wispy peak
#

slowbro set seems lke it allows for ttar to 6-0 if its sub dd too kinda

#

feel like u need a slowbro that can hit it here if ur gonna be using multiple mons that afford ttar a set up

foggy swallow
#

thats a good point

#

i havent seen sub dd ttar in a while though

wispy peak
#

its not something i particularly appreciate being weak to especially since dd taunt could do the same potentially anyway

#

just not quite as easily

#

when i evaluate how big of a deal dd ttar losing is i tend to just look at its set up opportunities mostly

#

and when u have two choiced mons that can both give easy set up and a non willo tflame

#

thats a lot of set up opportunities

foggy swallow
#

were removing gengar

#

for tink

#

i think tink shocks ice beam slowbro is solid enough into hurricane spammers

#

on slowbro i would run rocky helmet with surf ice beam psychic

#

probably

wispy peak
#

yea

foggy swallow
#

so currently its slowbro sandy shocks tinkaton cyclizar gallade

#

i dont know about a last mon tbh

#

esta do you have any ideas

wispy peak
#

hm

#

probably keep the talon last honestly lol

foggy swallow
#

yeah thats fine

#

oh right scizor

#

flare blitz taunt u turn roost tflame last nice

oak silo
#

Honestly that was just me power tripping (I usually do that picking up a tier lol)

#

I totally get how that'd be overkill though.

#

Doesn't help that Gallade is one of my favorite mons so that just takes that even further.

#

Was mostly thinking RegenVest to Pivot around Gengar, since ik that's a big threat in the tier rn.

#

Also is Agillade still Jolly? Or can it afford Adamant?

#

Actually no scratch that Ada means you get Revenged by Scarf Geng

i think scarf gallade can run adamant

Whats the best decidueye set in uu

foggy swallow
#

some varient of offensive defog is the most common one

#

Decidueye @ Heavy-Duty Boots

IVs: 0 Atk

  • Shadow Ball
  • Leaf Storm
  • Roost
  • Defog
#

it can run physical attacking sets too

#

also it can just be used as a pivot

#

if you dont need hazard removal

lean monolith
#

I’d go cyclizar over mence here

#

av preferably

#

gives you hazard clearance + double Regen with mola

#

make tinkaton rocks

#

have sandy shocks be the standard pivot set

#

play rough over chilling water on mola

#

replace gastro with rest talk wo chien for better status absorbtion

foggy swallow
#

gengar can be specs probably

#

if you have cylcizar

#

or maybe some tspikes set

#

but scarf is perfectly fine too

toxic oxide
#

wanted to run venomoth

#

i dont have a hazard remover and im not sure who i should change

narrow thicket
#

thanks for the feedback

foggy swallow
#

for one venomoth kinda sucks

#

you only run grimmsnarl on hyper offense teams

#

all its meant to do is get screens and die

#

so its pretty mid on balance

#

venomoth can maybe work

#

i know meru had a frosmoth team that won in uupl and they are similar

#

this team is incredibly weak to armarouge

#

with 4 fire weaks a mon that dies to energy ball

#

so i think you getting rid of scizor is a good idea

#

aswell as grimm

#

i think like paraspam with venomoth could be pretty cool

#

so make tinkaton twave over encore

#

and maybe swap gastro for slowbro with twave slack off psychic surf

#

in terms of not having hazard control i think that decidueye could work nicely over wo chien

#

it can knock off tink n stuff

#

aswell as defog

#

and in the last slots i think pivot sandy shocks with tera ground and spikes earth power volt switch tbolt

#

and talonflame with flare blitz taunt u turn and roost

#

could be good as the last mons

foggy swallow
toxic oxide
#

ooh ok ok i see

toxic oxide
#

you could choose between bug buzz or sludge bomb but being walled by the most common mon kinda sucks

#

you could also run morning sun over sub if you wanted

toxic oxide
#

when coming up with the original team i was focusing on having a good mu against rain (see physdef wochien)

#

i also think parting shot would be pretty good but grafaiai isnt great in the current meta unfortunately

foggy swallow
#

slowbro and decidueye should be fine vs rain

foggy swallow
#

i like this team alot actually

#

i think it would be cool if you went boots tspikes gren and scarf hex gengar but thats definitely not neccesary

#

i would run draco meteor instead of overheat on cyclizar

#

and probably go max spdef hippowdon because its your best hurricane switchin

#

the last thing is focus blast > energy ball on gengar

#

good work looks like a nice team

I've never played UU before but I want to get into it

#

Did I burn the kitchen down?

rustic bay
#

need mons to round this out

hybrid vapor
#

i would recommend using a diff gren set (stabs/uturn/tspikes for starters), and figuring out what to use from there; for example, you could switch out forre for a spinner like cyclizar, and peli for a ground type instead, etc

dense sedge
foggy swallow
#

what i would do

#

is i would make gren tspikes u turn grass knot hydro pump

#

with boots

#

swap forretress for assault vest donphan (the smogon set)

#

(keeps a spinner and gives you a ground type + knock off)

#

i would also swap tflame for scream tail so you can have some wish support

#

make salamence the special attacking set with tera water

#

and swap pelipper to sd scizor

#

the sd u turn one

#

so to sum up

#

pelipper > scizor
forre > donphan
talon > scream tail
mence > special attacking set
do what sulo said with greninja

#

maybe tera ghost wo chien is a good idea too

wanted feedback on this team (decided on decidueye and t tar as the main breakers on this team, was wondering if t wave would be better on slowbro potentially)

proven parrotBOT
#

New UU RMT @wispy peak, @trim snow, @low kernel, @lean monolith, @cursive vale, @foggy swallow. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.

