-1 4 Atk Tera Psychic Deoxys-Attack Superpower vs. 252 HP / 96 Def Incineroar: 190-224 (48.2 - 56.8%) Incineroar can switch in and never be 2HKOed, at least without Helping Hand which still doesn't OHKO and may still not 2HKO if it has Sitrus Berry. Incineroar also checks Indeedee with Knock...

Deoxys-Attack: Do Not Ban

I have played against DOU ladder teams built around Accupressure. Those matches become either match-up based, like auto-losing to Sacred Sword, or just based on whatever dice rolls happen with Accupressure. Those matches were uncompetitive, and it was comparable to Moody when it could boost...

:Deoxys-Attack: and :Indeedee-F: to Tier 2. Putting these both together, since Deo-A only operates at Tier 2 level with Indeedee-F, and I feel that their combined weight are worthy of Tier 2. Possibly Deo-A to Tier 1. Also the fact that we're actually suspecting Deo-A for being too strong and...

Latios was banned from DPP OU last month. I would recommend replacing all mentions of Latios with Latias.

Can you explain further? You'll need more information to justify why Wake should be moved up than simply "it can be used more that others in the same tier." Quoting the DOU leader:

I've seen multiple posts stating that Magikarp would be broken if it had Tatsugiri's Commander ability. Which makes good sense, given that the Pokemon is "off" the field once Commander activates. Such a trait in my opinion would inherently break almost anything with it. Do you disagree? In...

I know it's past QC, but Atk IVs should not be lowered to 0 alongside Mortal Spin.

Brief thoughts: I am not opposed to testing Dark Void in SM DOU, on the basis that it may not be broken (over dominates the metagame) or uncompetitive (makes battle outcomes too unreliant on skill, such as overly reliant on luck). Regardless of whether it is broken or not, I do believe it will...

Landorus Bear got banned pretty quickly and we have rapid-Bear being around far longer in the metagame; don't really get why people care so much about banned Mons.

Kyurem-Black

Kyurem-B. I suspect I stand alone here. I feel that many of the Crown Tundra metagame threads were in part because of Kyurem-B (KB), too many to consider meer coindence especially given DD KB's reputation of mandating answers for or else losing. It was partially responsible for the popularity...

I've got a feeling that that this team originated earlier than you thought :P

A very beginner's guide to selecting items, created by me: There are two options: 1) check out the Smogon analyses for said Pokemon, and use said recommended set which includes items 2) a rough guideline for choice of items: If said Pokemon is frequently attacking and does not care excessively...

I don't disagree with the bolded text regarding Flash Cannon, but the first use of it seems out of place. Perhaps it should be moved to after the next bold statement, with a note that it should take Eruption slot if used with Protect (Choice Heatran typically uses Flash Cannon as its 4th move...

If Zapdos-G had two rankings of 5, two of 4 and one 3, wouldn't it be moved up to 4 instead of remaining at 5? The median value is 4, and is equivalent to two "stay in 5" and three "move up a rank."
