Adamant works here. A pinch berry is a great item, or focus sash. If you use focus sash, you'd need to get rid of substitute.

Electrive @ Magnet
Adament Nature

EVS: 252 Attack/ 252 Speed/ 6 HP
Moves:
Thunder Punch
Cross Chop

Magnet? Nononononononononononononononononno. No magnet. It is the most useless item you can possibly give Vire. Ice punch and EQ in the last two slots, and expert belt as the item.

Alakazam @ Choice Specs
Timid Nature
Trait: Synchronize
EVS: 252 Speed/ 252 Sp. Atk/ 6 HP
Moves:
Psychic
Focus Blast
Shadow Ball
Recover

Recover? Nonononononononononononononononono. Alakazam is far too fragile for recover, and gets even worse with choice specs. Energy ball over recover. Otherwise it is fine.

so yeah, i need some help with electrive, but other then that, what do you think of it?

Despite my "nonononononononnnonononono"s, this team isn't so bad. I advise taking out ninjask...get a BPer that helps both pokemon. Zam doesn't really need anymore speed than it has...get something that can take hits, like cradily or milotic. And yes, speed boost is ninjask's ability.

i like alakazams stats but shouldnt you teach electivire learn thunderbolt or thunder and earthquake and teach alakazam protect instead of focus blast because alakazam isnt that stong on the attack stat and when electivire hits earthquake with the attack hes got that will do good damage

 

[Shiraishi]

Thunder is no. Anti already suggested Earthquake on 'Vire. Protect on Alakazam is foolishless. It NEEDS focus blast.

What the hell...

Don't listen to this guy, listen to APCW. Vire is a physical sweeper, so why would you use Tbolt or Thunder? :cross-eye T-Punch, Ice Punch, Cross Chop, and EQ should be the moveset. Pretty standard, I use it on my Vire and it rapes.

As APCW said, you'll wanna go with a physical and special sweeper, like your Vire and Zam. But I'd put in a mixed wall as the 3rd slot. Something like Dusknoir or Umbreon.

Go with Dusknoir, it can take hits, and then deal them back with a base attack stat of 100

 

[Shiraishi]

Haffey, Electivire is better off as a mixed sweeper actually so Thunderbolt is the best choice. It kills of Skarmory/Forretress/Weezing..need I say more? But using Thunder on it is pretty stupid.

 

[Anti]

You are misleading the thread starter. We aren't trying to be jerks, but your advice was horrible.

However haffey, thunderbolt is often used for skarmbliss killing...but since this is 3 v 3, I doubt you'll see any of that.

EDIT: Yes, dusknoir makes an excellent tank, but its poor HP gets in the way. But 100 base attack is nothing to laugh at.

 

[darkrai491master]

okay think you for not trying to be rude but how about swithcing ninjask with milotic or anyone who knows rain dance and have electivire learn thunder it raises the accuracy and with milotic if its raining it powers up water type moves and heals some hp and if you use aqua ring it makes hp and give it leftovers and then teach it a strong water type move then that would be a good combo

That post is a mess. Periods were created for a reason. And thunderdance fails. ALWAYS. Only kyuber can pull it off. Thunderbolt>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Thunder, in almost every circumstance. Rain dance on milotic is a waste anyways. Only swift swimmers and ludi should carry rain dance, and probably a few others I'm forgetting.

Ok, well i chose Ninjask there because i don't really need a BPer on Alakazam, well i'll look for some other BPers then

well how's this then

Ninjask @ Pinch Berry
Jolly Nature
Trait: Speed boost
EVS: 252 Speed/ 128 Def/ 128 Sp. Def
Moves:
Protect
Substitute
Swords Dance
Batton Pass



Electrive @ Expert Belt
Adament Nature
Trait: Motor Drive
EVS: 252 Attack/ 252 Speed/ 6 HP
Moves:
Thunder Punch
Cross Chop
EQ
Ice Punch


Alakazam @ ???
Timid Nature
Trait: Synchronize
EVS: 252 Speed/ 252 Sp. Atk/ 6 HP
Moves:
Psychic
Focus Blast
Shadow Ball
Energy Ball

Ok, so i've made a couple of changes, but i'll see if i can find another BPer, but i like ninjask because of it's trait, about 4 turns of protect and sub, with a swords dance in there, makes Electrive even stronger

You REALLY don't need ninjask. I recommend maybe gyarados. People will want to zap it down, then just switch into Vire to activate motor drive, and now it has speed. Gyara is a powerhouse itself. It has swept many teams for me, just watch out for zapdos. that's what Vire is for though.

Gyarados?
That might be a good idea, with a 4x weakness to electric, people with want to zap to, so if i predict right, then i switch in Electrive, gets speed, sounds good, do you recommend a moveset?

Ok, i'll go with that guy, well thanks for the help

 

[Anti]

Ice Fang for coverage, waterfall for power, and stone edge gives you both, but I prefer ice fang, so the dragons don't laugh at you. And no problem. I'm stressed, nice to be appreciated somewhere lol
