I cant say much since i dont play UU at all

As I said in UU subforum i think triple axel is lowkey meh on meow, especially on scarf which prefers trick/spikes. You also have bellibolt to mess over torn and most of our dragon can just tera steel, and if you bring the cat on them they will mostly know you have play rough or triple axel

you honestly have way too much speed control and not enough power. Most of these sets can be replaced with more offensive variants.

Replace Scarf drei with scarf meow, helps a lot more vs ho

Make treads lefties, you’re gonna switch in more often and have a dead move slot

Add a quaq > lokix cause it’s really broken in a post skeledirge world

Make wash Tera fairy with wisp and pain split over protect and twave to better handle quaq.

Since you already have wash just use an av torn as a good final mon.

unique wren
#

the team looks like ho
the hydreigon set is really wack tho
you'd be better off using specs or subplot sets
and since it's ho you could replace tornadus with aninetales
torn is more of a balance mon and wouldn't fit the team too well

#

fyi don't use my advice
i haven't played uu for a week

The thing I struggle against the most are sticky web teams, especially ribombee and galvantula

I have cinccino as another threat and hazard removal but I don't think its practical enough to use

brazen veldt
#

this actually seems p good tbh

#

if ur threatened by webs i'd say its not too bad, sciz ingore sthem and you have an outs vs them

#

all i'd do is maybe drop boots turn on sciz

#

for cc + metal coat or LO

#

usually better on these builds as you arent pivoting much in gneeral

team gets 6-0’d by kyurem, awful

looks pretty solid
Make garchomp max speed + tera ghost , the physdef isn’t necessary when even with just max hp you still take hits well.

I’d make the torn boots taunt and slap the av on azu to have a better check to Latios, BB Gren, and GMolt

Knock > iron head, leftovers > booster, and ground > ghost for more utility/longevity

Boots is better for longevity on sciz. Fire isn’t needed cause tflame/molt isn’t as prevelant so just go steel.

pure jasper
#

Thanks fully kyurem is not here

#

Mhm

#

Tera ground utility?

lean monolith
#

ground is just for power

#

Ghost doesn’t work well when you have chomp as a spin blocker

#

and that’s the hazard mon

pure jasper
#

Mhm

#

Now only if we had gholdengo here

fickle sonnet
unique wren
#

Systhesis + avArroKek

#

Jokes aside I think armarouge is the weakpoint of the team
Idk what to replace it with yet but there has to be one eventually
Max atk on treads
Use a bb set for gren
Replace discharge with heat wave to check treads on zapdos
That should be it
However I am not a good player and you should take these as suggestions only

fickle sonnet
#

I changed it to leftovers

#

I was confused too when trying to use it in a match

unique wren
#

OK then you have no spdef pivot now

#

I'd say keep the av
What utility can venu even run tbh

lean monolith
#

why would you use venusaur outside of sun

#

just make it an amoonguss

unique wren
#

Tbf I don't want to interfere with the team too much
But yea amogus will be a better choice

fickle sonnet
#

I was thinking Amoongus, but wouldn't I be lacking a spe def pivot mon?

lean monolith
#

av torn > armor

unique wren
#

Ah
How can I forget about torn

lean monolith
#

CB sciz isn’t the best either

unique wren
#

Then this would lean to balance more
Since there are 3 pivots and 1 utility

lean monolith
#

maybe make it a mola and replace zapdos

unique wren
#

Triple regen concern

lean monolith

Infernape maybe?

unique wren

There should be a mon for speed control right ?
You don't want to be 6-0'd by something like SD chomp

#

made a themed UU team of all monkeys

#

it started originally as a total joke that was very shitty (i dont know how to build on my own entirely yet)

#

but progressively i improved it more and more with some help and this is probably the best it will ever get

#

again its a meme team, obvs not meta but id love to hear some possible feedback on what could work better

versed solar
#

if you really really want to use that just wait for the tier drops in 2 days so you can use that team in ru where it’ll be slightly less unviable

eternal pike
# versed solar if you really really want to use that just wait for the tier drops in 2 days so ...