wispy peak
#

definitely put stealth rock > tbolt on sandy shocks if ur not running spikes since ttar wont rly wanna clikc them anywya

#

kill the attack from cyclizar and just invest it into ur bulk too

#

ur slowbro would probably appreciate some spdef on this to handle mence better too so u dont have to rely too much on cyc / ttar (since one of htem gets draco'd and the other doesnt have passive recovery at all)

#

appreciate it more if slowbro can at least contest it a bit and punish non hurricane clicks a bit more

dense sedge
wispy peak
#

not got one on hand but u can just play around with it while giving like break point benchmarks to ur slowbro etc like 96 bold etc

#

might wanna check for some relevant 2hkos from like ttar and the like while ur doing it

wispy peak
#

just investments that give +2 in a stat instead of +1 when you have a positive nature

#

so 16+, 56+, 96+ all do it etc

dense sedge
honest quiver
#

I do not know what the funky am I doing so yeah LOL

foggy swallow
#

youve kinda made half of a hyper offense team

#

but then theres a tinkaton lol

#

i think swap gengar for oricorio pompom

#

and swap tink for polteeagiest

#

and swap brick break for taunt/spirit break on grimm

#

generally specs mons arent so good on hyper offense teams because being locked into your moves give your opponent opportunities

#

the idea with pompom and polteagiest is that they both can weaken tinkaton and tyranitar for eachother

dont like the double choices though

Change the slither set?

Or iron

lean monolith

yeah

#

jugulis could be booster energy or boots

wispy peak

i woulda kept cb and done wild charge myself probably since u rly do kinda appreciate talon going bye on this

lean monolith

with taunt over u-turn

wispy peak

and then maybe gone booster energy or boots jugs instead

#

but kept u-turn on this

deci knocks talon

#

i would just make slither pads so you dont get burnt

#

i will get back to you on this one

#

soon!!!

foggy swallow
#

this seems okay at first glance

#

i think scizor should be running u turn bullet punch close combat swords dance

#

with heavy duty boots and tera fire

#

instead of the current set

#

on sandy shocks instead of runnign power gem you can swap that for sstealth rock

#

swap donphan for gastrodon i think

sullen basin
#

imo choose a lead, phan / gren both work

foggy swallow
#

with stealth rock recover ice beam earth power

#

and hevay duty boots

#

i think run decidueye over talonflame with defog roost leaf storm shadow ball

#

and the gren is fine but run heavy duty boots with ice beam u turn hydro pump grass knot instead

#

to sum up
donphan -> gastrodon
scizor -> boots tera fire set with cc/bp/sd/u-turn
talonflame -> decidueye
greninja -> boots set with gk/hydro/ice beam.u turn
sandy shocks -> run spikes over power gem

#

yeah thats not worth it

i am talking about the other persons team

#

Oh sorry

foggy swallow
#

your team is a bit weak to scizor

#

i think make talonflame taunt flare blitz roost u turn

robust pecan
foggy swallow
#

smogon set works fine

foggy swallow
#

i think gastrodon should be tera ghost because you have a big problem with quaquaval right now

strange charm
foggy swallow
#

i think you do alright into rain mons with cyclizar and shocks and gastro

strange charm
#

I just realised that ghost resists bug and poison
So ghost might be better

#

I am still concerned with the likes of Wo-Chien and Tinkaton
The former being really annoying
U-turn only deals like 46% damage

foggy swallow
#

with tera ice shocks and cyclizar it should be manageable

strange charm
#

What could Cylizar do against Wo-Chien?

hybrid vapor
#

knocks and does big chip with uturn

#

knocking a wo chien is rlly good for you

strange charm
#

Oh yeah good point

hybrid vapor
#

lets you pressure it with hazards much much more

#

also you do have ice beam gren to sort of lure it anyways

#

and yea like qob said tera ice shocks works wonders vs grasses in general too

strange charm
#

I think i find it annoying because Wo-Chien can be annoying with knock off

hybrid vapor
#

it does look a little annoying yea i agree

#

something is guaranteed to lose a valuable item here

strange charm
#

For me it's always Talonflame

#

Cause I keep thinking that Talonflame can hold it off with Brave Bird + Roost

strange charm
foggy swallow
#

you can taunt it and u turn to sandy shocks

strange charm
#

Oh yeah good point

#

Flare Blitz I realise can also deal decently against Tinkaton

foggy swallow
#

yup

#

the plan into sciz is to taunt

#

because you can expect the tera fire

strange charm
#

Would it be easier if I u-turned first, then has Sandy Shocks use Earth power
(In case it has Trailblaze)

foggy swallow
#

that would work too

@foggy swallow
Thanks for your feedback
Here's the updated team: https://pokepast.es/c65c8c77c3434178
I decided to not have Tera Ice Blast on Sandy Shocks because it doesn't deal enough damage on Wo-Chien
That being said, I was wondering whether it's better to have Tera Steel on Scizor to boost Scizor's Bullet Punch even further

foggy swallow
#

sandy is tera grass

#

i think that you should be running terablast ice probably

#

and keep tera fire methinks

robust pecan
#

Would you suggest that for me as well? My shocks is tera grass currently

strange charm
foggy swallow
#

yeah replace tbolt

#

it deals like half

#

lol?

