also, Trick Room teams are really fun and challenging. everyone should try them out, some otherwise unviable Pokemon that are really badass like Gallade are absolute monsters under Trick Room. |

In the land of Ubers, there resides the most terrifying setup sweeper in the entire game. His set was given the name of Extreme Killer, due to his sheer sweeping potential. This set is Swords Dance ExtremeSpeed Normal Arceus. After a single Swords Dance, Arceus' STAB and Life Orb-boosted ExtremeSpeed has the ability to at the very least, 2HKO the bulkiest of Uber walls including Lugia and Giratina. He can't be revenge killed very easily either, due to his insane coverage and especially the +2 Priority of ExtremeSpeed. However, there is one Pokemon who was the perfect counter to this monster, immune to the notorious ExtremeSpeed and Fighting-type moves, and able to shut down this menace with its.. Priority Will-O-Wisp. Sableye. http://www.smogon.com/bw/pokemon/sableye/uber http://www.smogon.com/bw/pokemon/sableye/OU The same phenomenon happened during both the Mega Lucario and Mega Kangaskhan eras, and is still happening today with SD Aegislash, Bisharp, and all the other sweepers like Mega Pinsir too. Smogon still gives him his own OU and Ubers analysis. He still remains in the top 25 usage in Ubers for his ability to shut down every physical sweeper he wants, and is currently top 50 in OU usage above Terrakion, Salamence, Jolteon, Kyurem-B and Lucario, and based on this, will be considered OU this gen. For comparison's sake, Victini, the deadliest Trick Room sweeper in the game who boasts the single most powerful unboosted attack in the entire game bar Explosion, sits at 101st.

This close... I was so close to getting that Sableye and then the guy had to go grocery shopping. It's not too late though. I can still trade for it if I'm patient. EDIT: Nevermind. He wouldn't take it because it wasn't English. Who cares what language it's in. I told him it was an event Mew.

Frickin Dragonite is awesome. Just one use of Dragon Dance and I took 3/4 of Gliscor's health with a physical attack. EDIT: Holy crap. I love Aegislash too! I wiped out a guy's entire team of legendaries with just him and he recovered his full health by the end of the battle. |

I'm a little confused. I thought Rotom Wash was supposed to be a tank. Knock off took away half of its health.
