Mood4food Going UU!

[mood4food77]

Here it comes. I have made a fully UU team. It seems pretty solid. I did try it out, it won it's first match but lost the next two. All three of those matches were against OU teams. So here it is.

Friggen Unicorn (Rapidash) @ Choice Scarf
Flash Fire
Jolly (+SPD, -SP.ATK)
252/252/6 (ATK/SPD/HP)
Flare Blitz
Megahorn
Return
Fire Blast

Lead. Has insane speed and very good attack. Fire Blast is just for switch-ins (and the fact the only other physical move that it learns is Poison Jab, in which only hits grass for SE which is taken care of by Flare Blitz and Megahorn). Great lead. Should I change the nature?

Loud Mouth (Exploud) @ Leftovers
Soundproof
Modest (+SP.ATK, -ATK)
252/252/6 (HP/SP.ATK/DEF)
Hyper Voice
Shadow Ball
Focus Blast
Substitute

With Substitute, he's able to deal damage. He has a very versatile moveset (but the base stats aren't amazing), so you really don't know what to expect. He also has the second best Special Normal move in the game (Tri-Attack being the first). With STAB, it hits with 135 base power off of a 309 SP.ATK stat, pretty powerful I think.

Turtle Shell (Blastoise) @ Leftovers
Torrent
Sassy (+SP.DEF, -SPD)
252/150/108 (HP/DEF/SP.DEF)
Rapid Spin
Toxic
Surf
Earthquake

He's my spinner, just incase SR appears. He's great in UU as a wall. Toxic is there to lessen the effect of sweepers. Earthquake so he isn't walled by Qwilfish or Empoleon.

Multi Eye (Claydol) @ Leftovers
Levitate
Impish (+DEF, -SP.ATK)
252/120/108/30 (HP/DEF/SP.DEF/ATK)
Stealth Rock
Earthquake
Stone Edge
Light Screen

Sets up SR, has full coverage with Earthquake and Stone Edge. Light Screen to help with the team's SP.DEF.

NIDOQUEEN! (Nidoking) @ Expert Belt
Poison Point
Adamant (+ATK, -SP.ATK)
252/252/6 (HP/ATK/SPD)
Earthquake
Avalanche
Brick Break
Sucker Punch

He has the best type coverage in the game. He can hit 14 out of 17 types! That's one better that Electivire can, too bad his attack isn't that of Electivire. Anyways, he's a beast. It's really hard to switch into him since he covers every type but water, bug, and fighting. What makes it better is that he resits bug and fighting, too bad he's weak to water. Still a great sweeper.

Happy Flower (Meganium) @ Leftovers
Overgros
Calm (+SP.DEF, -ATK)
252/130/128 (HP/DEF/SP.DEF)
Aromatherapy
Leech Seed
Toxic
Substitute

My therapist and annoyer. Comes in, heals the team, then annoys. Really helps this team out. Gets rid of those nasty statuses and gives some back. A subseeder also, very annoying.


So, how about some UU love?

 

[ss118]

Claydol's UU?

 

[mood4food77]

yea it is

60 base HP doesn't help it too much

Welcome to the UU metagame!

Here it comes. I have made a fully UU team. It seems pretty solid. I did try it out, it won it's first match but lost the next two. All three of those matches were against OU teams. So here it is.

Friggen Unicorn (Rapidash) @ Choice Scarf
Flash Fire
Jolly (+SPD, -SP.ATK)
252/252/6 (ATK/SPD/HP)
Flare Blitz
Megahorn
Return
Poison Jab

This thing is a beast. Too bad it has the crappiest movepool ever. It is walled by Ryheperior pretty bad, but it doesn't learn any other physical moves besides these (for the most part). I might change it's nature to Adamant.

I think Fire B;ast could work over Poison Jab, to hit Aggron and Bastiondon harder when they switch in.

Loud Mouth (Exploud) @ Leftovers
Soundproof
Modest (+SP.ATK, -ATK)
252/252/6 (HP/SP.ATK/DEF)
Hyper Voice
Shadow Ball
Focus Blast
Substitute

With Substitute, he's able to deal damage. He has a very versatile moveset (but the base stats aren't amazing), so you really don't know what to expect. He also has the second best Special Normal move in the game (Tri-Attack being the first). With STAB, it hits with 135 base power off of a 309 SP.ATK stat, pretty powerful I think.

Okay.

Turtle Shell (Blastoise) @ Leftovers
Torrent
Calm (+SP.DEF, -ATK)
252/150/108 (HP/DEF/SP.DEF)
Rapid Spin
Toxic
Surf
Metal Coat

He's my spinner, just incase SR appears. He's great in UU as a wall. Toxic is there to lessen the effect of sweepers. Not sure if Metal Coat is right for this set.

What the heck is Metal Coat? Do you mean Mirror Coat? Or is it that attack that reflects the opponent's attempts to status you?

Multi Eye (Claydol) @ Leftovers
Levitate
Impish (+DEF, -SP.ATK)
252/120/108/30 (HP/DEF/SP.DEF/ATK)
Stealth Rock
Earthquake
Stone Edge
Explosion

Sets up SR, has full coverage with Earthquake and Stone Edge, then Explodes as a last ditch attempt. Helps this team with stalling. Great asset to this team.

