Does anyone know if it's possible to run sand rush dracozolt on showdown? I'm in a draft league and considering drafting it but I can't seem to get the abilities to work on showdown even though from what I've seen, it's possible to do over wifi.

Thank you so much for the rate! I really appreciate all of the thought you put into it. I do like the switch of kartana to scarf with defog. That gives me a faster defog and a better way to deal with a variety of threats. I'm willing to sacrifice the set up presence for that. I don't think...

Hey, thanks for the rate! Love the name btw There are a lot of things I like with these changes; however, there are some things I don't like Positives: Way better fire type matchup, better way to deal with grass types, more reliable hazard removal, better mawile matchup, retains volt turn core...

Greetings Smogon! After months of scouring the OU tier for the best team archtype, I think I have found a collection of mons that has the best offensive match up in the OU tier, having virtually no defensive cores (aside from probably some kind of stall) that can beat them. To support this, I...

I'd also like to stay with the topic of lures and post a core that I've been enjoying recently. Because it isn't a full team, I can't really post it in an RMT so I would appreciate help on how to finish it. But in my honest opinion right now is that the meta is in a stage where you gain an...

Hey dude, thanks for the rate; I really appreciate it! Firstly, I like the roost on koko; I will see how it works instead of dazzle. I actually had roost on there for a while when it was a cm koko, but I took it off for coverage. I will definitely try again I LOVE the idea for vest bulu...

Darkium Z Hoopa // Vincune Balance So this is a team I made a while ago around a fire/water/grass core of tangrowth, suicune, and heatran. The sets and other mons have changed a lot, but here is the final version of the team. It focuses on using the core to absorb hits, koko and lando to...

Hi! I really like your team, I used Alolan-Golem in the early days of SM with a similar trapping set, and it's a lot of fun. I think it has a niche over magnezone because it does trap every single steel type with fire/edge/quake/charge coverage. I think I used firium Z, but I like scarf too...

Aye Strong Jaw, here's a couple Necrozma teams for you and maybe Emvee to mess around with. All three are different sets with different teams around them. Calm mind lum berry with webs - https://pastebin.com/4Gp1NPqy Bulky Z wallbreaker with bulky offense - https://pastebin.com/XK5WZPGA Rock...

So USUM just released, giving us a better chandelure, the strongest gyro ball in the game, and some dragon poison type that's going straight to ubers. So, I thought might as well abuse it while I can. I quick whipped up this team after messing around with Naganadel for a while. Naganadel @...

IMPORTABLE Ninetales-Alola @ Light Clay Ability: Snow Warning EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpA / 252 Spe Timid Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Aurora Veil - Hypnosis - Freeze-Dry - Encore Tyranitar-Mega @ Tyranitarite Ability: Sand Stream EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Adamant Nature - Stone...

Hey Smogon! It's been a while since I've posted an rmt, mostly because the metagame changes every two seconds and I haven't really had a team that has stayed solid in the every changing SUMO OU metagame. However, I dug up this team that I had used a while back, made some changes, and started...

Thanks for responding! I have tried HP Ice in the past, but it was really only for those two mons; chomp is 2HKO'd by gleam as is lando after some previous chip. This mon really has nothing to hit ferrothorn and scizor, which is where the HP fire comes in. I will try HP ice again though and see...

So, Mawilite and Beedrillite were released just a little bit ago. Although I do like myself some buffed fell stinger beedrill, I had to build a team around mega mawile before it got banned. I decided to make a team based around countering mega mawile's weakness, namely fire, ground, and steels...

Hey smogon, we back! So I feel like the OU tier has solidified a bit, and I decided to build a balanced team centered around my two favorite wallbreakers in the SM OU meta right now, Tapu Lele and Tapu Bulu! TapuLatte (Tapu Lele) @ Choice Scarf Ability: Psychic Surge EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD /...

Hey, very nice team. I have a very similar hail team that I have been using to pretty good success. The first thing I would suggest is adding freeze dry on ninetales, which helps you deel with mons like Toxapex and slowbro. Hypnosis can be clutch, but it isn't worth it in my opinion because of...

I switched out mega ray for this reshiram set: Reshiram @ Lum Berry Ability: Contrary EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe Naive Nature - V-create - Superpower - Draco Meteor - Roost

Hey smogon, This month brought an amazing twist on one of my favorite metagames, balanced hackmons. Now, I can wreak havoc with twice as many mons on the field! TEAM CONCEPT. Basically, I always lead with Deoxys and another mon that has the best potential to sweep. Dark void, sub up, and win...

Thanks so much for the rate, and yes, I agree, zygarde was the weak link. Even before I read your post, I had changed it to a sub-SD salac garchomp, which was working pretty well. I will have to think about changing ferrothorn, as I am a huge fan of it on this team, but you do have some good...

Thanks so much for the rate! I agree with most of the changes, especially the ferrothorn set. I don't typically use CM Clef, but since I discarded thundurus, I do think it is a good idea. I will be implementing these changes as soon as I can. Thanks!