heres what this team does right in current UU:

ambipom checks garchomp and ohkos it if all three hits land
fire punch ohkos lead scizor or garvantula (generally outspeeds most leads too so)

zarude tanks and powerwhips a lot of bulkier mons for 2-3HKO

infernape gives mostly speed support with revenge kills and covers for stuff like azumarill with tera grass or just grass knot

munkidori counters iron moth substitute and substitute strats in general with psychic noise, as well as toxic chain just being very useful

passimian is very very fast and hits hard

primeape uses its rage fist and bulk up to cover a lot too

versed solar
#

ignoring the fact that none of those mons are good in the first place you have no hazards, no hazard control, no ground immunity, no electric immunity, no dragon resist, no defensive backbone, and 3 mons with life orb

#

if chomp gets a single scale shot off you instantly lose

#

there is just no way to make a team with 6 monkeys good sorry

versed solar
#

not lead

#

also this just isn't true HO lead chomp can run scale shot

#

then go for it

#

Also, I'm not a rater

#

But i can suggest one or another change ig

#

From my knowledge

#

this team looks like it can't decide between offensive and defensive. If you want to use minior, i'd suggest offensive

#

I can build some offensive cores with minior if you don't know exactly how to

#

But reply when you're back because i don't like just building something from scratch without the person i'm trying to help because that doesn't teach them anything

#

And theres so much new stuff a new team might be hard to build day 1 but we'll try lol

#

Lemme think a little

dusky eagle
#

help building the minior core would be very helpful

#

i do need a rock setter to deal with sturdy or sash

#

i know that much at least

barren anvil
#

Besides that, i would suggest a screen setter like ninetales-alola and then classic HO cores

#

Gmolt scizor are great

#

I'm personally a fan of leaves but not a must

#

There are several

#

Oh and for stealth rocks

#

Speed-booster energy Sandy Shocks is my fav option

#

Oh wait moth is here too

#

Hang on my smartass forgot

#

But we should wait for a real rater too

#

If you need explaination on it feel free to ping me too

dusky eagle
#

this does make sense for the most part. my only question is on agility, is it really that impactful of a move? only gaining a speed buff for the turn feels inconsequential compared to boosting atk or def

#

Bunch of the sets like empo breloom rachi don’t rly make much sense and I’m not rly sure what your goal in the build is here?

#

Just stacking on a bunch of mons but I can’t rly tell whether you expect BO or HO

#

And what the synergies you have in mind are here

#

If you wanted to go the HO route you’d wanna get rid of half of these and focus more on offensive synergies eg things that open up ur azu more

#

If u wanted to go BO route play a more defensive empo, use a diff rocker like metagross or make ur rachi wish and fit rocks somewhere else

#

And put a better defensive core in

orchid nest
#

What's BO and HO

wispy peak
#

Bulky offense / hyper offense

#

HO is like utility mon(s) for upping hazards / screens and then 4-5 wallbreakers / set uppers / sweepers designed to just offensively synergise and overwhelm ur opp

#

While BO tends to have a defensive core and a longer term game plan but retains like a fair amount of offense and speed

#

Bo like a more offensive variant of balance that can’t just play defensively for ages but has the ability to defensive handle stuff still and rely on defensive cores a fair bit with things like regen mons, bulky mons with recovery etc

orchid nest
#

probably BO

this team is pretty strange
replace axe kick with sucker punch on lokix,that thing ain't need no coverage
arcanine really wants boots in this meta,and replace flame charge with rocks bc that's the only place i can fit that in
for the mandi i think you should replace toxic with roost,bc it needs foul play to punish setup sweepers,also change the evs should be changed to a more physically bulky one too
i feel like azu doesn't fit the team very well and it's prob better to make room for a special attacker since both lokix and arcanine don't have a good mu against garg
sandy shocks can maybe do something but i'm not too sure

