bascially all you need is max speed with a +Spd nature, the rest can go in to HP and defenses not that they matter much.

I wouldn't lead this guy as stuff with more than 273 Spd such as the common salamence starter will force you to switch out, also give smeagle a salac berry and make sure your HP is divisble by 4.



Sceptile (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Overgrow

Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)

Timid nature pls. and I've been liking the endeavor set recently but, this works fine. Lead with this guy

Salamence (M) @ Choice Band
Trait: Intimidate
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)

Fine

Heracross (M) @ Salac Berry
Trait: Swarm
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Megahorn
- Reversal
- Substitute

Rock Slide over EQ, and instead of reversalering (lol) you might want to go CB due to the lack of a skarmbliss counter, I'll post some stuff if you do.

Alakazam (M) @ Petaya Berry
Trait: Synchronize
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Spd / 252 SAtk
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)

Sneak trick on to there some how, with choice band as the item

Trait: Blaze
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Lonely Nature (+Atk, -Def)

This guy is fine, but, you might want to try:

Sub/Thunder Punch
HP:Ice
Fire Blast
Skyupper Cut

to help out with skarmbliss

:D

overall pretty neat, its just that you don't have any pokemon that can take a hit from salamence

Jolly nature, 252 HP / 252 Spd / 4 SDef and @Salac. Like Husk suggested, don't lead with this. Also, I don't really see what exactly you are going to BP to... mence has CB, while heracross and blaziken will get owned by a tyranitar, but meh.

Sceptile (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Overgrow

needs more Timid nature. Seems ok otherwise. Lead either with this or with Zam.

Trait: Intimidate
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)

Fire Blast > Brick Brake IMO.

Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Megahorn

Your team has a glaring tyranitar weakness, but you still use a reversaller? ._.
Focus Punch/Swords Dance/Megahorn/Rock Slide @Lefties. 132 Atk / 252 Spd / enough hp EVs for 320 hp stat and put the rest in sp.def


Alakazam (M) @ Petaya Berry
Trait: Synchronize
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Spd / 252 SAtk
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)

Needs more psychic and/or recover. Trick-, or encorezam could be fun as well.

Blaziken (M) @ Liechi Berry/Salac Berry
Trait: Blaze
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Lonely Nature (+Atk, -Def)
- Flamethrower
- Reversal
- Rock Slide

lol no. tyranitar's sandstream will screw this up as it would kill heracross also. reversal in OU only works with exeggutor/ludicolo/kingdra support, really. I prefer Sky Uppercut/Overheat/Swords Dance/Rock Slide and @Lefties on this.

I need a little help with Smeargle EVs, and a hold Item. Rate and fix
:D

Tyranitar weak. Aerodactyl is going to 6-0 you as well, imo.
You lack a spinner, a p-hazer, a physical tank and a special sponge, so you might want to fix those, since all-out-offensive teams don't last too long. :/

Mullet October 15th, 2005 8:46 AM

I like never use Spinners, and like so far I haven't run into any T-tars *gasp*. I was going to change Blaziken though.

Sub over Endure? And 252+252+4=508 out of 510. Add 2 EVs somewhere.

Peyata Zam? How does it get to red zone w/out dying? Reflect and maybe Psychic will help. lol a Zam w/out Psychic.

Change Sub to Endure and you have my set. But you can use sub as well. And Salac>Liechi.

:D

No idea about Smeargle. I use a Mime Defend Pass and scopekill.

As for Zam, try either Zam with Psychic, CM and two Element Punches or Psychic, Reflect, Recover, and Fire Punch.
with CM is a CM Zam
with Reflect is an E4 Zam

leafgreen386 October 15th, 2005 11:17 AM

I would rate, if everything hadn't already been covered by Torkoal and Husk. In the mean time, I can't help but laugh at this post by E4 protector.

Except that Mence has a CB.

Sure! Let's use a Sp.Sweeper with all of its moves having an 80 base power or less!

It's called a Choice Bander... >_>

Yes. Sub over Endure. By most is considered to work better than relying on the chance that an attack might or might not "OHKO" it. And what do you plan on accomplishing with thoise 2 EVs, when it takes 4 to make another stat point?

Quote:

lol a Zam w/ Reflect

You're set? I don't think you were the one to invent Endreving, kid.

Ham October 15th, 2005 11:26 AM

Alakazam with Reflect isn't called E4 zam, it's called ****.

Mullet October 15th, 2005 6:26 PM

Zam doesn't need Psychic, so it's not lol. I've seen plenty of Zam's with 3 Elemetal Punches+CM. Zam can't really use any item without dieing. To fragile to use Lefties, and even with Trick+CB, one physical attack+CB boost, and he dies.

c_dog October 16th, 2005 8:10 AM

husk covered pretty much everything but i'm gonna give my opinion anyway

Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)might wanna go with +speed nature here, just because you're gonna spore anyway. jolly or timid works.
- Baton Pass
- Belly Drum
- Spore
- Substitute
you can spore, sub, then belly, thus activating salac, then baton pass.

Sceptile (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Overgrow
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Spd / 252 SAtk
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Hidden Power [Ice]
- Leaf Blade
- Leech Seed

timid nature definitely on this guy.

Salamence (M) @ Choice Band
Trait: Intimidate
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Brick Break
- Earthquake
- Hidden Power [Flying]
- Rock Slide
looks fine. may consider fire blast somewhere but then it needs ev's in sp.att, so it's better not.

Heracross (M) @ Salac Berry
Trait: Swarm
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Megahorn
- Reversal
- Substitute
you have two choices with heracross.. CB or reversal. if you're going with reversal it's better to replace earthquake/megahorn with swordsdance, and consider hp rock/rockslide as alternatives.

Alakazam (M) @ Petaya Berry/lum berry
Trait: Synchronize
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Spd / 252 SAtk
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Calm Mind
- Fire Punch/encore
- Ice Punch
- Thunderpunch
i'd go with timid on this guy too. encore is an alternative, as is [email protected]

Blaziken (M) @ Liechi Berry/Salac Berry
Trait: Blaze
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Lonely Nature (+Atk, -Def)
- Flamethrower
- Reversal
- Rock Slide

hmm, another reversal'er? in which case you might want to make heracross CB. sandstorm ruins 2 of your pokemon(well, heracross to a lesser extent as it still has swordsdance to boost its attack).

I need a little help with Smeargle EVs, and a hold Item. Rate and fix
:D


Mullet October 16th, 2005 8:25 AM

I've totally changed it now though. Hera is my only Reversaler, and it works, yay!:D
