Fixing My Viewers' Terrible OU Teams 

Me on my way to build an Offense Stall Hyper Offense Balance Bulky Offense Sun Rain Sand team

plusle sure is a pokémon

its kinda depressing that kingambit would improve all of these teams...truly a monster

god that first team is such a lowladder meme i love it

What do you think about featuring one of the teams you fix in a video or during the same video ? It would be entertaining to see one of those into action piloted by yourself

Imagine you give your team to your favorite pokemon creator for them to rate, and they rate it a 1/10 and fix literally everything about it

I think it’s perfectly acceptable to tell someone their team isn’t viable for laddering. Even if somebody has more fun playing a specific team and doesn’t care too much about winning, it’s still helpful to let them know the reasons why certain choices won’t work well in the current meta-game. Another thought I had was if you have an alt account you don’t care about, that if you used some of these teams on ladder you could highlight where they’re strong and where they struggle after your team overview/explanation.. though that might be too long of a video

Those videos are great really entertaining. It would be cool if you could give the fixed team also a rating from 1-10 how usable they would be in OU.

2nd team having 5 ice weakness (with one being 4x weak) feels weird. even if meow can protean out of ice weakness or you can tera out of it.

Hi pinkacross! I wanted to mention that first team was also using zen headbutt on metagross instead of psychic fangs heres my submission, Raging Bolt with leftovers Ability: Protosynthesis Tera Type: Water EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe Timid Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Calm Mind - Thunderclap - Weather Ball - Draco Meteor Cinderace @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Libero Shiny: Yes Tera Type: Flying EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Pyro Ball - Court Change - High Jump Kick - U-turn Dragapult @ Choice Specs Ability: Infiltrator Shiny: Yes Tera Type: Electric EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe Timid Nature - Shadow Ball - U-turn - Draco Meteor - Thunderbolt Regidrago @ Choice Scarf Ability: Dragon's Maw Shiny: Yes Tera Type: Dragon EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe Hasty Nature - Draco Meteor - Dragon Energy - Earth Power - Explosion Kingambit @ Leftovers Ability: Supreme Overlord Tera Type: Flying EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Spe Adamant Nature - Sucker Punch - Kowtow Cleave - Iron Head - Swords Dance Corviknight @ Leftovers Ability: Pressure Shiny: Yes Tera Type: Dragon EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def Impish Nature - Roost - U-turn - Defog - Brave Bird

Very insightful video btw! Your other videos really helped me understand differences in types of teams from hyper offense to stall.

hey pink! This was more of a fun team but it's performing better than expected and even managed to beat your recent latias HO team (all on low ladder tho) anyways here is my team I call it brave birds :D Hephaestus (Corviknight) (M) @ Leftovers Ability: Mirror Armor Tera Type: Dragon EVs: 248 HP / 252 Def / 8 SpD Relaxed Nature IVs: 0 Spe - Iron Defense - Body Press - Roost - U-turn Poseidon (Pelipper) (M) @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Drizzle Tera Type: Ground EVs: 248 HP / 252 Def / 8 SpD Relaxed Nature IVs: 0 Spe - Hurricane - Knock Off - Roost - U-turn Zeus (Kilowattrel) (M) @ Choice Specs Ability: Volt Absorb Tera Type: Fairy EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Timid Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Hurricane - Thunder - Weather Ball - Volt Switch Athena (Blaziken) (F) @ Leftovers Ability: Speed Boost Tera Type: Steel EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 Spe Adamant Nature - Swords Dance - Flare Blitz - Earthquake - Protect Artemis (Quaquaval) (F) @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Moxie Tera Type: Water EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Aqua Step - Ice Spinner - Rapid Spin - Flip Turn Cronos (Porygon2) @ Eviolite Ability: Analytic Tera Type: Ghost EVs: 252 HP / 8 Def / 248 SpD Sassy Nature IVs: 0 Atk / 0 Spe - Thunder Wave - Shadow Ball - Recover - Tri Attack

