Ok
mb phone died lemme catch up rq
as for you i like alot of the mons right now just the sets are a bit wonk
y
the scizor should be the boots u turn bp cc sd set
scream should be protect over twave
and tera ground
idk neither of those bait in tinkaton and Scizor
Very funny mons to bait in
now with the sandy shocks. the booster energy set only is ever run on hyper offense
gren baits in tink pretty well
its not very good elsewhere and here i think it should be swapped for gastrodon like romanji said
It does?
yes
Aight
Doesn’t Gren just spam Hpump on it
you risk taking a knock which is pretty bad for you in any case
you dont wanna lose to opposing scizoe
and right now thats a thing you do
you could run rotom heat or talonflame over slither wing
talonflame would be good methinks
dont run defog thoug defog talon is sorta bad
in the last slot av donphan or something
so uh to summarise
what i think you should do is:
life orb cyclizar power whip overheat draco meteor u turn, run max special attack 4 attack
change the scizor set to the u turn sd cc bp one
scream should be tera ground and protect over twave
sandy shocks -> gastrodon
slither wing -> taunt talonflame
gengar -> av donphan
outside of Gastro and Quag (two things which Draco hits fine) what does pwhip do
draco does a good buttload of 0 to gastro btw
pwip hits the bulky grounds
hippo gastro
and it does decent damage to like scream tail
https://pokepast.es/144bdaadf1a9061f I just slapped random shit there. I want to keep greninja.
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.
Megas don't exist anymore and most mons aren't in the game.
Oh yeah, this was for natdex though
I reworked it dw
I feel like you’re trying to build around too much and not supporting each threat well
so chose something to build around and I’d be happy to rate
I don't really know. I don't play UU to often. There's really nothing to guide me. I'm not as natural on selecting members based on needs than others. I understand it's important but I'm not a natural at it.
Especially with the fact I'm still relatively new to competitive and I'm still at a young age not being as experienced as most others.
Dude
You don't select members based on what you need
Because you don't have a fucking team yet
You pick what you actually want to build around first
Just pick some dude
See what kills them and what else they don't have
Then build the team to accentuate their strengths and eliminate their weaknesses
I have a question
Are UU raters able to rate teams at the beginning of the month (when tier shifts happen)?
I'm asking because I have a team that I want to check
However, I'm not sure whether it would be relevant after the tier shifts
happy to look at whatever team although i'm not an official rater
Thanks @slender peak
Give me a few minutes, and I will show you what I cooked
i'd suggest 2 things to help guide you first
-
you should just use more mons that resist common types (so you need a more sturdy fighting resist and a ground resist) --> so something like intimidate specially offensive salamence over haxorus here can help
-
you should try to figure out the style you want before completing your team, your team has bulky offense mons (like tink) but also hyper offense mons (like dd haxorus) that don't mesh well together, so this reinforces the point about using salamence over haxorus (salamence is a better bulky offense mon than haxorus)
another note: since you dont have any more set up sweepers really, i'd use life orb natural cure rest pawmot (rest over revival) since it gives you very big breaking potential) and close combat over ice punch so you can threaten things like wochien much better
you're welcome krock! sure you can ping me again later if you want
@slender peak
This is the team I have cooked: https://pokepast.es/b68f85b5eb2d5f3b
I have also considered the possible mons that may go to SV UU: Iron Treads, Sylveon, Gardevoir, Chesnaught and maybe Azumarill
gardevoir is already common in uu as well as sylveon
idk if they are uu by usage but you will do well to prep for them
yeah the first thing i see is that the team seems very good and fairly standard but with very small quirks on sets
Sorry to interrupt
oh youre fine
I should mention that with Decidueye and Sylveon, I didn't really know what I was picking
I know I needed a defogger or a hazard remover
But I didn't really know on what I can use for a special attacker
I think i chose sylveon because i was concerned about Wo-chien and Gren
yeah those are two good reasons to use sylveon imo
You mentioned that I should make some quirks on the sets?
no i was saying your team looks good but with some minor unusual stuff (idk if they are good or bad, and tbh on balance unusual things are good)
but i am referring to fire blast mence
when flame is more common bc it ohkos scizor anyways
spdef on sylveon
when most just max def
boots on tar
when lefties is more common
Regarding the spdef on Sylveon
I borrowed it from the smogon set
Said that it needs 48 spdef to counter Tera Flying Hydregion Hurricane
Or is that counter outdated?
oh
i had no idea that was a thing
sure that makes sense then
although i think tar covers most jugulis well anyways
This is the site I was referring to: https://www.smogon.com/dex/sv/pokemon/sylveon/uu/
it makes sense to me
i am a tad worried about tar here
it can get openings on decid and sort of mence although you have hydro
the bigger issue is you lack arock resist
which is in part because you lack a ground/volt immune
you might get voltturned on especially with your slowbro
i'd at least consider running tera ground on a few mons like tar if not actually getting a ground type
@slender peak I was thinking for some mons that may handle voltsiwtch and and Ttar: Quagsire instead of Slowbro and Sandy Shocks instead of Sylveon
Former I gave up because of increasing grass moves and inability to handle rain physical offense and maybe fighting types
Latter because it can't outspeed mons like Greninja and Gengar (latter can't OHKO it, but it can revenge kill it)
okay i do like the quag thing
to your point about rain and grass moves and fighting types
for grass moves i think thats relatively not an issue since slowbro doesnt beat any grass mon anyways except like wochien that run foul play/ knock off but quag beats that wochien set too
I thought Slowbro could tank rain
I meant that Quagsire can't tank rain without Water Absorb