ttar is p useless here considering u have garg

infinitely better mon for the cause, at least probably

i don’t hate gar so im@open to routes keeping it

# fresh grove https://pokepast.es/104952eb2fdd9c8e

expanding force reuni does nothing on this team, thunder wave can be nice but also makes it so any dark type hard walls your cm set. youre also not demon reuni so you cant stall out dark type either
pex itself is probably fine

hydrapple does not have enough atk to make sucker punch worthwhile. using sticky hold over regenerator sucks, feels like deadweight in general

setup moth should just be booster energy, giving it boots risks too many 50/50s for a setup sweeper. switch to u-turn or tspikes

tera blast fire makes you super weak to hazards on top of having a moth thats weak to hazards. just make it tera steel, elec, dragon and make final move tbolt, shadow ball, aura sphere, recover, flip turn any probably work comes down to preference

make tinkaton more defensive 252 atk is doing no favors

#

like another way to take it is slowking > pex and then you have 3 regen mons, moth can tspike to help with poison, and you get burn chance on chomp to help with mu

Built around bronzong as a passive garchomp and latios check. Also matches into deoxys-s, mamoswine, iron crown, metagross and can toxic bulkier threats. I’m running it over gwheezing for the latios matchup even though it doesn’t have recovery.
Chomp is standard
Moth is more my grounded poison, with potential for early t-spikes, and revenge killer over sweeper

Scizor has Defog so oger can keep sash and really deals with lead grimsnarl and ribombee. + uturn is great damage on latios and psyspam
Oger is mostly for the sturdy revenge kill or sd sweep, whichever is needed
Keldeo is scarfed for my consistent speed control, and Tera blast ice since ice is one of the most valuable offensive types in the tier rn in my opinion

#

Only matchup I feel shaky about is battle bond gren, since it outspeeds keldeo and moth, and with any amount of hazards oger losses sturdy

this is something
but there are no rocks setter

Yeah I thought maybe on garchomp over stone edge since I already have oger

  • Sand Rush Excadrill doesn't need to be Jolly, you still outspeed everything that's relevant in the tier if you're Adamant! Also may be a good idea to switch Iron Head to Rock Slide so you can hit Zapdos more effectively.

  • Ice Beam is pretty much entirely useless on Latios, the only Fairy-types in the tier are Tinkaton and Enamorus and Draco Meteor should beam Garchomp anyway. I'd recommend replacing it with Flip Turn if you're still going to use Choice Scarf. Alternatively, you could run a Tera Electric set with Calm Mind/Draco Meteor/Thunderbolt/Recover.

  • You could change Ogerpon to Ogerpon-Cornerstone, as well as changing Play Rough to Superpower, Spikes, U-Turn, Swords Dance, or any other number of options. Not mandatory, moreso just a suggestion!

  • Oh dear lord where do I even start with this Tyranitar. This is just genuinely kinda bad, Assault Vest is suuuper overkill when your special bulk in sand is already great, and if your goal is to keep sand up so Excadrill can do things, you'd really want to have Smooth Rock so that you can get those extra few turns, especially if you're aiming to get up a Swords Dance too. This + Thunder Punch reads like you lost to Keldeo one time and decided you were never going to do that again, but you really don't need that when you have Ogerpon and Scarf Latios and should not be relying on Tyranitar to deal with Keldeo anyway. Thunder Punch should probably be changed to Ice Punch to try and hit Garchomp on the switch. I would also change Low Kick to either Thunder Wave, Dragon Tail, or Stealth Rock, the latter of which could also free up a moveslot on your Garchomp for something like Protect, Swords Dance, or Stone Edge.

  • Skeledirge kinda feels out of place here? Like, I get that you want something chunky to eat up hits, but the chip from sand on a mon that loses to things that can just hit it really hard makes it a lot more difficult for it to be effective. If you want something similar, you could try Mandibuzz, Hydrapple, Tornadus-T, Toxapex, or even Enamorus-T.

