So I wanted to make a (not ass) stall team, but I'm still shit at team building so attempts to make one have not been so good. The below is what I have at the moment, but like almost every team I make I have no idea if it's any good and I'm having trouble filling in the last slot.
Venusaur-Mega @ Venusaurite
Ability: Thick Fat
EVs: 248 HP / 96 Def / 144 SpD / 20 Spe
Bold Nature
- Giga Drain
- Sludge Bomb
- Synthesis
- Hidden Power [Fire]
After sorta dropping out late XY/early ORAS this thing kinda became good again. It handles a number of common threats fairly well like Keldeo (they never run HP Flying anymore), Azumarill, Mega Altaria, basically every other Grass type, Hippowdon, and a few other things. It also handles Mega Diancie ok which is good because I don't wanna get shit on by that either. While Hidden Power Fire is good for Scizor/Ferrothorn I wonder if perhapsHP Ground Earthquake would be better to lure Heatran in?
Heatran @ Leftovers
Ability: Flash Fire
EVs: 248 HP / 192 SpD / 68 Spe
Calm Nature
- Lava Plume
- Taunt
- Flash Cannon
- Stealth Rock
Heatran more or less shuts down Clefable, a 'mon that I've come to find very annoying as of late and wanted something to fuck it over with. Also absorbs Toxic and burns, cripples walls with Taunt, is a Lati switch-in if they lack Earthquake, and provides the mandatory Stealth Rock.
Tentacruel @ Black Sludge
Ability: Liquid Ooze
EVs: 248 HP / 216 Def / 28 SpD / 16 Spe
Timid Nature
- Scald
- Rapid Spin
- Acid Spray
- Toxic
And then put in Tentacruel to complete a FWG core while also getting a spinner and something to absorb Toxic/Toxic Spikes with. Though I'm not sure if I should roll with it or go back to Reflect Type Starmie because Tentacruel lacks Recover and is Ground weak, and Reflect Type is pretty nice.
Clefable @ Leftovers
Ability: Unaware
EVs: 252 HP / 164 Def / 92 SpD
Calm Nature
- Moonblast
- Wish
- Protect
- Heal Bell
Clefable serves the purpose of hindering set up sweepers via Unaware while passing Wishes to Heatran and Tentacruel, who lack a recovery move and so appreciate the Wish support, and it more or less counters Mega Sableye. Fairy's also just a good type.
Gliscor @ Toxic Orb
Ability: Poison Heal
EVs: 244 HP / 192 SpD / 72 Spe
Careful Nature
- Earthquake
- Knock Off
- Roost
- Swords Dance
Have Gliscor in the 5th slot since it provides much needed Ground and Electric immunities, while having some offensive presence with this set. Dunno if it's a good idea though since Clefable has Heal Bell.
Atm a few issues I can see with the team is stuff like Bisharp (pretty much sweeps the team at +2), Mega Slowbro (no good switch-ins besides Clefable, who doesn't wanna get burned and doesn't outstall it anyway), and Mega Zard (it's Mega Zard). And there's probably more than that. So yeah this probably ain't too good but might as well see what y'all have to say....
