So before even attempting using this team in BT, I thought I would talk to the good ol' members of strategy and movesets. This team has a much better strategy than the last, and has erased 2 team members and left only Garchomp standing with 2 new Pocket Monsters. Hippowdon and Weezing have been replaced with Mesprit and Lucario, and now I'm looking for even more improvements. I know this team isn't perfect, YET >:O.
Team Overview
_______________________
_______________________
(?)
Xylophone ; Mesprit @ Light Clay
Bold Nature / Levitate
252 HP / 164 Def / 92 SpA
Thunderbolt
Ice Beam
Light Screen
Reflect
Reason:
I wanted something somewhat bulky, had Dual-Screen Support, and had good SpA skills for my lead. At first I considered Uxie, but the folks at BT Junkies changed me to Mesprit because of the Higher SpA. Thunderbolt and Ice Beam for coverage, and believe it or not, is a great Gyarados counter, zapping it into fainting. New nicknames are appreciated.
(Female)
Orchestra ♪ ; Lucario @ Choice Specs
Modest Nature / Inner Focus
252 Spe / 252 SpA / 6 HP
Vacuum Wave
Aura Sphere
Flash Cannon
Dark Pulse
Reason:
This is the set that laughs at all those Double Team Lapras and Dewgong. I have modified the original moves just a tad to suit BT, Dark Pulse and Dragon Pusle (Two pulses eh? XD). Vacuum Wave for priority, Aura Sphere for 100% Accuracy, Dark Pulse for Psychic and friends, and if you haven't gotten it yet, the nicknames are for Percussion instruments I play and plain ol' music.
(Male)
Tympani ; Garchomp @ Lum Berry
Jolly Nature / Sand Veil
252 Spe / 252 Atk / 6 HP
Swords Dance
Substitute
Outrage
Earthquake
Reason:
Good Bread and butter Chomp set, with a BT twist. Thanks to BeachBoy for this set, Swords Dance to setup, Substitute to avoid OHKO, Outrage > Dragon Claw for power and STAB. Earthquake for STAB and general attacking. Lum Berry for longer Outrage, or to block some status from keeping my sweep. This guy usually comes out after Xylophone and Orchestra have cleared the field, he takes care of the rest.
