Magmortified Wins (OU RMT >=O)
I swear I'll stick around longer this time. Anyhow, built a team for Raikou, which I think does not suck in Platinum, and it's been doing surprisingly well... for how long? Who knows. That's why I've got this hair rmt. Seriously, guys, help. D:
http://www.arkeis.com/images/pokemonfactory/bronzong.png Bronzong @ Light Clay Ability: Levitate EVs: 252 HP/86 Atk/80 Def/92 SDef Relaxed nature (+Def, -Spd) - Stealth Rock - Explosion - Light Screen - Reflect --- Since Deoxys got the boot, and I'm uncomfortable with stuff like Azelf, I'm using Dual-Screen Bronzong for my daily dose of SR and Screens. To be honest, it just seemed like a good idea at the time. I'm probably going to have to switch off to a more standard Bronzong once I start running into DDTars, but for the moment I like my screens. http://www.arkeis.com/images/pokemonfactory/gyarados.png Gyarados (M) @ Life Orb Ability: Intimidate EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd Adamant nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Waterfall - Earthquake - Stone Edge - Dragon Dance --- I usually switch this into Heatrans that aim Earth Powers at Raikou. Gyarados is pretty beastly in general, and sometimes takes more out than Raikou does. It takes down Zapdos with a DD LO Stone Edge. Which rocks, because I'm just paranoid about Zapdos in general. http://www.arkeis.com/images/pokemonfactory/mamoswine.png Mamoswine (M) @ Life Orb Ability: Oblivious EVs: 252 Atk/232 Spd/20 SAtk Naughty nature (+Atk, -SDef) - Earthquake - Stone Edge - Blizzard - Ice Shard --- Skymin-revenge-killer and a workable back-up when things get tough. It doesn't help my Heatran problem, so I'm considering replacement in favor of ScarfTran. It revenges things just as well. :S Probably the only reason I'm keeping Mamo is because it can deal with Zapdos and can take on Tar better, which probably just proves my paranoia. ._. http://www.arkeis.com/images/pokemonfactory/raikou.png Raikou @ Leftovers Ability: Pressure EVs: 64 HP/252 Spd/96 SAtk/96 SDef Timid nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Thunderbolt - Calm Mind - Substitute - Hidden Power [Ice] --- Here's the beast. Most of my team is built up for the purpose of letting this guy kill stuff. It beats non-Roar Zapdos better than Suicune could ever hope to, and generally just rocks. Heatran and Skymin are its biggest worries (aside from Blissey, but that's generally taken care of), and I like to think I'm packing an appropriate amount of protection from them. I like to think I'm cool because I use Raikou. http://www.arkeis.com/images/pokemonfactory/tentacruel.png Tentacruel (M) @ Leftovers Ability: Clear Body EVs: 204 HP/36 Spd/96 SAtk/172 SDef Calm nature (+SDef, -Atk) - Toxic Spikes - Surf - Ice Beam - Rapid Spin / Hidden Power [Electric] --- Erm... yeah. Tentacruel. Sets up Toxic Spikes that can support Raikou well, and provides semi-protection from Skymin and lots of protection from Ape. Though I'm kind of iffy on it, since I'm focusing on Special when my Physical protection is pretty nil. So I may have to swap it out for something else that can help cover me better. http://www.arkeis.com/images/pokemonfactory/dugtrio.png Dugtrio (M) @ Choice Band Ability: Arena Trap EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd Jolly nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Earthquake - Stone Edge - Sucker Punch - Aerial Ace --- Revenges Tar and Blissey, which harass my team badly. There's not much more to say for it. I guess it can Stone Edge Zapdos or something if I'm desperate. Help, gais. D: |
Can i change "wins" in your thread title to "fails" and change the "M" in Magmortified to an "F" kekekeke
Heh, anyways this looks kinda similar to Sir Spankys team, well the strategy does anyway. You know what im gonna say, Gyarados does infact cause you problems, i dont know why, but i was thinking something like dual screen uxie/mesprit can do the same thing as zong and provide you with some extra insurance against Gyara with a Set of something like T-Bolt/SR/Dual Screens, something to consider...Then that way it cant set up on any of your team bar duggy trapped into something stupid xp. Lets face it, expoding on Gyarados with zong is really predictable and not really the best way to deal with something. So yeah i have my doubts about that.... Make duggy jolly as the new standard bliss (calm) is 2hko'd by that anyway and adamant duggy iirc is outsped by mixape and T-Tar after a dd T_T. Ill come back later to do more if i spot something... |
I see you like being DDTar weak =/ Adamant Dugtrio is outsped by +Speed Infernape, thus it's outsped by Jolly DD Tar. After one Dragon Dance, it 2-OHKOs your entire team. Blowing up on it with Bronzong is your...only real insurance. You could try Reflect, but that'll give Tar extra Dragon Dances. Jolly on Dugtrio can fix that, and hopefully Gyro Ball on Bronzong? Please.
