Hi, I'm very new to competitive battling (as in, I've never done it before). Figured I'd try to practice some on Shoddy, see if it interests me in a while.
Having never done it before, there are probably tons of moves that I'll miss, so bear with me, and I probably have ideas that won't work in reality I'm also trying for a theme of all Pokemon being found in Kanto (Scyther is found in Kanto, evolves into Scizor, loophole ). Most of these are movesets from Smogon, so for these ones I'm checking to see if I have the right idea or strategy on them.
As you can probably tell from me wanting a team theme and whatnot, I'm not taking competition seriously. But, I do want a team that can function.
Just wanna say thanks in advance for anyone that helps! :)
Katrina (Kingdra) (F) @ Leftovers
Ability: Swift Swim
EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd
Adamant nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Dragon Dance
- Waterfall
- Outrage
- Rain Dance
Being only weak to Dragon, I hope to be able to toss up a Rain Dance, DD, then begin to sweep right on the spot.

Even if I have the right idea here, I'm sure it'll be a while before I can actually get this into practice ;)
EDIT: It says that new threads need to be approved my a moderator. Does that mean this thread is illegal, or does it mean a mod will just check on it later?
