Well if you used the button that said only show moves from Diamond/Pearl you would see that Agility isn't listed anymore.

Yeah but if you can obtain a 3rd Gen Magnemite with Agility on R/S/E or something, you can always Pal Park it over. :/
 
I was wondering, if Banette got Swords Dance, what would the damage calcs be against the following targets (all of these are Max Attack + Adamant):

+2 LO Shadow Claw vs. Max HP/Max Def Hypno
+2 LO Shadow Sneak vs. Max HP/Max Def Hypno
+2 LO Sucker Punch vs. Max HP/Max Def Hypno

+2 LO Shadow Claw vs. Max HP/Max Def Grumpig
+2 LO Shadow Sneak vs. Max HP/Max Def Grumpig
+2 LO Sucker Punch vs. Max HP/Max Def Grumpig

+2 LO Shadow Claw vs. Max HP/Max Def Claydol
+2 LO Shadow Sneak vs. Max HP/Max Def Claydol
+2 LO Sucker Punch vs. Max HP/Max Def Claydol

+2 LO Brick Break vs. Max HP/Max Def Steelix
 
I'm having trouble with my Blastoise for a complete BL moveset. For my UU team, he is the only one with a problem.

The mirror coat affected his spread and...

Blastoise @ Leftovers
Nature: calm
152 HP/ 252 Def/ 108 Special Def
Surf
Aqua Ring
Toxic
Mirror Coat

I'm thinking, I replace either Toxic or Aqua Ring (I could replace Toxic) for Protect, to scout my opponent's moves and for a free turn to heal from Aqua Ring and Leftovers, but that's just the problem...

Stupid Scizor's X-scissor... Damn Uber Skymin....

So then you'd click the R/S/E/FR/LG button and see that it also isn't listed there anymore.

That's why all the reliable sites (serebii, smogon etc) seperate their lists by Generations to avoid problems like this, so just because you see it's possible on one site doesn't mean it is possible for the 4th Generation.

+2 LO Shadow Claw vs. Max HP/Max Def Claydol

+2 LO Shadow Sneak vs. Max HP/Max Def Claydol

54.32% - 64.19%
+2 LO Brick Break vs. Max HP/Max Def Steelix
28.81% - 34.46%

Keep in mind, most of those sets don't run Max Def, anyway. BTW, Sucker Punch doesn't get a STAB. You know that, right? Enjoy...

Flygon@ Choice specs
Timid
252 Sp.Atk/252Speed/6hp
Heat Wave/Fire Blast
Earth Power
Dragon Pulse/Draco Meteor
Giga Drain/Grass knot

I just made it up for my BL team.

It's viable...I'd go with that moveset though. Heatwave is inferior to Fire Blast, same thing with Dragon Pulse to Draco Meteor. Grass Knot will give you more power than Gige Drain. HP Ice could be useful as well.

I like it. Could be a nasty surprise for those who are thinking the standard mix set or choice banded variants. Just make sure you use it correctly, as it won't have as many shots to work as a more standard set.

EDIT: You're going to want modest>timid...Just so those Specs don't go to waste. The increase in power will make up for the speed loss.
 
Yeah i know i need good prediction to make it work, i hate being restricted to one attack.
i was also thinking of life orb or expert belt as an option
 
There are quite a few sets that ppl use very commonly. Yache DDMence, Bulky Mence,SpecsMence.All of these sets aren't too bad, but I-and a lot of other RMTer's here- probably agree that the best Mence Variant is Mixmence.
 
Noctowl@Choice Specs
Timid
252SpAtt/252Spd/6HP
Heat Wave
Air Slash
HP Ground
Psychic/Shadow Ball

Noctowl's offensive stats (SpAtt and Speed) are very poor, you're gonna have to use specs if you wanna make any sort of impression on the battle. As for the set, the 3 types that resist flying are hit by HP ground for super effective damage instead. Heat wave then covers the stuff that neither Air slash or HP hit, namely skarmory, bronzong and zapdos. If this is for UU, then psychic can put holes in the plethora of fighting types that appear everywhere. In OU you may prefer shadow ball to hit the likes of azelf and cresselia harder.
 
I have been an OU battler for quite a while now and I have finally decided I want to take a step down and try my hand at UU. It would be awesome if you could help me out a bit. Do you think you could tell me some of the most powerful:

Physical Sweepers
Special Sweepers
Mixed Sweepers
Tanks
Physical Walls
Special Walls
Mixed Walls
Leads.

Thanks everyone.
 
Well, your beloved Hitmonlee's a powerful physical sweeper in UU...

Main Special Walls are Hypno, Grumpig and Clefable.
 
<_< Asking for the most powerful of anything in UU metagame is like asking what is the best pokemon in the entire metagame.

You'll get a beshevled amount of different responses, and almost all of them will be based on pesonal use and experience.

With UU becoming more and more popular, you'll notice it's mainly people focusing on the pokemon they like and the stats they have.

And to the Poster above the 2

Dusknoir @ Leftovers
Impish
252 HP / 252 Def / 6 SpD
Ice Punch/Tpunch/Fire Punch
Will-o-Wisp
Pain Split
EQ/Shadow Sneak

The choice of EQ/Shadow Sneak or which Elemental punch is up for grabs, as it is mainly based on what your team needs to counter.
I like EQ simply for Heatrans which are SO common these days with so many Scizors sweeping the metagame.
Its based on personal opinion and what you need to dodge more :)
