Wait, beast boost doesn't only affect Phero's speed? I just assumed it was a specific stat for each UB, like Kartana would always raise atk and Xurk always spAtk. So if you adjust EVs you could give, hypothetically, a +speed BB nihileho for example?

That's correct. It just boosts the one with the highest stat before modifiers (so burns/weather/paralysis or stat boosts don't affect what gets boosted). Celesteela can boost literally everything but speed.

Scarf Phero was a thing to make its speed lower by a point than any of the attacks, so beast boost became useful on Phero.

Yes. There's some gimmick set involving Kartana with Timid nature and like 17 attack IVs so its speed gets boosted after every kill instead

That or to bait out fire types so that it could OHKO with max attack, swords dance-boosted EQ. I think the moveset was something like leaf blade, EQ, dragon claw, and swords dance. Obviously, one flying type would, and did, fuck up its whole strategy.

unburden sceptile was actually ok in gen 5 OU. It checked rain and sand, the two best weathers, by being a crazy fast grass type that could threaten most things on both teams. Generally the gem sets were better than sash.

In this gen in the early OU I made a team around Unburden Sceptile, the core of Lele, Magnezone and Sceptile is good but sadly Hawlucha outclasses it.

>Magnezone and Sceptile is good
I'm going to have to try that, at least for my own game team. Good to see that a new SM bro (Magnezone; actually never raised a Magnemite line on my game team over 6 prior gens) and my old Hoenn bro work well together. I've been trying to put together a cross-generational bro team for a while, but so many of them (like my BW Zebstrika) end up being unfortunately useless outside of the main game plot.

What's the point of not running rock slide then? It literally counters every grass weakness other than poison.

Sub-Zero Slammer Donphan. The ice move was Ice Shard. Literally why? Mamoswine exists and does that sort of shit far, far better.

Soak+Toxic Alomomola on the same team as Soak+Toxic Pyukumuku.

Smeargle with Swords dance and Extreme Speed. No idea what the other moves were.

Physical Scarf Nidoking. This was in OU, like, a couple weeks ago.

normal looking HO team with stuff like Tapu Koko and Victini but all 6 of them had Sitrus Berry.

Slowking with Nasty Plot, Slack Off, Psyshock and Dragon Tail(I didn't even know Slowking could learn Dragon Tail). He tried to Dragon Tail my Mawile for some reason.

Not really weird , just dumb

I faced many people who used Moonblast on Sylveon and Mega Gardevoir instead of Pixilated Hyper Voice whenever I go to the low ladder last gen

And when I try to tell them that Hyper Voice hits harder with pixilate they'd tell me that Hyper Voice only has 90BP while Moonblast is higher
