kyogre should really be a koraidon man idk what to say
basc should def not be banded swift swim
Fair enough
Oh this explains a lot
I had sensed a lack of koraidon all over but thought it was counterintuitive with basc
So scale korai?
@empty bridge
If ur going webs w basc
The good sets are agility (w boots or some boosting item) + adaptability
Or
Scarf which is very niche but can be passable if u wanna be unique

do you guys think that this team will work?
we don't have jurisdiction over nd, you'd much rather take this over to the natdex non ou thread
oh, my bad

I literally know nothing about Ubers and somehow I forgot hazard removal???
I swore hooh had defog
I think I want tera water/ground on ndm instead of dark to resist kiraidons nuclear bomb
I don't really recommend running ditto and bundle together, I'd drop bundle prolly for scarf Korai and make Mirai into CM Taunt with Boots
What's the spread for that?
Max max jolly
Gotcha
It's a dex set, you should be able to find it
Mhm I did
I think you prolly want Ting-Lu over Ditto actually and Fairyceus over this Groundceus here imo
So what is the miraidon set?
I'll send a paste once I'm finished explaining changes
Gotcha gotcha
Anyways, Tera Dark is fine on NDM but you need Knock with hazards for it to be effective imo
That's why you go for rocks on Fairy and Spikes on Ting
What do I do against set up?
Fairy I'd recommend should run Dragon Tail on here
Anyways NDM should be a got faster and have DD over SD
Implementing my changes would result in a team like this
Yeah this looks great, thank you

the title literally says it's a UWC team
what are you posting it for lol ask Beleth to make it better
It's a team from past rounds lol, I'm going to use it on another tour (I'm not even in UWC)
one of the rules of this channel (rule five here: #1030567099703242903 message) is do not ask for rates on teams you did not build
Ah, mb
Arceus ice with tera ground is a good counter to miraidon with judgement
https://pokepast.es/7f10148a66a9ef6b
Built this based off of an analyses that Oreo wrote in the totw ubers channel (but the team is mine, I just stole the base core lmfao)
The whole point was a team with zek and caly-i so that's a must keep, everything else is volatile

Lack of mirai severely scares me but i dunno if its feasible to fit it
Perhaps over groundceus or ndm
I think the biggest thing I’d change up here is
Either dd sunsteel ndm or ekiller > groundy
Up to u but
Caly I shaky
Wym?
Probably the first i guess because
Otherwise i lack any special presence
Oh kinda i guess
Guys I made this team for fun I want to know what should I change or how can I make the team better overall even with different pokemons. Just want to get better at teambuilding overall so any advice is good. Thank you 🙂
Yeah it should be for ubers I didnt know that she is banned here
If you want to figure out how to start in this tier I can pass some resources to help you 🙂
Flutter mane is fine here but the others suck
Yeah that would be awesome 😄
I have really like almost 0 experience in team building and I dont know where to start

Welcome to the Scarlet and Violet Sample Teams Thread! Here you will find a collection of approved sample teams that represent the current SV Ubers Metagame. The mission statement of Sample Teams is to deliver structurally sound and simple to use teams...
Generally this tier is run by Koraidon and miraidon
Oh ok
Otherwise, you generally don't have any types of how to compose teams in any tier?
in any tier?
i think you can start off the vr, finding a mon you're interested in
read up their dex analysis to see what checks it
and what commonly pairs well w it
you can kinda form a 2-3 mon core with that alone
and then round it off with general things like a volt absorber / speed control / steel type etc
@devout turtle if that makes sense
A little bit yes 😅, thanks for the advice I will try it
oh another thing i forget to reply
make that shit max bulk groundy imo
if u want u can keep it as is but
i personally like making them fat groundies
This is for gen 7 - I'm not sure about cottonee and nosepass and I'm looking for another defogger - any suggestions?
No restrictions.
We do not rate teams with added restrictions, see rule four: #1030567099703242903 message
Ok - I'll remove the restricition.
This is simply not at all viable for SM Ubers, your only viable Pokemon on this team are Primal Groudon and Smeargle, and aside from the PDon the sets are not viable in the tier.
I'd highly recommend using a sample team from here, as this team is far from the standard and can't be rated in this state.

I am trying to cook with this balance sorta team, ekiller gets cooked by Tera ghost koraidon so here I am with fairyceus.
Does the double status work, I have always been messing with both.

