In ORAS OU, what is a good speed tier for Trick Room?

Feb. 21, 2015



Basically, what’s the maximum speed a Pokemon for Trick Room should have? I know the lower speed, the better, but what’s the highest this low speed can go? (If that makes sense.)

These Pokémon are largely favored on Trick Room teams due to their naturally lower base Speed, allowing them to move before faster Pokémon under Trick Room conditions. Most of them have had their Speed lowered further by a negative Nature and a 0 Speed IV in order to optimize their effectiveness in Trick Room. ~Nugget Bridge

So basically you click the above link, then scroll down to ‘Trick Room Zone’. It has a handy chart of almost all Pokémon with Speed stats usable in TR, as well as what IVs and EVs are required, as well as if they need a negative or neutral Nature.

Note that the ‘Max Speed’ section is set for level 50 (which is the level format for VGC) and not 100 (the level format for 99% of Smogon), but the principal is the same.