foggy swallow
strange charm
# foggy swallow it deals like half

252 SpA Tera Ice Sandy Shocks Tera Blast vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Wo-Chien: 146-174 (39 - 46.5%) -- guaranteed 3HKO after Leftovers recovery
That's the calculation I got when using Wo-Chien's spread in the LeechSeed set
Unless Wo-Chien normally runs in physical defense

foggy swallow
#

noone runs max spdef

#

and with stealth rock thats a 2hko i think maybe

strange charm
lean monolith
#

leech seed is garbage anyway

foggy swallow
#

wellll

#

not garbage but rest talk is broken

#

theres opportunity cost for not using the really good one

mystic walrus
#

leech seed is also terrible for the wo-chien mirror lmao

mystic walrus
strange charm
mystic walrus
#

well sludge bomb would fulfill the same thing against grass types and poison status is huge as it can burn through mence's roost pp and the fairies would have to burn through wish a lot more and not be able to cm up (more relevant for florges/sylveon)

strange charm
#

Would it be better then to have Tera Poison instead of Tera Ghost for Gastrodon?
It would boost up the power for Sludge Bomb.

mystic walrus
#

U can but u also don't really have any other spin blocker on ur team. If ur doing tera poison it should be for poison/toxic immunity but the stab bonus on sludge can be nice too

#

It really is a matter of how much u value keeping ur hazards up or if u value not having to deal with toxic

strange charm
#

I think it's more of the former that I am concerned with (keeping hazards up)
So I'll go ahead with ghost

wanted to build around pawmot but didnt know what to include

foggy swallow

this seems good i like it

#

just a few things i would change

#

run boots sd u turn bullet punch close combat scizor

#

tera fire

#

i dont think choice band is very good

#

and you dont have a very good win con as of right now

toxic oxide
#

i ran into that issue while testing

foggy swallow
#

i also think that sandy shocks should be running stealth rocks instead of tbolt and scream tail should be running encore instead oif stealth rocks

toxic oxide
#

si si i fixed those already too

#

i also changed shocks tera to grass

foggy swallow
#

good plan

#

and some small things but you only need 176 speed on cyclizar

#

and you should be running 104 special attack to ohko mence with draco

#

also its running max attack right now???

#

run 176 speed or 180 to speed creep other cyclizar, 104 spatck and the rest in hp

#

and the scream tail only really needs to outspeed iron jugulis

#

you get to run some defense then

#

and run tera ground

#

for pawmot

toxic oxide
#

why not electric?

#

what does ground do

toxic oxide
foggy swallow
#

lol fair

foggy swallow
toxic oxide
#

i see i see

#

is ice punch better than seed bomb?

foggy swallow
#

nope

#

well actually yes

toxic oxide
#

either i get walled by grass types or i get walled by gastrodon

foggy swallow
#

it kills mence

#

gastro super doesnt wall you

#

you 2hko with close combat

#

you 2hko quag aswell with some chip

#

i think ice punch is better yeah

oh interesting

okay cool

because decidueye exists now aswell as mence being a bitch

rapid heron
#

Made this team on a whim and wanted to get some feedback from some more knowledgeable players,

foggy swallow
#

okay

#

forretress is a pretty shitty pokemon

#

there are better steel types and there are better rapid spinners

#

it has "good role compression" but it doesnt do any of its jobs very well

#

swap forre --> tinkaton

rapid heron
#

what other spinner would be better

#

because I want Jugs to be safe on switches

foggy swallow
#

cyclizar could work well

#

also just run boots jugulis on something like this

rapid heron
#

i like the extra damage from life orb. i would run booster energy but i would have to make the evs wonky

foggy swallow
#

if you want boosted damage use specs

#

not lorb though

hybrid vapor
#

lo unnecessarily wears it down which is not good for something that can take hits in a pinch vs stuff like choiced gengar

foggy swallow
#

^

hybrid vapor
#

also means people can pivot around it much more easily

rapid heron
#

true, but i also the versatility of iron jugs move pool and would like use it on the fly

foggy swallow
#

boots

#

then

rapid heron
#

maybe boots

foggy swallow
#

it doesnt need the extra power its strong enough and its coverage is great

rapid heron
#

true

foggy swallow
#

run u turn though

rapid heron
#

would i still want the bike boy if i have boots?

foggy swallow
#

yeah

#

i think hydro jugulis is cool

#

like hurricane earth power hydro seems like it would be a good set

#

because the most common switchins to jugulis are bulky grounds

#

but i guess you flop into gastrodon still

#

nevermind

hybrid vapor
#

its good for like hippo but i cant remember what else it hits

#

if anything else at all

rapid heron
#

not often you see hydro and flamethrower on a mon

foggy swallow
#

yeah just hippo

#

hydro and flamethrower isnt that good

#

for this meta

rapid heron
#

i was also thinking about trying a revamped bulky team i made a while back

#

it wasnt that good but it was pretty fun

#

it's very weak to ground but i enough the really bulky mons like mr. snail and t-tar

foggy swallow
#

one team at a time maybe

rapid heron
#

oops

#

my b

foggy swallow
#

what exactly

#

did you build around

#

whats your main poke

rapid heron
#

for the first team, it was jug and slowbro

#

and the second, t-tar and wo-chien

foggy swallow
#

okay for the first one

#

i think maushold -> av cyclizar
forre -> tinkaton
jugulis -> boots

#

the pawmot set is very odd

#

and i dont really like it

#

i think you should run mach punch -> seed bomb and rest -> revival blessing and nat cure

#

this team doesnt have a ground type

#

which is a bad thing

rapid heron
#

im guessing ground is king in UU?