Been loving these kinda vids, keep it up!

the way the first team had all the team specifically made male but all default tera types is certainly interesting

great video dude! Love your content, helps a lot to improve :)

Seeing just... a chill team tweaking that takes everything as seriously as possible isn't a niche I knew I needed

Love your content! Iron Hands has always seemed to have potential. Here's my submission. Iron Hands @ Choice Band Ability: Quark Drive Tera Type: Electric EVs: 56 HP / 200 Atk / 252 Def Adamant Nature - Supercell Slam - Close Combat - Earthquake - Ice Punch Glimmora @ Focus Sash Ability: Toxic Debris Tera Type: Ghost EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe Timid Nature - Stealth Rock - Mortal Spin - Earth Power - Memento Roaring Moon @ Booster Energy Ability: Protosynthesis Tera Type: Flying EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Dragon Dance - Knock Off - Earthquake - Acrobatics Dragapult @ Choice Specs Ability: Infiltrator Tera Type: Ghost EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Timid Nature - Draco Meteor - Shadow Ball - Flamethrower - U-turn Maushold @ Wide Lens Ability: Technician Tera Type: Ghost EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Tidy Up - Population Bomb - Bite - Encore Ogerpon-Wellspring (F) @ Wellspring Mask Ability: Water Absorb Tera Type: Water EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Swords Dance - Ivy Cudgel - Power Whip - Encore

I ran into you on ladder a couple days ago! Im loving the content, keep up the good work! This was my team: Great Tusk @ Leftovers Ability: Protosynthesis Tera Type: Steel EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Headlong Rush - Ice Spinner - Knock Off - Rapid Spin Slowking-Galar @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Regenerator Tera Type: Water EVs: 248 HP / 8 Def / 252 SpD Sassy Nature IVs: 0 Atk / 0 Spe - Sludge Bomb - Future Sight - Toxic - Chilly Reception Kingambit @ Leftovers Ability: Supreme Overlord Tera Type: Flying EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 Spe Adamant Nature - Iron Head - Kowtow Cleave - Sucker Punch - Swords Dance Dragapult @ Choice Specs Ability: Infiltrator Tera Type: Ghost EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Timid Nature - Draco Meteor - Shadow Ball - Flamethrower - U-turn Volcarona @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Flame Body Tera Type: Grass EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Timid Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Quiver Dance - Fiery Dance - Bug Buzz - Giga Drain Skarmory @ Rocky Helmet Ability: Sturdy Tera Type: Dragon EVs: 252 HP / 160 Def / 96 Spe Bold Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Body Press - Iron Defense - Spikes - Roost

surely the first team wasn’t meant to be OU? Wasn’t Pelipper in UU at some point this gen?

Let's goooo! This is one of my favorite series on the Internet :)

I built this as just a fun team to mess around with on the ladder but have been getting some decent success with it. Zoroark is def the weak link, being just a bit too frail to come in and just not fast enough for the current OU meta, but wasn't sure what to replace it with. Darkrai @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Bad Dreams Tera Type: Poison EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Timid Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Dark Pulse - Sludge Bomb - Ice Beam - Focus Blast Zoroark-Hisui @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Illusion Tera Type: Fairy EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Timid Nature - Tera Blast - Shadow Ball - Flamethrower - U-turn Tinkaton @ Leftovers Ability: Mold Breaker Tera Type: Water EVs: 248 HP / 8 SpD / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Gigaton Hammer - Knock Off - Encore - Thunder Wave Dragapult @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Infiltrator Tera Type: Fairy EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe Naive Nature - Hex - Dragon Darts - Thunder Wave - Will-O-Wisp Volcarona @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Flame Body Tera Type: Ground EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Timid Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Fiery Dance - Bug Buzz - Tera Blast - Quiver Dance Alomomola @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Regenerator Tera Type: Steel EVs: 4 Atk / 252 Def / 252 SpD Careful Nature - Scald - Flip Turn - Wish - Protect