Paste ^
Just need to not get cooked by the bikes
And have some chance against other archetypes
team looks super zacian weak
i'd prob make one of fairyceus or caly into an ndm
or
make fairy -> waterceus
and make ho oh fully bulky

@cinder fox u got it
@cinder fox wake up its rating time
yes taka 😔
treads and ditto are super not great in this tier and ghostceus is mega outclassed in the tier
that said i do see what you're going for with this team so this is workable

composition is fine but there's some set issues
miraidon shouldn't be specs, it should be boots with either cm or u-turn (your choice)
Set issue..?
Alr
ribombee shouldn't have bug buzz here fs
you're better off with pounce/u-turn in that slot
Alright
Um okay
Ndm, Basc and E-Killer sets are fine?
I think this Arceus should be a Groundceus personally but if you wanna keep ekiller it's fine
I tested a bit with Groundceus, but wasn't able to use it properly
Basc should be Wave Crash > Liquidation and NDM should have Boots with Stone Edge > Sunsteel and Tera Fire > Ground
I'll test it, thx
made some changes if you dont mind taking a second look https://pokepast.es/ad1d0b9972d5526a
really not a fan of the clodsire but it's ok if you wanna keep it
but rockeus should always be a fairyceus here
and groudon should be an ndm
imo clod should also be tspikes instead of rocks and you prolly want a glisc > gambit for spikes
this is prolly ok
if you can't get caly in then gira's dtail in conjunction with hazards is okay short-term
but you gotta get caly in at some point
Unfortunately tho the nature of SV is that no matter how you try to account to everything in the meta, balance will still always have insufficient tools for some key threats 
fs
STFU
@cinder fox mid ahh builder
Lmao
Can I post a nat dex dubers team here?
Trying to make it centered around mega garchomp
Ik mega garchomp isn't great, but I'm trying to make it work
So what kind of ndm should I make it? Max max defensive or trick room? Or maybe dragon dance?
Probably defensive dd and you make wisp on fairyceus -> rocks
can someone please help me fix my team? sorry if im being pushy
Your going to want special attackers to counter physical counters like ho oh with tera
Yes I need to use special attackers
Do you have any suggestions for ones that work well with sand teams?
we don't rate natdex, you're better off going to the natdex non ou thread for that
we don't rate natdex, you're better off going to the natdex non ou thread for that

Ok thx
whole team hinges on electric terrain being up and there's currently a miraidon suspect so
it might be unusable extremely soon
espathra has absolutely 0 niche in Ubers rn and same goes for skymin
chienpao's tera electric stuff is neat until you realise you are only clicking it vs stuff you already beat so like, whats even the point? hitting NDM?

