Its the Megatotallyhipfunkyawesome Midnight Winged Squad!!
Yes, the Megatotallyhipfunkyawesome Midnihgt Winged Squad. Fear them.
Porygon-Z-Choice Specs Timid-252 Special Attack, 252 Speed, 4 HP Adaptability Tri Attack Ice Beam Thunderbolt Dark Pulse 34% Damage to a Blissey with Tri Attack, and 2HKO on Articuno. Oh yeah dont mess with my special sweeper. Heracross-Choice Scarf Adamant-252 Attack, 252 Speed, 4 HP Close Combat Stone Edge Megahorn Aerial Ace (Opposing HEracross are a problem, so Aerial Ace is there for them, its odd but works) Salamence-Choice Band Adamant-252 Attack, 252 Speed, 4 HP Dragon Claw Earthquake Stone Edge Flamethrower This thing purts the hurt on many opposing Pokemon, doesnt even matter what they are. Articuno-Leftovers Calm-252 HP, 96 Def, 160 SpDef Roost Ice Beam HP Fire Heal Bell Special Wall, looking for EVs. Donphan-Leftovers Impish-252 HP, 180 Defense, 76 Attack Ice Shard Earthquake Rapid Spin Stealth Rock Physical tanky thing Cresselia-Leftovers Bold-252 HP, 152 Def, 104 Special Defense Moonlight Ice Beam Charge Beam Thunder Wave Mixed Wall So yeah Im looking for big weaks and obvious changes that aren't really pointless. |
I'd prefer Choice Scarf on Porygon-Z so it can outrun some really common threats like Weavile. Speaking of Weavile, you have a Weavile Weakness. And Heracross takes out two of your walls. Dusknoir can also harm your team a bit too. I'd prefer Pursuit over Aerial Ace on Hera.
Edit: I get Neko. -pulls- |
Didn't he just say that he had Aerial Ace to take care of opposing Heracross? That is like saying to take something away, so you can fix it again, but in a different way. o.0
Mega Weavile weak, as Azonic said, the only thing that can beat it is Heracross, and if Weavile is running Focus Sash you're screwed. (Counter Sash = Death also, as well as a Ice Punch / Ice Shard Weavile) I would prefer HP Fighting over Dark Pulse, but I suppose this is a wifi team, so it might be hard to breed for it, unless you try. (Any that would limit your Spd, Sp. Def and Sp. Atk to 30 IV's Max, or else no HP Fighting) Basically, you choose. Cresselia-Leftovers Bold-252 HP, 152 Def, 104 Special Defense (???) Rest Psychic Charge Beam Thunder Wave STAB with the Psychic, or else Mix-Ape gives you troubles. Rest over Moonlight because these days all of those field conditions and Moonlight = Phail. :( Run Lum Berry if you're worried about Rest, but I wouldn't. Donphan-Leftovers Impish-252 HP, 220 Defense, 36 Attack Ice Shard Earthquake Rapid Spin Stealth Rock Fine, but 36 Atk EV's ensures a 1HKO on Garchomp, hence the other Atk EV's aren't really needed, as Earthquake still hits Vire for 1HKO, among the other threats. The other Atk EV's should be plunged into defense. ;) Ok, sorry I didn't quote and bold like normal, but I wasn't going to rate as much as comment on Azonic. Oh well. :) Regards, ~T_S |
Dark Pulse hits Cresselia, Dusknoir, Gengar, etc. hard, its a pretty big necessity. And Im thinking Articuno replaces Blissey, since Ive seen Articuno in action, and he isnt afraid of Weavile. Oly problem is Ice Beam doesnt get Weavile very hard...
|
What is the standard Cuno set?
~T_S |
Ice Beam, Roost, Roar, Heal Bell. I suppose Roar could turn into HP Flying or something.
|
Or HP Fire. That takes care of Skarmory / Forretress and Weavile, among others.
~T_S |
Hmm, another fire move would be nice, I'll ry that out, oh wait I need Anti-Pops Evs, I need to go on an Ev hunt.
|
lol, I'm pretty sure he got them straight from Smogon, just don't tell him I said that....
~T_S |
34% Damage on Blissey is nothing that can't be fixed by a Softboiled. Or were you just using that as an example? The Nasty Plot set is better on Porygon-Z in my opinion.
You might want to put Fire Blast over Flamethrower on Mence to help make up for the negative nature and no EV support. |
Flamethrower is there soley for Skarmory and Forretress etc. Mence is able to 1HKO them with that set, so no need to take anything out of the other EV's, it works fine.
Nasty Plot + Porygon-Z = Phail :( Choice Specs is there for a reason. P-Z is too frail. 34% on Bliss is better than 12%... Tri Attack allows for Status. Freeze it and you can KO Bliss. Specs >> Nasty Plot :D ~T_S |

I only see Nasty Plot and Pory-Z going together when a Togekiss Baton Pass is on the team.
Specs-Z has given me trouble, but Scarf-Z has done much more to me. It's not fun to get nearly swept by one when you have a Plot Toge with you. Flamethrower with Adamant Mence seems a little bleh, but that's me. Lonely or Naughty in my opinion will work. Otherwise, use Fire Blast to make up for the lost power. Hera-countering Heracross... that's fine with me. I gotta assemble a Hera-counter myself. Cressy... I hate that thing so much! X_X 2 hour stall war with that thing is not fun. I can't critique that. Arty I have no experience with. That's up to everyone else. Weavile poses somewhat of a problem, but that's it. in my eyes. |

HP Flying is really fail on Articuno BTW For the record, I only use Smogon as a reference, I never make blind copies from it. EDIT: and Smogon is not the place to go for Mantine or Articuno, believe me. Their EVs were just no... |
Quote:
So not true lol. Even 76 EVs don't guarantee a 1HKO. He should be able to 2HKO. |
I knew it was either all, I must have remembered wrong. O_O
I was tired then, it was something like 1 in the morning. ~T_S |
What defense does your team have against, say, a Lapras with Ice Beam other than Porygon Z's Thunderbolt?
|
Other than Cresselia and Articuno??? o.0
~T_S |
Well that would be an odd find, but Heracross can Close Combat, Cresselia would eat up its attacks and use Charge Beam, and Salamence can Dragon Claw it which will deal a ton of damage, so yeah quitw a bit.
|
Lapras? Seriously? Lapras is far from a threat to any team. Except maybe like a Fire-type team. o.O
|
Ah, I am so far behind on all of this Advanced Gen. stuff.
I'm just now trying to get into the Ruby gen, haha but I'm really good with first gen... Can someone like, idk tutor me on EVs and shit? |
Well thats kind of... yeah, you;re good with first and second gen, we deal mostly in fourth around here, and go arouns Simple Q & A for EV help.
