An intresting point because even tangrowth is no match for rain sweepers such ass rotom-w, kingdra can potentially set up on rotom thanks to sub and 4x resistance to hydro pump and nothing will like taking a hit from the frail but powerful thunderous. At least tangrowrth would give the team more physical bulk and a way to deal with terrakion and jellificent.
i suggest trial and error
test out the following in the place of celebi
nidoqueen
tangrowth
and see how it turns out.

I really like Tangrowth, JVillzz I would think that would be first on the list of pokemon you check. Its really important that you test it out though. If you like Celebii see how it fairs and then throw in Tangrowth and see how it does. I know Celebii has a movepool, but I have battled the annoying Tangrowth in the past..lol

Thanks for the input guys! Sorry I've been pretty busy with school and stuff, but I have been playing here and there and Celebi is beast! I'm going to try tangrowth though and see if I like it better. I have run into a few problems tho. Especially CM Cresselia. Any suggestions?

the ebst answer to cress is tyranitar, if you want it extra dead, extra useless, scizor is good too, deoyxs D is like cress but much more common and much more threatening, i'd keep an eye out for this would be uber as he is the bulkiest pokemon in the ou tier while being the best user of hazards.

thank you for the input and help. I'm testing out tangrowth right now. Hasn't really hindered anything, but hasn't done anything beastly yet. But i'm going to keep trying to see what i can do with it.
