Hustle Zweilous packs a huge punch (Its attack can get higher than Haxorus'), but not learning Hone Claws or even Dragon Claw is a huge blow. Its outrage absolutely rapes the metagame though, and a scarf, wide lens or eviolite set could possibly work quite well in the metagame, especially with...

There's nothing Chansey can do against a 101HP substitute, and many, many pokemon in UU that can take great advantage of them (Stallrein comes to mind).

If we ban snow cloak, will that make Beartic an uber?

Stunfisk is a beastly tank and isn't outclassed by anything. Evo stone scyther also looks very, very powerful and will probably be BL'd at the very least.

There should be a mention in the OP of limiting saves. Being able to simply restart from a save whenever a pokemon dies is really taking away a lot of the difficulty and tension. A rule that I always follow (even in normal games) is that I am not allowed to turn the gameboy off without saving. I...

Mew and Latios are UU on the PO server IIRC, so probably them. Bisharp looks like it could very well be a major player in the Uber tier. At very least it's a hard Mewtwo counter. There's not much Lugia and Giratina can do about it either, and with good prediction you can get an SD on the switch...

Are tiers going to outlined any time soon? I understand why standard probably won't get any soon (as every new released DW pokemon can significantly change the metagame), but what's stopping Dream World from getting tiered up?

I understand the OHKO ban for luck reliance reasons, but why can't they do it by changing the base accuracy to 0 instead of banning the moves outright? There's no luck involved in strategies like Mind Reader+Sheer Cold Articuno or having a Machamp Partner in doubles, and they were clearly...

If you don't outspeed CS Jolly Machamp and you aren't sturdy, you won't survive on the street.

Switch Dusknoir in on a High Jump Kick and Shadow Sneak the other 50% away. I suppose that's a Blaziken Counter, but it requires prediction (not very difficult prediction though).

Also, Max Def Impish Scyther is a beast. One time it survived a Heracross' stone edge and KOd it with aerial ace (it may have roosted the previous turn, I'm not sure). It's probably not strategically optimal, but that scyther has got me quite a few wins, many of them ragequits. In fact, that...

Again, is there a spreadsheet with all 649 pokemon on it?

Damn, gamefreak saw it coming. Could someone test overhead throw? I doubt it would work, but maybe with the whole ghost immunity thing it might. If so the only pokemon who are immune to that are weak to thief (or leperadusu's STAB dark attacks for a single cat team), so it's still viable...

Persian and Purugly are also good candidates for other assisters. Persian gets technician on the dragon tail, purugly has decent attack, and they're both damn fast. For the weavile set, it would be worth adding Thief for a decently strong STAB attack. Ambipom gets technician covet, so...

Could I have a link to a spreadsheet with all 649 pokemon on it? The one in the sticky only has B/W pokemon, and no dream world abilities or base stats for NFE pokemon.

The problem there is it that assist has a 50% chance of using spikes or stealth rock, and during that time you're vulnerable (or they could put a sub up and ruin you). Dragon tail and dragon tail alone is probably the best option on such a team. Also Weavile is the fastest user of assist, and it...

This guy looks like it should have been Dragon/Fighting Speaking of which, Dragon Tail could be quite useful on it, with those defenses.

Gigear with pre-evo stone would probably do a better job with the support set, trading some attack and speed for much better defenses (it doesn't lose any HP) And you know a pokemon's movepool sucks when it doesn't learn any physical attacks for any type other than Steel and Normal (other...