for your point about physical rain, yes its true you become weaker to that but 1) a lot of rain sweepers are special anyways and will kabob you like kilowat, but you still have a mence that takes physical rain mons. i'd even perhaps use a bulkier mence set, you could go down to only outspeed slitherwing so you have more bulk
being slower to quaq isnt great but that brings me toanother point, i'd consider running phys def decidueye here, its not common yet but i think it will become common, spdef doesnt help that much but phys def lets you beat quaq donphan and knock off cyclemuch more easily
regardng your point about fighting types, yeah youre weaker to them with quag but you still have mence and sylveon plus you can tera poison or ghost your quag if you want
For the Salamence (bulky) set, what about:
EVs: 248 HP / 140 SpA / 12 SpD / 108 Spe [Outspeeds Adamant Slither Wing, and Jolly Bisharp. Lives 2 TBolts from Sandy Shocks]
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
And for Decidueye, how much defense bulk would it need?
love the mence spread
decidueye, i think you can just completely swap spdef into def
All of Spdef to Def, you mean?
yes
How do you guys come up with these spreads
I found it from: https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/sv-uu-cores.3712249/page-2
:sv/slowbro::sv/tyranitar::sv/salamence:
This is a defensive/balance core that does well against 90% of the tier. Slowbro and SpDef Tyranitar are 2 extremely fat Pokemon, and compliment each other well. Tyranitar taking care of Dark, and Ghost types, as well as Kilowattrel that switch in on...
@slender peak
You mentioned that Slowbro can't do much to Grass Types
What about Ice Beam and Future Sight, at least it can put pressure on them
Unless Quagsire's Toxic can be more determential to them.
well there's basically 3 grass types right now in uu
wochien is super relevant and still owns you with giga/doesnt take much from ice beam
yes slowbro actually does well vs the rest talk foul play knock off variant
but quags does well vs it too
the other grass type i sort of combine into one, decid/bramble (but decid way more common these days)
What about if (and a big one) if Chesnaught or even Breloom drops from OU to UU?
SHould I handle it with Salamence, Decidueye, Sylveon etc?
decid takes ice beam really well esp as, as i said before, spdef is way more common, and slowbro is always terrified of instant death fromleaf storm so it cant stay in at all. i guess slowbro ice beam does fairly well into bramble but unfortunately bramble isnt that common anyways
the last grass is really brute bonnet but again it doesnt take much from synthesis, yes slowbro is probably better into it than quag, but both are very bad and as you mentioned brute probably rather take ice beam than a toxic
i guess im forgetting about rotom grass but i dont think slowbro is notably better into it than quags
yeah i think you have other mons to deal with a potential chest/loom
Yeah ok
The other point I was concerened is Salamence, but Sylveon can help Quag take down the brute
feel free to keep posting new versions of the team or whatever but i might reply less quickly, need to work
@slender peak
This is my updated team (from the new reccomendations): https://pokepast.es/3099006ea96f9b4d
Just two question, should I have Tera Blast on Sylveon for coverage (e.g Water to handle Quaquaval)
And is defog support okay since I have spikes and stealth rock support
love it!! although i'd use your mence spread you posted earlier
Lol i forgot to put it earlier
id run like steel on sylveon, thats standard
i might swap your quag and scizor items btw
lefties for scizor
hdb for quag
scizor just really likes lefties to set up on talon's brave bird much more easily
assuming you tera fire ofc
Is defog support ok for the team (since i have spikes and stealth rock)
yeah ideally you want spin but its fine you just play longer games
its like by itself defog is not going to put you at a disadvantage
at worst it just resets things
I see
Thanks @slender peak
Hopefully the tier shifts will work in our favour
I still don't know how everyone can easily adapt to any tier shift
thanks pif
team 1 i might use a 4 attack infernape set i feel like thats more effective if you dont have pursuit support for latias, also idt metronome mamo helps much here
team 2 and 3 i think the biggest issue is using double scarf which just makes the team hard to play and unable to break fat stuff, maybe i'd add sr krook over one of the scarfers (since you also lack sr which is very helpful)
welcome to smogon discord~~
thanks surprised mesprit
replace hydregion for krook?
and what's Sr?
sr stands for stealth rocks
basically because switching is such an important part of 6v6, most teams consider SR as necessary
it also makes sure you dont have to worry much about things like uturn spammers and focus sash
i think replacing hydreigon for krook makes sense
i like tenta here
im thinking maybe run enough speed for jolly krook if you dont already
esp because you have hp fire scizor for opposing scizor already so you dont need that much def on tent
So everything is okay?
it might be better for you to use the team and then ask to fix any specific issues that crop up
but i would say the team is at least okay
thanks pif (again)
I am glad you are no longer surprised
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.
i sort of like tera ice on this weavile
electric works but i think mainly with sd tera blast
my instinct is to make salamence bulkier and modest for better scizor mu but idk if you can afford it being relatively quaq weak
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.
Not sure what to do for the 6th slot
oh uh
we only rate full teams sorry
this is meant for complete teams
Oh
yeah thanks romanji goat
Alright I'll try to think of something and get back
Just wondering
Does max hp max atk Chestnaught count as a wall already or should I fit another one in
uh
what are you trying to wall with it
i think right now theteam lacks a defensive core
so no harm in doing that though
thanks mesprit
Yes thank you mesprit
i like it lots of good mons
between tar and tink i think you have enough specialbulk somaybe boots on cycle for bette rtspikes match up
Potentially yeah
Band?
twave doesnt seem that necessary with a lot of fast mons already
hard to pickbetween band and dd
both are nice sets
Yea
nope pif i think sandy shocks owns even more without av cyclizar
Yeah good point we have to fix the sandy weakness if we use boots
guys rate my team

