Weakness Bane - Tears of the Rainbow
I looked through all OU and BL Pokémon that had only one weakness, then looked through those to see who had the most resistances. Thus, this team was born.
No two Pokémon share one weakness. All Pokémon have one (or no) weakness, unless there's a special effect like Gravity in effect. I also made certain to have a special wall, a special sweeper, a physical sweeper, and a physical wall. I can use Forretress instead of Scizor, Swampert instead of Drapion, Bronzong instead of Weezing (only if I'm using Swampert), and Raikou instead of Kingdra (only if I'm using Bronzong). If I do use Bronzong, I'll use Heat Proof on it. http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpiconani/dpiconani212.gif @ Choice Scarf; Technician Adamant; 28 HP, 252 Attack, 228 Speed U-Turn Iron Head Pursuit Aerial Ace This is my Heracross counter. Thanks to Technician, Aerial Ace is enough to put Heracross at about 40 HP. All I have to do then is hit it again with whatever I want. This assumes max HP and max Defense on Heracross. http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpiconani/dpiconani452.gif @ Scope Lens; Sniper Jolly; 252 Attack, 188 Speed, 70 HP Night Slash Brick Break Knock Off Swords Dance Ah, the dreaded Scope Lens, Sniper, and Night Slash combination. Add Swords Dance, and you had better have a Heracross with Earthquake. Even if you do, I'll just Knock Off your pathetic little Choice Band, then Brick Break you. Screw your Reflect. http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpiconani/dpiconani110.gif @ Leftovers; Levitate Bold; 252 HP, 252 Defense, 4 Speed Sludge Bomb Will-O-Wisp Sleep Talk Rest I had nothing else to absorb status ailments, so Weezing serves as a Rest-Talker. The EVs are the same as the physical wall set, and I still have Will-O-Wisp, so it should be fine. http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpiconani/dpiconani230.gif @ Life Orb; Swift Swim Modest; 240 HP, 252 Special Attack, 16 Speed Surf Dragon Pulse Hidden Power (Electric) Rain Dance Rain Dance is partially for Kingdra and partially for Scizor, since it weakens Fire. This is my counter against Dragons and Gyarados, but I'll have to watch out for Electivire. http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpiconani/dpiconani442.gif @ Leftovers; Pressure Careful; 252 HP, 144 Attack, 112 Special Defense Pursuit Taunt Pain Split Will-O-Wisp This is my other possible lead. I chose Taunt over Sucker Punch because I'm otherwise set-up weak. http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpiconani/dpiconani242.gif @ Leftovers; Serene Grace Bold; 252 Defense, 6 Speed, 252 HP Seismic Toss Softboiled Aromatherapy Ice Beam Your obligatory self-explaining blob of pink special ownage. I'm not of the opinion that I really need a Rapid Spinner here, since I have nothing weak to Stealth Rock. Over all, Heracross and Electivire I have to be careful about, but pretty much anything else I can handle, right? Fix #1: Scizor was changed entirely. Fix #1: Blissey gets Ice Beam instead of Thunder Wave, and uses Serene Grace instead of Natural Cure. |

Physical Infernape threatens you, CS Chompers threatens you, and Medicham sends this team straight to hell. |

Anyway, I was editing when you posted that, so please look at Scizor again. |

But as for Weaks, Mixed Infernape will infeRAPE your team. All of your walls are pretty much destroyed by it. Your walls can't really fight back against things, Spiritomb can only launch a weak pursuit. What's that going to do? Your team is destroyed by Heracross, and with 2 WoW users, you're very vulnerable to giving it a guts boost and then it will plow through everything, including Weezing. Speaking of Weezing, that thing can't fight back either. Flamethrower is nice to actually hurt heracross and to beat steels that are immune to sludge bomb. Really, either the theme is hurting this team or you need to pick some new pokemon, because you don't possess any really powerful sweeping that threatens the opposition, and you will be outstalled and dealt with. BTW, none of those pokemon have any useful resistances at all, except for EQ immunity on Weezing's part. EDIT: If this team isn't made to function by strategy like you said, you aren't going to win any games...the entire point of making a team is to use skill and strategy to win battles, not just to make it for fun (as far as serious rates are concerned) |
*sigh*
I'm sick of my teams failing. I'm just going to let this die. |
