Need A Sixth for my team.
 
Scizor - Baton Pass/Agility/Silver Wind/Steel Wing
Snorlax - Rest/Substitute/Focus Punch/Shadow Ball
Blaziken - Swords Dance/Overheat/Earthquake/Sky Uppercut
Dragonite - Haze/Agility/Thunderbolt/Ice Beam
Metagross - Agility/Earthquake/Psychic/Shadow Ball

now that's my final team, but i am having the hardest **** time choosing my sixth. i was going to use steelix, but that's just another pokemon that a fire/fighting type would take out, so i don't think that's an option. i was thinking one of these, but if you have a suggestion please tell me:

Dusclops
Salamance
Absol
Tyranitar
Charizard

any help is appreciated.

I believe your team is lacking a Quick Attacker. Something to take care of those Pokemon who like to use low health to their advantage, like Reversal/Flail users is almost essential on a team. If you want some alternatives to Quick Attack, you can use Mach Punch, Extremespeed or even Fake Out (hardest to use, but most rewarding).

Nathaniel Essex November 25th, 2004 7:44 AM

so what would you suggest?

Mullet November 25th, 2004 7:47 AM

If you want to use one of yours the T-tar.

[email protected] Berry
Nature:Adamant
EVs:Attack/Speed
Dragon Dance
Earthquake
Rock Slide
Brick Break/Crunch

So this should work.

Erm, no. Slash sux. I don't like Absol cuz he has poop speed and no STAB attacks to work off of his awesome Attack stat =[ Absol is only good on BP teams and uh...thats about it =\

how bout clefable? u need more special sweepers. also while its sp attack isnt the best, it can also be used as a tank. if u relaly want another psycial attacker which can special tank id give it leftovers: wish, belly drum, shadow ball/body slam, brick break/meteor mash *recommend shadow ball and birck break b/c there is NO pokemon that is immune or resistant to both types
otherwise: wish, calm mind, thunderbolt, ice beam
or to be a true tank: light screen, reflect, wish/substitute/calm mind, seismic toss/toxic/ psychic

GVG November 25th, 2004 12:16 PM

I think that your main problem is your team going up against Fire Pokemon. Two of your pokemon in the team have a weakness against Ground and Fire. Another thing is that you don't have a good physical tank. I think that Milotic should be included in your team. Takes care of all your problems.

There's a possible moveset for Milotic:
Milotic @ leftovers
EV: 129 Def; 129 Sp. Def; 126 Sp.Attack; 126 HP
-Recover
-Rain Dance
-Surf
-Ice beam

kirby00 November 25th, 2004 12:26 PM

then all he needs is a charizard/flygon: earthquake, rock slide, dragon claw, flamethrower

GVG November 25th, 2004 12:29 PM

This does not take care of the Ground types still, Kirby

Kholdstaire November 25th, 2004 1:45 PM

Especially since 1/2 the grounds are also rocks ._.

Frost November 25th, 2004 2:11 PM

For me- i think that a good original like pidgeot or scyther, one that you would always want in R/B, would be a good choice

kirby00 November 25th, 2004 2:18 PM

i didnt divide the charizards and flygon spereately, i jsut put wut could go w/ both
but u chose w/e poke u want happy thanksgiving

Shuckle November 25th, 2004 2:23 PM

hm... DrumZard pwns.

You'll wanna put the genes in the special defense and attack.

Charizard @ Salac
Adamant/Jolly
-Drum
-Rock Slide
-Return/Filler
-Overheat

Go against special attack, drum, they'll attack, probably activating Salac, and your ready to sweep.

GVG November 25th, 2004 2:42 PM

Xcept if u're against 1 of those Pokes Nathaniel's team is weak against - Rock/Ground types. They will own you. He needs a reliable water Pokemon with above average Defence and good special attack&def. A little more HP won't hurt so Milotic is the best for that particular task.

Shuckle November 25th, 2004 2:43 PM

How about nearly the ONLY for that particular task. =P

Nathaniel Essex November 26th, 2004 2:12 PM

i was thinking absol.

Absol (EVs: 252 Speed/252 Attack)
---
Baton Pass
Swords Dance
Shadow Ball
Return

tooth, sound ok?

Poke November 26th, 2004 2:21 PM

I know all this stuf is against it but you need a peed attacker and the best speed attacker would be Arcanine

kirby00 November 26th, 2004 6:02 PM

wut about blastoise? it has better def, to compensate for lower sp attack. its a good pokemon to have: mirror coat, counter/body slam, yawn/icebeam, surf

Shuckle November 27th, 2004 10:46 AM

I suppose that coul dhappen.
