Looking for a change. (RMT)
 
I have a team that I finished recently, but it's simply an old overused standard among competitive wi-fi players, this team has won many battles for me, but I'd like to have a team that is less about conforming because it works and more about being a creative surprise. I'd like to see some changes on this team in anyway you guys see fit, whether it's picking it apart, or replacing pokemon. Have at it. Thanks.

Look at my trainer card.

Some of the Poke's are creative surprises that work.

Just watch out for ice.

Samson June 17th, 2007 9:28 PM

well what more do you want? your team is just fine.

although, your bronzong could perhaps use more sp def evs than def evs. with levitate, it's only weak to fire attacks, which a majority are known as special attacks. also, nasty plot and calm mind are more common than swords dance/bulk up.

other than that, you should really just think of some pokemon you like and start making teams. you're not the only person who's getting tired of using this metagame-whore team.

Mozart June 18th, 2007 9:55 AM

Thanks for the input, yeah I guess I'll raise an updated bronzong, those spe.def evs make a lot of sense. And yeah, I know my team is fine now, I'm just getting tired of fighting people with the same damn team as me. It's boring.

Mozart June 19th, 2007 6:13 AM

Anyone have any ideas for good replacements on this team? I wanted to incorperate a gengar if possible, or eevee evolutions. And does anyone think a could possibly adapt a snorlax to fix the spot of blissey, but with more power. Thanks

Nightofshadow June 19th, 2007 6:20 AM

Your team is pretty standard.... I agree about the metagame whoring though. It seems pretty whack.

sims796 June 19th, 2007 6:29 AM

I'm sorry. I agree with everyone else. You have a very workable team, but I understand what you mean. If your winning battles the same way everyone else is, it kinda defeats the purpose of playing the game. Hey if we're all using the same thing, then the game is all generic.

Mozart June 22nd, 2007 7:52 AM

*bump* I was thinking about replacing the Blissey with a Snorlax for more of an Atk base and Less of a wall, does this seem viable.

Samson June 22nd, 2007 11:12 AM

only thing you should want Snorlax for this generation is Counter + Selfdestruct. besides, 3/6 of your pokemon are physical attackers. i personally hate blissey, so of course i'd say hell yeah, get rid of it. but otherwise, you don't need another phyiscal attacker, especially one that shouldn't be doing much physical attacking.

Mozart June 22nd, 2007 6:27 PM

damn, your right. Poor snorlax, I love that dude. Guess I'm doomed to wander Wi-fi with this Cookie Cutter team. Atleast its a winner. haha

sims796 June 23rd, 2007 5:30 AM

Maybe you could replace one of your beefed-up pokemon with Snorlax? Or would that just mess up your team...

Mozart June 25th, 2007 9:26 PM

What do you think I could replace Blissey with then? (Sorry about the sparatic posts, I have horrible working hours)

Samson June 25th, 2007 10:05 PM

how do you feel about Hypno? he's fit for taking all kinds of hits, inducing sleep, and handing out all kinds of hits. his HP is definitely not as high as Blisseys and neither is his Sp. Def, but his ability, Insomnia, plays a very interesting hand in Wifi battles. and aside from that, he's one of my faves =D

Mozart July 27th, 2007 12:42 PM

I don't mind hypno at all, could you possibly recommend a moveset and nature for me? That would be great.

Angelic Diablo July 27th, 2007 4:31 PM

Umm...