# dark snow https://pokepast.es/16988d6bef2fc854 replaced ic with oger corner

couple extra things i wanna tack on that haven't been brought up!!

  • you may want to consider Leech Life over Sucker Punch on Lokix, since there aren't really a ton of targets for Sucker Punch that don't take more damage from a Bug move or are more crippled by losing their item. There are some mons that you can Sucker for pretty decent damage, but a lot of them do have ways around it or are often in conditions that would stop you (i.e. psyterrain).

  • you might want to consider thunder wave on slowking over future sight! this is more of a suggestion, since you do have strong breakers on the team that can take advantage. however, the speed dropping from paralysis can be really beneficial to a lot of your team members like Garchomp, Ogerpon, and Lokix, who are either a little slower than some common offensive threats or in a crowded speed tier. It also gives Lokix more opportunities to click moves that aren't First Impression!

  • as said, sludge bomb on tornadus should probably be a different move, and while heat wave is good, you could also consider icy wind! the speed drops are very helpful for making a lot of offensive mons less threatening, and it also gives you the added bonus of a fairly consistent and damaging click into non-tera'd garchomp.

  • entirely optional suggestion, but you could consider changing Garchomp on this team to Mamoswine since it's not running any hazards. AV mamo with EQ/Icicle Crash/Ice Shard/Trailblaze and a tera type of Grass is really effective at getting kills, and is shockingly bulky in snow which can be reliably set through Chilly Reception, also helping to get mamo in safely. This also notably improves your matchups into common mons like Tornadus, Zapdos, and Mandibuzz, and also gives you a nice failsafe into opposing Garchomp and Latios.

oh yeah i almost forgot about mamo

what are the evs for mamo if it's gonna run AV?

  • Hex on Rotom-W isn't really effective for anything, you're much better served by replacing it with Protect or Pain Split. You could also consider running Trick with a Choice Scarf.

  • Run Nasty Plot on Pecharunt over Destiny Bond, it's absurdly fat and you can abuse that to get a lot of setup opportunities

  • Run Calm Mind on Sinistcha over Scald, the only relevant Fire-type in the tier gets nailed by Shadow Ball and Ground and Rock-types are a non-issue unless they're named Tyranitar, which Scald isn't helping you much with anyway. The burn chance is also irrelevant since Matcha Gotcha has that too AND drains HP.

  • Tera on Skeledirge should be Water, Steel, or Fairy, Grass gives you a Bug and Flying weakness, neither of which are very good to have in this tier at the moment.

  • Lokix needs to have Boots as its item since you have no removal on this team, otherwise it'll get worn down too quickly and won't be able to be an effective revenge killer.

  • TankChomp needs at least 140 Speed, it's an important benchmark for things like Hisuian Arcanine. You can even justify max to win Dragon Tail wars against other Garchomp.

lucid storm
# twilit harbor https://pokepast.es/62386a0bd2881de1
  • I would change Spikes on Garchomp to Stone Edge, it helps you in the Zapdos MU since you're offensive and a non-STAB attack is getting more and more needed since people are starting to run more and more Air Balloon Fairy-types and the like.

  • You could consider Thunder Wave on Slowking over Future sight here, it helps Lokix be able to click moves other that FIMP at times and can also stop attempts to outspeed +1 Garchomp such as Scarf Latios, Scarf Mienshao, etc etc. It also helps with Booster Speed Iron Crown, which can kinda run this team through if you're not prepared for it.

  • You could also change Spikes on Garchomp to Stealth Rock and use Excadrill over Tinkaton, this gives you a spinner, an answer to CM Latios, and a way to deal with Rotom-Wash, which looks to be a really big pain in the ass for this team.

hi what's the best balanced team to assemble?