double water? lolz?
Double water was a misbuild
I realized after sending
Lol
Its 10 30 PM and i have some people at home + i woke up at 7 lmao
Some more stuff probably slipped over
As it stands i swapped kyo to a ho-oh but amog
That's
(though that's def more a tier issue than a team issue tbh)
Well besides waterceus it really is
LMAO fr
uhm i think kyogre is fine here
but def should not be scarf kyo
Twave kyo?
Ait
etc
gira over mirai probs
Physical or special
physical always
Ok
polter dtail sneak is great utility
Ye looks okay otherwise
https://pokepast.es/eb49466799828637 ik ogerpon is D on the viablity but idc
New [Gen 9] Ubers RMT @lime prairie, @wooden cosmos, @steep tulip, @warped pier, @versed lava, @crude turtle, @cinder fox. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
if you're running ogerpon I would recommend on webs
even after trailblaze it's slower than scarf koraidon which sucks, and immediately scaring out zacian is really big
bc you go from getting smacked by cc to potentially forcing a switch to get sd off
with webs most of this can stay the same tbh, just a more offensive dd ndm and a set up mirai, korai and ekiller are fine
ribombee > lando probably solves the other issue of ogerpon
since it's kinda bad and needs a ton of support
but in theory can work
what would be my mirai check/counter?
outplaying
HO doesn't usually have hard counters
but ig with this you would be weaker to it than you'd like
you can do groundceus > ekiller or zacian > ndm to help w that
and a tera fairy mirai of your own
my legendary spam team
i was getting keen on replacing any pokemon with zapdos or Any other pokemon suggestion
Deoxis speed isn't really doing much you'd most likely end up getting it killed just to set up spikes I'd suggest replacing it with something like Flutterman as it's a fast special attacker with a good type combo
Dying to set hazards is a viable niche a lot of pokemon have
The rest of the team is more problematic
If you wanna use deoxys HO then you can keep ekiller and ray but the rest of the mons don’t really fit
Defensive groudon is just a bad mon but especially with deoxys it just sinks momentum, and Kyogre can work but would want to be more offensive
Darkrai is just bad
I'm pretty sure darkrai is better in doubles anyway
A standard deo ho w the core of deo ray arc would be like those + mirai korai zac, or groundceus > ekiller with those and you can keep ogre somewhere bc groundceus helps vs mirai
https://pokepast.es/dd94b4188a6abd0d i heard zarude is a usable pokemon and i think i made a shit team with it Gen 8 Ubers
ik yvelt is on 110% of teams but
where is your ygod
and y zarude is usable but absolutely not as a team's sole dark type
i really dislike the garm here personally
i think i'd go for ygod > darm
new ubers team https://pokepast.es/c26d57244b3ed5f5
I like how the bot just
gave up on tags
your koraidon is missing a nature and ho-oh on offense is not a good fit
also idk who gave you this deo-s set but it's fraudulent af
wdym
ho-oh is defence
i made it
the set works frfr i use it
@steep tulip replaced superpower with pshycic
is it fine now
you want psycho boost
ok
what else
ho-oh on ho is bad
and this ndm set is not good
would make the ho-oh into a caly i and ndm into the tr set
what would u change in the team
I sent in #comp-general but essentially
CM Arc-G > Ekiller, DD > ID or SD Trick Room on NDM, and Kyo > Ho-oh with this set:
Ability: Drizzle
Tera Type: Normal
EVs: 180 HP / 252 SpA / 76 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Thunder Wave
- Origin Pulse
- Ice Beam
- Water Spout```
can also run a bunch of defense on Kyogre
if you wish
o\
Oreo destroying creativity
I agree w Oreo’s changes
I think the ogre addition tbolt says makes the teams momentum a lot worse
I would much rather put caly I or like kyu-b or smth
would have to have a tera normal somewhere if you want groundceus
and groundceus can't be your tera normal
cuz it's too busy dying to mirai
we don't really rate natdex, you're better off asking in the natdex non-ou thread
but i used non-legends
Can someone help me change my team a bit?
Main gimmick is to beat up on archaludon for x4 defense and use body press, but I'm new to comp so I am not confident
For natdex ubers, you should probably use #1060037469472555028
Can someone help me with my team please?
However, I'll put it in advance that sadly, no Pokémon on your team is viable in the National Dex Ubers ladder
Or rate it?
The power level for that metagame is too high for the mons you chose and we as a server usually don't rate teams with arbitrary restrictions such as non-legendaries
I see
Sorry to say it but this team kinda falls under the same concept as the team I was talking about earlier
It's sadly unviable for the Ubers tier, except Calyrex-I which is good but not with this set
Anything in particular I should change?
Oh and baton pass is banned lol
It is? Well then fuck
To be brutally honet, I'd suggest checking out sample teams or at least the viability rankings
Don't feel bad tho this is extremely common with new people
I doubt anyone ever started with a seriously good team off the bat lol
!ubersresources
uh whats the command again
Pokemon wise? Yes
There should be some set swapping but by now we can wait for a real rater
That's an ENORMOUS improvement for one day
Gj really
Unrecognized tier; please choose one from the list
^
Ah ty
just made this team randomlyhttps://pokepast.es/4ef78a0d848fb169
ps : first time didnt use smogon built whatever i felt like
is it hyper offensive? should i change gliscor to deo speed? other suggestions?
what did bro make
Sir this is the ubers tier
Thats a OU team
And a uh very interesting OU team at that
I shall remove it very sorry good sir
What's tera fire on rayquaza for?
Why not go ghost/normal
I think I sent the wrong one actually
Also tera blast ice on mirai is not good
Calm mind + Draco deals with ting lu well enough
Just use Tera dragon
Gliscor doesn't fit here
Go glimmora or deoxys speed but what I'd recommend is actually running ribombee
Yeah I sent wrong one
Also kyogre is uh quite interesting

