Let me know when you want to do it.

There are two ways to "farm" evo stones other than Fire/Leaf/Water, and they both suck. Either you grind secret levels in Super Training for them, or you luck out and roll them on a low % chance on your daily Inverse Battle--which is also coincidentally the only way in the game to obtain some of the "reduces super-effective x type attacks" berries that are situationally useful for battling.

I also remember Magnezone destroying Forretress and Scizor (during Gen IV).

Mind kind of blown of the depth of min-maxing in Pokemon, just by reading through this thread. So I ended up doing some research on Neoseeker and there was a big compiled list of Ubers, UU, UR, etc this big list. Can't understand why some of them are Uber and OU tier, like Wobaffett or Cloyster.
Also got a Rash Torchic, seems like a good nature? :D

no get adamant / jolly for torchic

Fuck, I just ran stat calculations on Ninjask wanting him to outspeed Choice Scarfed Azelf and Starmie and so I put 24 EVs into Speed since after Protect, I should outspeed them.
Then I realized I will probably mostly do level 50 battles and running calculations it seems that after 1 Protect I end up tying with Azelf / Starmie so I should have put 28 EVs into speed instead.
Then while I was typing this post I realized that Azelf won't be available until December so I got a lot happier Fuck Azelf. At least if I lose to Starmie in a game of chance, Starmie is a badass and original 150 and deserved it.

Secret IV training via the soccerballs and balloons. On my 5-6th Aegislash fight I got my dusk stone needed for Honedge. Otherwise I got like 3 hard stones and a couple heart scales from doing them too.

Also got a Rash Torchic, seems like a good nature? :D Most tiers, like OU and UU, are determined by usage. Pokemon like Scizor, Ferrothorn, Latias, and Gyarados are commonly used, thus are OU. Ubers is where Pokemon deemed too powerful or centralizing for normal competitive play are sent, like Kyogre and Speed Boost Blaziken.
Wobbuffet is pretty scary, since you can't switch out of it due to Shadow Tag locking you in. It can then Encore your attacks and insta-kill you with Counter or Mirror Coat. Unless you get lucky with a critical hit or something, Wobbuffet is almost guaranteed to kill one of your Pokemon.
Cloyster has access to an amazing boosting move in Shell Smash, and has Skill Link to ensure its Icicle Spear attack always hits 5 times instead of 2 to 5. It's also very bulky from the physical side and is a fantastic check to Dragon- and Ground-types.

I'm actually taking a break breeding, working on my pokedex, need those faster eggs. :D

Wobbuffet reached uber status in Gen 3 prmarily due to his ability to trap pokemon from switching out and using his bulk to kill them with Counter/Magic Coat (after locking you into doing the same move over and over with Encore)
Cloyster was OU in Gen 5 I believe due to his hidden ability Skill Link, which guarantees that those moves that can hit 2-5 times, always hit 5 times. If he gets a Shell Smash set-up, he can easily sweep by spamming Icicle Spears and Rock Blasts at the foe.

Honestly I see wobbufett dropping down to OU now that ghosts counter his existence. We will see I guess

Wobuffet has already been dropped from Ubers a while ago haha.

I really need to pay attention to the uber metagame I guess 
Still I don't see a place for him in OU either considering a people will be running gengar / trevnaught / gredinja with shadow sneak etc

It was BL in Gen 5.
It was only uber from Gen 3-4

She will trade you a Modest Synchronize Ralts with a Gardevoirite for literally anything. Go catch a Bidoof or something and get that Ralts.

yeah wobbuffet is BL, he's a little weak in OU even now he only has one set so it's not exactly hard to play around
