You say without trading for Ruby or Sapphire. Does this mean you're using LeafGreen or FireRed? Or are you actually using Ruby and Sapphire?

Hey all! I was wondering, since I recently restarted my team from hatchlings, if someone could give me some suggestions for EV training? I've worked it out, but I don't trust myself all that much...

Metagross (Adamant)
140 HP, 252 Atk, 28 SpDef, 88 Speed
(I'm wondering if I should sacrifice some to put into Defense?)

Steelix (Impish)
252 HP, 252 SpDef, 6 Atk
(This guy can hit hard, but not too hard... so I decided to pump Evs into his Special Defense instead of Attack. His defense is already insane, and with maxed SpDef, he could very well be untouchable)

Aggron (Adamant)
252 HP, 252 Atk, 6 Def or Sp Def (not like it'll do all that much)
(I originally had 252 in Defence, and had an Aggron with nearly 500 Defence stats... that's cool, to show off. But I decided that Aggron's base stats in defense are plenty, and decided to jack up his attack in it's place)

Magneton (Modest)
6 Def, 252 SpAtk, 252 Speed
(I'm thinking of breaking up Speed to put a bit into SpDef, but I'm not sure)

Skarmory (Impish)
252 HP, 192 Def, 64 SpDef
(Really no other way you can go with this guy)

Scizor (Impish) [Baton Passer]
252 HP, 252 SpDef, 6 Def
(As a baton passer, I want defense, defense, defense...)

Mawile (Impish) [Baton Passer if I don't use Scizor]
252 HP, 252 Speed, 6 Def
(Mawile is a cutey, but it really lacks exceptional stats... that's where the speed comes into play)

And before people start barking at me, yes, this is intended to be an all Steel team. I know, I know... common weaknesses gallore. But I'm a big boy, I know what I'm getting into. :-)

Ev's most of the time depend on the moveset you're using.

Starmie @ Leftovers
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 240 HP / 52 Def / 176 Spd / 40 SAtk
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Rapid Spin
- Recover
- Reflect
- Surf

Because Tankish Starmies are cool.

Swampert (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Torrent
EVs: 240 HP / 16 Atk / 96 Def / 60 SAtk / 96 SDef
Relaxed Nature (+Def, -Spd)
- Curse
- Earthquake
- Ice Beam
- Rest

You can make it Sassy, if you'd like.

Blaziken (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Blaze
EVs: 80 HP / 96 Atk / 184 Spd / 148 SAtk
Mild Nature (+SAtk, -Def)
- Flamethrower
- Hidden Power [Grass]
- Sky Uppercut
- Thunderpunch

For your team star, I chose the special sweeping version.

Skarmory (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Sturdy
EVs: 244 HP / 56 Atk / 92 Def / 20 Spd / 96 SDef
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Drill Peck
- Roar
- Spikes
- Substitute

You can put the Attack into Def.

Celebi @ Leftovers
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 240 HP / 96 Def / 36 Spd / 136 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Heal Bell
- Leech Seed
- Psychic
- Recover

This might be hard to pull off, as this team barely has any good Dugtrio coverage. HP Grass might be a good option over Leech Seed in that regard.

Snorlax (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Thick Fat
EVs: 140 HP / 120 Atk / 136 Def / 112 SDef
Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk)
- Body Slam
- Curse
- Rest
- Shadow Ball

A bit of a change in EVs for me here. I took out some Atk and SDef and put it into Def.

I'll be testing it myself to make sure it gets the Umby Seal of Approval. Hopefully this should hold you for a while though.

May i have a water mono team pls. It should have a swampert, haze/roar and mirror coat. Rain dance and rapid spin may be a nice addition also.

This is for NB and hopefully, if proved good, goes in-game when diamond and pearl comes out (with a few tweaks of course).

Thx.

Ludicolo (M) @ Lum Berry / Leftovers / Petaya Berry

Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Giga Drain / Hidden Power [Grass] / Leech Seed
- Ice Beam
- Rain Dance
- Surf / Hydro Pump

Gyarados (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Intimidate
EVs: 124 HP / 192 Atk / 168 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Dragon Dance
- Earthquake
- Hidden Power [Flying/Rock]

Thunder Wave might be intersting here.

Trait: Volt Absorb
EVs: 40 HP / 72 Def / 108 SDef
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Ice Beam
- Thunder / Thunderbolt

Let me try to fill those spots for you.


Starmie @ Leftovers
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 Spd / 252 SAtk / 4 HP
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Thunderbolt
- Surf
- Rapid Spin
- Recover


Milotic @ Leftovers
Trait: Marvel Scale
EVs: 212 HP / 184 Def / 92 SAtk / 20 SDef
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Surf
- Toxic
- Rest
- Sleep Talk


Looks a bit too standard to me, but hey, why not... Not sure about Milo's EVs though.

Those were the two pokemon I was considering, only we would be using the cool tankish Rapid Spinning starmie:

Starmie @ Leftovers
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 236 HP / 88 Def / 144 Spd / 40 SAtk
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Surf / Psychic
- Recover
- Reflect
- Rapid Spin

Psychic could actually be decent since it's only using one move.

edit: let me fix that Milotic, btw:

EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 Spd
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)

That's cooler for a sleep talking set.

tankish starmie?? Not the 1st thing u think about when u hear about starmie.
Wouldn't Gyrados suffer against hazers and status users without taunt?

Yeah, I agree with the Starmie-related statement. Cloyster would do better as a spinner, and spiker, too, since it's got great defense.


Cloyster @ Leftovers
Trait: Shell Armor
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SDef / 4 Def
Mild Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Rest / Explosion
- Surf / Ice Beam
- Spikes
- Rapid Spin

Cloyster rocks as a Spikespinner.


As for the Gyarados statement, doubtful that hazers will be a problem. Few teams have (p)hazers (discounting Skarmory), and not many would bring up a status user against Gyarados. Even if they did, the free DD during the switch could prove fatal for whatever switched in anyway, unless it is a wall. But yes, Taunt is a good option. Torment could also be used to really screw your opponents up. Plus, it's a good little trick to use against other buffers. Or to allow you to predict something, like a T-Bolt, to switch to Lanturn.

Hey all, I want your expertise. That and I'm editing to cover up a death-penalty punishable crime.

Can someone give me the best Steel team EVER?

That'd be for a separate thread grace ;)

As for the starmie comment, Cloyster or Starmie could work, it's the requestor's choice. Spikes would be a nice addition, and Gyarados could make an interesting use out of Roar then.

Yes, Tankish Starmie is probably not the first thing you think of, but it's awesome and its one of the kind of unstandard things that I like to use. If you really look at it though, Starmie with Rapid Spin doesn't really sweep much, and often won't require much SAtk. Therefore you could transfer the SAtk to HP. Since speed is often a factor of sweeping, it becomes variable to your choice in EVs as well. It's just a philosophy I hold, I'm not forcing it on anyone.

I see what u mean. O.o Starmie took onli 60% damage from a fully cursed lax with reflect.
Btw, I treid it out. Lose quite badly to a ludi and skarm bliss, and once a belly drummer.
Also, Lanturn's amd Gyrados's EVs are abit out.... and Swampert cannot counter a hp grass if it gets knocked out in one hit. Cloyster also has too little hp and i sweak to fighting and rock, making it a mediocore P tank, much like a lousy Foretress.