Unrecognized tier; please choose one from the list
I know I've just tried to get counters prepared like zekrom
Try using a sample team kr
Here's the thing
The team doesn't work
I know
I've tried to use it but out of 5 I win 1
Dragonite is also just unviable in ubers
Actually more then half if your team is unviable
Can someone help me do the movesets and items on my team pls?
It won't really work so I'd suggest make a new one
I'll try rn
Here's a few tips
Mind checking out my new one after?
Can someone help me do the movesets and items on my team pls?
You could also get inspiration from sample teams
Looks like a offense
It is
Alr so
Spdef ho oh is trash
The only 2 notable special attackers in the tier are kyogre and mirai which ohko you anyways
Flutter is also notable but physdef ho oh deals with that well enough anyways
Also tailwinds trash in singles
The special def ho oh was an accident didn't realise the EVs were wrond
Unless it's on ribombee since its gonna die anyways
not singles
Oh shit
Wait
This isn't even where your supposed to go for double rates
This is the wrong channel for double rates
This isn't?
But that team unironically looks like a single teams if you don't look at the sets so I thought it was a goofy single teams
Which one is it then?
look thru the rate my team thing
Only one ubers tho
Do you want a good team or like a fun team?
This teams uh
Bad
I want a fun team
Well uh this server only rates competitive teams
You can use any fun team you want but this server only rates viable teams
Ah
Ye i had thought of deo speed
Since it's hyper offensive
Here's the thing, I would personally never tera mirai unless it's against stall or balance matchups
Since against offense teams it's easily revenge killed and your tera is kinda wasted then
And stall or balance isn't common rn
Tera dragon also just hits stall and balance just fine
Ok so these changes i should do
Gliscor to deo speed
Ice Tera for Mirai to dragon
Fire Tera for rayquaza to normal
?
But why not fire to ice for rayquaza @vivid heart
Is it cus i can switch to kyo ?
Why not ice tho
The question is why ice
I don't see any reason to
Ice beam 1 shots Ray
Any Pokemon
So normal works fine
The only ice beam user in ubers rn is kyogre
Tera normal works fine for kyogre
Don't think so
Darkrai
But he is rare
Darkrais unviable
Ok
Yeah
Ok I used to use that
@vivid heart ok 1 more question do I stick with kyogre Tera ice or change to normal and for miraidon do I also change Tera blast
for miraidon just use substitute over tera blast
and for kyogre change it to the smogon calm mind set
m using calm mind set am I not
@vivid heart after changes what would u rate team outa 10
Send me the team after changes
Ok ima do
Wait lemme turn on laptop
@vivid heart https://pokepast.es/83b2273d32c337f7
Id change superpower to psycho boost on deoxys speed
Apart from that tho it looks fine
8/10 ig
what r immune or strong aginst phsycic types tho
Dark is immune to psychic and hits it super effectively
yeah it's fine
what would u do to the team to make it a 10/10
idk i don't use HO rn
ok
On this kinda team I wouldn’t recommend using kyogre and I’d also recommend switching up a few sets
Ray if you wanna keep it has to be jolly when you aren’t running webs since you’re slower than zac at +1 and this team is already super farmed by zac
Bc of the zac weakness I’d probably make it eseed agility mirai to have smth that can live one hit from the standard set and threaten back w drift
I feel like > kyogre either tr caly or ndm are better for controlling the pace of the game since you lack speed control otherwise without webs which is why I don’t really like deo rn compared to bee or glimm
Webs and tspikes offer so much usually
If you did want to build this around kyogre changes would be a bit diff but similar idea, just like make it tera fairy and a bit bulkier then go from there on trying not to lose to zacian and scarf koraidon
i lke rayqauza so i wanted to build around him
ok
https://pokepast.es/0c69191dc9192d5a
just beat a top 10 player with this and hit ladder :')
struggles against stall massively
https://pokepast.es/3960e31f716c1c95
@cinder fox amog
not a huge fan of mgar here and i think exca is a better lead than deos
would go for tomb exca > deos and megamence > mgar
you could also maybe get away with sunsteel on ndm over stone miss if you're feeling like ndm is the more relied upon xern check
yeah.
the ndm spread should be 28 hp 220 attack 8 defense 252 speed
Ig lol
Can I put doubles teams in this?

hey, there are good ideas here, but frankly the issue is from a few of these mons
the meta is pretty centralized, so its hard to fit sutff like lugia / archaludon / ndw / and terapagos

kyogre for drizzle so fire type weakness on magerena is halved
it is far easier in ubers LOL
if u wanna work w ogre basc core
i think cyclizar grimm mage are making this team more awkward
i feel like ground type like ting or treads or glisc works better
and u can try out groundceus / fairyceus > ekiller if u want too but up to u
oh also cyclizar mage are bad
oh
hmm
i think this entire build is a little awkward ngl
i think basc ogre mage is just kinda hard to fit
but
if u want to build around mage ogre basc grimm thats fine
cyclizar has to go though
for who
cyclizar and arceus need to become other HO mons like groundceus / koraidon / miraidon
sun would mess up my mage and ogre
ngl this team is too gimmicky so i cant really help much
but
ur too weak to other kyogre
if u dont go koraidon mirai is ur safest bet
with arceus ground next
i dont think you can build a good team with
magearna + basculegion though
one of these has to go
what if i replace magearna
then i would probably restructure the team to be like basc ogre korai ting-lu fairyceus gliscor for a more BO team and basc ogre korai ek zacian grimm for an HO
boots ogre on the ting team, mystic or wacan or whatever on the HO
where do i fit it though
Nature of stall but
Ndm doesn’t beat most stall rn anyways bc of the defensive normalceus/ darkceus
The best bet is prolly adamant scale shot Koraidon
Can anyone evaluate my team and see what I can change or what specific attack to put in
Gardevoir ---- Excradil ---- Komo-o ---- Venosaur ---- ribombee ---- Blacephalon