foggy swallow
#

nope just electric immunities are always very important

#

in every metagame

#

sandy shocks is a top mon too

#

and blocking its volt switches is nice

rapid heron
#

so hippo maybe, possibly sandy

foggy swallow
#

espeon is a bad pokemon pretty much, i think it could be swapped out for a ground type

#

maybe gastrodon/hippo

#

spdef hippo seems good here

#

although sand might be annoying

#

you could run gastrodon and not run slowbro

#

if you want

#

i think that would be better

rapid heron
#

iron defense with body press and stored power would catch people off guard ngl

foggy swallow
#

maybe but catching people off guard doesnt make it good neccesarily

rapid heron
#

but gastro is probs better

#

i just think slowbro is funny

#

gastro has way less weaknesses

foggy swallow
#

slowbro is fine but i dont think its needed here

#

i think the last pokemon needs to deal with physdef hippowdon

#

actually

#

scizor is scary right now

sorry i have to go now

Lokix Scizor team that aims to lure and kill shit like talonflame and rotom heat so scizor can come in and sweep. Blissey works rll well so does talon, im iffy on the spinners but ik i need two. Tried donphan, willing to try again

hybrid vapor
#

ill look in a bit

rancid pine
#

Tysm!

#

Okay whatever happens im keeping lokix

#

And i prefer bo and balance

hybrid vapor
#

okay so, id say the main issues with this are the somewhat suboptimal moveset choices and somewhat of a lack of synergy between the mons here (tera water tera blast lokix is kinda not good and doesnt hit much, especially if your targets were mons like talon and heattom because those kinda just die to tera fighting axe kick; air slash talonflame is a lot weaker than brave bird, and this can also just be defog so that you don't need to run double hazard removal, which is already suboptimal on its own too here imo)

#

for starters id recommend using a different talonflame set like i mentioned

#

Ok

#

this would work fine; tera ghost lets you remove rocks weakness, spinblock, and beat mons like lucario and maushold in a pinch

rancid pine
#

Thanks

#

This also frees quaguaval and tsareena although i like donphan here

#

Is my blissey fine? Its saved my butt around 3 million times

hybrid vapor
#

the blissey seems really odd to me

#

copycat doesnt serve much of a general purpose i feel and makes it really awkward to fit a rocker

#

i would personally go hippowdon over it so you're safer vs mons like kilowattrel and jugulis because those can end up pivoting around you forever

rancid pine
hybrid vapor
#

hippowdon can annoy peli and shocks pretty well + sets hazards on its own as well

rancid pine
#

Im really good with hippo

hybrid vapor
#

less so peli but more just annoying non water move sets

#

good to hear

rancid pine
#

Like i peaked ndmono with ground

hybrid vapor
#

most people arent really high on tsareena atm since it can end up just being somewhat of a momentum sink against a lot of common mons and doesnt serve much of a purpose compared to stuff like wo chien

rancid pine
#

Dosent sand stream do more harm than good?

hybrid vapor
#

sand stream is fine for the most part here

#

especially if you replace tsareena w smth else here

#

it only really like

#

hurts lokix a bit but otherwise its not the worst thing in the world

rancid pine
hybrid vapor
#

make sure talon is max speed

#

you dont wanna lose speed ties vs opposing ones

rancid pine
hybrid vapor
#

talon's bulk isn't as good to the point where it can afford to stay in on a lot to scout

#
  • scouting w roost can be bad bc you have limited pp

these two are fine
#

imo

rancid pine
#

Twave

#

Slack off

hybrid vapor
#

or a utility set like that yeah

#

stabs twave slack off

#

anything works as long as it helps you beat the mons i mentioned

rancid pine
#

What about fire blast to troll scizor?

#

Nvm i have talonflame

#

Dont need it

hybrid vapor
#

yeah talonflame covers sciz well enough unless its tera fire, but at that point smth else should be good to revenge kill it

rancid pine
hybrid vapor
#

make sure its tera fairy

#

the dark/dragon resist can be useful for getting a twave off against mons like mence and jugs

rancid pine
#

My main reasons for tera water on lokix
Beats gigaton tink
Beats scizor
Dosent risk flame body
Beats donphan

rancid pine
hybrid vapor
#

yeah thinking about it that set sounds cool

rancid pine
#

Also

hybrid vapor
#

was gonna recommend it to be changed but it might work!

rancid pine
#

Im gonna make a bet with dracomenace

#

I get to top 50 he uses my team

#

Bc lokix ❤️

hybrid vapor
#

also i would probably make hippowdon helmet too with tera rock or ghost and stone edge as well so that you bait talon and kilowattrel for sciz/lokix

rancid pine
#

Ok

#

Should i use a grass type?

#

My worst mus rn are

#

Tinkaton

#

Terablast sandy

#

And gastrodon

hybrid vapor
#

tink seems like its gonna have an awful time vs this team

#

though i think decidueye

rancid pine
#

Oh yeah hippo

hybrid vapor
#

is a good fit for a last

rancid pine
#

Yoooooo

hybrid vapor
#

since tera grass sandy looks rlly difficult without a pivot to get lokix in

#

oh yeah

#

decidueye is like

#

pretty good atm

rancid pine
#

Ooh!

#

doesnt have to be exactly this set, you can tweak it to how you want it to be
#

you want knock for sure

#

removing boots from talon/tink is pretty huge

#

er

#

not boots from tink

#

but yeah

rancid pine
#

I have no rocks…

hybrid vapor
#

hippo!

rancid pine
#

Oops

#

Im thinking shackle knock roost turn and covert cloak?

hybrid vapor
#

shackle is only good on sd stuff

#

and you want grass stab

#

i linked a set above

rancid pine
#

Ok

hybrid vapor
#

sciz can be tera fire for opposing talon by the way

rancid pine
#

Ans i have two talon lures lol

hybrid vapor
#

its just an option but yeah

#

team looks fine to me imo

rancid pine
#

Tysm!