Do you intend to make this a series? If yes, will it be only for the ou ladder or it will have lc or uber teams? Loved the video btw

This is my team: Rillaboom (F) @ Miracle Seed Ability: Grassy Surge Shiny: Yes Tera Type: Grass EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe Adamant Nature - Drain Punch - Knock Off - Grassy Glide - U-turn Gliscor (F) @ Toxic Orb Ability: Poison Heal Tera Type: Water EVs: 244 HP / 252 Def / 12 SpD Impish Nature - Earthquake - Spikes - Protect - Toxic Latias @ Leftovers Ability: Levitate Tera Type: Fighting EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpA Bold Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Stored Power - Calm Mind - Recover - Tera Blast Tentacruel (F) @ Leftovers Ability: Liquid Ooze Tera Type: Flying EVs: 252 HP / 240 SpD / 16 Spe - Knock Off - Rapid Spin - Surf - Flip Turn Hawlucha (F) @ Grassy Seed Ability: Unburden Tera Type: Electric EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe Adamant Nature - Swords Dance - Close Combat - Acrobatics - Thunder Punch Volcarona (F) @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Flame Body Tera Type: Ground EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Timid Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Quiver Dance - Fiery Dance - Tera Blast - Giga Drain

I attempted a team with Metagross & Hydreigon. Here’s the pokepaste. Skarmory @ Leftovers Ability: Sturdy Tera Type: Dragon EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 220 Def / 20 SpD / 12 Spe Impish Nature - Stealth Rock - Whirlwind - Roost - Drill Peck Jolteon @ Choice Scarf Ability: Volt Absorb Tera Type: Ice EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Timid Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Volt Switch - Shadow Ball - Tera Blast - Thunderbolt Metagross @ Choice Band Ability: Clear Body Tera Type: Steel EVs: 160 HP / 252 Atk / 96 Spe - Bullet Punch - Earthquake - Knock Off - Psychic Fangs Hydreigon @ Choice Specs Ability: Levitate Tera Type: Poison EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Timid Nature - Draco Meteor - Dark Pulse - Fire Blast - U-turn Swampert @ Assault Vest Ability: Torrent Tera Type: Ground EVs: 248 HP / 252 SpD / 8 Spe Careful Nature - Earthquake - Liquidation - Ice Punch - Flip Turn Moltres @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Flame Body Tera Type: Fairy EVs: 252 HP / 200 Def / 56 Spe Bold Nature - Hurricane - Roost - U-turn - Will-O-Wisp Is the idea of making Moltres & Swampert more offensive a good idea? I like the synergy of the team all together but a second opinion would be great to see I need to opt out for different Pokemon.

"Plusle living any hit is not happening" Wow you weren't kidding 252+ Atk Tera Normal Dragonite Extreme Speed vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Plusle: 298-352 (114.1 - 134.8%) -- guaranteed OHKO 252+ Atk Kingambit Sucker Punch vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Plusle: 262-310 (100.3 - 118.7%) -- guaranteed OHKO (no allies fainted btw) 252+ Atk Rillaboom Grassy Glide vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Plusle in Grassy Terrain: 255-301 (97.7 - 115.3%) -- 87.5% chance to OHKO (not banded btw) 252 Atk Choice Band Great Tusk Ice Spinner vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Plusle: 267-315 (102.2 - 120.6%) -- guaranteed OHKO This makes the fact that terrakion dropped to the same tier as this thing even funnier.

