Yes, Yanmega is easily revenge killed from the likes of Scizor or Lucario with their blasted priority attacks and with the right prediction, someone can get a free SD while Yanmega Protects. The lack of movepool also does hurt it, but I still cannot see it in UU. Perhaps the usage dropped because of the reduction of Hypnosis's accuracy? Back in DP I recall it being OU and people spamming it everywhere. Not to say Yanmega is uncounterable (Honchkrow seems to do well against Yanmega although it cannot take repeated STAB Air Slash or Bug Buzz) but it seems to be quite a force in UU, always taking down at least 1 Pokemon before it falls.

<p><p><p><p><p>Kanto? Probably because of Gamefreak's fail thoughts... yeah I guess. Notable Pokemon from Kanto that are used in standards: Dragonite, Gengar, Alakazam, Machamp, Vaporeon, Starmie, some certain thunderbird whose name I will not mention due to its annoyingness... yeah...</p></p></p></p></p>

MSN/AIM/YIM/Trillian... I use all four, but mostly MSN. AIM sometimes but sometimes Trillian because AIM is very unstable. Now that I think about it MSN seems to crash sometimes too, but even so, it feels much better than AIM.

It is also a revenge killer... and it is pretty potent. Yanmega is one of those Pokemon that is potent in UU/BL... but multiple testings with it in the UU tier pretty much showed that Yanmega is very dominant in UU battling (just ask the many people in Shoddy, we've all had troubles with Yanmega even with Stealth Rocks around). Sure its offensive movepool is fairly shallow but Garchomp was pretty much the same and look what happened to him. Bug Buzz and Air Slash STAB is pretty potent, Protect gives it scouting abilities and a free speed boost and Hypnosis has a chance of putting its switch-ins (like Scizor or stuff) to sleep... although unreliable. That being said, I think Yanmega is too strong for UU (from massive personal experiences, not theorymoning)... the reason why it has been put in UU is because "HUR HUR ITZ TEH 4X STEALTH ROX WEAKZORS" and all. Sure it won't be completely dominating in OU, but it is able to take down many Pokemon in there, such as Azelf, Heracross, Celebi, and Infernape (believe it or not) and is a force in OU on its own. I can be wrong, but that is what I gather from using and trying to fight Yanmega itself (or me being extremely unlucky with Hypnosis always hitting me and it always criticaling me but whatever...) Umbreon in OU on the other hand... o_o I do not think it really belongs there. Easily Tauntable, Bug and Fighting weak, it really will not last long. I'm not saying it cannot work in OU, it can with the proper support, but usually it is Umbreon that is doing the support... and being Scizor/Heracross/Infernape/Lucario/Machamp weak and being Taunt bait is not pretty. =/ What dictates a tier is if it is too strong for something... it gets banned to the next level. Yanmega I think does break UU, and Umbreon seems to somewhat break UU as well... although it does not consistently perform well in OU (it does though if you can work it, I have done it), but Umbreon is too tough to take down in UU. Probably BL... but that is all I can say. It has no business in UU/NU... just promotes greater stall wars there which is annoying (as if Articuno was not enough already who actually has speed and has STAB Ice Beam)... Sure stuff like the Hitmons can take Umbreon, but then again, stuff like Blastoise can take down Tyranitar but is still UU for a reason. As for the UU tier itself... http://www.smogon.com/smog/issue3/featured_uu_rmt http://www.smogon.com/smog/issue3/uu_analysis Take a look at these Pokemon featured from the UU list. No longer do we see the Nidos or Blastoise or Vileplume but we see stuff that were former OU/BL dominating like Roserade (which seems pretty OU to me aside from being physically frail) and Milotic. What do you think has happened? =O

<p><p><p><p><p>Yeah... Kanto + Johto I guess. But I find it ironic... people complain about how weak Johto Pokemon are... but at the same time... some of the most powerful ones, like Heracross, Tyranitar, Scizor, Skarmory, Blissey, Porygon2... all come from Johto. Ugh... hmmm, I won't use Scizor =|</p></p></p></p></p>

<p><p><p><p><p>Level 70? Then the benchmark for Modest Mewtwo is 266 SpA and 208 Speed... that is what you want. Then you just train Mewtwo with 252 Gastly/Abra or 128 Haunters/Kadabras to make its SpA max out and 252 Pidgeys/Zubats/Spearows or 128 Pidgeottos to max out its speed. Just get it to have 266 SpA... and 208 Speed... because that is the max you can get from a level 70 Modest Mewtwo (if you don't care for the speed then you really don't need to reset too much)...</p></p></p></p></p>

Now all we need to do aside from getting the foreign language data later is to change those sprites into HGSS ones, right?

Head is a bit too big and the neck is a little too skinny on the upper section near the head. That Dragonair is going to have a hard time supporting its heavy head! =( But even so, I think it looks great. You just need to adjust the proportions and it will look awesome =)

Seems like rating this team is... done? I guess I will close this. If you are making a sand team RMT, then start a new topic.

Well, a hail team can be effective but you just shouldn't play with 6 Ice Pokemon. I blame Gamefreak for giving Ice a resistance to only Ice itself. My build isn't exactly perfect as there are glaring weaknesses, but feel free to experiment. So far it has been undefeated (you just have to play the cards correctly ) I have tried other Pokemon, like Articuno in a hail team. Surprisingly, if you can get around the 4x SR weakness, Articuno works really well. If you wanted to try a team of 6 Eeveelutions, you should try a Baton Passing team... but it falls to Toxic Spikes so quickly it is not funny (I have one).