#

hug

hybrid vapor
#

mhm!

#

hug

rancid pine
#

🫂

hybrid vapor
foggy swallow
#

i think it would be better if decidueye was defog and talonflame was u turn

#

also if slowbro was ice beam because mence seems annoying

#

and twave doesnt accomplish much imo

#

lokix can be adamant

#

and this terablast set is wierd

#

i think if you want to ohko talonflame just go tera fighting

#

since tera fighting axe kick koes

rancid pine
#

I explained the other reasoning

foggy swallow
#

then you get to run dark stab too

rancid pine
#

I have reasons for tblast

foggy swallow
#

oh

#

is it for like

#

killing hippowdon

#

physdef hippo

rancid pine
#

Ill consider switching the defog and tuen

foggy swallow
#

i think defog talonflame is bad because it loses to all the ground type rockers and spikers

rancid pine
rancid pine
foggy swallow
#

maybe

#

oh by the way scizor should be tera fire

rancid pine
#

Steels good and i already have two talonflame lures

#

Two

foggy swallow
#

i think deci should outspeed ttar

rancid pine
#

Wochien too

#

Im running into a lot of snail

foggy swallow
#

if you outspeed max speed ttar

#

you also outspeed wo chien

#

run 184 speed

rancid pine
#

Thats a lot…

foggy swallow
#

its alright though

rancid pine
#

Dosent that lose a lot of bulk

foggy swallow
#

its definitely worth it

rancid pine
#

Calm?

foggy swallow
#

uh + spdef - attack

rancid pine
rancid pine
foggy swallow
#

cool then

rancid pine
#

Twaves a temporary slowdown at best

#

So

#

Ill use ice beam

#

Im sticking with talon as fog and deci as pivot but im down to change

#

I hope i explained tera blast

#

And jolly for rotom and bc adamant isnt that needed

foggy swallow
rancid pine
#

Ok

hybrid vapor
#

i agree with qobs changes, i think the sets i added were a bit middling so they can help you optimize the team further

rancid pine
#

Ok

#

Changed 🙂

foggy swallow
#

🙂

rancid pine
#

hug

#

This team is great

#

I just somehow beat psyspam

#

Without slowbro bc fuck energy ball armarouge

foggy swallow
#

cool

#

have fun

rancid pine
#

The evs

#

Deci cant live hits and ive been able to deal with max speed ttar

#

Or its jolly or tera flying and i die anyways

#

Also i wish so bad i could run jolly scizor but i need adamant

hybrid vapor
#

what hits in particular are you struggling to take

rancid pine
#

I can’t specifically remember
Physical hits in general

#

Oh yeah lokix against greninja is a losing game of cat and mouse

hybrid vapor
#

you should usually be able to take hits well as long as they're resisted / not from very strong pokemon like tauros shocks and similar mons

#

unless shocks teras but thats better for you anyways

rancid pine
#

186 physdef hell nah

hybrid vapor
#

tauros does nothing to decid

#

water i mean

#

it has to waste tera to win that 1v1

rancid pine
#

Whats a good speed mark to outspeed bulky mons?

#

Like i cant see any above deci

hybrid vapor
#

decid generally either outspeeds the bulkier mons (slowbro, quag, hippo, donphan, alom) or it cant invest enough (or needs max) to outspeed others (scream tail, cyc)

rancid pine
#

So im thinkibg like 8

hybrid vapor
#

the speed is just for ttar but honestly id just run leaf blade at that point because im pretty sure storm does less in sand

hybrid vapor
#

yea that mu looks fine

rancid pine
#

So what evs

hybrid vapor
#

i would probs just run a bit of speed creep if the bulk isnt working out (like 8 speed) and rest in spdef/physdef to your liking (preferably spdef for shocks)

hybrid vapor
#

sure, i dont have any calcs in mind for specific mons but i think thats fine

rancid pine
#

Would it be a waste to run 252 defense but a plus spdef nature

hybrid vapor
#

yea id much rather just run calm with mixed def and not full physdef

rancid pine

#

Shit

#

Im sorry guys

hybrid vapor
#

LOL its okay

#

most are asleep anyways

rancid pine
#

Good mixed def set thats mathematically superior

hybrid vapor
#

team looks fine imo

#

though i would probs make hippo physdef for pawmot

#

hm actually. nvm

rancid pine
#

Now how do i beat greninja

hybrid vapor
#

non grass type wo chien / non steel type tink teams can struggle a bit into wo chien, you would have to make talon fog and go wo chien > decid if you wanna have some counterplay

#

otherwise it just comes to pivoting and giving it less and less chances to come in w pressure

foggy swallow
#

deci isnt really meant to

#

take physical hits well

hybrid vapor
#

i would prefer a spdef spread myself but idt much changes vs the special attackers you beat anyways besides worse rolls vs stuff like shocks and cyc, etc

rancid pine
#

Id say wochien sounds tempting but
U turn talon is insanely good
Wochien dosent have recovery, especially considering i have hippo sand digging my own bulk

hybrid vapor
#

it has rest

#

which is a great set

#

(resttalk)

rancid pine
#

Wait

#

Huh

#

Ok

#

Sick

#

Do i need to ditch u turn on talon?

