New Team
So I'm making a new team and I want to get your thoughts before I start training them all up. Please note it's mainly for PBR wifi, with the odd DS battle when I can get the wifi to work.
Team at first Glance http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfa/dpmfa359.pnghttp://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfa/dpmfa134.pnghttp://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfa/dpmfa141.pnghttp://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfa/dpmfa110.pnghttp://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfa/dpmfa282.pnghttp://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfa/dpmfa472.pnghttp://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfa/dpmfa359.png [email protected] Sash Adamant Nature (+Atk -Sp.Atk) Super Luck EVs: 252 Atk 252 Speed 4 HP Swords Dance Sucker Punch X Scissor Psycho Cut Great lead. Designed to get at least one SD in before Sweeping everything with a STAB Sucker Punch and often getting critcical hits due to Super Luck and 2 great backup moves to either dent or OHKO the opponent. I often 6-0 teams with this alone, but at first sight of Hippowdon or TTar, I'll switch to Vaporeon or Gliscor. http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfa/dpmfa134.png [email protected] Modest Nature (+Sp.Atk -Atk) Water Absorb EVs: 252 Sp.Atk 252 HP 4 Spe Substitute Wish/Yawn/Rain Dance Surf Ice Beam/Baton Pass A bulky and reliable Sp.Attacker. No need of the bold nature due to Gliscor and Weezing, and this team isn't exactly designed for WishPassing. I'm unsure about the 2nd slot there because I know Rain Dance will really help STAB of Surf and Waterfall on Kabutops, but Yawn and Wish are both great moves for Vaporeon as well. Also may have the EVs slightly wrong. http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfa/dpmfa141.png [email protected] Orb Adamant Nature (+Atk -Sp.Atk) Swift Swim (if Rain Dance on Vaporeon)/Battle Armour EVs: 252 Atk 252 Spe 4 Def Waterfall Brick Break Stone Edge Rapid Spin My Physical sweeper in a different way to my lead Absol, and also my Rapid Spinner. A lot of my decisions for this guy depends on my Vaporeons 2nd move such as the 252 EVs in Speed or Defense and whether or not to use Swift Swim. Also my main Bliss counter. http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfa/dpmfa110.png [email protected] Sludge Relaxed nature (+Def -Spd) Levitate Evs: 252 Def ? HP ? Sp.Atk ? Sp.Def Thunder Will-O-Wisp Explosion/Pain Split Shadow Ball/Fire Blast Physical Wall and WoWer. It will not at all benefit from Fire Blast with Rain Dance on the team, so Shadow Ball to counter Psychic threats. Don't know whether to go Explosion or Pain Split. http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfa/dpmfa282.png [email protected] Bell? Calm Nature (+Sp.Def -Atk) Synchronize EVs: 252 Sp.Def 252 Sp.Atk 4 HP Hypnosis Thunderbolt Psychic Shadow ball A sort of Special Sweeper who also acts as a special wall. Also puts things to sleep while it is able to take a few hits. Need help on the item. http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfa/dpmfa472.png [email protected] Impish Nature (+Def -Sp.Atk) Hyper Cutter EVs: 252 Def ? Atk ? HP ? Sp.Def Stealth Rock Knock Off Earthquake Roost Stealth Rock set up and very good to get in a few Knock Off's if possible. I only put Quick Attack because it's my only first priority move on my whole team. Help with the EVs as well. Feel Free to rate, improve and constructively criticise =p |
Gliscor' EVs should be something like 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def
Don't have much experience with the rest but Gardevoir seems a little shaky. Could probably be replaced by a better Sp Wall. Not sure what though. Sorry, not much help : \ |
The stupid font size makes bolding stuff impossible :/
Any weather screws up that honestly pretty meh Absol set. It doesn't help that steels resist every move it has. If it really 6-0s stuff regularly you haven't been facing many good people, no offense. Use Surf/BP/Wish/Sub Vappy. Sorry but Vaporeon WILL fail without Defense EVs. In fact, it pretty much needs a bold nature and max def. Also if Kabutops is your only Blissey counter you're dead. Life Orb recoil with devastate it and Dugtrio will trap and kill it. Needs SD over Rapid spin or a set that can support its rapid spinning duties better. You kind of mixed two sets and the result isn't so hot. For Weezing you might as well run explosion since you have about 8 physical walls. Um Gardy can't really wall special attackers without HP EVs or a way to heal :/ Um what is gliscor doing without roost? >.> ________________________________________ Honestly a weak team. Weezing and gliscor do the same thing, which is a physical ground immunity and fighting resistance. Having both is really redundant so take out one or the other, I'd probably take out Weezing. Almost all special attackers will massacre Gardy and sweep your entire team. Gengar and Zam run you over and SpecsLuke batters it as well. It doesn't help that the ONLY thing that can take special hits even remotely well on your team is killed by pursuit really quickly, and then you are done. Weavile is a really big problem for you and will smash everything you've got. Weezing can kind of take it but STAB CB Ice Punches will do A LOT. Basically any sweeper that isn't bothered by your fighting resisting walls as far as physical sweepers are concerned will mow you down. Gallade can take out Gliscor AND Weezing pretty easily. Basically all special attackers beat your team, besides the few Gardy can actually wall. Take out weezing or Glsicor and put in a real special wall, like Snorlax, Articuno, or the ever-popular Blissey. |

Hmm thanks, but I'm pretty sure that Weezing will be useless with Fire Blast in rain and without WoW. Half of the point of WoW on Weezing is to halve the amount of physical damage they inflict on you, and with Weezing's defense, it's on awesome physical wall in that sense. I may as well go Thunder over Thunderbolt, again due to the rain. I see your point about Wish, and seeing as Vaporeon and Kabutops share the same weakness, it may be difficult to switch into something without taking serious damage, and if it's scarfed, then Bye-bye Kabutops so I have to be good at predicting.

Ohh the conflict between fire/water works well actually. I assumed weezing to be your last game wall. Gliscor should be your primary wall just becaus eit knows knock off. Then gardivour should double status as much as it can. Then weezing would step in a finish off the leftovers.
|
It can't really work like that. If weavile comes in, it's capable of killing Gliscor in 2 hits with Ice Punch or even Ice Shard. I don't really want to have an 'order'. But thanks anyways.

W/ all these Fighting Resists, ReSTalkLax would do good over Gardy.
