Ok I think This is the right thread to ask this:
I am making a UU team so far and need help with 2 pokemon
1st My Lead
I am currently trying
Bellosom
Calm
Leftovers
252 HP/252 Sp.Def/6 Def
Energy Ball/Leech seed/Sleep Powder/Sub
But its not really working and ideas on a better lead?
Also I need help on somthing Bulky to take Ice And Water hits and as a backup for fire hits
Now im running
Blastoise
Calm
Leftovers
208 HP/188 Def/ 114 Sp.Def
Counter/Mirror Coat/Toxic/Protect
it works pretty well in KO ing A Ludicolo from full health with Mirror coat and can take hits pretty well but Kinda dosent fill a slot and completley loses to miltank
Im thinking Surf >> Toxic but still not sure
Any Help On either?
Also Dose Skill Swap effect Shedinja And Spiritomb? Need this for an awsome double team strategy
Reason its not working is because you want something that actually accomplishes something as a lead. Bellossom is too slow and thus wont do much and will either be Taunt bait, wont stop the opponent from setting up (i.e Stealth Rock) or just flat out be ko'd and forced to switch. Id look into something that actually you know, does something when leading.
That Blastoise set is awful, no really it is lol. Counter + Mirror Coat are really gimmicky tbh. Blastoise's best Role is a Rapid Spinner and its a darn good one so id utalize that.
Blastoise (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: Torrent
EVs: 252 HP/176 Def/20 Spd/62 SDef
Bold nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Surf
- Rapid Spin
- Toxic / Yawn
- Roar / Ice Beam / Hidden Power Grass
Is its best set in uu.
It needs Surf for STAB, Rapid Spin removes entry hazards. 3 and 4th slots are up to you. Toxic or Yawn to cripple things or make them switch or fall to sleep. Last slot Roar forces switches and is cool with entry hazards to abuse. Ice Beam hits grass types and Hidden power Grass hits other water types such as Azumarril etc.
The evs ensure you outspeed all Rhyperior who Blastoise is an amazing counter to, whilst tanking hits on both sides well.
As for your skill swap question, no that does not work.