#

Whats a good wochien?

hybrid vapor
#

gimme a few mins

rancid pine
#

Also i struggle vs slowbro
And what nature do i give scizor

#

Sorry

#

Im asking too much

#

knock is basically necessary on wo chien

rancid pine
#

Wbout specs gren ice beam

#

Why not ruination knock?

hybrid vapor
#

you need foul play to reliably beat physical setup sweepers (gyara hax etc)

hybrid vapor
#

yes

rancid pine
#

Whew

#

I just think ruination would be good

rancid pine
hybrid vapor
#

i dont know but if its prot it presumably 2hkoes i think

rancid pine
#

Id say actually calc life orb if i choicelock gren its good

#

Lorb timid

hybrid vapor
#

also like, theres a lot of random physical setup sweepers on ladder like maus and dd mence that foul play chien will save your life vs

rancid pine

ill calc in a bit

#

Aaaaaaaa

#

Thats… not worth it

#

Can you verify this

#

Whole team

#

The talon

hybrid vapor
#

ok sorry ive just been multitasking but ill get to it soon!!

rancid pine
#

You good! Tysm for taking time out of your day to help me 😊

hybrid vapor
#

also i think ada sciz is fine

rancid pine
#

Why not hippo

#

Oh wait

#

But gastros muuuuuuuch less bulky

#

Physdef hippo has 100 more

I have to go sleep, tomorrow? Thanks so much again hug

#

What are some reliable, solid counters for Wo-Chien?
I feel like it's impossible to wear it down without u-turn

foggy swallow
#

cyclizar does pretty well into it

#

also like

#

your own wo chien.

#

lol

#

slither wing with morning sun checks it well

#

just applying alot of offensive pressure in general

scarlet yew
#

Wo-Chien vs Wo-Chien seems like an insufferable mu

foggy swallow
#

nop

#

not really

#

just play better

#

than your opponent

strange charm
#

Would Greninja be able to handle Wo-chien with u-turn?

foggy swallow
#

eh

#

it cant come in without being knocked

#

and it doesnt like losing boots or being chipped

strange charm
#

You mentioned that Cyclizar can be effective against Wo-Chien
I assume with knock off , then u-turn

foggy swallow
#

yeah

#

and it doesnt mind losing av so much

#

in most matchups

#

also has regenerator

strange charm
#

Actually, are you able to rate teams atm?

foggy swallow
#

yeah if you want

strange charm
#

Here's my team so far: https://pokepast.es/5856ba776366eec5
My win rate is pretty inconsistent atm
I think maybe the problem is that I don't have a good team against Fighting Types, Wo-Chien and maybe Salamence (Tera-Water)
I was thinking Greninja doesn't provide that much to the team

strange charm
#

I heard that Wo-Chien or Brambleghast can be a good core teammate with Gastrodon and Talonflame

foggy swallow
#

i like this alot actually

#

i think you can be tera ice sandy shocks because you struggle with opposing decidueye a bit

#

swap tbolt for terablast

#

and i think you should be tera fire scizor

#

and probably close combat over u turn

#

or over trailblaze

#

i think every scizor needs cc though

strange charm
#

What would Scizor need cc for?

lean monolith
#

mirror matchups

#

Tink

#

mons that want to Tera steel to resist bp

strange charm
#

I thought the only mon that wants to tera steel is Salamence
Who can beat Scizor with Flamethrower

lean monolith
#

sciz should always be tera fire on sd sets

#

imo

strange charm
#

What's tera fire for?
I was thinking that Talonflame might give it a problem with Will-O-Wisp, but can't I have Gastrodon, Sandy Shocks or even Cyclizar take it?

lean monolith
#

Tera fire is to be immune to flame body/wisp

#

and tflame can’t check you at all really

#

because its defense is really carried by flame body

strange charm
#

Ok
Should I have Scizor replace Trailblaze with Close Combat
I think I still should have u-turn, at least with Wo-Chien,
I can't solely rely on Cyclizar, when I just realised that most of my teammates are actually hampered by Wo-Chien

lean monolith
#

cc over u-turn

#

trailblaze can still hit bro

strange charm
#

I think i still need u-turn for Wo-chien
Plus, greninja has already grass coverage in grass knot

rancid pine
#

Trailblaze functions way differently its much more than grass coverage

strange charm
#

Then again, since Scizor is a late-game cleaner, it might not need u-turn...

rancid pine
#

It lets you sweep waaaaaaay easier

strange charm
#

Like against Tera-Water Salamence, Gastrodon, Quagsire, Sandy Shocks

#

Got it

rancid pine
#

Also just speed being nice

foggy swallow
#

the speed boost is good for magnezone n such

#

tauros aqua

rancid pine
#

Outspeeding stuff or other priority is amazing

strange charm
#

Yeah that makes more sense

foggy swallow
#

i like the gastrodon one more

#

but what in gods name is tera ice

strange charm
#

@rancid pine
I was wondering whether I should replace Greninja with something that can deal well against fighting types

#

That seems to be the issue I am currently facing, I think

foggy swallow
#

what fighters are you struggling with

rancid pine
#

Im not an official rmt, i just wanted to chime in about scizor

rancid pine
#

Im thinking steel

foggy swallow
#

tera ghost is best methinks

rancid pine
#

Ok

#

Bet accepted

strange charm
# foggy swallow what fighters are you struggling with

Well..
I think it's mons that in theory that Gastrodon would do ok against but in practice only decently
Like Quaquaval etc.
Plus, I'm relying on one mon to do everything, in conjunction with setting up spikes
Then there are others like Tera Water Salamence and Wo-Chien
That being said, what do you think is the biggest threat to team

rancid pine
#

Thank you two so much

#

Blob and azu

foggy swallow
#

oh quaquaval i see

#

normally i run 60 defense o my gastrodons and i forgot why

strange charm
#

And maybe Pawmot (in thoery, i haven't actually faced one yet)

foggy swallow
#

that does seem like a toiugh mu

#

but with gastrodon you can stop them from speed boosting right

#

so you can not let them speed boost then go into something that can force it out like talonflame

