New Team Idea - RMT it

[StrickeN]

Just a team idea I have, that I think can work. Works decently on Shoddy but needs some work

Jirachi @ Choice Scarf
252 Attack / 176 Speed / 80 HP
Jolly
Trick
Twave
Stealth Rock
Iron Head

My evil evil jirachi. Has never failed to catch an opponent off guard, destroying leads and ruining any fun they wanted to have. Trick -> Twave combo is almost guarenteed 2 pokemon screwed, then I can get my rocks up. Iron Head is for the wav'ed opponents who want to stay in and play hax war.

Infernape @ Life Orb
26 Attack / 252 Sp. Att / 230 Speed
Naive
HP Ice
Fire Blast
Close Combat
Grass Knot

Standard MixNape

Latias @ Leftovers
112 HP / 200 Sp. Def / 124 Defense / 74 Sp. Att
Bold
Calm Mind
Dragon Pulse
Recover
Surf

A set I'm working on for latias. Set allows me to live any ice beam, just about any Ice PUnch, Bold to live some Pursuits from the likes of Scizor and such. Rest is self explanatory

Vaporeon @ Choice Specs
Bold
196 Defense / 252 Sp. Att / 60 HP
Surf
HP elec
Ice Beam
Wish

I wanted a defensivish wall that could do some moderate sweeping. Requires a LOT of prediction but all ina ll is pretty powerful.

Azelf @ Choice Band
252 Attack / 252 Speed / 4 HP
Adament
U turn
Zen Headbutt
Ice Punch
Tpunch

Pretty explanatory lead. Adament because I think zelf is fast enough as is.

Porygon-Z @ Life Orb
252 sp. att 252 speed 4 HP
Modest
Tri attack
thunder bolt
ice beam
nasty plot

Pory does almost nothing for my team, but i'm a little stuck on who would make a suitable spot. He's helped in a few situations, sweeping opponents almost entire teams.

Just let me know guys thanks.

cute.

Infernape @ Life Orb

SD Ape is better at this point in the metagame imo.


Latias @ Leftovers
112 HP / 200 Sp. Def / 124 Defense / 74 Sp. Att
Bold
Calm Mind
Dragon Pulse
Recover

I hate how people try to make this overly defensive when calm minding, it NEEDS all the offense it can get on CM sets to get past scizor and tar. It also lols at ice beams after a calm mind anyway so the s-def evs are really meh. You also wont sweep with no speed. So just use max speed and sp.att @Life Orb imo.

Vaporeon @ Choice Specs
Bold
196 Defense / 252 Sp. Att / 60 HP
Surf
HP elec
Ice Beam
Wish

k.

Azelf @ Choice Band
252 Attack / 252 Speed / 4 HP
Jolly
U turn
Zen Headbutt
Ice Punch / Explosion
Fire Punch

Its really not already fast enough.

Fire Punch or you are Scizor/Zong etc bait, in addition Zen Headbutt 2HKO's Gyarados after SR anyway even after intimidate so no need for t-punch.


Porygon-Z @ Life Orb
252 sp. att 252 speed 4 HP
Modest
Tri attack
thunder bolt
ice beam
nasty plot

Sub and Salac P-Z is better since it can actually beat those idiots who seem to think bliss is content without S-Toss, and you know, can actually sweep.

Decent lead and then everything else on your team just gets massacred by the metagame. The frailty, lack of resistances and general slowness doesnt help either.

You fail to stop Mence, Tar, Scizor, Lucario (Ape takes ~80 from a SD LO BP Btw), Agiligross (Each can just DD or SD /w.e up and then just lol) etc, even Blissey and Cress can cripple your whole team.

Jirachi can revenge the first few if you alter your set slightly to an offensive scarfer with like Iron head/Ice Punch/Fire Punch/SR @ jolly max speed and att @ scarf. Still one scarfer to revenge a whole host of threats is kinda meh.

Still then you lack things which every team should have, a way to deal with Lucario and other fighters sufficiently, something to deal with or in the very least doesnt care about t-wave and it just lacks ways to deal with things well etc.

This might help alot with threats you should cover. (All of them are kinda impossible to cover, but you can deal with a good 80-90% of them).


Sorry to sound mean/harsh, but yeah its for your own benefit at the end of the day. Tl;Dr needs a massive revamp lol



On a side note, its nice to see you back.

 

[StrickeN]

Yeah, well I was just trying some different ideas.

I've only had a week or 2 back into Wifi battling so I'm a little behind on standards :p

So thanks for the truth, I'd rather have some positive influence towards a new team than have banter which is useless to me.

I'll check up on the new threats list (which i dont' know how i over looked) and update team list.

 

[dark_seeker]

if you dont like the idea of porygon-z than you could replace him for weavile.
the #1 revenge killer in my heart.
That gives you a reliable revenge killer.

Weavile @ Choice Band
Jolly
40 hp/252 att/216 spd
~Ice Shrad
~Pursuit
~Night Slash
~Brick Break

The ev spread alows you to beat alakazam and Dugtrio.Uncommon but still a nice bonus.

This also server as a latias revenge killer.

 

[StrickeN]

I'm a well known Weavile user.

but with the metagame going as it is, getting weavile in safely? Just wont' happen.

Things that weavile used to trump can now fire back with a OHKO if fought.
