somewhat centralized around a specific poke or a specific...

    I don't believe so. This tier is so bulky that a boosting poke like Houndoom is necessary in my opinion. With Doublade on its way out, a potential ban of Houndoom will either bring CM Cress and Reuni to undoubted S Rank or get them banned.