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.
the slurs i meant was the slurs that i can reclaim
😐
oh my god just rate it please
sure
orthworm sucks im afraid
the others steel types (even forretress imo) are just better than it
ok what now
atleast forre has the niche of tspikes + spin
isnt that like D tier 
specs kilowattrel is also a bad set especially not on rain teams
theres a random polteagiest
can you explain what direction the team was meant to be going in
so i can help you make something better
just a UU team
that doesnt help me
yeah uhm
😐
what
Electric Orthworm is pretty funny but this is still a messy team
Judging by the sets did you want to make a Tea team?
no i just wanted to try UU
Ehh
For me a lot of the UU charm came from team building
So I was too stubborn to just use a sample
Well Tbf if you are JUST starting it’s probably just to use a proven team
And then after 10-20ish games then you can try building as you can have a solid idea of strong Meta threats and ideas from others
That's true
how do you have fun ❓
A lot of the fun comes from experimentation
I'd say
But it is difficult to experiment when you don't know the variables
If you don't wanna go for a sample you could try checking out the VRs and see what to build around
what are vrs
viability rankings
ok
https://pokepast.es/c30ec4758d01f221 what do you think of this ?
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.
First UU team
Very good mons and very decent synergy for a first team
Generally speaking I do think facade is better than thief on cb scizor so you can spam vs talonflame more easily and encore is better than twave on tink so you can set up rocks on hazard control more easily
Slightly more specifically I think maybe the one thing the team is missing is some physical bulk and there’s some space to add. In given you have double ground and very sufficient amount of hazards
I was thinking there’s a slight weakness to scizor and tar here because your talon lacks wisp and can serve as an entry point for tar
Maybeee you could run water tauros over gastro although you become a bit more sandy weak and mence weak, I think if you do that maybe make your sandy tera ice for mence and also spikes over tbolt so you keep spikes
i think cb scizor in general isnt good
Alr Will try your suggestions thx
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.
nice fatness i like fat teams
i think normally they have to run a volt immune or else you get pummeled by volt switch uturn spam so i might consider mega steelix over klefki, which still checks workup pidgeot quite well and np heal togekiss somewhat well
obviously that means you can't run mega slowbro anymore so you could either just make it like a z move (i'll talk about tenta in a second) or just turn it into a chesnaught which still checks terrakion somewhat well (especially with z fighting/grass) and gives you spikes that klefki had and a ground resist which oyu currently lack
tenta i think can run sludge bomb and enough speed for max speed togekiss, maybe over toxic spikes, with maybe black sludge, especially if your other mons are using z move. you still have 2 wish mons to recover you
if you add steelix, then your blissey doesn't necessary need rocks (or you could make steelix a rest/curse set for an extra sweeper)
i do suggest synchronize on umbreon, inner focus wont let you beat togekiss anyways and there arent that many other flinches, synchronize lets you bounce back toxics from things like hippo
anyways i do enjoy fat teams, if you want to keep talking about your team, feel free to ping
oh i'd also run knock over scald or toxic on alo, knock is just very useful on stall to slowly chip the opp
maybe toxic here, esp if you dont use chest, because you need scald for krook as you lack ground resist (but i would use chest probs)
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.
I try to make rain uu for gen 7 but not sure what to add or remove
It's kinda a mess
Up
rains just not really viable in sm uu without drizzle unfortunately
if u did want to play something like this then ur hsarpedo and lanturn arent really doing anything though, you'd want to use scizor to abuse the fire softening, use special toed etc
cover yourself better vs things like amoonguss and primarina too
probably want ur own amoonguss among other things
Prankster rain Dance I thought worked good
it means having to run suboptimal mons/sets, lets hippo just hard in on them, they dont get the momentum and entry etc
Hmm thx what about the sun team did they work good or not
not really manual weather is pretty dodgy in this tier
u can meme around with it but rain both of them arent very good at it
Ohk thx what's kinda team good in gen 7 uu
Ok I will try to make a ho because I can't stall and it gives me depression will be back after making one
https://pokepast.es/07215da4ed93f640 USUM UU anyone?
Try posting a link without any words otherwise it won't ping mods
sorry for the late reply and feel free to tag if you want to talk further
very good mons and decent team already, i think to make it a bit more meta/reliable
-
you should have defog somewhere, i like the rotom set quite a bit though so if you dont want to put defog on it, you can make emp defog and put rocks on nidoq
-
generally speaking, that scizor set works best on hyper offense, which your team isn't. normally you want roost or choice band to be most effective, i'd pick one of those sets here and also make scizor uturn since it makes a voltturn core with rotom h
-
i like it overall, besides these two relatively small/easy changes, i might think bigger picture the team is pretty slow as well (so band scizor for stronger priority might make sense). since you have SR on nidoqueen, i might make krook a pursuit scarf set to make your team faster and stop something like latias from running through you if it has the right coverage for malt/emp
https://pokepast.es/539b37509706f6fd Here's my current UU team.
I generally lead with haxorus as she is a reliable sweeper with earthquake, ground tera and mold breaker. She also counters Tinkaton fantastically.
Trailblaze on mimikyu gives an efficient way to raise speed after setting up with swords dance, while also countering Quagsire and Gastrodon. Same goes for Zoroark with Grass Knot, with the added bonus of weight based damage that counters donphan and sandstorm setters.
Scizor's bullet punch gets rid of focus sash speed demons :)
New UU RMT @wispy peak, @trim snow, @low kernel, @lean monolith, @foggy swallow. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
Update: I replaces Zoroark's shadow ball with flamethrower for coverage, and switched hyper voice with bitter malice
Dude
No point in spreading the last 4 EVs
You need at least 4 EVs in one stat to actually get an increase
You also don't need to waste your time with 0 SpA IVs
We don't have a special Foul Play yet
Other than that Hax doesn't exactly strike me as a nice scarfer
I don't see why you would want Aqua Tail when you've got more reliable mons to deal with ground types
I also think you're just real weak on the special side
y would you just give 1 ev on every stat
ok this team seems like it has a good start for a hyper offense team but obviously needs improvement.
-
Get rid of quag
you need to get the most out of ho team for a better rocks lead like Sandy Shocks. -
Iron Jug > Bisharp
Your team struggles with speed so it can fit on your team, giving you a somewhat better psyterrain and wo-chien matchup. Run focus blast in the last slot for nuking tyranitar
- Gyarados > Hax
I’d put Dragon Dance Gyarados over haxorus since it really doesn’t accomplish much and can be exploited by flying/fairy types easily.
- Other set improvements
Made Scizor bulky Tera fire swords dance to not be exploited by talonflame. It’s also a much better trailblaze user than mimikyu. Speaking of which, I made it life orb over figy and shadow claw over tb.
Lastly, I made zoro choice specs to nuke more targets since agility really doesn’t do anything when it’s already pretty fast.
https://pokepast.es/1b13c9a469b2a7d7 here’s the paste for how it would turn out. Feel free to give any feedback of how it turns out!
||gsc uu|| so it doesn’t ping the other raters.
thanks romanji
Thank you for the constructive criticism 
Also, the reason I put 1 in each EV is because otherwise it won’t let me battle in custom games, idk why and it keeps doing it
Makes it easier to use my teams with friends
New UU RMT @wispy peak, @trim snow, @low kernel, @lean monolith. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
https://pokepast.es/5e9a1b3bf703deca hisui goodra dropped to UU, so i just HAD to try it out! First time building for UU, how did I do? Would like to keep lucario and goodra, please.
New UU RMT @wispy peak, @trim snow, @low kernel, @lean monolith. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
Sandy Shock isn't UU anymore
it's also way too soon to give feedbacks on UU teams
we know nothing about the tier
yet
Oh
Due to the massive recent tier shift, UU rates are on hold for the meta to stabilize!
UU rates are back up!