Kilowattrel @ Choice Specs Ability: Volt Absorb Tera Type: Electric EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Timid Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Volt Switch - Thunder Wave - Air Slash - Thunderbolt Breloom @ Choice Band Ability: Technician Tera Type: Grass EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 SpD Adamant Nature - Mach Punch - Spore - Bullet Seed - Bulldoze Beedrill-Mega @ Beedrillite Ability: Adaptability Tera Type: Bug EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - U-turn - Protect - Poison Jab - Fell Stinger Tapu Fini @ Leftovers Ability: Misty Surge Tera Type: Water EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 Spe Bold Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Defog - Surf - Moonblast - Substitute Gastrodon @ Leftovers Ability: Storm Drain Tera Type: Water EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpA / 252 SpD Calm Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Scald - Recover - Ice Beam - Pain Split Heatran @ Assault Vest Ability: Flame Body Tera Type: Fire EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 SpD Calm Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Flash Cannon - Earth Power - Flamethrower - Power Gem Im new but id like to get better id appreciate the most critical feedback 🙏

Love this video! Would be ok with you changing out a few pokemon each time. Especially if its a plussle 😂

i really like the ladder session videos and would like to see more, maybe another channel for just raw gameplay? also great video😊

Nice, keep up the work brother

This Is a fun type of video and everyone can learn since we for the most part are ignorant. TY

Amazing vid, thanks for the hard work you do :] I'm the guy who submitted Leafeon sun, hopefully you can cover that team in the upcoming vids!

13:55 my dumbass thought you were gonna say magnezone

Yo pinka great vid wanted to send a submission at some point but my issue was that i hadnt played this new meta yet (dlc 2) so i builded a team using Archaludon not in rain but as a rocks setter and check to grasses (Rilla, Oger) but it also included my fav pre dlc Iron Valiant set being scarf. U can choose which one you wanna build around. I didnt knew if i could send this team in ur latest vid since it isnt in this series so i sended here Archaludon @ Leftovers Ability: Stamina Tera Type: Fairy EVs: 248 HP / 84 Def / 120 SpA / 56 Spe Bold Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Draco Meteor - Body Press - Thunderbolt - Stealth Rock I actually forgor what the Def Ev's were for 💀. SpA is leftovers and Spe is for Jolly Gambit. Clodsire @ Leftovers Ability: Water Absorb Tera Type: Fairy EVs: 248 HP / 8 Def / 252 SpD Careful Nature - Toxic - Poison Jab - Recover - Earthquake The issue i ran with when choosing Clodsire for my team is that i wanted something that could check Fairies so bf i used Skele However i was also having issues with Walking Wake so i kinda merged both and got Clod even though my team already had both hazards. Iron Valiant @ Choice Scarf Ability: Quark Drive Tera Type: Fairy EVs: 28 Atk / 228 SpA / 252 Spe Naive Nature - Moonblast - Close Combat - Knock Off - Trick GOAT. Seriously this is the greatest Val set of all time the Atk EV's are to make it 303 and 333 SpA no calc reason :) Gliscor @ Toxic Orb Ability: Poison Heal Tera Type: Water EVs: 244 HP / 172 Def / 92 SpD Impish Nature - Earthquake - Spikes - Protect - Toxic Gliscor was added in an early version of this team were i was very weak to Ground and needed a Ground Type (i have 3 now lol) but he kinda just stuck bc its so good but its understandable if u swap it out for a corviknight or another flyer Kingambit @ Leftovers Ability: Supreme Overlord Tera Type: Flying EVs: 212 HP / 252 Atk / 44 Spe Adamant Nature - Swords Dance - Kowtow Cleave - Sucker Punch - Iron Head Needed Ghost switch all your vids said "use Kingambit" and i did it, also helps the team with Prio Great Tusk @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Protosynthesis Tera Type: Ground EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Headlong Rush - Ice Spinner - Knock Off - Rapid Spin Hazard removal is really hard to find rn and hey another Kingambit check can never be bad right? Here are also some bullet points i made to improve the team as well - Fire Switch-in: I've got none - Kyurem: I got REALLY lucky and didnt fight any Kyurem and when i did they usually just played bad but Specs Kyurem in theory looks impossible for this team to beat - To many hazard setters: Again if you look at Clod's moveset you'll see the issue maybe i should instead of using Poison Jab on Clod i should put U-Turn on Gliscor and make Clod the Spikes setter Anyways im really praying you take a look at this team in the next vid but if you dont i'll watch the vid anyways keep up the good work

