Leafeon is NU!?!?!

[Ooka]

So when I asked for a Pokemon to make a team around, Loto suggested Leafeon and said he wanted to help. yaya get ready, cause Leafeon is about to own. ;)

Tyranitar@Lum Berry
Ability: Sand Stream
EVs: 252 HP/42 Atk/216 SDef
Careful nature (+SDef, -SAtk)
» Stealth Rock
» Crunch
» Stone Edge
» Earthquake

This guy is awesome, and also thanks to dark_eflness for creating this set. So it comes out, sets up SR, and proceeds to hurt things. It can take status the first turn thanks to the Lum Berry, and Crunch / Stone Edge are for STAB. Earthquake hits stuff like Heatran, although Stone Edge hits him pretty hard as well.

Basically, this guy provides a reliable way to get up Stealth Rock, however, it also allows me to hit my opponents hard with a 314 Attack stat as well as tank special hits with Tyranitar incredible 478 Special Defense.

Leafeon@Life Orb
Ability: Leaf Guard
EVs: 252 Atk/4 Def/252 Spd
Jolly nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
» Swords Dance
» Leaf Blade
» X-Scissor
» Quick Attack

OSNAP. This guy comes out and wreaks havoc on the opponents team. Seriously. Once Magnezone gets the Steels out of the way, and Gyara helps take out some Dragons, this guy is free to do whatever he so pleases. X-Scissor over Return for coverage. (This guy does like 76% to Gyara at +1@LO [After a SD and Intimidate factoring in], so with SR up, he's toast.)

Gyarados@Leftovers
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 252 HP/252 Def/4 SDef
Impish nature (+Def, -SAtk)
» Waterfall
» Stone Edge
» Sleep Talk
» Rest

This guy takes out Dragons for the most part, although I've found it has some trouble with Kingdra, so I've been thinking about running Outrage >> Stone Edge since I won't get locked when I'm asleep.

Magnezone@Choice Scarf
Ability: Magnet Pull
EVs: 4 HP/252 Spd/252 SAtk
Naive nature (+Spd, -SDef)
» Thunderbolt
» Hidden Power [Fire]
» Flash Cannon
» Signal Beam

This guy is mah steel killer. He loves to come in on Trick Jirachi as well as non-SS Foretress, of course you never know, maybe Rotom could try to Trick it. ;) This thing is pretty sweet though, kills Scizor and the likes too.

Rotom-h@Choice Scarf
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 4 HP/252 Spd/252 SAtk
Timid nature (+Spd, -Atk)
» Thunderbolt
» Overheat
» Trick
» Hidden Power [Fighting]

This is the Trick support and anti-spinner of the team. Yeah it's pursuit bait, but Hidden Power + Overheat helps that out a lot. Overheat being an OHKO, and Hidden Power not. :(

Tentacruel@Leftovers
Ability: Liquid Ooze
EVs: 252 HP/120 Def/136 SDef
Calm nature (+SDef, -Atk)
» Surf
» Rapid Spin
» Hidden Power [Electric]
» Toxic Spikes

This guy is the RS of the team, and sets up Toxic Spikes. Since flying Dragons and Steels are what I'm aiming to take out, I figured Toxic Spikes are a nice addition to the team as well.

So, um, CroDra gives me problems, so that's why I'm wanting Outrage over Stone Edge. However, then Gyara would give me even more problems, so I dunno, just help me out. :( (And don't suggest getting rid of Leafeon, it's funny when I actually DO get a sweep off with an NU Pokemon in OU)

 

[Zaradon]

You might wanna consider this Starmie over Tentacruel( or that's atleast what i'd do)

Starmie
Life orb
Timid nature
EV: 252 SpAtk 252 Spe

Rapid spin
Surf
Ice beam
T-Bolt

However this cant set up Toxic spikes as Tenta can.

Gl with the team ^^

 

[Ooka]

Alright, well, just give me a valid reason for switching and I'd be more than happy to consider it. ;)

 

[Syaoran]

Nice idea.

Explosion > Signal Beam on Magnezone
Charge Beam Rotom could do better here - not walled by Blissey and can be dangerous with the help of TSpikes
Roar > Stone Edge on Gyara. You could try it, helps with SR damage and TSpikes support.
I would also recommend the physical mix Jirachi set with Iron Head / Ice Punch / Fire Punch / Thunderbolt or Grass Knot (depends who is more annoying - Gyara or Swampert). It's good to have another steel to take on Outrage.

 

[Ooka]

Alright Explosion and Roar will be added, but is Charge Beam Rotom such a good idea with Sandstorm up? I mean, I basically don't have any recovery at all in that case. I'd be more for it if I had some Wish support. :/

 

[Zaradon]

Roar > Stone Edge on Gyara.

No Gyara do need Stone edge. Ooka here's a reason for Starmie:

As far as i see you dont have any ice-type move, and Starmie can use Bolt&Beam combo together with Surf to get ULTIMATE cover against like everything. Also you dont lose your Rapin spinner as Starmie also has it. Also Starmie got great Speed.

I hope that cleared my suggestion up ^^

I have SR, Thunderbolt, Stone Edge, HP [Fire], and Overheat, which hits (I believe) everything that Ice Beam would. :/ And I do lose my Toxic Spikes, which work pretty well alongside Gyara with Roar after I take out stuff that doesn't get hit by it.

 

[Syaoran]

I forgot to say the Jirachi I suggested should be instead of Rotom. Even with sandstorm Rotom could survive with leftovers, but still, Jirachi could be better suited for your team.

 

[Ooka]

Darn, losing my Antispinner. XD

All right, I'll get started with updating the team tonight. ;)