hi im ngl
this team is just not usable in any tier
maybe if u removed glastrier and dragonite for ru mons it would be usable in ru
i suggest looking at the sample teams / vr / and recent uwc replays
is with uber pokemons are fine rihght
https://pokepast.es/11c59359960f9206 im new to pokeshowdown so idk if this is good
Uff, I need to be able to improve this team, double status arceus fairy was awesome other than the fact that I struggle with speed control and is forced into a bunch of speed ties, so here is another offense team that I have built with the arceus that I am familiar with: https://pokepast.es/67a7ae7fc5acdb26
New [Gen 9] Ubers RMT @lime prairie, @wooden cosmos, @steep tulip, @warped pier, @versed lava, @crude turtle, @cinder fox. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
And yes, this team struggles with the most used Mon in the tier but everything else are momentum sinks for me, maybe this team is better as an HO team?
Fairyceus was really awesome but revenge killing was hard
I'd run scarf Koraidon for sure here and probably replace the Caly-I with a ground
Also idk how I feel about 3 atk TR NDM on such a structure.
I just feel like I needed a powerful sweeper like koraidon
And wanted to build a team that revolves around getting in koraidon and maybe sweeping
Hyper offense could also be used but now that basculegion is gone maybe that cannot be as good as before?
Since scale shot koraidon is a real set, can you make it so that this team revolves around it?
And the 3a trick room is because I am tired of seeing me just set up trick room as Ho-Oh gets a free switch
And if I swords dance on the switch it’s then a guessing game + rng
(But technically I only have a 80 chance to beat it here too so I guess I am doing it wrong.)
Maybe this team will function better as an hyper offense team
Maybe I am better off making it that way
Plus Tera ghost koraidon is fun and predicting that Tera on the bird is awesome but that’s outside the main point
Anyways, just keep the sweeper koraidon part, since it’s a real sets it’s gotta fit on SOME team, right?
The only hyper offense I have ever played was basculegion webs, but that is completely unusable now.
I feel like this team turns up short sometimes
https://pokepast.es/3334fc4d3e2cb66d
Of course, you are using the fakest team ever, USE REAL LEGENDARIES.
And real sets while you are at it

One of the most broken sets available in Ubers
But if you wanna build around it you prolly wanna go HO
Fym real legendaries
I’m new to this server, is this thread regular ubers or all ubers? I couldn’t find one for Nat Dex Ubers specifically is why I’m asking
everything BUT natdex Ubers goes here
ND Ubers goes in https://discord.com/channels/192713314399289344/1060037469472555028
Bet I appreciate it! Ngl when I saw that I was thinking that was anything under OU in that one
I see, I’m new to pvp & comp stuff so wasn’t really sure. Only done UU & NDUbers a couple times. The pixelmon server I play on’s current wz season is a take on NDUbers w custom mons, is why I was specifically asking for NDU
I’ll give that channel a look. Again I appreciate it very much
any time

Haven't built much since Mirai DNB but built this earlier today because I'm in the mood 👍

