Ha, I enjoy that Sand was by far the easiest retained of the three, though played it right it is just as powerful. I think people just got accustom to sand in gen 4, and getting rid of it now would feel too strange to them (plus oh no! My T-Tar!). Not to say I don't agree with the decision...

Alakazam is in RU? That's below UU right? Color me surprised, what with Magic Guard.

Er, just something rather urgent. Ninetails needs drought as its ability. Didn't really look at the rest, except that personally, I'd run a Life Orb on Victreebel, not the Leftovers, because I like to hit hard, and Victreebel can't really take any hits anyhow to make good use of the Leftovers.

Electivire is just begging to catch a Thunderbolt off of Eelektross and then run amok, especially if he can catch Garchomp moving in. Is that worth making a bunch of changes for? Probably not. In general, though, I think Electric pokemon with decent movepools will give you trouble, especially...

Bulbapedia indicates it works on all pokemon in a double/triple battle. I know that's not your question, but since the pokemon are still considered "on the field" in the sense that they don't lose their boosts, I'm tempted to say it will work in rotation battles on all pokemon. Best way might...

Against a Dry Skin user, fire moves do double damage, and water damages are absorbed. In rain, the user gets healed at the end of each turn, and in sun, the user receives damage. I didn't know that being in the different weathers also changes how the attacks work (the person who comments seems...

Er, don't mean to seem rude, because I think you're right that Durant could pose a serious problem to this team, but that seems like a pretty big if. There's no reason the Slowbro shouldn't be out there on the first hone claw? Seems like some pretty heavy theorymonning, is all. Now, if Slowbro...

Yeah, that's right, that's what I meant. Pokerus is a bit like Mono, in that sense. Though I guess you can always pass that on...

What Vrai said is true, but I'll add that Pokerus "cures" itself after the pokemon is in your party for 24 hours, regardless of level, and the PKRS symbol will turn into a smiley face.

Based on what? It doesn't have the same awesome moveset, it's carrying Sword Dance even though he says it is supposed to have the dance passed to it, it's equipped with a focus sash even though its a sweeper, and it carries more weaknesses, including a x4 (which he already has to carry a pokemon...

Ha, I really like that Mew play, though I'll bet you're going to get a boatload of people in here telling you Reuniclus outclasses him. Obviously, the team seems to do well if Mew is alive (I notice most of the threats you list as major threats can be covered by Mew, depending on their moveset)...

I don't think Leftovers can be bought with BP? You'll have to trade for more. They are pretty cheap, considering it is near-impossible to track what is and is not AR'd in to my knowledge, item-wise.

Well, TTC will be out of town all week, and told me on Friday night, while him and Dusknoirs were trying to do battle, that if he couldn't get one in Saturday morning, he would probably just have to forfeit the match? I believe he comes back this Saturday (the 4th of June). If you want to wait...

Maybe something: Though I've not used it myself, I think Azumarill works well to punish rain teams, and fits in well with the team theme of speed with his devastating STAB+Rain+Priority Aqua Jet, and Superpower and Ice Punch do well to punish most other threats on rain teams? Someone, please...

Unless you use Toxic on Chansey often, you could switch it to T-Wave. It's one of the few statuses that can throw Reuniclus off its game, though it is based on luck.
