ok, this is my first attempt at a hail team, but it's for a monotype tourney, so don't say "you have too many Ice-types! change it all!"
also, the tourney is Mono-doubles, but allows 2 non-mono pokemon, that's why Clefable/Tentacruel are there...
anyways, here goes!
ok, these are my two leads, and quite simply, Abomasnow Leads with Hail, and opens up for my team... Mamoswine will rock up, and 'Snow will Sub/Protect... after that, Mamoswine will sweep, and Abomasnow will stall...
Walrein @ Leftovers
Trait: Ice Body
EVs: 220 HP / 252 Def / 36 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Protect
- Blizzard
- Surf
- Substitute
Ah, StallRein, what would a Hail team be without him... now I've edited this to suit him better to doubles, but other than that, not much difference to the origional, I may swap Sub for Toxic, but that's the only change i'd make
Clefable @ Flame Orb
Trait: Magic Guard
EVs: 252 HP / 152 Def / 104 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Thunder Wave
- Trick
- Heal Bell
- Wish
This is a Trickster+Encore combo, T-wave is for Froslass, and Heal Bell/Wish is for herself... I may swap Heal Bell for Encore, but Encore isn't much of a strategy in doubles...
Froslass @ Leftovers
Trait: Snow Cloak
EVs: 248 HP / 228 Def / 32 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Substitute
- Confuse Ray
- Spikes
- Shadow Ball
simple hail annoyer, try to make the opponent sa unlikely to attack as possible... I chose Shadow ball for STAB over Blizzard because I already have 2 pokemon with Blizzard, and 1 with Ice Shard, but I have no Ghost moves...
Tentacruel @ Black Sludge
Trait: Liquid Ooze
EVs: 252 HP / 120 Def / 136 SDef
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Rapid Spin
- Surf
- Sludge Bomb
- Toxic Spikes
My Rapid Spinner... I may swap T-spikes for something else, any suggestions?
PLEASE GIVE CONSTRUCTIVE CRITISISM ONLY!!! I tend to get offended by Flame-like Critisism, and may respond in such a fasion, for both yours and my sake, if you don't have something constructive or supportive to say, don't say it...
