Overview:
-SPORE

EVs: 248 HP / 28 SAtk / 232 SDef
Calm Nature
- Spore
- Giga Drain
- Clear Smog
- Hidden Power Ice / Stun Spore

-with great special bulk it can manhandle rain teams and take on fighting types with resistance
-can check a ton of stuff with its massive bulk
-spore, sleep it great
-giga drain is manatory stab
-clear smog for breloom and to get rid of boosts on a lot of stuff
-hidden power ice for dragons, landorus, and gliscor
-stun spore can be useful on more offensive teams to cripple things after a spore

-the evs give great special bulk to take on Keldeo
-28 special attack evs allows it to break Keldeo's sub after 2 calm minds
-move physical bulk can be used from 30-76, 76 allows it to take 2 +2 bullet speeds from Breloom, in the sand, after rocks
-black sludge it great for rotom, but be warned that it can be used against you if Amoonguss goes down
-sludge bomb is just weaker than a super effective HP ice, its strongest move to hit everything else, and can outright 1HKO breloom
-HP fire can be used to Ferrothorn, Forrytress, and Scizor if need be
-slowbro makes a great partner taking on dragons and strong physical attackers, while taking on breloom and special attackers for Amoonguss
-your going to need something else for every other other special attacker that isn't a water type
-with no recovery outside of switching, a spinner is advised

Other Options:
-physically defensive if you need something for Terrakion and other stuff
-toxic to cripple other stuff
-synthesis heals... but this is used vs rain
-seed bomb avoids any keldeo calm mind shenanigans
-venoshock if you have toxic spikes support.. naw its terrible don't use it

Checks and Counters:
-pokemon with sleep talk
-chansey, blissey, and don't care about being asleep, take any attack
-if you don't mind it being asleep: magnezone, Latias, Heatran, Ferrothorn, Forretress, Skarmory, Ninetails, Jirachi
-Infernape, Ninetails, Volcarona can scare it out fast
-Dragonite can come in because of lum berry most of the time
-Ferrothorn, Forretress, Skarm, and Deoxys-D set up all over it
-goth fucks over

Ill leave this open for a few days since I plan on using this as an example, then locking it and making a new thread.

spot anything stupid

[Pants]

celebi cannot take 3 clear smogs and it wont do much to it unless its a sp. def set, so i wouldn't consider it a direct counter.

also, shadow tag goth does wonders on it with tauntCM

[Kirby]

yeah about Celebi

uh is that released

I bet it will fall directly to UU, but still, uh

[Pants]

its released in BW2, and you always have to consider UU's in OU (amoongus is UU for example)