i'll be the first after the return then

New UU RMT @wispy peak, @trim snow, @low kernel, @lean monolith, @foggy swallow. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
remove cc / wild charge and put e-speed somewhere
I feel like you really really need some hazard control, if you're choosing the path to not play boots Arcanine-H
otherwise you're just gonna come twice on the field and die to hazard
Oh I forgot to put defog on talon
why do I need espeed if im playing scarf harcanine
for faster scarfers and other things that boost their speed
dragon dancers and quaquaval
https://pokepast.es/71d0eca53164ae6c my first UU team, wanted to build around goodra and lucario, but mainly goodra
New UU RMT @wispy peak, @trim snow, @low kernel, @lean monolith, @foggy swallow. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
Wait a minute I forgot treads exists now, could I replace hippo with treads?
umm
i dont think so
you dont really want a third fighting weakness
and a fourth ground weakness
i dont think lucario is very good on balance teams, its best on hyper offense type teams
i think you could swap the lucario for a rapid spin quaquaval
and also swap the cyclizar for nasty plot tornadus therian for some more speed and a potential wincon
i dont think the alomomola is that neccesary either and could be swapped for some sort of fast pivot
to help get goodra in safely
Which pivot would u suggest?
What’s the quaq set too btw, I can’t find it on the strategy dex
Quaquaval @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Moxie
Tera Type: Steel
EVs: 248 HP / 16 Atk / 176 Def / 68 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Rapid Spin
- Aqua Step
- Close Combat
- Roost
heres a duck set
Ty
https://pokepast.es/bd215d1850f42312 this team has been working but it could probably use some improvements
New UU RMT @wispy peak, @trim snow, @low kernel, @lean monolith, @foggy swallow. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
there’s a cool lokix set you can run to take advantage of skeledirge really well
let me get it real quick
Ability: Tinted Lens
Tera Type: Bug
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- First Impression
- U-turn
- Throat Chop
- Taunt```
I’d also not recommend running both rocks and spin on the same set
why not?
you could run rocks arcanine and still be an offensive threat with future sight
you end up being worse at both
arcanine over who
skeledirge
also ditch Tera ice on gapdos
All you need is stabs
thunderous kick can be way better in endgames
I prefer flying but you can run whatever
could you post an arcanine spread?
just max speed max attack
stabs morning sun rocks
wisp over morning sun is an option
intimidate or rock head?
rock head of course
Ability: Rock Head
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Tera Type: Normal
Jolly Nature
- Head Smash
- Flare Blitz
- Extreme Speed
- Stealth Rock```
i lied you really need espeed
https://pokepast.es/d5cbaabe2cc4ed85 this look good?
i could make gapdos banded cuz i have 2 mons with priority
maybe iron head over volt can work but it’s ok
the team is too slow you would want scarf gapdos
ok
even with priority
thanks for the help
anytime

uu hyper offense
New UU RMT @wispy peak, @trim snow, @low kernel, @lean monolith, @foggy swallow. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
not sure whats the best uu screens setter now
To be honest I feel like Screens HO are not the best atm
I feel like regular HO ate better
how does regular ho work?
someone sets up hazards (often kleavor or treads) and you just go to town with a bunch of set up sweepers
thundy is common bc it gives you a volt immune and means you dont have to run treads for it
skele with flame charge is also common because it gives you some bulk
scizor is common bc priority
haxorus is a dd sweeper that beats unaware w/ moldbreaker
the other mons you use,edge and hydreigon, are pretty good too
a few ho run scarf zapdos i see to deter defog and just extra speed
https://pokepast.es/bc08920c9112dc3f
i have this now
you dont really want to be so weak to hazards given lack of hazard control, you could maybe try to fit iron treads over kleavor or get a fast taunt user to be your sr setter

first run at a 2v2 team basically in 10 years using concepts i like rather than good concepts, really looking for any upgrades but i wanna keep a support thundurus and contrary assault vest enamorus (oops realize wrong chat)
New UU RMT @wispy peak, @trim snow, @low kernel, @lean monolith, @foggy swallow. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
this isn't UU, you're in the wrong channel
yeah just noticed that
New UU RMT @wispy peak, @trim snow, @low kernel, @lean monolith, @foggy swallow. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
would recommend having a ghost somewhere on here ifyou wanna commit to the webs style (not sure i would boots are fairly common on fast things as are fast flyings), breloom set doenst make a huge amount of sense since its like perpetually walled by ghosts too
alr ty
basculegion could work over quav for that, can also just put like a gengar / zoroak / polteageist on too
i decided to replace breloom with polteageist any other things i should do?
i feel like you could just run roost over iro head on mence tbh
but if there was a good reason you had for running it u defo could keep it still
alr thanks again
hi, I'm new 😄
I recently built a team for doubles with a contrary lurantis, but I feel that it doesn't work
can you guys give me some advice with it??
I'll leave the team here:
I decided to put lurantis an assault vest instead of smth like a life orb cuz I need em to survive as much as possible (its basically the main of the team)
https://pokepast.es/ if you put your team in that link and post it, i think it will ping the raters, but i think you should put it in the doubles channel (there is a dou channel, this one is for singles uu)
New UU RMT @wispy peak, @trim snow, @low kernel, @lean monolith, @foggy swallow. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
would love some feedback on my team, haven't tried it out yet <3
erm
that avalugg set is very

tbh most of these sets aren’t good at all
it has like 3/6 members that are good members that need reworking for the sets
like just start off with tink, cyclizar, and slowking
have tink be the rocker
knock over ice spinner and Draco meteor over dtail on cyclizar
and surf and bold nature on slowking
that’s a solid core
then run something like arcanine as a breaker
something like this https://pokepast.es/b1db1f98f863cb47
feel free to try it out and see how you like it
ohhh alright thank you!

