I'm on summer break and I decided to play mons. I just can't get into the groove of Gen V. Like, I can learn about the top threats and everything, that's no big deal to me, basically everything is a threat and if it's not a threat you are doing something right. I get that part, everything kills everything and you can't really counter all the threats.
I just don't get the whole "what pokemon do I use first" part. Like, dpp was so different, a standard team was like SR lead, choice user, sweeper, support, support, wall breaker. But with Gen V is basically just 6 pokemon that work together and all 6 of them have to have some sort of greater purpose than their actual role, if that makes any sense.
Tl;dr how to team build?
Also does stall work in Gen V? It seems like a lot of teams are offensive based and matches are pretty quick.
P.S. Hi.
ninjaedit: also is UU or NU or whatever other tiers better than OU? I know OU can be really polarizing at times and lower tiers seem to have less of a problem with that.
