The Scottish Wonder

[TP-BigWill]

Just incase you were wondering, Im not Scottish but I do beleive this is. Im working on my Uu team and advice is always appreciated.

Lapras (Rodney) @ leftovers
Sassy- 252 hp/ 252 atk/ 6 sp.def

Curse
Body Slam
Waterfall
Ice Shard

The set is solid for a tank. Although Im not a fan of the additional weaknesses of Ice/Water typing, I love the stab moves. Waterfall and Ice Shard are self explanitory. I choose curse over d-dance mainly because Jolly Lapras will never out run anything after a d-dance, so I turned him into a tank. I think Body Slam is a good option with paralysis, but a shallow physical movepool is tough to work with.

Anyone have suggestions? Btw, I know Sp. lapras is more diverse, but My team can always use a physical tank.

Well DDtar can never outrun anything but people use that anyways...

Honestly I think the weaknesses are really going to hinder it, but give it a whack.

Just hope that it does not get stuck against Agiligross or something. E,poleon and Shedinja completely wall it.

Last I checked Empoleon is BL/OU and nobody uses Sheddy though...

Because of Sandstorm, you forgot to mention. :P

Meh. I'd make more bulky in SpD, otherwise, b the likes of NPAzelf and common stuff in D/P, he's screwed.

You're probably best using a Resttalk variant, like Snorlax, this gen. :/

Sassy is also a bad nature for Lapras. If you REALLY want to use it as a physical tank, run Impish.

Well I would think Curse would deal with phys. defense. It doesn't look like a bad set, I'm not really familiar enough with Lapras to jump to too many conclusions was what I was getting at ;) If the set is only walled by Empoleon and (lol) Sheddy, then I'd say coverage is fine. It doesn't look bad, just not dominant. But hey, I don't know the UU game well, so I'd get more opinions on it.

DDtar, NPAzelf, Snorlax, Agiligross....

Either the UU has changed, or you guys missed the part where he said this was for a UU team

lol.....i think the curse aspect gives it the defense it needs.

but proping sassy nature and some EVs seems like a sound strat though

Meh. The opponent won't be stupid enough usually to let you get THAT many Curses in. So you won't be surviving that long with just Curse in play. EDIT: Byw, Skarmory walls this, and can Roar you away.

 

[TP-BigWill]

Lol...the day Skarmory ever goes Uu is the day Castform will go Ou.

Although It's counterpart fearow might do the trick
*points out ice shard*
