I am sure this has been done before but i've always been the nostalgic type when it comes to pokemon always favouring the original 150 as they were the ones i grew up with. My aim is to use strictly Kanto based pokemon from both OU and UU to hopefully put in a strong competitive effort in the OU teir.
Sadly this means i don't have access to pokemon with either a steal or dark typing which i guess sucks in a way, but hey! who cares right!? as long as i have moves that can counter darks and steal pokes i should do alright...right!?
Just something to bare in mind firstly....i dont have access to HG/SS i only have platinum and fire red/leaf green games and i will be battling over nintendo wifi.
The TEAM:
The lead
Machamp@lum berry/leftovers
No Guard
Adamant
252hp/160Atk/90Spd
Ice Punch
Bullet Punch
Dynamic Punch
Stone Edge
My Rocky Balboa of the team leads with a nice tried and tested set. Start with Dynamic Punch in most cases for the guaranteed confusion and huge stab damage and if the opponent is sashed i finish them off with bullet punch. The other moves are used as general type coverage. Lum berry or leftovers seem like a good idea for this set due to its bulk.
Physical Attacker/Decent Special wall
Snorlax@Leftovers
Thick Fat
Careful
4Hp/252Atk/252S.Def
Bodyslam
Earthquake
Crunch
Fire Punch
One of my favourite Pokemon the big bad mofo that it is.....Snorlax! I can use this guy to come in on many special sweepers to take the blow and hit back hard with one of its wide range of attacks. Bodyslam the best option in my opinion as the para-hax is important to alot of my team as many are quite slow. Earthquake for Metagross and other steels, crunch for ghosts and fire punch for possible scizor or grass type switch ins.
Sadly i don't have access to Self-destruct.
Physical wall/Status User/Blow up in your face
Weezing@Leftovers
Levitate
Relaxed
252HP/176Def/80Spa
Thunderbolt
Flamethrower
Explosion
Will-o-wisp
Is this guy underestimated or what!?
Being Under used and Under estimated is what i thrive on! this guy is great physical wall with great crippling abilities and people rarely expect to see him in OU which is always useful against unprepared teams.
He adds some Special attacks to my physical based team and is a good option to bring in on a good amount of physical sweepers like gyarados and scizor.
Physical Sweeper
Gyarados@Life orb/Leftovers
Intimidate
Adamant
252Atk/4Def/252Spe
Dragon Dance
Waterfall
Bounce
Stone Edge
Easy to bring in, set up a Dragon Dance and sweep teams. Everyone who has tried one knows it works well.
Bulky Physical Sweeper
Dragonite@Leftovers/Life orb
Inner Focus
Adamant
224HP/84Atk/200Spe
Dragon Dance
Dragon Claw
Roost
Earthquake
Another huge favourite of mine and a damn good pokemon! Playing to its bulky strengths the BulkyDD Dragonite can take alot of punishment, hit hard and fast after a Dragon Dance and can roost its health back if it is in need. Very useful late game when all the ice using pokemon are ko'd.
Revenge Killer
Dugtrio@life Orb
Arena Trap
Jolly
4Hp/252Atk/252 Spe
Earthquake
Sucker Punch/Night Slash
Aerial Ace
Stone Edge
The Joker of my Pack. Dugtrio is awesome. This guy can turn games around if used late game when the opponents pokemon have been worn down already. Its fraililty is often too much of an issue for others hence why its UU so again its another pokemon many won't expect to see.
Well thats it! Any comments are greatly appreciated. You may have noticed i still haven't decided on some moves and held items so if anyone has any input on them i would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance
