    SM NU Doppelganger

    DOPPELGANGER Introduction: At first glance, this looks like a pretty simple variation of a very common build in NU, but the real point of interest is the sets. The team is built in a way so that almost every member is running a more uncommon set to catch opponents off guard, luring opponents...

    Sand Banned

    Or at least Gigalith is, but that doesn't rhyme. That said, all three members of the sand core (Gigalith, Sandslash, and Stoutland) should be removed from analyses as the latter two are no longer relevant either.

    IN RESPONSE TO 'Important Announcement about SM NU Alpha!'

    How we are being treated as the lower tiers is entirely unfair. We have operated under certain tier expectations for two months or so now, but because two or three higher up guys decided the metagame will be more "stable" now we have to wallow in ORAS NU for ONE MORE MONTH. erisia, who posted...

    SuMo Beta Tiers

    This generation, beta tiers were mostly handled one full shift at a time, only being allowed to start after the tier above it went official. But with so many official tiers this gen, this isn't really an option for gen 7. Under this system, PU has to wait just shy of a full year before it can...

    ORAS NU Decision

    Decision Introduction: It's been a long time since I last posted an RMT (in fact I haven't posted a single one in all of ORAS lol), which is mostly because I haven't liked or enjoyed any of my teams enough to make a full RMT since then. I don't happen to be the most innovative teambuilder in...

    Metagame ORAS NU Creative / Underrated Sets Thread

    Approved by Montsegur, taken over from Kavatika's original thread here Standard and common sets are generally effective. After all, that's why they're common and standard. But sometimes a less-common set can be effective. In fact, brand-new sets can be quite effective as well. This thread is...

    XY NU Oblivion

    Oblivion Introduction: With ORAS right around the corner, I figured I'd do one more quick RMT before the metagame changes immeasurably. It's not some trophy team that went undefeated through some massive tournament or whatever, but it's a fun team that uses some pretty underrated sets...