Thoughs first UU team im not very good at team building but gave it a shot
New UU RMT @wispy peak, @trim snow, @low kernel, @lean monolith, @foggy swallow. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
Also arc dosent have wild charge it has double edge now
i’m not great with teambuilding either but i can help with the sets
drop curse for rocks on quag
and volt switch for knock off on treads
dark and ghost are similar offensively so both dark pulse and shadow ball is redundant
you could swap dark pulse for either flamethrower or focus blast
rillaboom is kinda weird and ampharos just isn’t good but i’d leave how to change them to someone better then me
Alr thank you

Damn
cyc doesnt belong on something like this at all imo
scizor would much rahter be an SD set on HO builds too
Yeah i said the same
Gyara is absolute GOAT, it absolutely smashes ground types (and Quaquavel lol), and with Taunt shuts down Quag, and Wisp dirge
i think ur on the right path to have somethng thats like ghost / water / electric resistant etc in that slot to help with a few threat sbut
Yeah sorry. I picked up the team from UU sample teams and modified it as I tested it through. I went from 1000 to 1350 really quickly with it but yeah I recognize it has problems. Im not a newbie, I was like 1750s in gen 8 but recently started playing gen 9
perhaps iron leaves would be a niec fit there
doesnt ahve that ghost resist but has the other resistances
and u can do a like SD trailblaze booster energy set
Yeah
salso provides some nice base speed and stuff
Also esta
We both thought enam was feeling weird but couldnt tell why
Is there anything or are we hallucinating
Lmfao
I sent the version with Polteageist, but I used the team only with Enamorus T which even tho it won some games on itself showed to be really frail
i havent seen that specific sample team before could you link it
So replace the Cyc with Leaves? Thanks. Screens are really amazing, idk why more people arent using it
Hello! This thread serves to be a place for successful UU teams intended to help new players get acclimated to the metagame and different playstyles. The subtle differences in each tier can make UU seem overwhelming, even to seasoned veterans of other tiers. Here, you can post your own team for...
Shame Sandy was banned
i dont see this team unless im being dumb
but enam is good yea
either cm double dance or like cm 2a/3a sorta stuff on screens is neat
cm offensive quickclaw on screens is nasty
It was a double spin bulky offense, but some mons were terrible, like Bramble which just kinda died to everything
and I thought Enam was much better than Sylveon
oh ok its the second post this is not actually asample team if its not in the OP
and its from may which is before all the home drops happened
But I was thinking of switching Enam to Polteageist, since its already screens
Yeah sorry. I thought it was fine since it was approved.
What does SD Scizor run for its item? Life orb?
it wasn't approved if its not in the OP of the post
the rejected samples just werent moved out of the thread
I mean yeah thats not a sample at all
also yea life orb
That doesn't make it illegal to modify and ask for rating tho
So long as you properly modify
Also yeah scizor is LO on SD
yea its just an outdated team from an old meta that doesn't exist anymore is all im saying
so iwouldnt really focus too much on it at all
I guessed since Sandy was banned, but I thought it was good enough to modify. I have good fundamentals about playing, but unless the team is good you cant push very high on the ladder and I dont trust myself to make a solid team
So do i just continue to modify this team or to just give up and pick 1 of the Sample teams?
Would Nasty Plot Jugulus work or is it too many rock/electric resistances?
i wouldnt do that personally
Thanks man, really appreciated of you to take your time to explain something to lowly me. Also, I greatly recommend Gyara+Threads core, against Kleavor leads you Intimidate and then switch to Threads, basically giving you free rocks AND they take damage with Rocky Helmet. Probably wouldnt work in high ladder tho
na that would probably work fine in practice
Also works on H Arcanine leads

Threw together this team the other day, just want opinions
Was considering swapping leftovers for cloak on Zarude to prevent fake out, but not entirely sure
And yes, skill swap IS for the memes (and it works lol)
Wrong channel this is for singles only
Ah, my mistake.
Np
ok I would change the goodra Tera to fairy, the rest is fine (good job creeping for dirge but I’d run 68 just in case)
Cyc is fine
I’d have physdef gastrodon > quag here since it’s much better due to being less passive and double unaware is kinda od
If you’re running ep dirge just run shadow ball over wisp
grass knot over u-turn torn can help you break gastro pre-tera
Quaq should probably be sub sd to set up easier on mola
Should the evs on quaq be the usual 252 attack and 252 speed?
https://pokepast.es/8eabe3ec39c0b6c8 It's a Gen4 UU Team that I don't really got to practice, so I need some thought and changes, the concept is simple, having as much abilities that can prevent a certain type entirely, Idk if it's the best way to do this concept and even if it's going to be strong or not, I just want something that can be used for fun and for surprising opponents of this tier
I also don't know if it's the right channel to post this
Since it's Gen4
Welp
Nah this is the right channrl
I don't think the idea of having alot of immunities for the sake of it is very good

New UU RMT @wispy peak, @trim snow, @low kernel, @lean monolith, @foggy swallow. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
you super lose to breloom
i do not think you need two rapid spinners probably
you also lose to thund t
i think swap the quagsire for gastrodon with float stone
get rid of slowking, although it is a bulky mon its main purpose is momentum and stall doesnt need that really
swap it for calm mind slowbro galar with safety goggles
swap cyclizar for blissey with heal bell aswell
i dont like your ev spreads, if you want me to help fix them ill talk you through it

Bro i love that u use my favorite pokemon chandelure, and it's pretty good 8.4/10
hey guys uu rate are open again drop teams if you want to below
https://pokepast.es/e46ffe03bd5ac61f i like sv uu since many of my favorite pokemon are actually viable, but having a good team is a higher priority that having 100% of it composed up of my favorite pokemon, but i am afraid my judgement is clouded so what could i change about this team to make it better? ive been doing pretty good with it thusfar so it's clear that just picking my favorites wasn't the worst strategy but i do wnat to improve my team

maushold is not very good right now im afraid
neither is mimikyu
having three grass types really isnt ideal and it hurts the teams defensive synergy alot
the hydreigon set also isnt very good
most of them are running sub nasty plot right now
ummm theres a whole lot wrong with this and i think it just needs to be reworked probably

is this any good for natdex
i am going for a passive control and forcing switches and things but kartana is a wallbreaker and can nuke if im in a bad spot
this is for sv uu btw
Its for any uu gen
but not natdex i thought?
there’s a separate channel for non ou natdex formats
sorry if i was just completely wrong
Ohhh its natdex
and i rly jsut want my team to be tated
go to national dex other tiers rates

