    Stat Switch [Azumarill+Regice Banned]

    252+ SpA Choice Specs Pixilate Sylveon Hyper Voice vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Breloom: 446-528 (96.1 - 113.7%) -- 75% chance to OHKO Only answer I've been able to find to reliably shut him down. Trouble is, it can't switch in. Only thing that doesn't care much about his attacks is....Honchkrow maybe...

    np: XY UU Stage 0 - I Lived

    Stall is tough to break through in this meta. I run Taunt Tornadus-T/Mega Manectric VoltTurn core with Crawdaunt taking up the rear and that Aggron/Florges core is tough as hell. Aggron needs his defense EVs though, cause I smacked one for 47% with Crawdaunt's Crabhammer once and that flipped...

    It Will Rain - RU Collab Challenge!

    Yeah, Beartic REALLY needs to be part Water. He'd be so much better. As it is, he just lacks a lot of power. Loving Liepard though, Encore and Taunt together is really useful to keep hazards at bay and discourage setups giving you time to make Rain happen. Ladder challenge looks super tough...

    It Will Rain - RU Collab Challenge!

    Aww thanks! But I didn't prepare an acceptance speech.... Anywho, I've been floating around 30th on the ladder, about 1800 points with Liepard and Uxie summoning, Kabu and Ludicolo sweeping and help from Scarf Rotom-C and Nidoqueen. It's good, but I'm ready to start experimenting. Gonna try out...

    It Will Rain - RU Collab Challenge!

    I've seen the light, and it has a pineapple on it's head. Phazon is totally right about Ludicolo. An incredible sweeper and summoner all wrapped up in one. Hits wacky hard with Hydro Pump (2HKOing Cryo and junk) and can take hits remarkably well. It has been the most valuable poke on my team in...

    It Will Rain - RU Collab Challenge!

    Having just picked up RU for the first time since Stage 7, I was really interested to see how rain would handle this version, and I have been impressed. Except the time I faced a Sun team. To be fair, the guy seemed to have Sunny Day on all his pokes, but the way Eggy could come in on my...

    The Most Dominant Pokemon in RU

    Sceptile @ Flying Gem Trait: Unburden EVs: 4 HP/ 252 Atk / 252 Spd Adamant Nature -Swords Dance -Leaf Blade -Earthquake -Acrobatics Best late game cleaner I've ever used. All you need to do is setup a Dance and save your Acro-Nuke for the bulkiest poke the opponent has left. Doesn't give a damn...

    RU CCAT 2 [Stage 5]

    But since this has been dead since yesterday, I'll add another nominee Whimsicott @ Leftovers Careful Nature 252 HP/252 SDef/4 Spe -Taunt -U-Turn -Encore -Leech Seed Another seeder that can stop rocks from going up in the first place and forces switches like a pro. Basically a back-up Meganium...

    RU CCAT 2 [Stage 5]

    Seconding Sandslash for sure. We need a spinner and a stealth rocker, plus something besides Meganium that can take an Electric attack.

    RU CCAT 2 [Stage 5]

    Moltres @ Choice Specs Modest nature 252 SAtk/4SDef/252 Spe -Fire Blast -Air Slash -Hidden Power (Grass) -U-Turn No need to worry about Cofag anymore, my friends, as Fire Blast from this monster does between 301 and 355 damage to Offensive Cofag (320 HP). On the defensive side, unboosted Shadow...

    Research Week #10 - Bastiodon, Rampardos, Glaceon, Leafeon

    Alt: Snow Big Deal Using: Glaceon Glaceon's defenses are too often overlooked, but it is actually really bulky. I'm gonna try investing in them, since it already outspeeds the walls it'll be taking hits from, and let it force switches with Fake Tears or maybe Yawn.

    Research Week #9 - Lampent, Simipour, Eelektross, Beheeyem

    I don't like being up against Eelektross. Facing it is always a mindgame since it hits so hard and has such ludicrous coverage, not to mention it just jumps around with Volt Switch. He's just bulky enough to not be easy to take down with an unboosted move too, so he forces a LOT of...

    Research Week #9 - Lampent, Simipour, Eelektross, Beheeyem

    Alt: Roswell Using: Beheeyem, the one true pimp. I figure since Trick Plot works so well for Cofagrigus in RU, why not for Beheeyem down here. Might use him with Gurdurr to dispose of Absols and junk. His special attack is as high as Eggy, and we all know how hard that thing hits.

    RU CCAT 2 [Stage 5]

    Can I just say OTR Cofag? Does everybody know what I mean? If not: Cofagrigus @ Leftovers Quiet Nature 252 HP/252 SAtk/4 SDef 0 Speed IV -Shadow Ball -Nasty Plot -Hidden Power (Fighting) -Trick Room The best spinblocker in the tier, bar none, and we need one desperately. Discourages people to...

    RU CCAT 2 [Stage 5]

    With the rising Jynx usage I've noticed over the last little while, and the constant presence of Tangrowth, something to beat those two while offering an offensive option would be nice. For that, I like Magmortar. Magmortar @ Life Orb Trait: Vital Spirit Hasty Nature 24 Atk/252 Sp.Atk/232 Spd...

    Research Week #3: Sigilyph, Golurk, Raichu, Camerupt

    Cracked 1300 with a 3 attacks Sigi/subpunch Golurk providing my (almost) all my offense, 1311 currently. I used to be all about CM, but the roost + 3 atks set is great, HP Fighting adds a ton of coverage options. The only real threat to the two is Cofag, which is cleared out nicely by Skuntank...
