Venturing into the world of UU... [RMT]
So I decided to try UU the other day, and I must say it's quite refreshing after the monotony of OU battling. What do you guys think?
Anyway, I understand that speed is a big issue in UU compared to OU, so I'd appreciate it if you guys gave suggested speed stats and told me what they're to beat.
Manectric (F) @ Petaya Berry
Trait: Static
EVs: 12 HP / 252 Spd / 244 SAtk
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Hidden Power [Ice]
- Substitute
- Thunder Wave
- Thunderbolt
Outruns most stuff, can check sets with sub, can clean late game, etc. Crunch over Twave for Hypno? But even then I'm not sure it would do that much damage...
Solrock @ Choice Band
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 148 HP / 224 Atk / 136 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Explosion
- Rock Slide
- Shadow Ball
Much more durable than Fearow, better movepool, supports Gligar, etc. More/less HP/Def?
Vileplume (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Chlorophyll
EVs: 252 HP / 116 Def / 20 SAtk / 120 SDef
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Aromatherapy
- Hidden Power [Grass]

lol 4 grass moves. Sleep and AT support work well enough, I suppose.
Omastar (F) @ Leftovers

Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Hidden Power [Flying]

With rocks and oma, I can be more lax on the defensive end. QA over RS? More speed?
Hypno (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Insomnia

Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Protect

Protect over Reflect b/c I never used it even once lol. Also good for predicting CBers.
Any other glaring weaks now? Any more helpful comments/suggestions would be appreciated.
