Camerupt works, but it isn't fast.

Zen Headbutt is way better in that last slot imo, it allows you to beat some of its biggest counters, Rotom, Zapdos, Swampert etc all take massive damage from it and it has awesome neutral coverage to hits things like Gyarados whilst still hitting those aformentioned pokes.

 

[Anti]

Not like it really matters, but adding on to what Ginger_Elf said, Zen Headbutt has a sexy flinch chance to abuse, which helps because of Agility.

I know but Smogon said NOT to get rid of Explosion.

 

[Fire Wolf]

In my UU team, I need a last pokemon. My team is: Gallade, Rhyperior, Frosslass, Alakazam and Raikou. Can someone recommend a last pokemon?

 

[Dark Azelf]

No, it doesnt say that. Only on CB gross does it say that but the metagross analysis is imo outdated anyway.

You need a Gallade counter or check, Swords Dance/Shadow Sneak/Close Combat/Filler = painful for your team. That and you lose to SD Sceptile badly.

Put in a Swellow or something to revenge kill both.

But realistically putting all 6 suspects on your team is lol and destined to failing, you REALLY need a better fighting resist. Replace something.

Also with no sets/evs etc we cant do much. :|

Bug Bite deals 10 more base power due to Technician.

@D-A OMG y dont they just keep im in uu or ou, 1st he's uu then ou now uu, y not bl

His usage was not up to standards, so he dropped to UU. And, he's being tested.

So how does this team work together?

 

[Charmeleon>charizard]

Would a scizor make a good sweeper?

Im thinking about a dragon dance/baton pass to an ATT/SPD trained scizor, would that turn out well?

 

[FreakyLocz14]

Sets I'm considering:

Lucario @ Life Orb
Modest nature
EVs: 252 SpA/252 Speed
-Calm Mind
-Aura Sphere
-Shadow Ball
-Wacuum Wave

Set a CM or two then sweep with Fighting/Ghost excellent coverage.

Also I need an NU Bannete Trick set, since Frisk will let me see what I'll get with Trick.

Im thinking about a dragon dance/baton pass to an ATT/SPD trained scizor, would that turn out well?

Scizor can obviously benefit from a BP'd Dragon Dance.

Try it on CBScizor Bullet Punch/U-Turn set.

 

[wolf]

It does better with Swords Dance being passed to it, because it powers up Bullet Punch which hits faster Pokemon anyway. But, I guess Dragon Dance would work out too.

 

[Charmeleon>charizard]

I am making a scizor sweeper. Hes gonna have ATT/DEF evs. this is what im thinking so far, since im going to dragon dance - baton pass to my scizor.

X scissor (has stab)
U-Turn (for switching to my wall if things get bad)
Swords dance (In case dragon dance baton pass fails)
I havent decided a fourth, maybe giga impact for suicides? idk