Yo Pinka I love this series!! take a look at this team if you feel like it, the idea is to chip down the opposing team with hazards and offensive gholdengo so that hawlucha, rilla or tusk can win in the end game. Issue is its pretty weak to rain and I think its a little inconsistent (also tera ground lucha is for nuzzle, thunder wave and thunderclap). Rillaboom @ Choice Band Ability: Grassy Surge Tera Type: Grass EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe Adamant Nature - Grassy Glide - Wood Hammer - U-turn - Knock Off Hawlucha @ Grassy Seed Ability: Unburden Tera Type: Ground EVs: 252 Atk / 36 Def / 220 Spe Adamant Nature - Swords Dance - Acrobatics - Close Combat - Encore Heatran @ Leftovers Ability: Flash Fire Tera Type: Grass EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpA / 252 SpD Calm Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Magma Storm - Earth Power - Taunt - Stealth Rock Skarmory @ Rocky Helmet Ability: Sturdy Tera Type: Ground EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD Impish Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Whirlwind - Body Press - Spikes - Roost Gholdengo @ Choice Scarf Ability: Good as Gold Tera Type: Ghost EVs: 252 SpA / 252 Spe Timid Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Trick - Shadow Ball - Make It Rain - Focus Blast Great Tusk @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Protosynthesis Tera Type: Steel EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Rapid Spin - Headlong Rush - Ice Spinner - Knock Off

Honestly if you really wanted to commit to the "Pikaclone Rain" bit, I'd jut forgo the "clone" part altogether and run Pikachu. Grab a Light Ball and sling perfectly accurate Thunders and rain-boosted Surfs around. It Obviously you aren't topping ladder with this unless you're some kind of nut, but there's potential here to be a bit silly and still take games.

I would have loved to see just one team be fixed then bringing it onto the OU ladder for a few games to see how it does. overall enjoyed the video regardless :)

Erm… scarf electrode-h outspends and ohkos some swift swim Pokémon 🤓

I do love myself wacky sets. One of my best was (gen 8 pu) lilligant with lefties, quiver dance, giga drain (or mega), freaking healing wish and *fucking charm.*

Great video!! Just wondering, why did you use speed evs for +1 iron boulder on hawlucha when boulder resists both of hawlucha’s attacks?

Love this type of vid. I need to make a team with hitmontop

Yoo sick video! Learning time, boys haha

Do you do Natdex OU too? I'd assume no since it's vastly different from regular OU, but if so I'd really love it if my rain team gets improved. It's ok but it's def not the best

Best video yet, it's gonna take so long for me to understand team building lol

Yooo what!! Am like 11 hours late but thanks for the team feature and fix! Glad that the team I built at least scored a pass 😅😂

I'm curious what you think of Archaludon in the tier. It could just be a teambuilding issue, but it feels like a real pain to play around, particularly on rain teams, of course. It feels like it isn't difficult for it to steamroll you if it gets a good switch-in. Defense boost + special attack boost with Electroshot is a nasty combo, and tera means it deals with the ostensible counter I have for it, especially if it gets a free shot off due to needing to switch in on it. I guess there are some decent options to shut it down, Volc, some Gholdengos, Skeledirge, Clodsire, but it can feel like a crapshoot. I guess there's the idea that forcing it to waste its tera to remove my counter is a good thing, but it feels dubious at times.

