    I decided to take a cut at the UU side of Shoddy, and here is my first UU team!

    Drapion@ Life Orb
    Jolly Nature, Sniper Ability
    4 Def, 252 Atk, 252 Spe

    Swords Dance
    Ice Fang
    Earthquake
    Night Slash

    SD Drapion.

    Altaria @Leftovers
    Calm Nature
    252 HP, 200 Def, 56 Sp. Def

    Roost
    Heal Bell
    Dragon Pulse
    Flamethrower

    Support Pokemon. Heal Bell is there for curing status, Roost for recovery, Dragon Pulse for STAB, and Flamethrower for Steels and Ices that come up against me.

    Claydol @Leftovers
    Bold Nature
    252 HP/ 144 Def/ 114 Spa

    Rapid Spin
    Heal Block
    Earth Power
    Stealth Rock

    Another supporter, this one to prevent recovery and get rid of rocks, as well as put them up. That just sounded ironic.

    Butterfree@ Wide Lens
    Timid Nature
    138 HP/ 152 Sp. Def./ 120 Def./ 100 Spe


    Sleep Powder
    Stun Spore
    U-Turn
    HP Fire

    Double Powder Free. Main purpose is to put up status, then run away.

    Shiftry@ Choice Scarf
    Timid Nature
    Chlrophyll
    6 HP/ 252 Spa/ 252 Spe

    Explosion
    Leaf Storm
    Dark Pulse
    HP Fire.

    Special Sweepin Shiftry. HP Fire is there to help counter my ice weakness.

    Lanturn @Leftovers
    Calm Nature
    Volt Absorb
    40 HP/ 80 Speed/ 252 Sp. Def./ 136 Sp. Atk.

    Discharge
    Confuse Ray
    Ice Beam
    Surf

    Special Wall and Ice counter. Also helps with parafusion.


    Well, there's the team. Raters, come on down and feast heartily on criticism.

    Drapion wants life orb or scope lens. If you use scope lens, consider Cross Poison. You'll get lots of crits.
    Lead with Claydol or Butterfree or Mr.Mime.
    Altaria wants Flamethrower/Fire Blast, EQ is pointless.
    Shiftry wants HP Fire, he's completely walled by Steels
    Overall 3/10.
     
    Good luck getting completely destroyed by Focus Sash Froslass, who can 2HKO Drapion, Taunt Mr.Mime, and basically OHKO every other pokemon on your team (barring Claydol, but it will be dented hard).

    I recommend a Scarf Shiftry, as it can surprise some opponents and hit hard with Leaf Storm, while also having Explosion if things get messy. Shifry barely has any time for setting up, it should hit hard right off the bat.
     
    I'll run LO on drapion, switch shiftry to HP fire and scarf. Do you think I should but in phlosion or a fire type to counter my froslass weakness?
     
    If you want Parafusion and a good ice counter, use Lanturn instead of Mr.Mime.

    Also make shiftry modest with Leaf Storm, Dark Pulse, Explosion and HP ice or Energy Ball for last slot.
     
    One quick comment; why is Altaria Careful when it has two special attacks? I think you mean Calm nature. That seemed to jump out at me the quickest.

    I don't see Heal Block being too useful on Claydol, but then again, it could help clinch a wall's death. Use Ice Beam if you want additional coverage, but if it works for you, then keep it.

    On Shiftry, Leaf Storm and Scarf are excellent together. You're going to be switching a lot as it is. Also, in the HP Ice vs. HP Fire argument, you can either be walled by Altaria (to an extent) or Steels. You do have coverage of each on other Pokemon, but whatever you want to revenge more, that's what this is for.

    Yeah, I meant Calm, looked at the wrong nature.

    Heal Block works fine.

    My team is mainly Ice weak, so I'll run with HP Fire.

    If you want Parafusion and a good ice counter, use Lanturn instead of Mr.Mime.

    Will siwtch to Lanturn. Here's a set. Is this okay:

    Lanturn @Leftovers
    Calm Nature
    Volt Absorb
    40 HP/ 80 Speed/ 252 Sp. Def./ 136 Sp. Atk.

    Thunder Wave
    Confuse Ray
    Discharge
    Surf
     
    With Discharge and the 30% chance to paralyze, you can opt for Ice Beam for grass types if you'd like unless you NEED that instant paralysis gratification.
     
    Yay for Butterfree :3
    I prefer this set up.
    Butterfree @Wide Lens Timid
    138 HP/ 152 Sp. Def./ 120 Def./ 100 Speed
    Bug Buzz
    Hidden Power Ice
    Sleep Powerder
    Stun Spore
     
    Need? No. I'll run Ice Beam

    I like the set there Fiore, however ima stick with HP Fire, make sure froslass doesn't completely wall free.
