lolwut
 
I wanted to make a team that nobody would expect, so bluh, here.

http://arkeis.com/images/pokemonfactory/gengar.png
wutimleading (Gengar) @ Choice Band
Naughty
EV's: 252 Attack, 252 Speed, 4 Special Attack
-Sucker Punch
-Trick
-Explosion
-Hypnosis

Doesn't this just look stupid? Sick? Twisted?
It should.
I've always adored Trick; it is one of the most wrench-throwing moves in the game; I mean, don't you just want to give SR leads Choice Bands, and take away suicide lead's Focus Sashes? :D
Sucker Punch OHKO's standard Azelf 58.97% of the time, which, though not much, it's enough. Explosion is obvious. Hypnosis puts Choice leads to sleep.

Oh, and Choice Band Gengar still > Choice Specs Gyarados.

I'MMA SMACK MAH B#$%H UP (Azelf) @ Life Orb
Jolly
EV's: 252 Attack, 252 Speed, 4 HP
-Fire Punch
-Zen Headbutt
-Explosion
-U-Turn

Physizelf? What?
Fire Punch over Ice Punch because of Scizor. ZH for STAB, Explosion and U-Turn are standard.

http://arkeis.com/images/pokemonfactory/bronzong.png
Bell Of Death (Bronzong) @ Leftovers
Heatproof
Brave
EV's: 252 Attack, 252 HP, 4 Defense
-Gyro Ball
-Earthquake
-Rock Slide
-Zen Headbutt

Everyone expects Bronzong as a lead SR/Hypnoser, but few will expect a wall that fights. 89 Attack, while average, isn't terrible, and its physical movepool, while shallow, offers enough coverage to be useable.

Plutoface (Deoxys-S) @ Life Orb
Modest
EV's: 252 Speed, 252 Special Attack, 4 HP
-Psycho Boost
-Focus Blast
-Thunderbolt
-Ice Beam

Revenge killer. If Scarfgar comes out, I get it out of there. It has everything Scarfgar has, pretty much.

http://arkeis.com/images/pokemonfactory/lucario.png
FEER TEH EPUCNESS (Lucario) @ Choice Scarf
Jolly
EV's: 252 Speed, 252 Attack, 4 HP
-Close Combat
-Earthquake
-Stone Edge
-Shadow Claw

Another revenge killer, this one geared for Tyranitar and Gengar. Explains everything but Stone Edge, which is standard coverage.

http://arkeis.com/images/pokemonfactory/gliscor.png
SmexScorp (Gliscor) @ Expert Belt
Impish
EV's: 252 Attack, 36 Speed, 220 HP
-Brick Break
-Agility
-Swords Dance / Substitute
-Baton Pass

AgilityPass Gliscor. Brick Break and EB are to KO TTar, as Gliscor pretty much screams "Tyranitar counter". Predicting a switch to HP Ice ScarfGar, I can Agility to outspeed it, then BP to Deoxys-S or Azelf and sweep. SD or Sub is a tossup; thoughts?

Let me know what you think.

CB Tar rips holes in your team. Pursuit can take down half of your team and Lucario can't switch in on much other that Pursuit. AgiliGliscor won't be doing a whole lot, Deoxys doesn't need the speed, Luke loses it on the switch and Azelf, which is the only viable recipient, is rather fragile.

DonRoyale October 4th, 2008 7:00 PM

Well, I did post this team largely for the lulz, but if we're going to be serious here...

CB Tar will have to outrun my team before it's able to rip it to shreds. Half my team can OHKO it, and those who can't can either 2HKO, put it to sleep, or U-Turn into something that can kill it.