Here's my Offensive Pivot with Wish Pass Support from Alomomola
https://pokepast.es/223bd7723d21b3f8
I have trouble against set up sweepers and Meowscarada but I think that's just skill issue on my part
The -speed nature and 4 speed IVs on Alomomola is to be 1 point slower thank Conkeldurr
New UU RMT @wispy peak, @trim snow, @low kernel, @lean monolith, @foggy swallow. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
If its a Meowscarada vs Meowscarada lead, who ever wins the speed tie or is scarfed and goes for U-Turn wins
you also have no real fighting type switchins or iron hands checks
specs thund isnt very good, i would make it boots and also swap flash cannon for focus blast and flying terablast for psychic
make meow scarf
i think swap quaq for a gweezing
i would run spdef heatran on this sorta team
What does that help me with?
Oh ok
also a better meow switch in
Does Heatran sometimes run Flame Body or is it just people that forget to change it 'cause I've ran into a few Flame Body Heatrans
I feel like I'm losing a lot of offensive pressure by getting rid of specs and band
nah
But ig Thundy is still gonna 2shot the things it already 2shots
thund is a worse mon with a choice lock
technically it does more damage
but its less threatening
because it cant change moves
now i dont like mamoswine very muchy in this tier tbh
maybe something like np hydreigon would work
you have thund as a volt immune so i think your fine on that front
I lose the ability to ohko lead sandyshocks 😩
the changes i would make are:
quaq -> weezing galar
meow -> scarf
heatran -> spdef
thund -> boots and move changes
mamo -> sub np hydreigon
also maybe change the mola set
to the smogon one
it just has a bit more spdef and makes you less shaky into heatran
also ill give you a gweezing set and a hydreigon set if you need
Mamo is my only form of priority though
prio isnt mandatory
Ye but its good againts Meowscarada, Salamence and Hax
I run ohys def gweezing?
Whats the speed for?
Boots and Levitate?
levitate yes but you can run lefties or helmet if you want
Over boots

any idea when natdex non ou opens
ive been wating to get the team rated for so long
Itll all depending when the non nd ou raters feel like its ready
Staff doesnt open it themselves they just wait for the comphelpers to say they think the meta is stable enough
I would assume probably after the Kartana Suspect

I tried this team out but it wasn’t great so I want to know how it can be improved
your on the right track
i think replace scizor with eject button amoonguss and thund with overqwil
also make treads rocks over ice spinner and basc specs
alternatively to making basc specs
you could put a floatzel in that slot
i which might be better
https://pokepast.es/4ae59acb6d103041
Tried my hand at making a scarf regidrago team. Alomomola + Heatran + Treads + Torn feel solid together, and added Regidrago + Weavile to be breakers/sweepers
New UU RMT @wispy peak, @trim snow, @low kernel, @lean monolith, @foggy swallow. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
the team is alright in my eyes but i'd probably go for more of a dark spam core with specs hoopa > regidrago and slowking > mola to get both hoopa and weavile in safely alongside torn
it also gives you more of a better match up into volcanion
treads should be air baloon and i dont think mola fits the pace of the team
i think washtom could be better
in that slot
otherwise i think its fine
maybe run more spdef on heatran too
that sounds like a cool concept
how much spedef does heatran usually run
does 164 hit anything in specific?
i just do 160 to outspeed adamant scizor
yes
it just speed creeps things that hit 230 speed for adamant scizor
thats the only reason
oh ok cool