I personally like 120 speed ndm tho.
Btw did you cook me the team?
I'm testing out both spreeds lol
No i had to go sleep, i can try to do it rn
But its hard
I dont play freedom cup lmao
Except w friends
Pls do, just remember the fact that I need to be able to deal with minimize shit and baton pass + sleep
Send it in the dms
Not many issues outside of me thinking this etern set doesn’t fit
Deels like u want defensive paired w gliscor
Ah alright ty
Sorry, was on this acc and didnt catch the ping
probaabbly my best performing team yet https://pokepast.es/2830cc33bdbd96aa
In my opinion that NDM set is just wrong
how
Why are you running lorb on a set with rocks?
Rocks are for defensive sets
A trick room NDM also should have a moveset something like this:
Trick room swords dance photon geyser and earthquake
And the item should not be lorb, this just decreases your longevity and you need swords dance for the breaking power
Try something like occa berry if you want to safely set up on koraidon
Or weakness policy to take advantage of prism armor
And why the heck are you running Tera fighting zacian with no fighting moves?
That’s just pointless
Fairyceus probably benefit more from another move like stealth rock or maybe taunt
Or if you wanna get extra spicy you can try wisp, but that’s not confirmed to work
I love it tho but take that with a grain of salt
Scale shot koraidon is better on hyper offense than your team
Scarf would be better as you will need some speed control here
You don’t have ekiller so you need some speed control even more
And no, max HP zacian with no attack is not a real set here.
TLDR, need speed control, fake sets, etc. ^
There are more probably, let’s let the people who come later to do it cuz I can’t.
Ok this looks a bit better
But for a more in depth analysis wait for the raters to show up
Been 2 days but again, you want 252 attack on zacian
Intrepid Sword is not enough to justify running 0 attack
Other than that I'd prolly wait for a rater yeah
Did not notice that lmao
Lol
https://pokepast.es/0292cd8c65220c98 What should i change in my first rain team ? (not changing pokemons, but movesets, items and abilitys yes) :D
Peliper had wrong ability, changed it to drizzle already :)
i could change Kingdra or Peliper
Uhhh ur in the wrong place
This is not a real Ubers team
but can i play it in any other format ?
Stuff like koraidon and miraidon are right there
Lemme think
lol
If you remove kyogre
This maybe can work in Ubers UU
But stuff like urshifu and palafin and palkia-o are right there too
do you recomend any rain team with archaludon ?
Not in Ubers at least
Go check Ubers uu maybe
its good ? https://pokepast.es/bd40d9c3d179408a
New [Gen 9] Ubers RMT @lime prairie, @wooden cosmos, @steep tulip, @warped pier, @versed lava, @crude turtle. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
exceptionally weak to miraidon
make the lando-t into sth like ting-lu
you are also not really insulated vs ho-oh
so maybe power gem>ice beam on groundceus @potent hound
Ability: Vessel of Ruin
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 SpD
Tera Type: Poison
Careful Nature
- Earthquake
- Ruination
- Stealth Rock
- Whirlwind / Spikes```
Nature on caly is also wrong
Ada > jolly
oh thx

i had an idea abt flame body moltres and thought it might work
Ho-Oh is 100 times better sorry to say
same def but ho oh has more HP and Sdef + regenerator + better movepool
And sacred fire and better moves + coverage
Replace with Ho-Oh and this will be a nice team
Tho rain is kinda anti synergy with fire bird
you'd run brave no?
Ada is usually good for the ting lu matchup
But brave is also good for the calyi mirror
Its preference
these r my teams for ubers
am a hyper offensive player
arceus is ekiller
kyogre is choice specs
dusk mane is defensive with dd instead of stealth rock
koraidon is scale shot
miradon is setup sweeper
zacian is wallbreaker cc
deo speed is hazard lead with psycho boost
mew is hazard lead with misty explosion

which team is better for ubers?
@steep tulip hello you're online
As a non-rater but a decent enough ubers ladder player
specs Ogre isn't an HO mon imho. You'll find more success and more easily with Zacian if I'm not suggesting any changes.
A few imputs:
-
the first team is better for hyper offense imo
-
run offensive necrozma instead of defensive (EVs)
-
close combat over play rough on zacian and tera fighting, to break NDM
-
probably double Dance miraidon
But let lasen speak
Ok
Ok
I'd rather this be TR NDM if anything. If you are gonna do boots Miraidon it should be Taunt as well because atm you're struggling vs opposing Zacian if it had webd support.
You can do bulky NDM if you want to, but it has to be faster than sth like Kyurem-B at +1
so should i run the trick room ndm
and what shall i do about kyogre, should i not use him at all or switch him to calm mind?
Isn't TR better tho? Gets to invest in HP and outspeed zac with TR up
TR was the initial suggestion so yes
Yeah its 252 hp
I'm not home so sunstall can aid you
I mean I'm not as good as you but
That sums up it
Taunt over volt switch on mirai, attack investment on zacian, trick room ndm
Rest seems solid
Ty lasen
ty guys
Np
Kyogre is a good mon but not for this archetype
So probably yeah
Kyogre is better on non HO
yup
Gl lol
thx
oh i did the wrong evs
i was doing 252 atk instead of hp
Yeah do 252 attack lol
yeah meant to do that
Lol
@empty bridge why taunt over volt switch tho
Other than that the team seems solid
You don't need to actively pivot out in hyper offense, and volt switch kills your calm mind boosts
Taunt also lets you win calm mind wars pretty consistently
Np lol

