Meh, I tried RU out and I must say that since every time I played UU in the past I epically failed (Yea) RU is either too easy or no one knows the awesomeness of Qwilfish. Yea, Qwilfish. You heard right.

Pinsir @ Lum Berry
Ability: Mold Breaker
EVs: 120 HP / 136 Atk / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- X-Scissor
- Earthquake
- Stone Edge
- Stealth Rock

Pinsir is here to set up Stealth Rock, which is SO DAMN IMPORTANT due to the number of SR Weak Bugs, Fire and Flying types in this tier. Wee.

X-Scissor cuts stuff real bad, and stuff. Primary STAB Move, and it's the Only STAB here. Earthquake is coverage, and Stone Edge is more coverage. Stealth Rock. I just explained it.

EVs / Nature
120 HP Bulks me up, so I can actually set up Stealth Rock. Might opt for a Sash and 252 Attack, but meh. I like it this way. Max Speed to Stealth Rock before Glalie or something Taunts me.

Aggron @ Choice Band
Ability: Rock Head
EVs: 80 HP / 252 Atk / 176 SDef
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Head Smash
- Earthquake
- Fire Punch
- Superpower

Aggron mashes stuff up real good. It's one of the blessings of this tier, especially since there's 2 really awesome Flying types here. Braviary and Swellow. No Staraptor, he's being awesome up in UU ^^

Head Smash when combined with Rock Head makes an AWESOME WRECK EVERYTHING Rock type STAB. Choice Banded Rock Type 150 Base Power from an Aggron STAB. The other three just cover Steels. Earthquake for other Aggrons, Fire Punch for stuff like Klingklang, and Superpower messes with Magneton... I guess. IDK.

EVs / Nature
Max attack breaks stuff and leaves blood on the floor. 80 HP lets me hit 301 HP (Same with Pinsir, too) and survive 3 Night Shades or something. Rest goes to SDef for absorbing special hits.

Accelgor @ Damp Rock
Ability: Hydration
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SAtk / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Rain Dance
- U-turn
- Bug Buzz
- Final Gambit

Accelgor helps me here with my slight Fire Weakness and it also sets up Rain for Qwilfish. Max Speed outruns base 80 Scarfers too.

Rain Dance helps. Alot. It prevents Venomoth from setting up on me thanks to Hydration, and Liligant too. U-turn means a free switch + scout, to see if they wanna counter Qwilfish or not. Bug Buzz is STAB and Final Gambit is a little like U-turn, except I die.

EVs / Nature
Max HP Max speed. No big deal.

http://dialgafans.pytalhost.de/Front/211.gif
Qwilfish @ Air Balloon
Ability: Swift Swim
EVs: 60 HP / 252 Atk / 196 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Swords Dance
- Waterfall
- Return
- Poison Jab

Ah... Because Rain is SO abusable... Everywhere...

Swords Dance because my attack needs a little boost. Waterfall + Rain + STAB = 2.25x Effective... ish. Return makes Water / Normal and Poison Jab is a secondary STAB move.

EVs / Nature
Max attack for a reason. Flop around hard as possible. 196 Speed outruns scarf Alakazam, which is all I need. 60 HP for fun, joy, and laughter. xD

Murkrow @ Eviolite
Ability: Prankster
EVs: 252 HP / 8 Def / 248 SDef
Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk)
- Taunt
- Perish Song
- Mean Look
- Roost

Murkrow. He stops Venomoth, Gorebyss, etcetcra blah bleh.

Taunt is good for Baton Passers. Priority Taunt exists even in RU, ya know. Perish Song messes up chains. Mean Look traps stuff and lets me actually KO Stuff, and Roost helps me recover HP.

EVs / Nature
Murkrow. Max HP for upping that poor stat. 248 SDef gets me to 300 Special Defense, highest I can go (252 gets me to 301... No difference lol), and 8 Defense rounds out 508. EVs.

http://dialgafans.pytalhost.de/Front/106.gif
Hitmonlee @ Life Orb
Ability: Limber
EVs: 16 HP / 252 Atk / 240 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Mach Punch
- Sucker Punch
- Rapid Spin
- Close Combat

Hitmonlee is my Spinner for... Spinning round and round. Yea. Also checks Sharpedo for me... And stuff.

Mach Punch ruins stuff like Sharpedo. Sucker Punch is another priority used to break stuff. Rapid Spin spins away Stealth Rock, with 3 SR Weak Pokemon and all. Close Combat shuts down walls.

EVs / Nature
Currently I outspeed Adamant Pinsirs. Might up it a little, but Max attack ensures that Mach Punch KILLS ALL. 16 HP is leftover.

Changes: Yellow

Win / Lose since last edit: 0 / 0

:(

Well, I'll wait for Mind and Cloud then. They've played RU so they'll know something. I think I get walled by Steelix, but Pinsir, Hitmonlee and Final Gambit got it mostly covered. I officially hate having Rain + Steel issues :x

Thanks for being the first poster though :P

Priority Taunt exists even in RU, ya know.

I feel like that is directed at me ._.

Well you didn't really mention a problem with him, but I'm going to suggest an electrode over accelgor for setting up rain dance. He has quite a bit more bulk, he's not weak to stealth rocks and he can even thunder everythang with 100% accuracy, he can explosion in case of venomoths coming in. Which even with the nerf in 5th gen it still is pretty decent. And he has volt switch for the same purpose as u-turn.

Also,don't worry about the sash, I haven't seen many super effective leads against pinsir. The most common leads are people trying to set up quickly.

I did think about Electrode. But I had a battle yesterday that changed my mind.

Accelgor used Rain Dance!
The Foe's Lilligant used Sleep Powder!
Accelgor's Hydration cured it of it's status!

Whereas Electrode just... Falls asleep -.-

I also find that Final Gambit saves me from Quagsires and the like. OHKOs much of the RU Sweepers, and leaves most RU walls with ~10% HP. Then Qwilfish comes in and they just run since they can't Toxic it xD

Plus Electrode's Thunder isn't as useful in the case where I need to KO something and it isn't raining. I just find Accelgor to be that much useful. Oh, also the fact that it dies to everything just means that Qwilfish comes in sooner :P

Btw Explosion got SERIOUSLY Nerfed to the point where it doesn't KO much, especially from Electrode. Even Thunder will do more damage :P
So, YO POINT ISH INVALID.

Meh, it was nerfed but it still has uses. And I just read the hydration thing right after I posted.

Lol. I remember now that I'm very reluctant to changes like this :P
But Explosion got seriously nerfed. I mean, you can use it on something like Azelf, but Electrode has base 50 Attack. It's not gonna put a dent in something anytime soon.

Lul, I thought it was special attack >.> That might be why it sucked, you win this round sir.

OK I talked it out with Cloud. Mean Look goes over FeatherDance on Murkrow. Cuz Quagsire stops me and I need to do damage on that guy.

Edit: Air Balloon on Qwilfish helps me set up. SHOWERING RULES!
Edit2: Wait... Means I can't absorb Toxic Spikes? Meh only Hitmonlee is actually vunerable to Toxic Spikes anyway. Lum Berry, Hydration, Flying, Poison, Steel. Yay
