Awkward Team, Need Help With Sets 'N Such
 
Alright, so I left my classroom to go to the bathroom, and when I got back my friend wrote this team on my notebook, and now I feel urged to make it.

I really need help with how to set it up. Since well, it's an awkward team and stuff. The only thing set in stone is the Pokémon, and the Item on the last one. Everything else is open to suggestion, since I'm at a total loss of where to go. X_X

EDIT: Ideas and such, which should've been here from the second I posted this, but I'm dumb and etc.[Put before solely so people might see my ideas prior to the blank slate of a team] :

I'd assume Weezing to be a Wall, and Magnezone as well, most likely. Magikarp could be a worthless pokemon, or maybe just use a Focus Sash and Flail all over the place, since it's going to go second, I'd guess. TTar = Sweeeper, clearly, Smeargle and Arceus I have no clue. I could use a FEAR set with Smeargle, but I feel that would be wasting another slot...even though Smeargle isn't the greatest of Pokemon, I want to get his money's worth out of it...and if FEAR is my best bet, I guess I'm using it. Arceus....I don't even know.


The Pokemon [In No Particular Order...]:


Magnezone @ ???, ???
???, ???, ???, ???
???
???
???
???


Weezing @ ???, Levitate
???, ???, ???, ???
???
???
???
???


Magikarp @ Focus Sash, Swift Swim
???, ???, ???, ???
Splash
Flail
Tackle


Tyranitar @ ???, Sand Stream
???, ???, ???, ???
???
???
???
???


Smeargle @ ???, ???
???, ???, ???, ???
???
???
???
???


Arceus @ Bug Plate, Multitype
???, ???, ???, ???
???
???
???
???



So yeah. The rest is debatable, I could use all the help I can get.

Thanks in Advance, although I'm feeling like I'll be ignored for planning an Arceus, or the fact that there's a Magikarp on the team, one or the other. X_X

I stopped reading after I saw Magikarp, don't waste our time.

Toothache November 7th, 2007 3:10 PM

The point of this forum is for you to post movesets, so we have a good idea of what you are trying to do with your Pokemon, what role they fit in the team etc, so we can rate and fix them.

PS: Lose Arceus and Magikarp, seriously

It was a joke team my friend set up for me, and I have some weird urge to make it. I figured maybe I'd get some help, although I normally don't go here...So I don't know most things. I saw some post similar to mine while lurking, so i figured I'd try it. Whatever, if it's wrong, someone delete it and such so I don't come off dumber than I already have.

But yeah, Pokemon line is not debatable, since that's what he wrote. I'd normally make my own stuff, But I'm at a loss with this team.

I'd assume Weezing to be a Wall, and Magnezone as well, most likely. Magikarp could be a worthless pokemon, or maybe just use a Focus Sash and Flail all over the place, since it's going to go second, most likely. TTar = Sweeeper, clearly, Smeargle and Arceus I have no clue.

If that helps at all.

Smeargle @ ???, ???

Changes in bold but seriously what are you thinking even for novelty Magikarp?????

Faceless* November 7th, 2007 3:30 PM

I stopped reading Magikarp O_o

Toothache November 7th, 2007 3:30 PM

Ok, with 10 base Attack Magikarp isn't gonna be doing anything, even with Flail. I suggest you at least use Gyarados, which is infinitely better and actually has a movepool. As for Arceus, he's too unbalanced for standard play, unless you are planning to play in ubers, in which case a complete rewrite of your team is in order.

ultranerd57 November 7th, 2007 3:30 PM

Hold on I think this is it:

[email protected]
???
252hp/ 138spdef/ 120def
Flame thrower
Pain Split
Explosion
Toxic

Probably gonna get corrected and couldn't remember nature

Or it might be a fun team for friends. Whatever the case, it is banned from standard play, but what you do in the privacy of your own home (Outside of Wi-fi) is ok.

Toothache November 7th, 2007 3:33 PM

Weezing is generally used as a Hazer

Weezing @ Leftovers
Trait: Levitate
EV: 252 HP / 240 Def / 16 SpAtt
Nature: Bold
Thunderbolt/Flamethrower
Haze
Pain Split
Will-O-Wisp

Thunderbolt for Gyarados, Flamethrower for steels.

Azonic November 7th, 2007 3:40 PM

Maybe next time, you can actually put some effort into making a team.

There are no movesets, no items. And for god's sake, you didn't even have time to look up Smeargle's ability!

And who puts Magikarp and Arceus on the same team? Let alone, any team?

