UU Team - "From the ground up."
Ok, so I'm new to UU play, although I have used some of these pokes in OU before with decent success. I'd appreciate some help on what to fix, or if a Pokemon looks like it could be replaced, then please tell me. Here it goes... Team Overview: http://www.pokebeach.com/sprites/dp/1/097.pnghttp://www.pokebeach.com/sprites/dp/2/141.pnghttp://www.pokebeach.com/sprites/dp/1/034.pnghttp://www.pokebeach.com/sprites/dp/1/306.pnghttp://www.pokebeach.com/sprites/dp/1/334.pnghttp://www.pokebeach.com/sprites/dp/2/279.png Hypno, Kabutops, Toxicroak, Aggron, Meganium, and Pelipper is also being considered at this time. Team In-Depth: http://www.pokebeach.com/sprites/dp/back/097.png//http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/rsitem164.png [email protected] 252 HP / 56 Def / 200 SpDef Calm Nature - Thunderwave - Wish - Reflect - Psychic/Seismic Toss I love this thing. It statuses, provides team wish support, boosts team defense, and can hit hard with Psychic or can wear things down with Seismic Toss. Works well, especially in OU. It was either this or Grumpig, and I prefer Hypno. http://www.pokebeach.com/sprites/dp/back/141.png//http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/rsitem164.png [email protected] 248 HP / 156 SpDef / 104 Spd Jolly Nature - Stone Edge - Rapid Spin - Swords Dance - Waterfall The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best The best http://www.pokebeach.com/sprites/dp/back/034.png//http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/rsitem166.png [email protected] Orb 6 HP / 252 SpAtk / 252 Spd Rash Nature - Earth Power - Thunderbolt - Ice Beam - Shadow Ball/HP Grass (Haven't decided, but am leaning towards HP Grass) My special sweeper, and it hits most UU pokemon for atleast neutral damage. I prefer Life Orb over Choice Specs due to my hatred of Choice items. http://www.pokebeach.com/sprites/dp/back/306.png//http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/rsitem164.png [email protected] 252 HP / 252 Atk / 6 Def Sturdy Relaxed - Curse - Ice Punch - Brick Break - Earthquake One of my favorite pokes. I used him on NetBattle to BP Ninjask's speed boost and Swords Dance to. Also, a great wall, especially so with Wish support. Immunity to Toxic on a wall? Yes, please! http://www.pokebeach.com/sprites/dp/back/334.png//http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/rsitem164.png [email protected] 252 HP / 200 Def / 56 SpDef Careful Nature - Aerial Ace - Heal Bell - Roost - Sing My cleric. Works well so far, and can take hits. http://www.pokebeach.com/sprites/dp/back/279.png//http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/rsitem164.png [email protected] 236 HP / 160 Def / 114 SpAtk Bold Nature - Surf - Air Slash - Roost - Knock Off Great tank, and Knock Off demolishes other tanks/walls. Pelipper's Special Attack and STAB for his attacks also works well for cleaning up. Quote:

Um that threat list is a bit...incomplete O_O No Hypno :(
I don't really get what Rapid Spin is doing on an attacking set for Kabutops. |
Quote:
If that makes sense. |
Sandslash= Best UU spinner in my opinion. Its like the UU donphan from hell.
I'll try and remember the standard, ill post it when I've got it. EDIT: Plus it complements your 2 electric weaks |

Idk I kind of like this team (with Toxicroak > Nidoking and Meganium > Altaria) |
I can't see what aggron's planning to achieve, so I'd ditch him. You need a dedicated physical wall anyway, which sandslash excels at and claydol can kinda do :)
|
Even in UU, Sweepers piss all over Aggron with his quadruple weaknesses, Ground and Fighting, two of the most common attacking types used in competitive play.
Sandslash/Claydol > Aggron |

Meganium can learn many useful moves, like Reflect, Light Screen, Leech Seed, and the obvious Aromatherapy.
I usually run this: [email protected] Bold/Calm 216 HP / 148 DEF / 144 SATT Aromatherapy Light Screen/Reflect Leech Seed/Synthesis Leaf Storm/Energy Ball/Grass Knot I prefer Leaf Storm as its attacking move, even though it's not standard. |
Quote:
That's a good set though, I'll give it a shot. |
Quote:
Meganium is not very reliable as statusing, as Its only sleep move is the horribly inaccurate Grasswhistle and it can't get Stun Spore. All that's there is Toxic, but everything that can learn a TM can get it, meaning there are ALOT of Pokemon that can use it far better :/ |
Quote:
I was under the impression that Meganium learned the spores; my bad. |
Quote:
Interesting Grass Fact: The Only Pokemon that can possibly get Spore are mushrooms, as Spore's Japanese name is "Mushroom Spore" |
I'd put Aqua Jet in combination with Swords Dance on Kabutops for a little quick strike, just in comparison to Donphan's Ice Shard, see what I mean?
|
I agree, especially considering you have nothing truly fast on your team. Jumpluff could prove a hassle otherwise.