Hows this webs ho team
New [Gen 9] Ubers RMT @lime prairie, @wooden cosmos, @steep tulip, @warped pier, @versed lava, @crude turtle, @twilit quiver. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
this is incredibly vulnerable to oppsing hazards
that's normal of webs teams
you just have to not give them the chance to set up
the problem with this is that it just kinda uses suboptimal mons
specs ogre is pretty niche as is and you're still slower than boots mirai / scarf korai, so you might just be giving it a free in to click a move your team has no resists to
and lando is just kinda bad
can't beat ho-oh
the team itself is fairly standard, I think it'd just be better if you put a koraidon > ogre or lando then changed out the other one for smth else
like zacian to outspeed opposing miraidon or just ndm
yeah I was gonna say if you're not gonna use the brokens then at least be better in the webs mirror
Imma be real, Lando was just a meme
the standard webs build looks smth like bee bikes arc +2, usually some combo of zac ndm and niche etern / ray / kyu / second lead
if you don't use groundceus I'd recommend zacian since you're weak to opposing miraidon
but like making it korai + zac > ogre + lando alone makes the build so much more threatening
make it fighting cc zac
no move to hit ndm is sad and lets you just lose if it clicks dd twice
What should I replace cc for
usually prough gets dropped
you can technically drop behemoth but I don't like that here when fairyceus annoys this team already bc of kyurem dragon spam
looks good, I'd maybe consider ghost ekiller since you don't have a low kick resist but this should be fine
p standard webs build
Would A-ground be better
wouldn't be a bad option
might be better but hard to say objectively
I'd usually use it on smth like this personally tho
Cm or d-dance
dd probably, if you go special I personally prefer rocks taunt on webs
but cm 3a is also decent surprise factor
Thanks for the help mate
np

it's not that good
but if you wanna use it I'd fix the tera type on Zacian and maybe turn ogre into ho-Oh and make Miraidon boots
what do i change the tera on zacian
i forgot to add one
oh wait tera fire right?
fighting
This team has 0 response to entry hazards while also having 5/6 mons vulnerable to them

sorry this team is not viable at all; if you wanna do sun gimmicks then koraidon is 100% mandatory for Ubers and the movesets of the pokemon here are not good
I suggest you check out ubers samples and dex sets
https://pokepast.es/8a476fce5dda53aa How is this?
New [Gen 9] Ubers RMT @lime prairie, @wooden cosmos, @steep tulip, @warped pier, @versed lava, @crude turtle, @twilit quiver. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
Your team gets owned by koraidon, just saying.
An arceus forme can be very welcome here
Spdef Ho-Oh is not a real set
Still you have no defensive answers to koraidon
But this is miles ahead of random casuals thinking that they should use their favorites
This
Lmao
Go physdef ho-oh and probably u-turn over calm mind on miraidon
Also tera Dragon or Ghost on Miraidon
...wait I'm 5 days late
Sorry didn't know this channel was so dead LMAO
But if you still need this, yeah an Arceus forme over something sounds like a good move, maybe over etern unless you want to keep it
Not sure about that one tho
kk, i'll try Wow + Dtail Fairy Arceus over Eternatus
Gl lol
https://pokepast.es/540093fe3d78f45c Hey, new guy here. I’ve been using this team for the past two days with legendary pokemon now in season 18 of ranked battles. I’m somewhat new to competitive so any critiques and suggestions are welcome! A little context, I kept losing to every single Calyrex shadow rider team so i saw that hisuian zoroark is inmune to astral barrage and can hit it with a shadow ball for big damage. Usually send out urshifu next to it so I can hit dark types who may threaten it. Flutter Mane for my fairy type and great stats, metagross for bulky physical attacker, and rayquaza because Tera normal extreme speed and gets rid of weather. Like I said prior I’m open to suggestions of tiny tweaks in moves or stat distribution to new pokemon altogether. Thank you again 🙂
Oh and amoonguss for sleep and redirecting
Bros in the wrong channel
Why the hell are you using redirecting moves in singles
Get out of the kitchen
Also what is this new regional metagross? Bleakwindstorm meta is something
Anyways your team is fake as heck
I have no idea what you are cooking
Crunch Ray is not real
New [Gen 9] Ubers RMT @lime prairie, @wooden cosmos, @steep tulip, @warped pier, @versed lava, @crude turtle, @twilit quiver. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
thanks c:
Urshifu is a fake pokemon
and that means…?
Choice items should not me on HO
It’s not viable
ah
Koraidon is just better as a fighting type
he’s came in clutch quite a few times though.
Bros on low ladder
yeah, just started.
Replace with scale shot koraidon
alright, what about my Miradon?
And replace mirai with some standard setup set like double dance
Defensive dragon dance NDM does not fit on webs
Try max speed and attack with adamant nature
And stone edge
alright, thanks. I’ll go change that
And Ho-Oh does not fit on HO
Flutter mane is not too good on the vr rankings either, I suggest going for something else
Like zacian
And if i wanted to swap to defensive from HO?
Zacian-C
what should i change
That works
Remove ribombee then
and swap with?
And replace scarf urshifu with scarf koraidon
alright
With some defensive arc forme to deal with koraidon and stuff
fairy?
Yea that’s a staple
i used to use rocks, thunder wave judgement arc fairy.
I personally like wisp but that works too
And pivot miraidon will work well there too, specs require a lot of prediction to work
alright, thanks
what does tr mean btw?
Try this
It’s a better, but I suggest looking for more advice from the other eaters
Raters
thanks!
Cuz it’s not perfect
not sure how i feel about ting-lu
You need it to not get smoked by miraidon
Or use spdef groundy, but that thing sucks ass
Double dance miraidon would work better here, otherwise this team is miles ahead of many others I have seen.
Also I personally like Tera fighting close combat other than Tera fire, as it removes your ground weakness and can muscle through defensive necrozma dusk mane.
Hyper offense might want taunt arceus, but that’s just me
Also try 3 speed IVs on ndm
Also try Tera ghost koraidon
thx

