Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Okay, so Quaggs and I did a bo5 that I won in 3 games but we decided to play the 5 games cuz it was super fun and I was supposed to be better at nfe and quags better in ZU.
Game1: DPP ZU. Winner: ktut https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen4nu-912509171
This was the first time I touched a tier where slaking is good. I saw ariados in lower ranks but then realized the only hazard remover was wartortle and that there was no real tspikes absorber in the tier, so I went with ariados+slaking+dusclops (spinblocking). Lairon helps dealing with all the normal types (guts raticate etc), tropius wincon, and pikachu breaks physical walls.