#

just make sure to preserve your gastrodon into duck mu's

strange charm
#

I feel like I'm relying on Gastrodon too much to handle the duck
Plus, Can't the duck use close combat to take it out
There also might be other mons too, like Pawmot, Slither Wing

foggy swallow
#

slither should be fine with tera ghosts + talon

strange charm
#

What if I could use an actual ghost mon for my team
I don't want it to rely on Tera too much

foggy swallow
#

its just gengar or mmq

#

and they have really poor defensive utility

#

actually

#

deci helps with the uh

#

pawmot and quaq problems

strange charm
#

Sorry, what's mmq?

foggy swallow
#

mimikyu

#

i think if you swapped cyclizar for a decidueye it could be quite good

strange charm
#

What about Brambleghast?
It might do better with Fighting Types thanks to Strength Sap, immune to Hurricane

Brambleghast @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Wind Rider
Tera Type: Ghost

  • Strength Sap
  • Shadow Sneak
  • Power Whip
    I didn't run spikes because Gasto had it
foggy swallow
#

bramble is sorta likde decidueye but worse

strange charm
#

What would be a good set for Decidueye?

foggy swallow
#

Decidueye @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Long Reach
Tera Type: Poison
EVs: 248 HP / 76 SpD / 184 Spe
Careful Nature

  • Leaf Blade
  • Knock Off
  • Defog
  • Roost
#

this is what i have been runnign

strange charm
#

Should I replace U-turn with defog
Thing is that I have Gastrodon and shocks setting up hazards, and defog may be counterproductive

foggy swallow
#

uh i think its still fine

#

just only use defog when you need to

#

and youll be fine

#

you can use cyclizar to spinblock your opponent sometimes

#

which is nice

rancid pine
#

Why am i so bad

#

Im tanking ladder rn 😭

strange charm
#

Just one more question
If I was willing to use Tera ghost on Gastrodon, is there a better mon I can use on my team to replace with ?

twilit harbor
#

Slowbro

#

For quaq/rain check

#

Tbh gastrodon is kinda crap at being a rain check and sucks at being a quaq check and sucks at being special wall

#

Barra claps it with cc

#

Quaq claps it with +2 ice spinner

#

And gengar/iron jugulis just flinch/spdef drop

rancid pine
#

I run both!

#

@foggy swallow

#

#

Im sorry

#

Bruh

twilit harbor

Wait

#

Nvm

#

I didn’t realize who you pinged

rancid pine
rancid pine
#

Im thinking av ttar, it blanket checks a lot, gets foul play and edgequake, only problem is no recovery
Also im probs gonna drop ice beam on slowbro for thunderbolt

#

Nvm it dosent get bolt

#

Grass knot?

#

Twave?

#

Foul play?

foggy swallow
#

Hey guys
Sorry for responding late, I had to go to sleep
You guys have given me a lot of thought with fighting resists, Slowbro vs Gastrodon, the great Wo-Chien etc.
Thanks @foggy swallow @rancid pine @twilit harbor for your help

rancid pine
#

Np!

strange charm
#

Wo-Chien can be a good special wall/mix wall right?
I think problem with Gastrodon is that it doesn't resist special moves like Hurricane, Draco Meteor etc.

it is a fine mixed wall yeah

make heattom a talon imo, ground immune that isnt cucked by random mold breaker + generally more reliable pivot than heattom here. with that i would def go av cyc > gengar since it forces in similar mons to gengar and you can run uturn safely on talon; also provides a buffer against stuff like shocks if tera grass and gengar

#

I think the solution for this team is adding defensive pokemon, but I don't know which ones

rancid pine
scarlet yew
#

You have a Grimmsnarl

#

Grimmsnarls are rare outside of HO

#

You could probably drop it for a defensive mon and be happy

queen relic
#

okey

#

and change slowbro for gastrodon maybe?

#

for rain teams

scarlet yew
#

And you have Trick Room on your Slowbro

#

When your only slow mon is Arma

scarlet yew
queen relic
#

yeah, but sandy sucks...

scarlet yew
#

No

#

Sandy is the fucking bomb

scarlet yew
#

So you could Future Sight then revenge kill

#

At least I hope Future Sight works on switch out

scarlet yew
#

And Trick Room with Slack Off

#

No idea how well Swords Dance Lokix works but I don't think he'd work in a team like this anyway

#

So go Leech Life ig

#

And I don't really think you need Specs on Sandy

#

He hits hard enough normally

#

Just go for Boots you should be more worried about not losing him

scarlet yew
#

Don't do that please

#

Honestly overall my best advice for you is to just follow the sample sets

#

You can start experimenting when you've actually got a feel of the game

#

And Trick Room rarely works outside of Doubles

strange charm
#

I was wondering whether SV UU has good special walls (outside of Gasto)

scarlet yew
#

Tyrannitar

#

Scream Tail maybe?

