  • ITT: I don't have six Pokemon because I don't know what to lead with. If it really bothers you, I'll just add a ******** Erufuun lead, but that won't help anyone.

    Of the Pokemon I really want to run are Yadoran, Metamon, and Kairyu. I tried to mix in some newer faces, but I really don't feel they fit completely. If I use Urgamoth / Dragonite, I feel like I need a Rapid Spinner, but I don't know who fits that role well. Also, I feel like making Dragonite a Phazer instead of a dancer, but I'm not sure how that would work out.

    Awkwardly, I also am thinking about Mischievous Heart Sableye.

    Mischievous heart Sableye is just awesome. I like this set:

    Sableye @ Sticky Barb / Iron ball etc (insert bad item here, I choose sticky Barb)
    Mischievous Heart
    252hp 252def 4spe
    ~ Trick
    ~ Will-O-Wisp
    ~ Recover
    ~ Trickery

    yea not many physical sweepers like to face this. After you wisp, many will set up DDs or SDs, so Trickery will wreck them. I'm pretty sure it isn't affected by the attack drop from burn
    (It's a dark move that increases when the opponents attack is high)

    Hp grass has almost no uses I can think where bug buzz doesn't outclass. Even on something like Kerudio, with stab and more power, bug buzz is probably better. use like hp ground for Heatran or ice for drags.

  • Doryuzu fits in as a Rapid Spinner:
    -Swords Dance
    -Rapid Spin
    -Earthquake
    -Rock Slide
    Nature: Jolly/Adamant
    Item: Balloon/Leftovers/Life Orb
    EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe
    Ability: Sand Throw/Mold Breaker

    Mischievous Heart Sableye is also a good lead, though.
     

    Skip Shot

    I'm back. I think.

  • on urugamoth go with either HP Ground/Rock or Psychic or Windstorm (aka Gale) over HP Grass, which really accomplishes nothing on Urugamoth

    also Borutorosu (Voltolos) makes a good anti-lead as does Frozen World Kyurem if you want to try them
