Uber Rain Team Help
Deoxys-Speed @ Focus Sash
Trait: Pressure EVs: 252 Spd / 252 Atk / 4 SDef Jolly Nature - Stealth Rock - Spikes / Magic Coat - Fire Punch - ExtremeSpeed My Lead. Hazard setter or ability to block other Deo-S with Magic Coat. Which should i go with? Fire Punch for Forretress and Ferrothorn. Espeed to deal some good damage before it dies. Kyogre @ Leftovers Trait: Drizzle EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 HP / 4 SDef Modest Nature - Calm Mind - Surf - Thunder - Ice Beam Kyogre with the classic CM set. Pretty good for setting up and can take a few hits. Kabutops @ Leftovers Trait: Swift Swim EVs: 252 Spd / 252 Atk / 4 HP Adamant Nature - Aqua Jet / Rapid Spin - Swords Dance - Stone Edge - Waterfall A sweeper. Aqua jet for priority but Rapid Spin for a spinner. SD to pack a punch. Stone Edge for STAB and Waterfall for STAB Arceus @ Muscle Band Trait: Multitype EVs: 252 Atk / 252 HP / 4 SDef Adamant Nature - Swords Dance - Earthquake - ExtremeSpeed - Recover My main sweeper is SD Espeed Arceus with muscle band Tornadus-Therian (M) @ Choice Scarf Trait: Regenerator EVs: 252 Spd / 252 SAtk / 4 Atk Hasty Nature - U-turn - Hurricane - Air Slash - Focus Blast Scarfed Torn-T With Hurricane Kyurem-White @ Choice Specs Trait: Turboblaze EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 HP / 4 SDef Modest Nature - Draco Meteor - Earth Power - Ice Beam - Dragon Pulse Specs Kyurem is OP :P |
Overall, your team isn't too bad, as all of these Pokemon are quite common in the Uber tier. I'd recommend having a Steel-type to add to your party. Not only the fact that they tank the Dark, Rock, or Dragon-type attacks that none of your Pokemon resist, but they do well generally in rain, as the rain neutralizes their Fire-type weakness. Forretress is my recommendation for an entry hazard setter to replace Deoxys-S. Its typing synergizes well with Kabutops, as Kabutops can tank all the Fire-type attacks that Forretress hates.
I also notice that there are no status moves in any of your Pokemon's party. The aforementioned Forretress has the bulk to set up Toxic as well as Toxic Spikes. At least that is one status move that can trouble your foes. Another problem is that there are no spinblockers (in other words Ghost types), so I'd recommend having one of those on your team as well if you want to keep hazards on the opposing side. I hope this review helps. Good luck in your battles. |
Base 110 Special Attack isn't exactly the best stat by Uber standards, but it isn't horrible either, so Tornadus-T is better off with Choice Specs, given its already high Speed.
Giratina (any forme) or Ghost Arceus are spin blockers that work well with this team, though I'm not sure which one of your Pokemon I should replace with any of them: Giratina-A: -Rest -Sleep Talk -Roar/Dragon Tail -Will-o-Wisp/Dragon Tail Nature: Impish/Careful EVs: 248 HP/252 Def/8 SDef or 248 HP/8 Def/252 SDef Item: Leftovers Ability: Pressure or -Calm Mind -Dragon Pulse -Aura Sphere/Thunder -Rest Nature: Modest EVs: 252 HP/252 SAtk/4 Spe Item: Leftovers Ability: Pressure or -Rest -Sleep Talk -Calm Mind -Dragon Pulse Nature: Bold EVs: 248 HP/252 Def/8 SDef Item: Leftovers Ability: Pressure Giratina-O: -Draco Meteor -Shadow Sneak -Dragon Tail -Earthquake/Will-o-Wisp Nature: Naughty/Lonely EVs: 248 Atk/252 SAtk/8 Spe Item: Griseous Orb or -Substitute -Calm Mind -Dragon Pulse/Shadow Ball -Aura Sphere/Shadow Ball/Thunder Nature: Modest EVs: 212 HP/72 Def/224 SAtk Item: Griseous Orb or -Rest -Sleep Talk -Calm Mind -Dragon Pulse Nature: Modest EVs: 104 HP/252 Def/148 SAtk/4 Spe Item: Griseous Orb or -Rest -Sleep Talk -Dragon Tail -Roar Nature: Impish EVs: 248 HP/252 Def/8 Spe Item: Griseous Orb or -Substitute -Dragon Tail -Earthquake -Shadow Sneak/Will-o-Wisp/Outrage Nature: Adamant EVs: 164 HP/252 Atk/4 Def/4 SDef/84 Spe Item: Griseous Orb or -Calm Mind -Dragon Pulse -Aura Sphere/Earth Power -Thunder/Shadow Ball/Thunder Wave Nature: Timid EVs: 252 SAtk/4 SDef/252 Spe Item: Griseous Orb Arceus-Ghost: -Calm Mind -Judgment -Focus Blast -Recover Nature: Timid EVs: 252 HP/4 SAtk/252 Spe Item: Spooky Plate or -Swords Dance -Shadow Force/Shadow Claw -Brick Break -Recover Nature: Jolly EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe Item: Spooky Plate |
I think that Giratina-A will be the best partner, as its typing pairs up well with Normal Arceus and Kabutops. I'd recommend substituting Kyurem for it. You might also need a move to hit opposing Normal-arceus, and a phazer to stop set-up sweepers and rack up additional damage to your opponent's team.
Here's the set in which I think will give you the best results: Giratina-A: -Rest -Sleep Talk -Dragon Tail -Will-o-Wisp Nature: Impish/Careful EVs: 248 HP/252 Def/8 SDef or 248 HP/8 Def/252 SDef Item: Leftovers Ability: Pressure Will-O-Wisp puts a timer on Steel and Poison types that resist Toxic, whereas Dragon Tail avoids it becoming Taunt bait. You could put Aura Sphere and Dragon Pulse to replace Rest-Talk, but that should be done with Giratina-O with a Careful nature. |
Thanks for the help guys! I have decided to swap Deoxys-S for Forretress, because like Boilurn said it has good synergy with kabutops. Also i have swapped KW for Giratina-A as a shuffler. Thanks for the help guys :]
