I need suggestions for three Pokemon on my UU team. I need a lead and 2 walls, one special and one physical. My three sweepers are NP Raichu, SD Scyther and a standard Hitmonlee. Any suggestions?

Physical Wall:
Steelix (M) @ Leftovers Ability: Rock Head EVs: 252 HP/120 Atk/136 SDef Relaxed nature (+Def, -Spd) - Earthquake - Stealth Rock - Gyro Ball/Explosion - Roar/Explosion Works out quite well if I do say so myself. Special Wall: Well Hypno is typically considered the best special wall in UU, but Grumpig definitely deserves some consideration seeing as it can Calm Mind and boost its special sponging ability. For that same reason you should also consider Clefable... Clefable can also run a pseudo-Blissey set. Lead: Butterfree? Worth a shot... accurate double powder and all. ... just go to Smogon for the rest of those movesets. :p |
Hey guys.
Could someone help me out with sets for Electrode, Kabutops, Lanturn and Dewgong on a Rain Dance team? If anyone has suggestions for the last two members or possibly replacing one of the above pokemon, I'm all ears. =) |

I'm wondering what a good moveset for a Togekiss would be (for competitive battling). I know I'd want Serene Grace and probably maxed out Sp. Attack to go with Air Slash, but then what else? I'm considering Flamethrower for Ice-types, and maybe Rest and Snore (the problem being that Snore adds another Normal-type attack). Then I think I'd have Salamence or Tyranitar with Earthquake for backup. Maybe U-turn would make sense, as I doubt I'll use too many moves other than Air Slash. Thanks in advance!

Good moveset for a SpecsVaporeon? I need to replace my terrible SpecsMilotic.
|
Vaporeon isnt meant to be a Specs'er. It's best as a Wish passer / Physical Wall.
Specs Kingdra works quite well though if you want a Specs Water poke... |
[email protected] Specs
Modest 252Def/252SpAtt/6Spd Surf Ice Beam HP Electric Hydro Pump/Wish Standard specs vaporeon iirc. |

But thanks for the moveset :) |
How is it illegal? 252+252+6 = 510. the 2 extra dont matter but there's nothing wrong in typind those
And if its Specs it should be Max Speed to make sure it gets a hit >> |
Quote:
252+252+6=510, which =Legal |
252/252/6 is legal, bro. You're allotted a max of 510 EVs, not 508.
EDIT: I am slow. |
What about my Togekiss moveset?

Togekiss @ Leftovers Ability: Serene Grace Modest Nature EVs: 252 HP / 152 SpA / 104 Spe - Nasty Plot - Roost - Air Slash - Aura Sphere Alternatively, for a Choice Specs set: Togekiss @ Choice Specs Ability: Serene Grace Modest Nature EVs: 64 HP / 252 SpA / 192 Spe - Air Slash - Flamethrower - Aura Sphere - Tri Attack/ Shadow Ball/ Hyperbeam (Use with extreme caution, may give opponent easy set-up time) |

[email protected]/Lum Berry Modest 252SpAtt/252Spd/6HP Air Slash Aura Sphere Roost Nasty Plot Alternatively you could strap on a choice item (Specs or scarf) and put flamethrower and either tri attack, shadow ball or HP ice over the two bottom slots. EDIT: Sniped :P EDIT EDIT: Ambients EV spread is better for the NP sweeper set btw |
Lol I beat everyone by one minute ^^
EDIT: Now i lose by 3 XD Dont worry Farasha, everyone makes mistakes :P For Malch: You can use the FlinchHax set on Smogon with T-Wave and Air Slash for abuse. But for Sweeping consider the NP set or even this one: Togekiss (M) @ Life Orb Ability: Hustle EVs: 154 HP/252 Atk/104 Spd Naughty nature (+Atk, -SDef) - Extremespeed - Flamethrower - Grass Knot - Roost May seem gimmicky, but dont be fooled, this has more Attack than a Lucario! You sweep with Extremespeed and the other two moves. Aura Sphere could go over Roost in the last slot to deal with TTar and Heatran... I tested this and it nets SOOO many revenge kills |
Right now I'm building a team and having a bit of trouble: (I'm trying to make a team for a AgiliGross Sweep)
[email protected] 56 hp/200 sAtk/252 spe Timid - Sub - Leech Seed - HP Fire - Leaf Storm [email protected] 252 hp/252 def/6 sAtk - Surf - Calm Mind - Ice Beam - HP Electric Basically sub seed in the beginning, draining my opponents lead. It also does well against Aero, Azelf, etc. Water/Grass is a classic combo to absorbing attacks. Now, I realize [email protected] Scarf with thunderbolt and HP Ice can destory this, but either than that i need to help not build up weaknesses. Any suggestions? and this is the Metagross is the one i'm using: [email protected] Orb 252 atk/208 spe/44 hp Adamant - Agility - Meteor Mash - Earthquake - Thunder Punch Right now my team covers (somewhat) Skarmory, Bulky Waters, Dragons, Scizor (ish), and some other things. |

