I don't see what this set has over the specs set. Hydro pump is >50% more powerful than waterfall, and ice beam is considerably stronger than ice punch. You'd be better off with a more powerful physical water type, like Azumarill or Gyarados.

onicon gravity in general is incredibly underrated as a playstyle.

Caught a jolly raquaza on ruby. While I was saving the game, my batteries died. Boom.

Base Speed

I like _Rayquaza's general idea for the move--I think that a Rapid Spin clone is long overdue--but I don't really like moving one random entry hazard to the other side. After all, moves in general are based on real physics, so maybe if it just cleared an entry hazard layer or two it would make...

even though it's only in bw, i think that politoed deserves a mention. it was mediocre at best in every other generation--actually, if it wasn't for drizzle, it would be in ru, max this gen--but rain is so utterly metagame defining that it deserves to be on here somewhere. if drizzle didn't...

I agree with Brave Bird Spam in that Manaphy should be moved up to B rank. This bulky Tail Glow set is pretty much the ultimate stall breaker. Manaphy @ Leftovers Trait: Hydration EVs: 252 HP / 4 SAtk / 252 Spd Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Tail Glow - Rest - Surf - Ice Beam/Substitute...

garchomp is uber, btdubs. at least in smogon. although i agree with you on most of the rest of your comments. namely in that this team shockingly bad. okay. first of all, i'm really upset because i'd just prepared a long, detailed description on how this team sucks and what you could do to...

I used to run Spore, but with so many Magic Bouncers running rampant, it was really hard to predict without it being blasted back in my face. And since Technician hasn't been officially released, I have to play in DW and don't get to see the team preview, which just makes it harder to predict...

Right; sorry-I'll change it right now

Hey Smogon. This is my first RMT, a fifth gen semi-stall OU team. I'm rather new to competitive pokemon, but I've had a decent amount of success with this team. Anyways, here's a quick overview: THE TEAM: Breloom (M) @ Life Orb Trait: Technician EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spd Jolly...