Hey Pinkacross, I've been watching your videos for a few months now and tried making my own OU team with Hoopa U. I've been testing the team and something just feels off, I've tried switching out a few Pokemon but I still feel restricted when using the team. Feel free to replace the last four Pokemon, but please keep Hoopa and Iron Valiant if possible. Thanks in advance! Hoopa-Unbound @ Assault Vest Ability: Magician Tera Type: Poison EVs: 248 HP / 44 Atk / 40 Def / 84 SpA / 92 Spe Lonely Nature - Knock Off - Psychic - Drain Punch - Gunk Shot Iron Valiant @ Booster Energy Ability: Quark Drive Tera Type: Fairy EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe Naive Nature - Moonblast - Thunderbolt - Knock Off - Close Combat Great Tusk @ Leftovers Ability: Protosynthesis Tera Type: Fire EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Headlong Rush - Ice Spinner - Knock Off - Rapid Spin Raging Bolt @ Magnet Ability: Protosynthesis Tera Type: Fairy EVs: 64 HP / 28 Def / 252 SpA / 164 Spe Modest Nature IVs: 20 Atk - Volt Switch - Thunderclap - Draco Meteor - Taunt Gholdengo @ Choice Specs Ability: Good as Gold Tera Type: Steel EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Modest Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Shadow Ball - Make It Rain - Focus Blast - Psyshock Moltres @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Flame Body Tera Type: Fairy EVs: 248 HP / 248 Def / 12 Spe Bold Nature - Roost - Flamethrower - Will-O-Wisp - U-turn

I remember being a little kid and first encountering plusle in a doubles battle, even my 6 year old self scoffed at it's uselessness

I love the idea for the video, but I would be interested in your 1-10 rating after "fixing" it up as well

Hey, loved the video! I don't know if you do UU teams but I'd be curious to get your feedback on this one. Keldeo @ Choice Specs Ability: Justified Tera Type: Water EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe Modest Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Surf - Hydro Pump - Secret Sword - Vacuum Wave Tornadus-Therian @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Regenerator Tera Type: Fairy EVs: 80 HP / 176 SpA / 252 Spe Timid Nature - Bleakwind Storm - Knock Off - U-turn - Taunt Amoonguss @ Rocky Helmet Ability: Regenerator Tera Type: Steel EVs: 248 HP / 208 Def / 48 SpD / 4 Spe Bold Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Spore - Giga Drain - Sludge Bomb - Foul Play Scizor @ Choice Band Ability: Technician Tera Type: Normal EVs: 112 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 140 Spe Adamant Nature - U-turn - Bullet Punch - Knock Off - Quick Attack Swampert @ Leftovers Ability: Torrent Tera Type: Fire EVs: 248 HP / 144 Def / 116 SpD Careful Nature - Flip Turn - Stealth Rock - Earthquake - Tera Blast Iron Treads @ Assault Vest Ability: Quark Drive Tera Type: Flying EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Earthquake - Knock Off - Ice Spinner - Rapid Spin

I like rock types, but types and ghosts. So I can make a good team with like, one of those

I think one thing that I’m still not getting is moveset choice and speed EV’s benchmarks For example, with the agility metagross you lower it from 239 (which I’m assuming is some benchmark idk) to lower than gambit but still fast enough go outspeed pult at +2. Maybe this is just an error of the team builder not telling you what benchmarks they’re trying to hit And with movesets. Again with the metagross, what makes knock off better than bullet punch? Especially with booster speed mons everywhere 2 of which being valiant and boulder which don’t like taking a BP. I know it would probably make the videos even longer but for me, choosing coverage and EV’ing is always the hardest part of team building since I always feel like I’m just always trying to hit everything all at once (4 moveset syndrome) so it’d be nice to get a bit more.

I can't believe the disrespect to pusle >:(

What considerations go into selecting viewer teams? Would love to know, think someone else has also commented this tho lol

Do you think Scizor is viable in OU right now? You think a team could be built around it and be successful at the higher level?