Messing around with SVUbers a bit.
New [Gen 9] Ubers RMT @lime prairie, @wooden cosmos, @steep tulip, @warped pier, @versed lava, @crude turtle, @twilit quiver. I won't notify you again for at least 6 hours.
Specifically wanted to build Zek.
can't recommend zek
also the ww is kinda just there
you could prolly do ogre instead @fervent hare
albeit you remain weak to pivot mirai, like, a lot
also helps w ho-oh kinda
Could Ting-Lu be another Ground that does better into that kinda thing?
no; that's your best bet tbh
you could maybe do double ground with gliscor but zekrom will still make the team lose some level of consistency
I'll just see how this can ball with Ogre.
https://pokepast.es/c28dbc552bb20871 what moves can i put for this team, im mainly trying to use tinkaton + iron hands + trick room setters + ursalona
wrong channel bud
err
What do we think about this?
I have torkoal/ninetails set up sun, and then charizard teras fire
BUFFS:
50% (stab) + 50% (sun) + 50% (solar power) + 50% (tera) + 30% (life orb) = 230% or an increase of 3.3x damage. It allows me to one shot anything neutral and do 70-80%+ of a resistant's health.
Downside is he loses 9/40 of his hp per turn, resulting in his death after the 5th turn
Tera is 33.3%
If you're already base Fire
Because it boosts from 1.5x to 2x if you already previously had STAB
But either way, Charizard is too slow and weak to hazards to get the hits you want, sadly
And it dies too fast yeah
If you could get it working, Ogerpon-H would do the same but better
So idt this is gonna work competitively unfornatunately
I said 50% since im already spamming flamethrower
and i replaced life orb with choice specs for more dmg and less drawback
Tera Fire boosts Charizard's Flamethrower by 33.3%, multiplicatively, compared to its non-Tera power with the same modifiers
Not 50%
But that's beyond the point
Lol
is this just not true?
Correction
Check the last phrase
2x instead of 1.5x
This is a math concept but
2 is 1.33333 * 1.5
It's a 50% increase in comparison to the original power before STAB, but a 33.333333% increase compared to the ACTUAL original power
That's just how mathematics work
Lol
for future reference questions like these should go in #comp-general
This is hella confusing
there was a 1,5x increase because of stab
now we get another 1.5x
Go compgen
but also charizard is simply not viable in ubers period, it simply cannot hope to compare to the top mons in the tier
Ill explain better over there
Ofcourse I just use it for fun lol
its hilarious seeing groudon getting 1 tapped by a flamethrower
if you're using it for fun that's fine but don't expect more feedback than "don't use it seriously"
Hey guys I'm new to ubers, and competitive Pokemon in general :>
I've just started out in it recently and I'm kinda liking Koraidon. I don't take it too seriously, and I'm just looking for some fun in the highest tier ˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶
Currently running him with Deoxys-S and Arceus cus I felt like they'd work well together, but I'm having trouble filling up the whole team
. I wanna build a lil offensive team with Koraidon as the centerpiece (not quite ho, but still a very heavy offense)
Here's my Deoxys-S and Arceus sets btw, just copied the recommended sets ¯_(ツ)_/¯
a team with these three is probably always going to be HO, but for starters you should use the smogdex set for Koraidon
after that it’s just more offensive guys: SD Zacian, SD Kingambit, any Miraidon set, etc..
can fit a grounded Poison like Eternatus to help with opposing toxic spikes
also gives you some semblance of a backbone for an offensive team
also Recover on LO Arceus doesn’t work too well imo. You’re just going to be attacking until you faint. Taunt is nice because it lets you keep Skeledirge low which helps Koraidon and potentially Zacian a lot
Agility + Power Herb Eternatus 👍
Yeah i was thinking power herb here
wait I left the ping on, ignore that