Lokix/Tinkaton/Slowking is prob the best starter balance core ya

gweez and quaq kinda suck

#

there’s elements of balance and elements of offense and ho, but none create a really solid foundation for the team

proud mirage
unique wren
#

the sets themselves aren’t too much of an issue thankfully

#

are there any pokemon in particular that you would like to keep? I can run through some things to change in a bit

proud mirage
#

You can change the rest

unique wren
#

most things won’t need too much changing!

#

but I’ll have a think

unique wren
proud mirage
#

Alr I'll try it out

Ty

proud mirage
#

ogerpon is the fastest thing and only after twra

unique wren
#

that’s a big issue when it comes to the mons you wanted to use, a lot of it gets outpaced easily esp with non-scarf lati

#

if you wanted more speed, I can make you another build in a second

proud mirage
#

Wait I have a question

unique wren
#

what’s up?

proud mirage
#

Is it fine with so little offense

#

This honestly looks like semi stall at this point

#

4 walls no sweepers no speed control

unique wren
#

the idea is to pivot in with pokemon like zapdos, ogerpon and empoleon so that you can use specs latios’ power as much as you can

#

this is pretty far from any kind of semi stall

proud mirage
#

Fair enough

#

Couldn't you get scizor over ogerpon here?

#

Bulky u turn

#

With swords dance and boots

#

Keeps the pivot

#

Gives speed control with priority bullet punch

unique wren
#

you could but it wouldn’t be particularly useful for anything

#

if you wanted to forgo the removal, which isn’t super important on this team, you could make mandibuzz lokix

#

that was what I had originally but I wanted to make it as close to yours as possible mons wise

proud mirage
#

yeah I do want to see the other version

#

lokix sounds good here

#

I dont rly care about the mons

#

other then specs latios

ik hannah already went over and rebuilt this w you but i do wanna give some pointers here that i think might help you out in the future :)

  • Tera Blast Ground on Moth isn't really the best since it doesn't want to be forced to Tera to use a coverage option, especially since being a 4x resist to Bug means it's one of offense's few ways to keep up with Lokix FIMP spam. If you want to hit things like Toxapex, try Psychic or Discharge!

  • Empoleon isn't a good Stealth Rock user, since it's already very strapped for move slots and also loses to common removal aside from Mandibuzz.

unique wren
#

I am doing it shut it you stupid bird

#

anyway

#

this team seems to have a lot of solid mons that kinda lack cohesion, as well as a way to actually break through teams

#

yeah that's about it
i get like 6 mons that do well and mash them together

#

weather ball zap with slowking is fun but there’s not a whole lot here that it’s doing esp when you kinda lose to drill once the balloon is popped

#

so heat wave?

#

choice scarf terrak and random iron moth also isn’t a very good way of being an offensive presence

#

heat wave definitely

#

oh how about sinistcha instead of moth
just thought of that

#

sinistcha is not doing great so I wouldn’t say so

foggy swallow
#

tcha is kinda bad and doesnt help with the issues your team has

unique wren
#

^

#

lets tag team this qob mainly because I have to go for dinner soon

#

we do need a grass tho that's for sure

foggy swallow
#

u giga lose to rock types btw

unique wren
#

I think keeping scarf terrak is fine but you need something that can poke holes in opposing teams so that they can sweep

#

yeah

#

I think cornerstone specifically is an issue

foggy swallow
#

tbh i think you drop drill for like tinkaton and just go no removal

#

and swap out moth for something else too

#

balloon tink

unique wren
#

slowking + tink + kix is a very secure core

foggy swallow
#

i think if you are running slowking terrakion the slowking should definitely be future sight

