Hey, thanks for the very detailed rate! I like the suggestions and has given me a good amount to think about. I do note the Charizard weakness, as my way of dealing with it prior was pretty much get a suitably strong hit with whatever is in (or a paralysis with Zapdos) and hope to revenge it at...

Hi there, don't know if you're still looking for rates, but one good turn deserves another. One thing I'd suggest is possibly replacing Mantine - running a Defogger with a hazard stacking team is counter-intuitive - the priority would be on preventing or at least deterring Defog somewhar. I'd...

Thanks for the input, hugely appreciated. Good points. I've changed the Zapdos set to include Defog (Heat Wave still does enough to Landorus, plus the burn chance is nice) and with this, the Lopunny to have Ice Punch. I think you're also right about Stealth Rock - the fact that a good amount...

| | | | | Introduction I'd taken a bit of a hiatus from battling, not playing consistently since Gen 6. I wanted to make an offensive team around Mega Lopunny and Gengar, as their combination of speed, power and offensive synergy was appealing. The team looks to suitably weaken checks to...

Threat: Buzzwole @ Leftovers Ability: Beast Boost EVs: 204 HP / 192 Atk / 12 SpD / 100 Spe Adamant Nature - Substitute - Focus Punch - Leech Life - Ice Punch Buzzwole can come in on either of the two and either set up a Substitute or simply OHKO with either Leech Life or Ice Punch...

I've never used Dugtrio myself, but if I had to choose, I'd say Choice Band would be a good bet. If Reuniclus is down, then Blissey could become an annoyance, since Kyurem, Heatran and Slowbro cannot hope to touch it. CB Dugtrio handles Blissey the best out of its options. Something like this...

One problem you might have is with Tyranitar - not only does he remove the hail, but he is a strong check against Reuniclus, who looks to be the star of the team. Stone Edge and Crunch can do a lot of damage to any member of your team should your opponent choose the right move, plus it wouldn't...

Thank you very much for the rate. I like your idea of changing Thunder Wave on Rotom - it was previously used as a safe move against a switch in (or against something like Latios), seeing as few would switch a ground type into it, but it gets fairly sporadic use. I'll rotate between Toxic...

After Genesect was banned, I took a hiatus from battling, since my previous team fell to absolute pieces after begrudgingly removing it. However, from it I at least found a new favourite Pokemon in Latias - the combination of high speed, great bulk and decent power while checking the ubiquitous...

You're spot on with the hazards. I'll give Starmie a try. I'm going to change the Heatran set back as well - literally the game after I changed it, I was beat by a Toxic Heatran. I'm a little hesistant to change Latios, since I usually have quite a problem with CM Reuniclus. Trick was one of...

Introduction I entered Generation 5 a little bewildered after taking a break from PO. After trying out a bunch of new sets (failing miserably, mind), I decided to try and make a serious team. I loved using Specs Heatran in generation 4 because of it's power - with Latios not being banned...

The Shaymin EV spread sounds good, I'll put that in. I haven't come up against Lucario yet since changing, oddly, but since the previous LO Shaymin was EV'd to outspeed / KO, I'm lucky I haven't been punished for it. DDGyara hasn't too much of a problem. I haven't seen Breloom since the...
