kk sorry, btw this is madokas alt

Will look at this in just a moment. I have to look over the current NU rule and ban list just to consider your other options. Might take awhile.

thank u

@LightningAce11 @kirbymuncher
and @DragonPick are good battlers

Aw, thanks gifted. Unfortunately, I'm not well versed in NU. I only dabbled in OU, Ubers and VGC.

I assume NU is really bulky? You'd want some wallbreakers to help deal with defensive pokemon and keep the pressure on. Are there any megas available?

Mostly it's status effects and fire it seems, plus nfe eviolite things

Looks like it violates the item clause off the bat

Doesn't have a good momentum in pivoting option. You switch and then what, more bulk that needs moves to set up instead of ready to go meaning roar defeats your team since any defogger will probably be too high in tiers for NU to be useful

Why was I tagged? I know next to zero about competitive pokemon.

The lowest I play is RU. Sorry

I'm not an expert in NU, but your team looks pretty balanced.

However, watch out for Rotom-Mow(with Trick) and strong fighting types like Sawk/Hitmonlee. Once Sableye is down they can wreak havoc on your team.

I actually played a little NU since the last time you made an NU topic since I was curious what the meta is like.

The big thing I remember getting really annoyed about is that machamp is extremely strong and also pretty much everywhere. Your team also kinda folds to it even with sableye alive:

252+ Atk Guts Machamp Stone Edge vs. 252 HP / 4 Def Sableye: 226-267 (74.3 - 87.8%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
252+ Atk Guts Machamp Knock Off (97.5 BP) vs. 252 HP / 4 Def Sableye: 220-259 (72.3 - 85.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKO


unfortunately I have no idea how to solve this issue
---

I also feel like with a team this defensive you want some way of hazard control or maybe even try to use spikes as well? I dunno
