~| UU Team
 
I made this a while back for Diamond, no platinum, so:
Hey, so I decided to try to make an UU team, please give a lot of C&C. Note: This is for Wi-Fi battling, and I can't download Shoddy to test, so if anyone wants to test this for me on Shoddy, please do and tell me how it does. And please don't OD on the Hidden Powers! So here it is:

----Shiftry-[Special Sweeper]
http://www.arkeis.com/images/pokemonfactory/shiftry.png
Shiftry @ Life Orb
Timid
Chlorophyll
6 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
~ Dark Pulse
~ Grass Knot
~ Nasty Plot
~ Extrasensory
Notes: He is here to deal with my Psychic and Water weaknesses. That is basically it.

----Poliwrath-[Physical Sweeper]
http://www.arkeis.com/images/pokemonfactory/poliwrath.png
Poliwrath @ Choice Band
Adamant
Water Absorb
72 HP / 252 Atk / 184 Spe
~ Waterfall
~ Brick Break

----Camerupt-[Special Wall]
http://www.arkeis.com/images/pokemonfactory/camerupt.png
Camerupt @ Leftovers
Modest
Solid Rock
228 HP / 96 SpA / 184 SpD

Vileplume @ Leftovers
Calm/Sassy

Rash > Modest > Timid on Shiftry. The other two lower attack, which isn't particularly helpful using Rock Throw.

Go with Brick Break on Poli, as there'll be little chance to actually land a FP.

If you wanna go for a SeedStaller, go with Breloom.
ToxicOrb + Poison Heal + Spore = Massive Stall. :P Sleep Powder's too dodgy.

Jynx gets screwed over by Taunt, I guess, so maybe add an attacking move over Lovely Kiss?

Two words:

Sleep. Clause.

kthxbai!

Shame breloom is ou and this is an uu team xp


Worry Seed on Jumpluff is garbage (infact on anything its garbage), use Encore >> it. Since Encore is a really broken move and screws so much up its unreal.


Also yeah sleep clause is kinda gonna screw this up because you have a sleep inducing move on pluff, plume and Jynx. Id put stun spore or sludge bomb >> sleep powder on plume and scarf up that jynx, because swellow 6-o's you, at least then you can revenge kill it >:


What use is Rock Slide on shiftry ? none. Use Extrasensory (Extrasensory helps against Fighters and Poison-types) or possibly Hp ice. Heck there is even Explosion.

Samson December 5th, 2008 8:58 AM

you do understand jumpluff has reflect, right? o.O it's really your only chance against primeape.

so many things wrong with this team. perish trap is trash, just do subCM already.

that camerupt set is weird, but meh, all camerupt sets are weird. that's why i love it <3.

give shiftry life orb over leftovers.

you need a better physical tank. i'd drop poliwrath for CB whiscash. i know, doesn't have as much ATK as poliwrath, but it has better defensive abilities and also has STAB EQ and Spark, something that'll bring opposing waters down (did anyone say PeliPWN? XD). besides, 420 vs 445 is all you're looking at. adamant, 252 atk/188 hp/68 DEF, waterfall/EQ/spark/zen headbutt. i know it doesn't have much speed which is why you drop sleep powder on Vileplume for Stun Powder. i have to reiterate SLEEP mofoing CLAUSE. don't start thinking that you can Toxicize everything else once something is asleep. nonono, you paralyze on your opponents predicted switch and then bring in a counter. you can only ever use toxic on other stallers. your team handles grass type pokes very well, so the concern for whiscash's weakness is not necessary. trust me, whiscash will do very well.

Oh crud I forgot. :P

Put EQ over Rock Slide on Poli. EQ can cover Electric types whereas Rock only covers bug and ice. Neither of which are large threats to a water type sweeper.

Gulpin December 12th, 2008 5:55 PM

What should I replace Jynx's and Vileplumes' sleeping moves with?

otaku-dono December 12th, 2008 6:08 PM

Timid Shiftry. You're unnecessarily lowering its defenses, which is not the best of ideas with something as fragile as Shiftry. The set is fine though.

Maybe go for Ice Beam over Lovely Kiss on Jynx? Just for some STAB, and it would do a lot since Jynx has nice Sp.A. Interesting way to use it though. You could try and run a Scarf set on it instead, just if the PerishTrapping doesn't work too well.

As for Vileplume, maybe just get rid of it altogether? Three Grass types on one team is a tad excessive, even with a good counter to Fires at your disposal.