Togekiss @ Leftovers/Lum Berry Modest Nature Serene Grace 252 HP/152 SPATK/104 SPD Nasty Plot Roost Air Slash Aura Sphere First and foremost, MAKE SURE YOU'VE REMOVED ENEMY ZAPDOS AND ROTOM FORMES BEFORE SETTING THIS UP. Also, it'd be better if you've cleared out/paralyzed enemy LOGar, or any opposing electrics. Anyways, use Togekiss's bulk and Nasty Plot to raise his SPATK to sky-high levels. Air Slash/Aura Sphere provides an attacking combination resisted only by Zapdos and the Rotoms. Leftovers for recovery, and Lum Berry is a one time cure for paralysis/toxic, both of which screw Toggy up. Togekiss @ Choice Specs Modest Serene Grace 64 HP/252 SPATK/192 SPD Air Slash Aura Sphere Flamethrower Tri Attack/Shadow Ball Specs Togekiss. Air Slash and Aura Sphere, as usual, are his two main attacks. Flamethrower destroys steels. For the last slot, you can go Tri Attack for secondary STAB, or Shadow Ball to hit incoming Rotoms. Paraflinch (Thunder Wave/Air Slash) is still his most popular set, but nobody here would really recommend it; as Anti put it, the concept of the set is "hey, let's win thru hax instead of prediction!" |
Thanks for your help, Ambient, Gofre, Pysncrono and Fabian. The NP Sweeper looks good:
Togekiss @ Leftovers Serene Grace Modest Nature 252 HP / 152 SpA / 104 Spe - Nasty Plot - Roost - Air Slash - Aura Sphere But if I wanted to hack with Thunder Wave, would I take out Aura Sphere or Nasty Plot? |
Taking out Nasty Plot would remove it's ability to Nasty Plot (which it needs to have if it's going to be a Nasty Plot sweeper, Obviously)
Taking out either Aura Sphere or Air Slash would remove your coverage and taking out roost would remove your ability to heal. If your sticking with this kind of set, thunder wave has no place on it. |
Okay, sorry to bother everyone with so many questions, but now I'm building an UU team and I need two more Pokemon to round it out. I'm mostly looking for a wall. Here's my team so far:
[email protected], Timid (4 HP/252 Spe/252 SpA) Ice Beam Substitute Thunder Wave Spikes [email protected] Orb, Hasty (36 Atk/220 Spe/252 SpA) Crunch Flamethrower Thunderbolt HP Grass [email protected], Impish (252 HP/6 Atk/252 Def) Earthquake Roar Toxic Spikes Stealth Rock [email protected] Specs, Timid (252 Spe, 252 SpA, 252 SpD) HP Electric Energy Ball Overheat Dark Pulse Any suggestions? Like I said, I'm looking mainly for a wall, also anything you think the team is missing, also tell me if I'm being silly and making a useless team. I'm still very new at this (as my loltastic post above shows). |
Hmm, you're looking for a special wall mainly, and although I'd suggest Grumpig/Hypno, it would only add to the ghost/dark weak. Use a Cosmic Power Clefable, it causes switches which are IMMENSELY helpful seeing your hazard team. For your last poke I suggest a Swellow or DDAltaria as you need a Ground immune seeing your 3x Ground weak.
Hope that helped :) |
Need some help deciding if I should use SD Toxicroak or SD Absol. Toxicroak is nice and all, but its Sucker Punch is weaker, and even its STAB Cross Chop is weaker than Absol's Superpower (in terms of damage output)
