The main reason for forretress' inclusion in the team was that the bulky waters that I have seen carry toxic so latias gets destroyed by them, otherwise I would've used skarmory>>>>>>forretress because it is faster and has whirlwind. I'll try your set but honestly getting rid of pert in one...

Not many of you have fought this team but since making it I have updated it constantly to attempt to contain certain other threats. And now I believe the team is at its peak but still I cannot find any decent solution to Tyranitar without screwing up another aspect of the team, hence putting it...

*image removed* Feraligatr: Screech, Bite, Slash, Hydro Pump Flareon: Sand Attack, Quick Attack, Bite, Lava Plume Forretress: Bug Bite, Gyro Ball, Explosion, Iron Defence Magneton: Spark, Magnet Bomb, Thunder Wave, Magnet Rise Sandslash: Earthquake, Defence Curl, Rollout (just for kicks!)...

Malevolent Mismagius Thanks

If you want a second ground immunity/fighting resist besides gyarados you could possibly run a offensive calm mind Latias >> CMcune. Then you don't such a massive Zapdos weak.

I may be a bit rusty as I haven't played in a while, but: Scizor@ Life Orb/Leftovers 248 HP/252 Atk/8 Spd Adamant Sword Dance Bullet Punch Superpower/Brick Break Bug Bite/Roost + Latias@ Leftovers/Life Orb 4 Hp/252 SAtk /252 Spd Timid Draco Meteor Surf/Thunderbolt Clam Mind/Thunderbolt...

Can a mod close this? I plan on opening a new one soon.

Isn't the tiering based on usage, or was I just wrong? Secondly, I believe not many pokemon will be able to straight out overwhelm Manaphy, which makes it pretty hard to counter. Thirdly, in the rain Kingdra is beastly. Coupled with Manaphy, RD teams would be even harder to beat, meaning...

I'm adding skarmory lead for spikes + SR. We'll see how that goes. Using scizor again, specially defensive to check starmie. Any thoughts?

Latias: Strong but not unbeatable, I think everyone agrees that with its Pursuit weakness and the abundance of things like CBtar, CBscizor and specially defensive Metagross all carrying this move even without Latias considered means it doesn't really smash the OU metagame that much. But to...

I plan on running some sort of special sweeper which is pursuit bait to help beat Scizor. have the early game sweeper pursuited and then bring in Magnezone or Heatran. It really helps get rid of ALL the steels before mence comes out to sweep, as I have been having problems losing Magnezone and...

I've made the changes that I think are worth it. I'm not sure about how to deal with LOStarmie, but I have noticed the problem. I won't run CBnite, I need to check Lucario. I might just run my normal lead metagross spread, 204 HP / 80 ATT / 224 DEF, Adamant @ leftovers. survives two cbtar...

mencemeat! With exams coming I haven’t had a lot of opportunity to make a team, but now they are over and I can start up again. Browsing over more recent teams here I was interested in the excellent synergy between magnezone+salamence, in fact, who couldn’t be, with mence’s dominance in today’s...

I suggest you make your swampert lead. swampert @ leftovers 252 HP/252 def/4 satk impish ice beam EQ roar SR Rotom-A>>dusknoir. dusknoir is generally outclassed these days by rotom because of it's typing. it resists scizor's attacks rather than being smashed by them. maybe just a standard...

To somewhat remedy your weakness to smeargle leads you could run a gliscor lead >>swampert. currently using one with plenty of success. Gliscor @ Leftovers 108 HP/96 atk/88 def/216 spe jolly EQ SR stone edge/fire fang/uturn/taunt Roost you still have ground typing to resist paralysis, and...