This Claydol seems to have no job for the team (besides SRing).

NIDOQUEEN! (Nidoking) @ Expert Belt
Poison Point
Adamant (+ATK, -SP.ATK)
252/252/6 (HP/ATK/SPD)
Earthquake
Avalanche
Brick Break
Sucker Punch

He has the best type coverage in the game. He can hit 14 out of 17 types! That's one better that Electivire can, too bad his attack isn't that of Electivire. Anyways, he's a beast. It's really hard to switch into him since he covers every type but water, bug, and fighting. What makes it better is that he resits bug and fighting, too bad he's weak to water. Still a great sweeper.

This would work good with a Choice Band and Ice Punch over Avalanche, or with Rivalry

Happy Flower (Meganium) @ Leftovers
Overgros
Calm (+SP.DEF, -ATK)
252/130/128 (HP/DEF/SP.DEF)
Aromatherapy
Leech Seed
Toxic
Energy Ball

My therapist and annoyer. Comes in, heals the team, then annoys. Really helps this team out. Gets rid of those nasty statuses and gives some back. Can also take hits here and there.

Looks good. I like Venusaur better. Right, Chill? (He probably won't see this)

So, how about some UU love?

Yes. UU Pokemon need more love. All wii ever see are OU Pokemon. ****ing Blisseys, and Gyaradoses, and Tyranitars... I can't take it anymore! Every RMT thread you see has pretty much the standard sets for the most standard Pokemon. I may as well not rate them any more, since they all look the same to mii.

I now reside in the UU environment. Will mood4food join mii?

Until wii meet again,

[mood4food77]

i'm going to switch between the two

but my OU teams are becoming less and less standard (who uses anger point tauros with salac berry)

i meant mirror coat on blastoise

i'll try venasaur out and see how that does

ice punch over avalanche, got it

i chose expert belt because it hits 14 types for SE, it makes the most sense

i think the main problem is speed though

i'll go for fire blast on rapidash, since poison jab is useless

thanks

I like your Rapidash a lot! Your Exploud is also excellent- Nice move choices! For your Blastoise, I also like that. However I'd replace Mirror Coat with Ice Beam for more coverage. Don't rely on taking hits- Take them out too! Great Claydol set, it looks like tons of fun. Your Nidoqueen also looks like great fun as well. While I'd suggest replacing Energy Ball with Substitute for SubSeeding, it would leave Meganium way open to Taunts. Just my thoughts.

. However I'd replace Mirror Coat with Ice Beam for more coverage. .

i disagree, hes a tank, so he wants defensive moves. I like the team, except like wii3mii(see what i did there? that was bad, sorry) said, claydol only sets up SR, then he has no point. His offenses dont do much :/ Try a CMer maybe :/ OOO, ya make meganium subseeder,

 

[Kaddy]

Finally, someone decides to join me in my love for UU/NU.

Nidoking is a beast.

 

[ss118]

Its time that I bring Linoone back to UU....
Nonetheless, I still think that Claydol is BL because it has a plethora(sp?) of good defenses and resistances to help it out. I's only problem is the inability to do damage outside of Toxic and SR. He does ge good attacks on both sides, such as Ice Beam and STABedb Earthquake.

 

[mood4food77]

he's a good poke, but he can be countered by the UU pokes that can't handle OU

i don't like CM claydol that much, it's not as good as mindzong or CM cressy, he also has a lot of weaknesses too (ice, water, grass, dark, ghost and bug), so it's not exactly the greatest thing

i might add reflect or light screen in there

Quick comments:

Maybe give Rapidash Will-o-wisp?? I don't know...

Nidoking is so 1337, too bad he doesn't have the good stats to back it up, otherwise it's straight to the OU's!

Wow...Claydol is UU...

 

[mood4food77]

yup, along with tentacruel

 

[MysticKenji]

That Blastoise is walled by Qwilfish >_>

Suggestion: Change nature to +Sp.Def,-Speed and give him EQ over Mirror Coat

EDIT2: And since you use this in OU also, this means Empoleon can't wall him either.

 

[mood4food77]

thanks, i'll do that

those changes that you guys told me are amazing, this team is kicking @$$ right now

and nidoking is a freaking beast

 

[Wii4Mii 99]

yup, along with tentacruel

Tentacruel is now OU.

D@mn... The UU team I'm making looked soooooo good (at least, on paper), but when I found out that my dear Typhlosion was BL...

Now I'm using CS Hitmonchan as a lead...

Until wii meet again,
Wii4Mii 99

 

[mood4food77]

they did make him OU

alright, i mean it's not like he's one of the most common pokes (i htink 27th) used on shoddy

 

[Kips]

I was thinking- Does Meganium REALLY need Toxic? Maybe some kind of move to avert the wrath of Grass Types while not adding too much redundancy or getting pwnt by Taunt would be better.

 

[mood4food77]

yea it does

it makes it's stalling so much more effective

also owns blissey's life