I stopped taking this thread seriously when I saw Magnezone's moveset... THERE IS NONE.

It is clearly a fun team. Arceus is there simply to counterbalance how worthless of a Pokemon Magikarp is. That, and with it's type being forced to Bug, it doesn't have an amazing type Resistance and isn't going to be dealing a hell of a lot of super effective damage to everything.

ultranerd, thank you for actually assisting me as opposed to just pointing out legality issues, or how horrid of a Pokemon Magikarp is and saying scrap it.

I do feel that giving Smeargle a FEAR set will simply make 2 of my slots worthless instead of just the 1 with Magikarp...But at least I can count on FEAR KOing one pokemon for me. Dunno.

Again, guys, it IS just a fun team my friend whipped up, and I want to make it happen. This wont be used on WiFi in some Competitive Battle, I just want to get it the best it can get. So I turned to your expertise. Should've expected Resistance though, What with the Magikarp and Arceus. X_X

Shiraishi November 7th, 2007 3:43 PM

Bug Arceus is the standard Arceus for uber tier battles.

I was at a complete loss for words when I looked at the lineup. I Have no clue where to go with this, so I asked you guys. I realize it's a total jerk thing to ask for movesets and stuff, but I really had no freaking clue. Sorry for sucking at Pokemon. X_X

Anti November 7th, 2007 3:44 PM

you SHOULD expect resisitance. why are you wasting our time with a team you aren't even gonna use? Not to mention it has magikarp, which is (this makes me LOL) literally worse than CB blissey. Just so you know where we're coming from...

EDIT: Not to mention that you have the most uber pokemon and the game and the worst pokemon in history on the sqame team, makes it kinda funky...

No. The problem isn't Magikarp (which was a waste of time to post) & Arceus, its the fact that you took little to no effort in this team yourself. You could have at least jotted down some ideas. It seems like we're supposed to do ALL the work.

EDIT:If thats the case, go on "Request a team" thread. We do movesets there, too.

But this wont be used in uber tier battles, this will be used in superfun friend battles. And without 90% of Pokemon being Psychic or Dark outside of uber tier, Bug type isn't exactly a bonus. At least not in my eyes.

Faceless* November 7th, 2007 3:47 PM

Lol Arceus is in here? Now I REALLY need to go away >_>

Yeah, I threw down ideas I had and meant to include in my 2nd or 3rd post, since I realized I didn't write anything and I definitely should have, so that was a major flop on my part and I apologize, I'll fix it up a little.

I'm just not used to a team that's like, all over the place like this one is.

Yeah, that's why I'm kinda at a loss. But I did expect resistance. I WILL use this team, just not in a Competitive Battling sense, mostly with my friends, and I think if I can hold up even a LITTLE with this team it would be hysterical...which is why I turned to you guys. I do apologize for coming off as a big jerk who figured you'd make my team for me, though. I'm kinda...at a loss for ideas though. X_X

Faceless* November 7th, 2007 3:51 PM

You made this team with a Cheat Device obviously -_- It'll be closed soon

The forum is for competitive battling teams

Anti November 7th, 2007 3:51 PM

you know, the request a team thread might be a decent idea :) Urgh, use toothy's set for weezing. but really, just DON'T use maghikarp, unless it's for kicks, in which case I can lend you my CB blissey...

=x CB Magikarp

But really, whats the point of getting a team that you're never going to use?

And plus, how horribly unbalanced this team is.

I see no point of taking this thread further. -reports-

Team isn't made yet, I was asking for ideas. I haven't even bred Pokemon yet.

I'm stuck with the Pokemon lineup that's posted, I asked my friend for any negotiations and he said this is what I'm stuck with. Arceus was originally Poison-type, but then he said "Okay, Bug-type.". Request a team I figured would get the same response, and it's also compiled by one person. Having this post gives me ideas to absorb from all different kinds of people[who all think it's a waste of time, lol]

I will use the team, that's what you don't get. I just wont use it in the environment you're used to, but in a friendly one with...well..my friends. To see where it would stand against their team, and such. And for kicks and giggles, yaknow ?

Anti November 7th, 2007 3:57 PM

I'll, urgh, try my best...

All I know is that magnezone is best for loling at skarm. I belive magneton in 3rd gen carried HP fire or HP ice or something...lol, I can't think straight.

sims796 November 7th, 2007 3:59 PM

Well, we can either help, or not post. You may have started off as a tad irritating, but you were never rude. No point in everyone rudely saying how pointless this is.

Unfortunately, I have no experience with any of your pokes listed.
