It probably does need more attack, but I couldn't fine a place to fit it in, considering I'm trying that 252 HP thing.

That Swampert is really cool actually, as Protect allows it to regain health while your opponent wastes his PP.

and as for grandmaster, no offense, of course, but I'm quite confident that you're no match for most of the teams I make. I think Mullet can back me up on that

I'm quite sure its alright to make side comments and questions. After all, a topic has the ability to digress just a bit.

and ice_blade, I make breif cameo appearances, but I'm usually at PokeRealm, Wicked's server, Morlord, or Smogon when no ones on

I've only seen you battle. You are good though.

It's not my fault that I'm always busy or don't feel like battling when you get on.

I'd just run Light Screen > Metal Sound the entire time and drop the SDef EVs into your HP (and whatever doesn't go into Max Lefties drop into your SAtk). Looking at the rest of the team, I can see why you're running HP Grass.


Vaporeon (M) @ Leftovers ** Pine Sol
Trait: Water Absorb
EVs: 188 HP / 220 Def / 100 SAtk
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Ice Beam

Sure. Protect > Haze, this has nothing really useful to be hazing, if you really think about it.

Metagross @ Choice Band ** DJ Mash
Trait: Clear Body
EVs: 76 HP / 252 Atk / 96 Def / 84 SDef
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Earthquake

Sure.

Swampert (M) @ Leftovers ** Tu Madre

EVs: 240 HP / 52 Atk / 88 Def / 24 SAtk / 104 SDef
Brave Nature (+Atk, -Spd)

*Ewws at the EVs* Pretty cool MS setup, tho.

Snorlax (M) @ Leftovers ** Ruben Studdard
Trait: Thick Fat
EVs: 252 HP / 56 Atk / 160 Def / 40 SDef
Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk)
- Double-Edge
- Rest
- Shadow Ball
- Sleep Talk

more Atk, more SDef, less Def and HP, please.

Forretress (M) @ Leftovers ** Marble Man
Trait: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP / 52 Atk / 204 Def
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Protect
- Rapid Spin
- Spikes

Needs Counter for a Protect set. Honestly. Drop Spikes. And I didn't get Protect from anybody ;)


I think I just impressed myself.
Something just feels off about the balance of this team .-.

Hey PYro, didn't I first mention something about Counter and PRotect on one set? And your criticism denied me of that >_<

And it really is off balance. Needs a phazer.

Something that use Roar or Whirlwind to stop a Poke from using stat up moves, shuffle Pokes out until you catch one that you can kill, or supporting Spikes (Skarm and Donphan are the most common). Also something that uses Haze to get rid of stat upping moves (Weezing is the most common, Vaporeon may also be used as a phazer).

Actually Hazer and Phazer are two different things, Hazer being a pokemon using Haze, and Phazer being what Mullet just mentioned before. Phazer = pseudo-hazer.

(Ok, why is everything black? =x)

Yes, Umby, I did originally say that Protect/Counter was stupid, but that was because A. I was still unsure of the BoahHera team mechanics with Spikes (i've almost got all the bugs worked out, it's working pretty sexy-like, especially without Spikes) and I was also sorely reminded of how much Protect/Counter Pert seemed to fail .-.

Please forgive me for confusing you. The cool moveset is:
Protect/Rest
Counter
Earthquake
Rapid Spin

BTW: Why am I not included in the Strategy Dream Team? I'm the "lol random effectiveness" around here.

Use four words per post, please. Do not bypass the twenty-five character thing. It's against the rules. It's not hard to make a post more intelligent than that. ;x

As for you, Synchronize, not necessarily so - not to the point where it becomes a discussion of something else, with not one bit of ontopicness in the posts.

Umby phazer can be used to describe them both.

imo one or two off-topic posts don't hurt a topic, especially with so many different replies. Besides, it's natural for a conversation to digress for at least a second. Heck, we're doing so right now.

Anything that forces a switch can be a pseudohazer as well, for example using Charm to lower a physical attacker's Attack can make them useless so they'd have to switch, or putting a Houndoom in front of Wobbuffet as a very specific example (since it can't do anything to Houndoom).
