NB [UU] team..

[Ice demon]

Well i plan on going on NB with this thing.......but before i shame myself too much let me run it by my good pals here at GB strategy section.....



Poliwrath[adamant]
EVs - Def, Att, Sp
belly drum
HP ghost
brick break
earthquake

well he would be a nice Calmcune destroyer if i see one ^_^...with water absorb and all.........

Nidoking[adamant]
EVs - Att, Def, SpAtt
earthquake
shadow bal/sludge bomb
fire blast/thunderbolt
taunt

He's just my weaker version of T-Tar [with a few moves missing]

Kabutops[jolly]@ salac berry
EVs - Att, Def, Sp
flail
substitute
rock slide
sword dance

Now here is a pokemon that i really don't think needs to be under this catagory..

Sceptile[timid]@ petaya berry
EVs - Sp, Att, SpAtt
focus puch
leaf blade
substitute
leech seed

The pokemon is an OU but the moveset borders between UU and NU........It works - Believe me........especially against stupid blissey and Regi Ice
but i still have a problem with the EVs.


Blastoise[modest]@ leftovers
EVs - Def, hp, SpAtt
yawn
roar
ice beam
surf

Not too sure if he is UU but i'll see..................

Grumpig[modest]@ leftovers
EVs - SpDef, hp, SpAtt
calm mind
substitute
HP fire
psychic

Hah good 200 days when he was the only psychic with sub...............now he's just another face in the crowd.

Good team, very good, I don't see anything wrong with it.
Keep up the good work, Ice Demon, you are the best move dealer I've ever seen!

 

[Xilion_Sword90]

Kabutops: Why not give him Rain Dance for 600+ Speed with Swift Swim? Then you can put Hydro Pump on Poliwrath too.

Just curious, why Roar and not Haze on Blastoise?

 

[Frostweaver]

Sceptile is STILL OU this way. As long as the thing has...
-leech seed, or substitute, or special attacks
It's still OU. Unless you make a Sceptile with earthquake/aerial ace/focus punch/sub, (aka all physical without a SINGLE special) then it'll be UU.

Poliwrath- the problem with wrath is that it's very predictable in terms of moves. Calmcune doesn't have ice beam all the time and sometimes have HP Grass, so watch for that. I'll probably dump belly drum for hypnosis... it's a bit too slow to survive more than fainting one Pokemon after one drum.

Nidoking- don't bother with sp.atk as it's no longer GSC. Take off the special attack and make Nidoking take both sludge bomb and shadow ball (he can learn shadow ball? hmm I didn't remember that). Also may want to consider Megahorn.

Kabutops- take off def EV for speed as an option.

Blastoise- definitely UU, and definitely very difficult to use without dying XD;; As for Xillion Sword's question, roar as its use over haze at times. It breaks sub which is something haze cannot do. It also forces them out completely so they can't start setting up all over again.

Grumpig- lol my exact moveset for the tourney, except I used extrasensory instead.

Ok glad frostweaver answered the roar question......

Oh no i never so a Calmcune with HP grass!!
And with poli's below average SpDef he really may be of no use there....

Frostweaver the Att sceptile i have seen around is Sword dance and then attack away....
blah i don't like it.
I guess ur rite though.
Sub/seed/leaf blade still makes it a OU

oh well........

Nidoking- don't bother with sp.atk as it's no longer GSC. Take off the special attack and make Nidoking take both sludge bomb and shadow ball (he can learn shadow ball? hmm I didn't remember that). Also may want to consider Megahorn.

Well NB pokedex said it can learn shadow ball........
may be wrong
i don't know..........
Yes Megahorn seems like a good option if shadow ball is illegal.....