That electrode team but with serperior instead could function I think

Hey pinka heres my team submission Rillaboom @ Choice Band Ability: Grassy Surge Tera Type: Grass EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe Adamant Nature - Grassy Glide - Knock Off - Wood Hammer - U-turn Alomomola @ Red Card Ability: Regenerator Tera Type: Flying EVs: 4 HP / 252 Def / 252 SpD Relaxed Nature IVs: 0 Spe - Scald - Wish - Protect - Flip Turn Heatran @ Leftovers Ability: Flash Fire Tera Type: Grass EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 212 SpD / 40 Spe Calm Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Magma Storm - Taunt - Earth Power - Stealth Rock Zapdos @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Static Tera Type: Steel EVs: 252 HP / 104 Def / 152 Spe Timid Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Volt Switch - Discharge - Hurricane - Roost Ursaluna @ Flame Orb Ability: Guts Tera Type: Normal EVs: 116 HP / 252 Atk / 140 Spe Adamant Nature - Swords Dance - Facade - Headlong Rush - Fire Punch Volcarona @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Flame Body Tera Type: Ground EVs: 252 HP / 104 Def / 152 Spe Timid Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Quiver Dance - Fiery Dance - Tera Blast - Morning Sun Ive never used luna b4 so i have no idea how to build around it...

Great vid

would love to see a vid with some solid teams with less obvious weaknesses

I like how you kept the plusle and decided forretress was the completely unviable one 😭😭

Cool vid if u do this again let me know how to submit teams

will you be making follow up videos with the teams that didnt make the cut for this one?

Yeah, starting off with a Brazilian team

Omg i lost to when u were testing the electrode team on ladder like 2 days ago !! I was too starstruck to play well but i will have my revenge soon ..

I think it would be interesting for you to give a rating for the team after you have changed it.

At 10:20 , how do you know what EV to subtract and added to? I want to know more about that 'Hazard Damage' you mentioned.

This would have been really great when I was playing competitive.

When are we allowed to post teams? I would like to see your opinion on a Excadrill/Boulder Sand Spam team

great series love it, i still suck though

One this i wanna ask is why not replace meteor mash for heavy slam on metagross on the first team?

I have a couple teams I would like to be reviewed.. what do I need to do to get you to take a look at what I can improve on?

Now if they were using Minun instead of Plusle, easy #1 on ladder

We gotta get that plusle team to blunder STAT

Forretress for spin and it gets a fire nerf due to rain. 10/10 synergy

:O can’t wait till you fix my teams :3

HEll yeah dude

Suicune @ Leftovers Ability: Pressure Tera Type: Poison EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD Bold Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Ice Beam - Scald - Calm Mind - Substitute Sinistcha @ Leftovers Ability: Heatproof Tera Type: Steel EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpA Bold Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Calm Mind - Shadow Ball - Matcha Gotcha - Strength Sap Donphan @ Leftovers Ability: Sturdy Tera Type: Grass EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def Impish Nature - Rapid Spin - Stealth Rock - Earthquake - Knock Off Mandibuzz @ Leftovers Ability: Overcoat Tera Type: Fairy EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD Impish Nature - Roost - Toxic - Knock Off - Whirlwind Kingambit @ Leftovers Ability: Supreme Overlord Tera Type: Fire EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpD Adamant Nature - Swords Dance - Kowtow Cleave - Sucker Punch - Iron Head Zamazenta @ Leftovers Ability: Dauntless Shield Tera Type: Dark EVs: 248 HP / 8 Def / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Substitute - Crunch - Body Press - Iron Defense I call this team "Knock n' stock" where the plan is basically to make early progress with leading mandibuzz or donphan and trying to knock off as many pokemon as possible, while also either setting up rocks or poisoning them. Then finding opportunities to switch in sinistcha or suicune to set up on them. (Stocking boosts). Gambit and Zamazenta are there because they make for pretty good win cons or hit takers when nothing else is able to. Also gotta have some OU mons in the OU team.

How do we send in our teams btw lol great series

this vids hilarious ngl LOL

Oh lord the amount of pokemon weak to Kyurem featured in this video.

