UU Team
After recieving an interesting ropius on the GTS, I wanted to build a UU team around it. Here's what I've got:
Toxicroak (♂) @ Choice Band Ability: Dry Skin EVs: 6 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd Jolly nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Sucker Punch - Brick Break/Cross Chop - Earthquake - Poison Jab Physical Sweeper. Sucker Puch should do a number on most leads. Gets a free switch-in when Ninetales is in danger of a water attack. --- Ninetales (♀) @ Wide Lens Ability: Flash Fire EVs: 6 HP/252 Spd/252 SAtk Modest nature (+SAtk, -Atk) - Hypnosis - Nasty Plot - Flamethrower - Energy Ball Special Sweeper. Use Wide Lens to put the opponent to sleep, NP up and sweep. Can use Tropius to draw fire moves, boosting her Flamethrower. --- Nidoking (♂) @ Life Orb Ability: Poison Point EVs: 114 Atk/252 Spd/144 SAtk Naive nature (+Spd, -SDef) - Megahorn - Thunderbolt - Earthquake - Ice Beam Mixking. Not sure of the standard, but this seems pretty solid. Also draws water moves for Toxicroak or: --- Politoed (♂) @ Leftovers Ability: Water Absorb EVs: 252 HP/58 SAtk/200 SDef Calm nature (+SDef, -Atk) - Hypnosis - Toxic - Hydro Pump/Surf - Mud Shot/Ice Beam An interesting double-status special tank. Mud Shot is mainly there to reduce opponent's speed. Switch into water moves for extra HP recovery. --- Torkoal (♂) @ Leftovers Ability: White Smoke EVs: 252 HP/6 Atk/252 Def Relaxed nature (+Def, -Spd) - Curse - Gyro Ball - Stealth Rock - Rapid Spin Physical Wall. After a few Curses, Gyro Ball should mash everything. --- Tropius (♂) @ Leftovers Ability: Chlorophyll EVs: 252 HP/6 SAtk/252 SDef Calm nature (+SDef, -Atk) - Energy Ball - Air Slash - Roost - Whirlwind Special Wall. Immune to Ground, resistant to Grass, Water and Fighting, good Sp. Def and very good HP to back it up. Whirlwind gets rid of phazers and some threats. --- Well, ladies and gentlemen, rate away. |

Curse Coal is not too good when i tried it =[
Try this [email protected] 252 HP / 252 DEF / 6 SP.ATT Relaxed Nature - Lava Plume - Rapid Spin - Toxic / Yawn / Stealth Rock - Explosion / Rest A sort of double status. Lava Plume has a 30% burn rate which is nice on things that want to come in and EQ him. Toxic can hit bulky waters on the switch, Yawn is your PHaze move. Alternately Stealth Rock can got here if you want team support. Explosion on that last slot if you want to go out with a Bang, or Rest to make him last longer. |
I would probably just BOOM Torkoal since it doesn't last long. It defines why people hate fire as a defensive type...EQ weak, rock weak, water weak...ew. So yeah, Go BOOM with Torkoal.
|
Aerodactly with sash has a field day against this team. It has a move that can pretty much OHKO everything. You need a counter.
|
It's UU Jimmyray. No Aerodactyl there.
|
Now THAT is a good point.
|
On the whle its ok, but you have 3 ice weaks (One of which is quad) and 3 psychic weaks (Another quad), and a wall which is weak to both. I'd switch tropius for hypno, who i have found to be the best UU special wall.
|
I don't see three Ice weaks. Only Nidoking and Tropius. And the four other Pokemon on his team RESIST it. And only two Psychic weaks as well. So I don't know what you're talking about.
|
Sorry a moment of madness lol. I thought torkoal was rock instead of fire, and for some reason i thought psychic was super effective against grass. Forgive me, i talk sense most of the time :P
|
You have 4 weak to ground and 3 to rock and flying. Stone edge/ Earthquake = Doom. May I suggest octillory? I have a set somewhere, so I'll try to find that.
|
Rock isn't weak to ice either :0
And like Dark_Azelf said, I wouldn't try cursing Torkoal. |
give ninetales fire blast instead of flamethrower. make more use of wide lens, why doncha. also, give it timid. with its speed, it basically outruns most if not all lower tier threats, which is especially why they made it BL rather UU.
curse on torkoal does suck. =/ i dunno, even with tropius' resistance, this team has too bad of a ground weakness. drop torkoal for sandslash. pronto. that nidoking is not going to be doing much damage, but that is reality. i'd give toxicroak some hp evs so it can take some hits. |
