Serperior Stats: 75 HP / 75 Atk / 95 Def / 75 SpA / 95 SpD / 113 Spe This stat spread seems relatively mediocre at first; good speed, average HP, above average defenses, and only average attacking stats. This will be explained further, but this distribution is key to its success. Level-up...

Well after a while away from Shoddy Battle, I decided to make a new team using some of the new metagame pokemon. The last time I was deeply involved with competitive pokemon, things like Choice Band Tyranitar and Choice Scarf Jirachi were extremely popular. Now it's all about Choice Scarf...

Well, after an annoying night of battling against Scizor BP'ing my sweepers I decided to make a team that didn't solely focus on stopping Scizor, but rather opening opportunities for my team to sweep by extension of killing Scizor. This includes what I consider "suicide luring", where you use...

The title is a bit random, but it is a song(Caustic Christ) and it vaguely represents how some UU pokemon are not even considered when some people make OU teams. They are eternally cursed, pretty much guaranteeing obscurity, except in their respective tier. Well I was thinking one day, I am...

Okay, well in the advent of BL and UU merging, I decided to make a UU team. At first, it was extremely difficult, because I didn't know where to even start, with 206 UUs AND NFEs. So I just decided to revamp my old UU team, and add in my favorite BL, Feraligatr. The Platinum updates also...

Well this team is a balance between offense and defense, hopefully setting up a NP Infernape sweep late game. This does not mean the entire strategy is based around him, but if it happens, great, if not, my choicers can run through other teams. So, here we go: At a glance sprites: pokedox.com...

Well this team has been working alright for me, its record is 16-4. One of the losses was due to a critical hit, but that is part of pokemon. The other 3 were either inferior team synergy or just lack of smart moves on my behalve. So, smogon, please help me improve my team! Overall strategy...

Uxie @ Nothing Ability: Levitate Nature: Impish (+Def, -SpA) EV: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD -Stealth Rock -U-Turn -Thunder Wave / Yawn -Knock Off Well Uxie is my answer for all of those TrickScarf leads. Since Uxie is not holding anything, Trick shouldn't even work, thus allowing me to...

This is a simple hail test team for the OU ladder on Shoddy Battle. The team takes advantage of the new Frost Rotom form to act as its anti-spinner, instead of its weaker, less sturdy competition in Froslass. Althought he doesn't get STAB on Blizzard, it is powerful enough in combination with...

The title is pretty lame but it is referring to the combo of Scizor + Heatran + Kingdra, quite possibly the best offensive trio in the game. EDIT: This team is 8-1 on Shoddy. Deoxys-S @ Light Clay Ability: Pressure Nature: Timid (+Spe, -Atk) EV: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 Spe -Light Screen -Reflect...

Trick Roomer #1: Banette @ Focus Sash Ability: Insomnia Nature: Brave (+Atk, -Spe) IVs: 0 HP / 0 Def 0 SpD / 0 Spe EV: 252 Atk -Trick Room -Destiny Bond -Taunt -Shadow Claw Banette is a pretty good lea, being able to set up Trick Room while also being immune to sleep, meaning Bronzong doesn't...

Spiritomb @ Leftovers Ability: Pressure Nature: Calm (+SpD, -Atk) EV: 252 HP / 136 Def / 120 SpD -Shadow Ball -Hidden Power [Fighting] -Rest -Sleep Talk This Spiritomb isn't an ideal lead but it is all I have to work with. Okay, first of all this can actually deal with lead Azelfs that...

Dragonite is my favorite pokemon of all time, but has been seeing hardly any usage due to SD Garchomp. I am not one of those ignorant people who is going to say that Dragonite is 100% better than Garchomp, seeing as it has a Stealth Rock weak, no SD, no immunity to sandstorm, a rather worthless...

Which is better? We all know that Salamence is used more often than Dragonite, but which one is better? When looking at stats, it appears that Salamence overpowers Dragonite when it comes to using Choice items, such as Choice Specs or Choice Band. Salamence also has Intimidate to work with...

Gallade @ Lum Berry Ability: Steadfast Nature: Adamant (+Atk, -SpA) EV: 236 HP / 84 Atk / 76 SpD / 112 Spe -Taunt -Close Combat -Hypnosis -Psycho Cut This is an excellent anti-lead poke, which accomplishes many tasks. First of all, the EVs allow me to survive a Timid LO Gengar's Shadow...

Well lately OU has been boring me out of my mind and even the other FE tiers have been, so I am testing out LC, or Little Cup. From what I have researched and heard it is very fast paced, perfect for what I expect from a Pokemon game. Okay, so since this is my first LC RMT, please, any kind of...

So I have decided to make an Uber team, just my second one ever. I appreciate all kinds of criticism, but I hope you all understand the core of this team is Palkia and Kyogre, my two most explosive threats. Blissey is on just about every Uber team soo really only half of my team can possibly be...

Steelix @ Leftovers Ability: Sturdy Nature: Relaxed (+Def, -Spe) EV: 252 HP / 120 Atk / 136 SpD -Stealth Rock -Earthquake -Roar -Gyro Ball I honestly don't care what people have to say about him. His steel typing is invaluable, switching into Outraging Garchomps and CB Tyranitar with relative...

Bronzong @ Lum Berry Ability: Levitate Nature: Relaxed (+Def, -Spd) EV: 252 HP / 128 Atk / 128 Def -Gyro Ball -Stealth Rock -Hypnosis/Earthquake -Explosion Bronzong lays down Stealth Rock ASAP for reasons you will later learn. Explosion is great and it has taken out many key pokes on the...
