scwizard's first RMT
I've been playing this on Shoddy. It's actually been winning which has surprised me since I'm not that good. Didn't see much of a lot of pokemon though. The best part is when I have been losing it's because I've made mistakes and switched into the wrong pokemon for instance. For example switching in Raichu when the opener is Gyarados instead of Garchomp.
Umbreon @ Leftovers (F) Impish EVs: 120 hp, 252 defense, 136, special def *Taunt *Moonlight *Mean Look *Baton Pass Charizard @ Choice Scarf (M) Modest EVs: 252 sped, 252 special atk, 4 defense *Overheat *Air Slash *Hidden Power (grass) *Focus Blast Froslass @ Focus Sash (F) Timid EVs: 252 speed, 252 special atk, 4 defense *Ice Beam *Shadow Ball *Thunderbolt *Destiny Bond Raichu @ Salac Berry (M) Adamant EVs: 252 speed, 252 attack, 4 defense *Fake Out *Volt Tackle *Endure *Reversal Forretress @ Leftovers (M) Timid EVs: 252 hp, 56 defense, 200 special def *Stealth Rock *Spikes *Rapid Spin *Explosion Garchomp @ Choice Scarf (M) Adamant EVs: 252 speed, 252 attack, 4 special def *Crunch *Earthquake *Outrage *Stone Edge I admit I have a strong bias towards Umbreon. I don't feel like explaining myself. It's not that complicated. Garchomp = physical sweeper, charizard = special sweeper etc. It's probably not the best team considering how little experiance I have, but I don't think it's too terrible because unlike the other teams I've made it can win. |
Hey I have to admit, you've got a nice team going there, but Charizard is gg'ed easily by stealth rock you know, so I suggest swapping that for something else like Gengar or Alakazam, I know you've got a spinner but it just doesn't feel right

You'll probably have some problems with Choice Specs Starmie. Might not be a common threat, but it's an extremely big one. |
I used to have wish. Experience made me change it. Umbreon kept dying when I used wish. With moonlight and taunt Umbreon can pwn anything holding life orb.
Charizard needs the speed to outpace the huge amount of 110 and 120 base seed stuff people use. If I'm OHKOing everything what's the point of specs. @Timid ghost: Your 100% right, that I just got pwned because I wasn't timid. Changing atm. Having both special and physical doesn't work generally. I might try it though but not now. I'll start paying attention to the context I use volt tackle and see how many times it kills me. @Foretress: Your right on the EVs it's turning out. I tried Gyro Ball and it didn't work for me. Explosion has worked really well though. It works well enough that many many people run the exact same moveset I do. I would run gyro instead of stealth rock if I had another stealth rock person, but I don't. Hmm, once EQ on a Foretress killed one of my guys. I could try that out over explosion. I don't think EQ can OHKO PorygonZ though :D @Stealth rock pain: Yup, I won't deny that. I've lost games because of it. I want a fast and powerful special sweeper that can shoot fire. It doesn't need to be stabbed. Neither Alakazam nor Gengar can do that (fire punch doesn't count). |

Magmortar @ Choice Scarf Ability: Flame Body EVs: 4 HP / 252 Spd / 252 SAtk Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk) - Fire Blast - Focus Blast - Thunderbolt - Hidden Power (Ice) Better Sp. Attack, better choice of attacks compared to Charizard. Oh and one more thing, be on the lookout of Choice Banded STABed Earthquake Attackers. |
Hmm, there was one battle where I was just barely outspeeding everything then OKHOing it. In this last battle though choice specs would have helped.
Let me make char modest for now and see how that improves things. I really think it'll get outsped like crazy though without scarf. Explosion has style >_> It also pwns togkiss. EDIT: I'll give Magmortar a shot in a few. Does Gyroball really OHKO Porygonz? |
no, i hope gyroball doesn't ohko porygon z ._.
then again, i'm the kinda fool who runs his scarf porygon z w/ near max hp, so what do i know. your team is gonna have major troubles with just about any random sandstorm team. |

Froslass is timid now. I fixed that already.
It used to be dragonpulse, but I found I never used it. I have tons of other answers to dragons. I had no answers to Swampert though. I'll also fix the nature on foretress. I don't get what people have against it exploding though. It keeps killing stuff for me. I guess you didn't notice stuff had choice scarf, that's the only reason you'd recommend swords dance. @Unscarfing Charizard: Tons of stuff will stone edge it if it loses its scarf. Also people think they can outspeed it and they can't giving me nice kills :) |
thePlaya...
Recommending charcoal = no. The 10% boost does very little, making all those items a waste. Also, what kind of idiot leaves forry in against fire types? Heracross and electivire can give this team problems... |
Scarf Revenge Killer Chomp is this
[email protected] Scarf Lonely Nature 252 ATT / 224 SPEED / 36 DEF - Outrage - Fire Blast - Earthquake - Stone Edge Just make sure you take out steel types and put a stop to focus Sash abusers with Stealth Rock and Spikes before you use Outrage, thats best left for late game sweep. Fire Blast is for Skarmory/Random steels etc. It doesnt need max speed with Scarf it reaches 444 speed with 224 evs in speed which is enough. |

If your going to say something like that regardless whether your right or not if you don't say why I have no idea what to do to fix these problems. Why do those pokemon give me problems, why does sandstorm give me problems? That kind of advice is completely useless without the whys. |

This is the kind of team that is completely destroyed by SkarmBliss, you have no Mixed Sweepers
Use at least one, it's always for the best |

Focus Punch, Thunderbolt/Ice Beam/Flamethrower, Dark Pulse/Crunch and Substitute = Mixed lol |
Quote:

Fire Punch = Physical
Thunderbolt = Special Ring a bell? =D |

I need to put that in all my posts, since all my references are to 3rd gen, as much as I try for that not to happen. |
This team doesn't have Jirachi, and those are rare

But anyways, Vire lays a supereffective shot on 4 of your pokemon, and they can't really take the hits either. Heracross (scarfcross edition) outspeeds about everything and lays hard hits on most of them. CBcross...nothing you have can really counter it, though not much can. It'll nail even forry with some tough damage. |
I think I just accidentally replaced Froslass with Weavile lol.

That my team is different now.
@APCW: What makes your advice useless is that I have destroyed every electrivire I've come across. Against SkarmBliss The idea is to trap them with taunting umbreon. I haven't hit SkarmBliss yet though. |