This is my first team for UU in a while

#

I've played a few games and although I like parts of it I feel like i'm missing something

#

Could I ask for what the main flaws are and how I could improve the team

foggy swallow
#

grimmsnarl is only decent on hyper offense teams

#

and even there, there are better screens setters

#

let me know what you were trying to build around

#

and maybe i can help you then

#

right now im not sure what direction you want it to go in

foggy swallow
#

i think it would be much better if you replaced it with scizor

#

just use the smogon set called "swords dance"

#

i dont like your cyclizar set. i think you should be running something like this:

Cyclizar @ Assault Vest
Ability: Regenerator
Tera Type: Ghost
EVs: 224 HP / 104 SpA / 180 Spe
Hasty Nature

  • Knock Off
  • Draco Meteor
  • Rapid Spin
  • U-turn
#

the sandy shocks set is fine

#

just run heavy duty boots over soft sand

#

you might want to consider running terablast ice instead of thunderbolt aswell

#

because it seems like you may face troubles with opposing decidueye

#

i think the talonflame set is all good

#

we can keep the specs decidueye, i think its a pretty good set actually

#

Decidueye @ Choice Specs
Ability: Overgrow
Tera Type: Fairy
EVs: 72 HP / 252 SpA / 184 Spe
Modest Nature

  • Shadow Ball
  • Leaf Storm
  • Giga Drain
  • U-turn
#

just swap the set out for this one

#

and in the last slot i think you should run alomomola instead of the drednaw

#

to give yourself a more solid core

#

TLDR:
change the cyclizar set to the one i suggested
bisharp --> scizor
give sandy shocks heavy duty boots
keep talonflame as is
change the decidueye to the set i suggested
drednaw --> alomomola (use the smogon set for this aswell)

queen relic
foggy swallow
#

well it can work

#

just these are not the pokemon you want on that styke of team

queen relic
#

ok

#

what should I use then?

foggy swallow
#

well some good picks are booster energy iron jugulis quaquaval oricorio pompom mimikyu nasty plot gengar maushold scizor dd mence dd tyranitar shift gear toxtricity

#

booster energy sandy shocks

#

polteagiest

queen relic
#

Mmh ok

#

I'll try then

#

Thanks!

plucky raptor
plucky raptor
#

I played a bit more with the changes and

#

Yeah U-turn on the decidueye has been a game changer in how useful it is

#

Scizor is ight more consistent than Bisharp But I do miss the adrenaline of random nightslash crit come backs

#

Alomomola really goes : no

#

Although I don't really like tera blast on Shocks I think I'm gonna return to just stab

#

Thanks

twilit harbor
#

why don’t you like Tera blast?

#

It is stab

plucky raptor
#

I don't really like turning ice type

#

I would use spikes instead tbh, tbolt just kindve isn’t ever really needed

#

dude hes running rocks

twilit harbor
#

why not both

foggy swallow
#

you wouldnt get the opportunities to set both up methinks

ping me when rate

scarlet yew
#

But you've got a Scream Tail and a bulky Slither Wing

#

If you wanna go hyper offense then just go full offense

#

Bulky mons are either just slot fillers or they're not gonna give you great results

#

If you're not going hyper offense then drop Grimmsnarl

#

He's only used for that

fickle flax
#

Yeah I dropped grimm

#

Swapped out for plot Gengar but idk

pearl ravine
#

fickle flax
#

lean monolith

proven parrotBOT
#

New UU RMT @wispy peak, @trim snow, @low kernel, @lean monolith, @hybrid vapor, @cursive vale, @foggy swallow. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.

fickle flax
#

why so

lean monolith
#

I’m trying to get this team in a more ho direction

fickle flax
#

I took off Grimm

lean monolith
#

ok scratch what I said

hybrid vapor
#

for clarification pivot slither is kinda ungood on ho, you'd much rather use a diff slither set like bulk up booster energy flame charge or an entirely diff mon

fickle flax
#

yeah

#

I kinda dipped off HO

lean monolith
#

specs cyclizar is bad regardless

hybrid vapor
#

ill let mr Romanji take care of the rest

lean monolith
#

you want boots or av here

fickle flax
#

Team is kinda built around the thing
Also plus if I do that then I lack a good special breaker

#

And if I go specs gengar the team just dies to kilowattrel

foggy swallow
#

if you wanna run offensive cyclizar run life orb

#

with draco overheat power whip u turn

fickle flax
#

It can break if needed but there’s preferred options the team focuses on

scarlet yew
#

Right

lean monolith
#

as much as I hate gastro it seems better over shocks here

fickle flax
#

Elaborate

foggy swallow
#

i think scizor offensive cyclizar is a good core

#

just a different sciz set

#

and s different supporting cast

scarlet yew
#

I like Gastro 😔

lean monolith
#

better defense + easier to set spikes with to help break with the offense guys

#
  • water immune
hybrid vapor
#

also, i know you're probably set on this, but specs cyc would probably be much easier replaced with a similar fast pivot like noiv or gren; both are similar in what they bait in and have much better offensive synergy / defensive utility etc than choiced cyc (which ultimately defeats the purpose of cyc in general)

#

if you choose to revise the team you could probably use one of those or make cyc standard utility imo

lean monolith
#

you also need a ground immune

hybrid vapor
#

@fickle flax if you have anything to say about the suggestions so far let us know

lean monolith
#

I like mence here over tflame

#

actually scratch that

#

don’t want to stack too much

scarlet yew
hybrid vapor
#

thanks

foggy swallow
#

do you want me to rate it

#

ive built with offensive cyclizar before

lean monolith
#

tink would be the rocker

twilit harbor
foggy swallow
#

hybrid vapor
#