Hax sweep team
Using worse thunderous cuz of prankster thunder wave against set up sweepers and ogrepon grass embody aspect
I might invest less into speed with heatran but it’s nice out speeding any out her heatrans
- I’d take make the mola set this
Ability: Regenerator
EVs: 40 HP / 252 Def / 216 SpD
Tera Type: Fairy
Relaxed Nature
- Wish
- Protect
- Mirror Coat
- Flip Turn```
gives you more spdef and can let you knock out unsuspecting special attacks like torn helping for meow to break better with band
thundurus to boots with focus blast over tbolt
tflame is bad. Replace it with offensive heatran
Tera dark in meow for boosted knocks
Bulky treads with rocks and spin over Luna, it doesn’t fit here
Drei can be your scarfer
New UU RMT @wispy peak, @trim snow, @low kernel, @lean monolith, @foggy swallow. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
I'll assume you aren't trying to build hyper-offense with this team
The Meowscarada set you are currently using is more of an HO lead set, which doesn't appear to be what you are going for. I would probably make it either HDB or Choiced, With Knock Off/Flower Trick/ U-turn/ Play Rough being the 4 moves (+ 252 attack/252 speed jolly)
Band Zapdos-Galar isn't that great currently, so I would use scarf instead. If it's not HO, then changing the rotom-set to a more bulky one is probably worth. I haven't used munkidori/kleavor enough to say whether they do fit or not.
If you are trying to build HO, I would probably go with a couple of different mons (lead meowscarada is a solid
HO lead)
https://pokepast.es/32966840c10e8750 hi, this is a rain team im using for very mid success at like 1300-1400 rating, feel like it could be improved a lot, help>
New UU RMT @wispy peak, @trim snow, @low kernel, @lean monolith, @foggy swallow. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
I would run eject button amoonguss and shocks over thundy and meow. This frees up rocks on treads so you can run knock (also ice spinner > iron head for torn coverage). Azu would much rather be bd on rain since I don’t think you benefit from being able to take hits when you can smash everything with +6 jet in rain
I like the eject button among idea
I think thund should be a specs torn
I think you would prefer a floatzel over azumarill
Just swap iron head on treads for knock
what set would u recommend for the eject amoongus?
spdf, spore, giga, sludge bomb, foul play?
o ok
Otherwise
like this? https://pokepast.es/c3d56c6e1e537b50
Idk why you have a kleavor
Also imo your too weak to tornadus
I would swap the kleavor for something that helps in that mu
Iron treads should be air baloon
And munkidoro should be u turn over parting shot for toxic chain
Meow should be spikes probably
Instead of cb
Then you could either go specs munkidori and scarf go gapdos or CB gapdos scarf dori
CB gapdos is super strong and underexplored methinks
Hard disagree
If you are going to run snow acknowledge where you might be weak
Right now you are lacking anti volt switch mons (ground types) outside of the easily chipped thundy and fighting types like liligant and breloom and kinda run you over easily
I recommend minimizing your typing similarities (getting rid of cloyster or sandslash and alo) and trying to add more mons that resist types you hate to fight like a fairy type wish support sylveon or poison type mons that don’t die to breloom or bugs like gengar or okidoki
I can give some more direction with a paste in a sec
something like this
maybe with some more edits but its a track you can follow somewhat
i've got some others using cetitan i can show you as well if you want
i definitely want to keep chesnaught, everything else is negotiable, though i would prefer to keep as many mons as i can since i like having a lot of my favorite mons on a team
also yeah i had been noticing maushold and hydreigon underpreforming, though mimikyu has been doing fine honestly
this makes a lot of sense, thank you!
neat, thanks!
this definitely looks good thank you for the helpful input
oki doki
i reckon you swap meowscarada for weavile
and torterra for iron treads with a air balloon
chesnaught is fine to keep but its set needs to change
run synthesis body press knock off spikes
but i really like my current chesnaught set, it's been working really well for me
whats it beat
uh a lot of things?
it's difficult to kill quickly and leftovers + leech seed + spiky shield means i do a ton of passive damage and get a ton of passive healing
ok but if i need to quickly do a ton of damage i have body press
and i can shut down setup with taunt
it letsin tornadus and things super free
yeah that is in fact its main weakness, but i dont see how the changes you're suggesting would alleviate that
getting spikes or knocking torn off makes some progress
whereas this set always loses to it and does nothing
if they have a torn
and like 50% of teams have a torn
also why weavile? it does less damage than meowscarada and has a worse defenisve typing, is it just about coverage?
its faster and has better offensive typing and swords dance
oh yeah swords dance helps
also why replace torterra with iron treads? i feel like replacing maushold would make more sense, since torterra does sometimes manage to do a lot of damage, whereas maushold is generally useless atm
torterra is just not great
treads give your team hazards and more reliable removal
yeah im adding treads but im replacing maushold instead of torterra
torterra isn't great but it's not bad and it's really fun when it works
torterra is just inconsistent
basically useless before a smash, struggles to find the time to smash, and is still vulnerable after one to basically any scarfer and ice shard
ok yes dying instantly to ice shard has in fact been a major problem
but maushold dies instantly to most things
yeah maushold isnt good either
probably worse
if you really want to run torterra id switch to tera rock
or steel
oh yeah fair
i think ideally
we replace both things
iron treads is there for a stealth rocker and also a rapid spinner
also a volt immune and steel type and with air baloon a sandy shocks check
https://pokepast.es/7a6564aac27e2517 I need some help improving this team
New UU RMT @wispy peak, @trim snow, @low kernel, @lean monolith, @foggy swallow. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
from my testing, I like how it works for the most part - but I am super annoyed by thundurus-t right now
Sandy shocks is really my only switchin to it, and it can't hit it back unless it wants to randomly blow tera and pray to win a speed tie
the easiest replacement would seem to be the weezing slot, but at the same time I'm not sure I can afford to lose the defogger and if I do drop it Salamence becomes a big problem
having elec torn-t like u do should help a lot with that mu
but having other speed than just torn would be useful for that
hmm... I probably could hold the tera on torn for it yea
another thing im considering is swapping hoopa's set to band
band and specs are both great breakers, but I think using band would marginally improve my matchup against hydreigon by giving me access to drain punch and would probably improve the matchup against volt turn by more reliably threatening wishtect alomomola
regardless of what I do though I think SD weavile is also a big issue, especially if it happens to be paired with dd mence
the two of them together can collectively hurt weezing then the other one can power through the team
New UU RMT @wispy peak, @trim snow, @low kernel, @lean monolith, @foggy swallow. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
woah
this looks like a decent team
i think i would make sandy shocks air balloon
probably just lefties heatran but you can keep air baloon on that too if you want
and i would swap the hydreigon for a weavile
im not a very big scarf hydreigon fan rn
band or sd? went for hydrei to go against meow plus better speed control
wait weavile faster nvm
maybe band with low kick for goodra and mamo?
sd
band is good but i think the main appeal of it is beatup
and you dont have that many highattack stat mons to abuse beatup with
keep shard right?

this team seems alright
a few changes i would make though
swap hoopa for a rapid spin quaquaval
make heatran 248 hp 96+ spa 164 spe
make tornadus the smogon av set and tera electric
make dirge tera dragon with 248 hp 16+ def 236 spd and 8 speed
with terablast dragon earth power torch song slack off
make weavile the smogon set for sd
and i would make sandy shocks air baloon because otherwise you lose to opposing shocks and things
thats about everything i think

