May I borrow your umbrella, sir?
 
Mawile @ Damp Rock / Leftovers
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 232 HP / 26 Atk / 252 DEF
Impish Nature (Def +, SAtk -)

Iron Head
Brick Break
Crunch
Rain Dance

I want an UU Rain Inducer that isn't a Water-type. And I love Mawile. My top candidate for Pokemon to get an evolution. ;;


Altaria @ Leftovers
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 244 HP / 208 Def / 56 SDef
Sassy Nature (SDef +, Speed -)

Dragon Pulse
Earthquake
Toxic
Roost

Absorbs Grass-type attacks like a Queen. Would be walled by Levitating Steels if there were any in UU.


Kabutops @ Life Orb / Choice Band
Ability: Swift Swim
EVs: 32 HP / 252 Atk / 96 Def / 128 Speed
Adamant Nature (Atk +, SAtk -)

Waterfall
Stone Edge
X-Scissor
Rain Dance / Night Slash / Brick Break / Giga Impact

<3


Venomoth @ Life Orb
Ability: Tinted Lens
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SAtk / 6 Speed
Modest Nature (SAtk +, Atk -)

Bug Buzz
Hidden Power [Ground]
Sludge Bomb
Stun Spore

Always wanted to use one of these.


Lanturn @ Leftovers
Ability: Volt Absorb
EVs: Couldn't find an EV Spread I liked when I looked to Smogon for advice, so I'm stuck here. :\
Calm Nature (SDef +, Atk -)

Surf
Thunder
Ice Beam
Confuse Ray

Helps block Electric-type moves. 'Nuff said.

Meganium @ Leftovers
Ability: Growth
EVs: 216 HP / 148 Def / 144 SAtk
Bold Nature (Def +, Atk -)

Energy Ball
Leech Seed
Light Screen
Aromatherapy / Hidden Power [Rock]

Pwetty.

Please don't base your rates on OU. I realized Nidoking can be a problem but most UU teams have that problem.

I'm not that great with UU teams, but Mawile as a Rain Dancer is actually a good idea. Not only will it draw out fire, but when you pull off that Rain Dance, what are they going to do about it? With Fire at half power, what else to say?

But yeah...Nidoking with Quake and Ice Beam or Earth Power and Ice Beam can cause you trouble. However, I do highly approve of this team. Lanturn's evil!

Switched Masquerain for Venomoth. The moth is hotter than the bug-thing anyway (also lacks a weakness to Ice and Ground).

Eos Aduro February 5th, 2008 4:21 PM

It would be nice to have something esle thats in UU that benefits from Rain Dance, nbut I suppose just Kabutops is good. Maybe like Toxicroak can ebenfit well with Dry Skin, especially since Rain Dance draws out water attacks more. But Kabutops is a good physical attacker too.

shedinjask February 5th, 2008 4:54 PM

I was expecting Dewgong or Toxicroak or something.

Well balanced, props for using Mawile.

sims796 February 5th, 2008 5:35 PM

I was REALLY hoping to see Dewgong.

I hope you make a Sunnyday team.

Faceless* February 5th, 2008 5:41 PM

Altaria is able to survive an Ice Beam, I always give my Altaria a Yache Berry with Earthquake/Dragon Claw, I see where you are getting Dragon Pulse/Earthquake, but I would just run it all Physical

Since I use my Altaria in OU, I also give it Fire Blast, but this isn't OU now is it? As for Toxic, I'm not too sure.. I'd give it Fire Blast with Toxic

On Venomoth


Id maybe put Sleep powder >> Stun Spore, although its up to you.

Psychic >> Hidden power

Psychic works on the Grass/Poison types that are fairly common in the UU environment and will cause problems for this particular team.

Especially this

[email protected] Orb / Heat Rock
124 HP / 252 Sp.A / 132 Spe
Modest Nature
Trait : Chlorophyll
~ Sunny Day
~ Solarbeam
~ Hidden Power Fire
~ Sludge Bomb / Sleep Powder



Id consider toxicroak aswell.

Atacks:

Substitute