unique wren
#

esp with zap

foggy swallow
#

thats like

#

the whole point

unique wren
#

that was my next point yeah

#

twave isn’t needed here bc

#

it’s scarf raq

#

wait i gtg
idk how to finish this fast

#

what would you go for the last mon qob

foggy swallow
#

uhhh

unique wren
#

honestly maybe like

foggy swallow
#

not sure i kinda vibe with hydrapple but that might make the team too slow

#

btw i think zapdos should be spdef

unique wren
#

sd chomp could be okay as a way of breaking stuff

foggy swallow
#

on this

unique wren
#

ya agree

foggy swallow
#

oh goodness

#

you are right

#

there is no ground type

unique wren
#

yep yep

foggy swallow
#

ye chomps the best option probabbly

#

giv es u some setup too

unique wren
#

exactly

#

as well as a way to help against cornerstone

foggy swallow
#

this is how id run it

#

qob evs leaked

#

i think

#

also

#

maybe this kinda idea

#

could work alright

#

this exca set makes me uncomfortable though surely it does like zero damage

unique wren
#

hmm

#

for the chomp set if you do i think 48 defense

#

i think?

#

you can live foul play from mandi at +2

#

i cant remember if its with or without tera though

foggy swallow

oh thats nifty

it will be without tera because you always live it with tera fairy

I am getting back into comp poke again and am trying UU. I decided to build my own team to get a feel for learning again. I noticed that I have a hard time handling fighting and water types, and I think my garchomp/exca/ttar core is probably a little oversaturated. Should I consider replacing garchomp?

#

I feel like Zapdos would be a good replacement

lucid storm
# hollow radish https://pokepast.es/0c5f00fe0813c393
  • I would drop one of the three attacking moves on Excadrill for Rapid spin, since this team would definitely appreciate the removal (booster Moth especially!!)

  • You could replace Garchomp with Ogerpon if you need help into Water-types and also still want a setup sweeper! Cornerstone especially appreciates the SpDef boost in sand, although this does make the issue with Fightings a little worse. Hydrapple is also an option, although it does make the team a little slower. You could also use Tera Electric CM Latios!

  • Zapdos wouldn't be a bad fit on this team, although if you did want to drop something for it I'd probably consider Rotom-Wash since having both would be a little redundant

sub doesn’t feel necessary on psychic terrain imo so I’d just get the boost on zen/psycho cut

run booster speed cm expanding force cause you want to brute force

healing wish and max hp on indeedee since you can pivot in once on like a Latios Draco and have another round of terrain

probably excadrill for some hazard control

battle bond gren with sludge wave and extrassensory > torn so you have a real mon there

the thing is latios sets up on u or takes advantage of you since you are cc, and not knock

I feel you can go a route of exca > meta and go maybe slowking > quav but this is just an opinion

also im curious about shocks since maybe raikou is better esp since its faster than jugulis and shocks

latios deals with shocks in my opinion and for jugulis you may want tink > meta as this gives you a dark resist which is pretty nice to have (that doesnt die to hurricane, and gives you a 2nd lokix answer)

also a bit concenered about the fastest mon being latios but with raikou + latios + cornerstone + lokix u shoulde fine

Completely new team, we're trying sun this time.

regal stag

sort of same problem

#

sun team

#

with one sun abuser

velvet plover
#

Were I to replace my sun setter with something else, would the team be viable?

regal stag
#

now

#

I'm not the best UU player

#

But there are some sun abusers

#

but you have to go dumpster diving a bit in the lower tiers

#

and also due to ttar's presence and most of the protospam candidates being in OU you're limited to some niche picks

#

all weather teams generally can't afford to be stally

#

cause weather is limited so if you wanna commit to sun I'd scrap like half the team and commit to offence

#

otherwise yeah drop ninetales

#

can't really say for what tho

#

also some movesets could use some fixing

velvet plover
#

Done and done, Ninetales was replaced with a Tinkaton. We've got Gigaton Hammer.~

#

Movesets though, what would you tweak?

regal stag
#

I'd drop protect on donphan

#

you're not really gaining much from it outside of scouting

#

knock off is generally more applicable and is better for making progress

#

Reuniclus is kinda just an odd pick, its NU rn

#

it can be threatening but its held back by being pitifully slow and sometimes being forced to spam recover

#

which this gen it can't do very well

#

if you wanna run it, I'd use trick room

velvet plover

I grabbed it because I remembered it working for me previously.

its not unusable but not ideal
