Oh snap. A mono poison team!
Yes, a mono poision team that's had some great success in beating OU teams in shoddy.
The Crew: http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfsb/dpmfsb094.png http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfsb/dpmfsb110.png http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfsb/dpmfsb073.png http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfsb/dpmfsb452.png http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfsb/dpmfsb003.png http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfsb/dpmfsb317.png Changes to the team are bolded. http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmbsa/dpmbsa094.png Gengar (♂) @ Choice Specs Ability: Levitate EVs: 4 HP/252 Spd/252 SAtk Timid nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Shadow Ball - Focus Blast - Thunderbolt - Hidden Power [Ice] Standard specsgar. No hypnosis because I have better sleep moves on this team. http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmbsa/dpmbsa110.png Weezing (♂) @ Leftovers Ability: Levitate EVs: 252 HP/172 Def/84 SAtk Relaxed nature (+Def, -Spd) - Will-o-wisp - Pain Split - Explosion - Thunderbolt Gyara counter pretty much. Enough Defense EVs to hit 350. Needed a little extra Sp.Atk Evs for a Thunderbolt though. http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmbsa/dpmbsa073.png Tentacruel (♂) @ Leftovers Ability: Clear Body EVs: 196 HP/44 Def/96 SAtk/172 SDef Calm nature (+SDef, -Atk) - Toxic Spikes - Rapid Spin - Ice Beam - Hydro Pump Pretty standard moveset for Tentacruel, not so standard EV spread I don't think. Lol. My Spinner/Spiker. http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmbsa/dpmbsa452.png Drapion (♀) @ Leftovers Ability: Sniper EVs: 252 Atk/68 Def/188 Spd Jolly nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Night Slash - Cross Poison - Swords Dance - Earthquake Psychic resist. Very helpful on a mono poison. Lol. Night Slash/Cross Poison for STAB and Sniper hax. Knock off for support, although I may replace it with Earthquake. http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmbsa/dpmbsa003.png Venusaur (♂) @ Leftovers Ability: Overgrow EVs: 196 HP/44 Def/16 Spd/252 SAtk Calm nature (+SDef, -Atk) - Energy Ball - Sludge Bomb - Sleep Powder - Leech Seed Fun stuff here. Shuffle between Sleep Powder/Leech Seed, especially in the face of Blissey. Makes a nice Breloom counter as well. http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmbsa/dpmbsa317.png Swalot (♂) @ Leftovers Ability: Liquid Ooze EVs: 252 HP/72 Atk/12 Def/172 SDef Impish nature (+Def, -SAtk) - Earthquake - Curse - Ice Punch - Pain Split Yes. It's a freaking Swalot. No lies. I found out that Swalot had an interesting moveset, and it works pretty good. Makes for a good Celebi counter, since most don't run Psychic. Sad part is that Swalot doesn't get a good STABed physical attack. I may switch to Calm Nature. |
I have a Mono Poison-type Team of my own and I love it. All of them look good except for Swalot. Muk pulls off that set A LOT better. Has better overall stats and movepool.

Pretty solid though. I mean, it's a mono team, so judging by those standards, it's pretty good. |

who DOESN'T love muk? Well, who didn't before ash caught one? lol
Weezing takes EQ though, and psychic resists are awesome. and guess he has one...I know nothing about drapion, so yeah ;) |
Muk doesn't have Earthquake or Pain Split.
:[ I may do HP Grass on Tentacruel, but not over Toxic Spikes. If anything, Ice Beam. Toxic Spikes is always nice to have. ;o |
Well, just so bulky waters don't totally lol at you, and water absorbers are a pain. you can always switch though ;) BTW, Weezing > CBmence.
|
But you need Ice Beam in there somewhere. Most people expect HP Ice from Gengar, and since it's built to take an EQ, it can Ice Beam most dragons.
|
Yea, Weezing takes most of Mences attacks like a pro. ;o
And I put Hydro Pump over Surf just because Tentacruel doesn't have good special attack. |
Well, with Swalot's stats, he may not be able to survive a hit to Pain Split. X.x;
|
Swalot.. Well.. Can't stand it's ground in OU's. Vileplume can be an option for a cleric. :P
Vileplume (F) @ Leftovers ** Fergie Trait: Chlorophyll EV's: 244 HP / 136 Def / 128 SDef Calm / Sassy Nature - Sleep Powder - Stun Spore / Toxic - Aromatherapy - Energy Ball / Sludge Bomb. :P |
Ironically, Vileplume can't do crap in OUs either :/

Swalot gets 404 HP, so it does take a hit. Normally I curse once or twice, then Pain Split. It works better than I planned.
I don't need a cleric as of yet, but if I do, Vileplume is a good option. Quote:
;o The only status I worry about is burn on Drapion/Swalot. But WoW is so easy to see coming. Lol |
hmmmmmmm...............i say this is a weak team.......

Again, stop with the spam. One more post like that and I'm warning you. And stop surpassing the 25 Character Limit.
Muk has more HP. X.x; I go with Muk @ Black Sludge / Leftovers Nature: Careful Trait: Sticky Hold EV Spread: 252 HP / 24 ATK / 100 DEF / 134 SPDEF Poison Jab / Gunk Shot / Shadow Sneak Fire Punch / Focus Punch Curse Rest |
I like Swalot a lot better. :/
Earthquake/Ice Punch has a lot more coverage, plus he doesn't have to worry about being asleep for 2 turns. Liquid Ooze is also what makes it such a great Celebi counter. |

Also, I am amazed you said it can't do crap in OU. |
Deep breaths sims. Deep breaths. You know what he meant. In the right hands, it's usable but for the most part, it can't compete in OU compared to others who fit its role. Just relax. It'll be okay.