Hi Pinkacross, could you please rate my choice specs Kommo-O bulky offense team? Kommo-o (M) @ Choice Specs Ability: Bulletproof Tera Type: Normal EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe Hasty Nature - Boomburst - Close Combat - Flamethrower - Clanging Scales Slowking-Galar (M) @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Regenerator Tera Type: Water EVs: 252 HP / 80 Def / 176 SpD Sassy Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Chilly Reception - Future Sight - Sludge Bomb - Surf Alomomola (F) @ Red Card Ability: Regenerator Tera Type: Flying EVs: 40 HP / 216 Def / 252 SpD Relaxed Nature - Wish - Acrobatics - Scald - Flip Turn Dоnphan (Great Tusk) @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Protosynthesis Tera Type: Steel EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Headlong Rush - Temper Flare - Ice Spinner - Rapid Spin Archaludon (M) @ Leftovers Ability: Stamina Tera Type: Fighting EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD Bold Nature - Stealth Rock - Body Press - Flash Cannon - Dragon Tail Dragapult (M) @ Choice Band Ability: Clear Body Tera Type: Ghost EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Dragon Darts - Tera Blast - U-turn - Sucker Punch

Me omw to take a full team of woopers to ou

i'm new into competitive pokemon, can someone explain me what's the matter in changing the EV's in HP from 252 to 248? I really don't understand what difference it'll make

Christ youre so /fast/. Like, team building is always what stalls me out and stops me playing competitive, but you just blitz it out

Here is my team Great Tusk @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Protosynthesis Tera Type: Steel EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Rapid Spin - Knock Off - Headlong Rush - Temper Flare Clefable (F) @ Leftovers Ability: Unaware Tera Type: Poison EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpA / 252 SpD Sassy Nature - Knock Off - Alluring Voice - Stealth Rock - Psyshock Volcarona (F) @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Flame Body Tera Type: Grass EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Modest Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Quiver Dance - Fiery Dance - Bug Buzz - Giga Drain Kingambit (F) @ Lum Berry Ability: Supreme Overlord Tera Type: Flying EVs: 252 Def / 252 Spe Adamant Nature - Swords Dance - Sucker Punch - Kowtow Cleave - Iron Head Kyurem @ Choice Specs Ability: Pressure Tera Type: Ice EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Timid Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Earth Power - Ice Beam - Draco Meteor - Freeze-Dry Meowscarada (F) @ Choice Scarf Ability: Protean Tera Type: Fire EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Adamant Nature - Knock Off - U-turn - Triple Axel - Flower Trick

are you gonna make more of these?

The Grassy Terrain team is 6-0 Kyurem tho :/

Plusle and Minun have always been my favorite Pikachu clones, it is sad they are so terrible. but at least they are cute

How can i submit some teams, and do you play national dex at all? I think its unserious but it allows for some real creative teambuilding which i love

Hey Pinkacross I am building a team with Zapdos, empoleon, great tusk, dragapult, and mandabuzz and I need the sixth Pokemon to threaten immediate power. Do you have any suggestions for the sixth Pokemon

team 2 when it runs into tera ground kyurem...

Hey pink! I was wondering do you think iron boulder will get banned?

First team straight out of gen 3

Why did you keep the Leftovers on Plusle?

Why do you say Forretress is unusable? I love that pokemon both casually and competitively, yes it isn't very good at higher elos but it has an amazing defensive typing and it can hit pretty hard with gyro ball, explosion, curse, body press etc or it can be a great way to setup hazards it learns all of them except sticky web.

uhh do i just post my team here i have a strategy toxic spikes glimmora with hex dragapult sounds good?

Where tp submit these teams??

Bluds over here using a plusle 🗿💪 blud knows whats strong 💪

Can you fix my team????

Forretreas usable just gotta know how to use it 😂

I’m interested in hiring you for 1-1 coaching. I’m a 1600 player on showdown but mainly abusing weather teams. I can’t read matchups very well or predict sets. Let me know how I can contact you. Thx