guess i'll resort to scream tail
speed baby
https://pokepast.es/a1b36add00be02a9
sorry for asking again
but mola got banned so i changed the team a bit
should i replace oger with something else like cha or amogus
New UU RMT @wispy peak, @trim snow, @low kernel, @lean monolith, @foggy swallow. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
i dont understand why these pokemon are being paired together at all
idk tbh
but hey so far it seems to be working
oh wait yeah all of my offensive mons benefit from rain
jirachi is there for quick pivot and heal wish in endgame
oger to sweep with the +1 speed boost
scream tail for wish passing
scizor and hydreigon deal big damage so why not use them
i think
sd scizor is way better than cb
i dont really like scarf hydreigon much
scream tail is bad
yeah i was thinking the same
but what do i replace sd with
what do you want to keep
npsub doesn't fit me well tbh
basically the first four
can i get rid of jirachi pretty please
hmm
maybe
but again i need it for quick switch ins and maybe heal something up
idt you do
oh yes i do need it
many of my previous teams suffer from bad longevity
not rain but i do rely on it quite a bit
oki
half my team is weak to fire
so what do i replace it with
what is the bellibolt for
tornadus check
paras stuff
physical wall guy
hes funny
okay in the last two slots
there needs to be hazard control and a ground type
and also stealth rocks
so i guess that means pelipper meowscarada bellibolt scizor iron treads +1
do i really need a hazard control
my team doesn't struggle with hazards alot
apart from pelipper this loses to spikes
isn't hydreigon immune to spikes
i really would prefer to get rid of that
hmm ok you do you
and what could the last slot be
i think ideally it would look like this
keeps pelipper scizor and the grass type idea
the team looks rather frail don't you think
no?
the old version is for sure frailer
btw i think your pelipper set is inneficient with the evs
its always more efficient to put your nature into your highest stat if possible
Pelipper @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Drizzle
Tera Type: Electric
EVs: 248 HP / 64 SpA / 180 SpD / 16 Spe
Modest Nature
- Surf
- Hurricane
- Roost
- U-turn
this has the exact same stats + 16 extra evs which i put into speed
https://pokepast.es/4a9b114fc1b7663b
yeah i copied it from this
so if you use the version i proposed
run that pelipper ev spread i posted, the 16 speed can go into more spdef or defense or whatever
i dont know why you are running spdef pelipper though?
i have ocd lmao
for bellibolt 248 hp 216+ defense 44 spd with slack off muddy water volt switch toxic
for scizor 120 hp 136 spe 252+ atk with knock off u turn bullet punch
and sd right
yeah
thanks
for treads run the smogon set but replace lefties for air balloon and ice spinner for stealth rock
just grab the smogon scarf meowscarada sprea
d
and i gave you a dogi spread on the paste already
why do you run 136 evs in speed
it's not outspeeding anything
ah alright
finally i have a team to climb ladder
i'll keep the old one to refine it a bit more
thank you
be careful around um
hydreigon
you have alot of mons that pressure it but also bellibolt lets it sub for free
probably use dogi or peli to annoy it ?
i could maybe play around it
anyways great thanks

sorry for the backup of teams that need rates
i will do some tomorrow when i have the time
Are non-raters welcome to provide suggestions? I'm not perfect or anything but I do at least have some simpler improvement ideas for some of the lower ladder teams
you have a rain team but you dont abuse rain very well with your rain team
make azumarill into a floatzel
its just a much better strong water move spammer in rain
make scizor into a iron treads for hazard control and also hazards of your own
i think all rain teams should have a specs tornadus t on them
swap that for hydreigon
swap weavile for a sd overqwil with either air balloon or life orb
its a super threatening rain sweeper once it gets an sd
and make the rotom into a basculegion female proba ly
oh you said you want to keep azumarill, thats fine
just keep the azumarill and make rotom into a floatzel instead
oki doki
first off i think swap quagsire for a slowking to pivot in your meinshao and also provide future sight support for it
make iron treads air balloon and put stealth rock on it instead of ice spinner, air balloon is for sandy shocks clodsire and opposing treads
make rotom a bulky leftovers set
swap slither wing for a boots meowscarada
and swap clodsire for a av tornadus
you could do a tinkaton there maybe but im not the biggest an of tink rn
you could also make sandy shocks stealth rock and plop a scizor
a third option is making shocks into iron treads making quaq swords dance and adding amoonguss last
TYSMM!!! <333

https://pokepast.es/4201368b3acf777a hi i want advice on this team, i peakd at 1400 but the things get really tough after that

imo av Azumarill will do a lot more for you than volcanion will
you need a dragon resist for balance and right now specs hydreigon just presses buttons into your team
that WILL make you weaker to Scizor though
Dropping Gengar for iron hands might help with that, but I'm less certain so wait for a second opinion
azu and hands will also collectively alleviate your massive weavile weakness
Ye i had struggles with hydreigon and specially weavile in the past lol , gonna try those changes thx

I kinda struggle with clodsire a bit

• Amoonguss is really great with with Eject Button on Rain teams cuz it provides free Momentum which is really valuable.
• In the same vibes you could opt for a SR user on your team. Iron Treads, Sandy Shocks and Tinkaton provide this. The first two can also pressure Quagsire.
• I think Psychic is mandatory in the current meta for Thundy-t since it allows it to dent both Clodsire and Amoonguss which are annoying for Rain teams.
• I think you should also replace either Quaquaval or Azumarill for a physical Swift Swimmer. Basculegion isn't that great here and you already has the female version. Floatzel or Barraskewda would fit well. They both are really fast under rain and have access to Flip Turn and can pack some coverage if you really struggle too much vs Clodsire.
Alr thanks, I’m not sure who to replace between quack and azumaril tho cause both have come in clutch. And if I’m swapping out a mon for rocks it should be Basculegion right?
Yep probably
hello i'm very new to competitive pokemon and wanted to make a UU doubles team and wanted some suggestions, mostly the idea came from seeing people use oricorio and volcarona who are 2 of my favorite pokemon, where volcarona uses fiery dance and quiver dance to get copied by oricorio, my reasoning for the rest of the team is murkrow for general support and a double feather dance, i'd give oricorio baton pass, lilligant is there for coverage and other dances. and i put slowbro and quagsire there because they seem to be able to work well together in tandem with surf slowbro and damp quagsire, i'm sure that it's full of flaws but that's the idea behind it, i haven't picked out all of the moves and things like that yet
any tips are welcome, and thank you for your time
(i'm not to well versed in the UU meta and especially the doubles meta so i'm just kind of eyeballing it)
i'm fine with switching a lot of stuff around, i'm sure the slowbro and quagsire don't fit in as well, they are just my 2 favorite pokemons and i wanted to try and fit them in
i'm also a big noivern fan so if there is a way to put him in i'd like that (i don't need to have the perfect meta team, i just want to have a functioning team with pokemon i like
he does learn dragon dance after all
Here is only for regular 6v6 UU
No double UU

Here’s a spin off of a recent pokeaim team, I’m just wondering what y’all think of the changes I’ve made? Namely oricorio

In my games it fits really well
What is that oricorio spread doing?
Gain more mileage out of the special def buffs from Qd
And speed on conk is to outspeed no investment skelidurge
Unfortunately knock doesn’t kill from full but it only takes a little chip
