I think if I start playing Pokemon again, I'm gonna try out some of the Pokemon that I wanted to use on my White game but never got around to making (that Dragonite being one of them).

Yesterday my friend from another site said that I should start playing 5th gen RU. That got me interested since I think that most of the Pokemon that I normally use are RU anyway. I probably lose a few of my favorites to the UU tier but I don't think I'd have to change too much. The most appealing thing to me is that all the auto-weather starters are above RU, so people would either have to run old fashioned weather teams or not use weather at all. I hated how 5th gen OU turned into weather wars because it ruined what would have otherwise been a very varied metagame.

XD @ your ranking logic

lol i didn't make that up actually i'm in the 8th 'page' out of 391 :p
agreeing with weather ruining everything
and i think uu>ru myself, there are 50 uu pokes compared to 269 in ru so i imagine making a good well-rounded ru team would be much tougher
and you can use your fav ru pokes in uu <_<

I'm so bad at making teams though. Like, really, painfully bad. I hate doing it because I always feel so lost and I have trouble just finding a solid foundation for a team. Once I find something that works (like my 4th gen UU team), I stick with it for months or years at a time because I don't want to go through the team building process again.

Honestly, that's why I've entered the metagames so late for the past couple generations. I want to start playing again but then I realize that I have to build a new team so I don't bother. I think I need training in how to build a team correctly.

i suck ass at building teams too, most of my successful teams started with me wanting to use some pokemon and from there use pokes that resist its weaknesses and so on >_>
like this team, i wanted to use tenta and realized it works really well with rotom-heat and then i realized both get owned by rock so i added a rock resist and so on <_<
http://www.psypokes.com/dex/atktypeanalysis.php does wonders :D

edit: i like how i ended both sentences with and so on
and most of my shitty teams started with
physical sweeper
physical wall
special sweeper
special wall
wish/spinner
cleric/steel/dragon/ghost

This is my typical team building process:

1 Pokemon that I like (usually becomes my lead)
A couple more Pokemon that seem usable
"Oh, I have too many [physical/special] Pokemon, better add more off the opposite"
"Now I have 5 sweepers; I should probably add a tank of some sort"

*lose infinite battles*

I generally pick a couple of attackers that I want to use. I then basically go down various threat lists and try and make sure I can counter all/most of them by adding a few tanks/walls, coupled with certain movesets or abilities. I then look at the team more in terms of move-types, and seem to add the final 1-2 pogeys to cover these.

Cool batol by the way.
